Just before all the Free Agents signings in the NBA, a friend and an ardent NBA fan said “the NBA in the summer is more exciting than the regular season”. Hello.
The NBA Summer League recently ended with a few things self evident; Lonzo Ball has a chance to be a special player and his Daddy is no dummy. His son has not played one NBA regular season game and he is already a household word. One TV Analyst said it was the “golden age of […]
With the absences of urgency in Phoenix and most of the NBA, Eric Bledsoe, after seven years of pro- basketball has decided he wants to win. Yup, that was what was reported in the Arizona Republic, Monday, July 24,2017. Playing sports, I thought you always tried to win , guess he didn’t get that message […]
The “Process” servers are up in arms in Philly. Neither Dario Saric or Joel Enbiid, poster boys, for the “Process” won the “Rookie of the Year”.

This little tidbit from radio and TV talk show host, Tony Kornheiser; what do Markelle Fultz and Ben Simmons both #1 NBA draft picks have in common?
Answer: both their college coaches were fired.
Drum roll: my 2017 sleeper draft picks are: Josh Hart, Villanova and Ike Anigbogu, UCLA. Note, Ike being a freshmen and with limited […]
The analytic draft ” circle jerk” ends tomorrow in Brooklyn, New York, where the 2017 NBA College Draft will take place. To think that 18 and 19 year old kids with one or two years of college ball are going to come into the NBA and be an immediate impact player is delusional. But, it […]
