Question of the Day

what are we to make of the influx of sabermetric basketball analysis (moneyball for hoops) ? is it valuable information ? can it have the same impact that it has had in baseball ?

Still Searching for Benny Anders

kicking back, drinking a whiskey sour and thinking about different ways that the Knicks can trade Carmelo Anthony that would meet with the satisfaction of their starstruck owner. Random thoughts, I know I'm in the minority here but why do we basketball fans have to suffer the indignity of having Charles Barkley as a studio host/NBA spokesperson ? It wouldn't bother me so much that he's a complete blowhard but the fact that he seems to put so little effort and study into the players/teams in the league is utterly disrespectful. Think of the forum that he's given, not to mention the salary, and he makes so little effort to offer any concise and cognitive analysis of the current NBA. Just bluster, hyperbole and shitty jokes. Don't we basketball fans deserve better ???
