Hello, Goran
Goodbye, Gordan
Not that anyone's surprised about him not being a Sun, mind you, but Giricek followed the M-Train to Europe (that's "money"). It's kind of like Milton in Office Space. He was never officially fired, but the glitch seemed to work itself out.
NBA teams just aren't offering Shaq-sized buttloads of money anymore. Apparently, the Sp*rs

Say this for Steve Kerr: he's knows how to make an impact. Just 14 months after assuming the mantle of Phoenix Suns' general manager and president of basketball operations, with the signing of Goran Dragic, he has remade the Suns in his own image.
Franchise-altering mega-trade? Check.
Hand-picked head coach? Check.
Sacrificing athleticism and offense for role players and defense? Check.

While it's possible he's a cockeyed optimist, Amundson doesn't look to be a [...]

I like to think I know a little something about damn near ever player in the NBA or even guys on the fringe of the league, but I don't have the foggiest idea as to who this [...]

In keeping with Sean Marks (curly golden locks), Brian Skinner (multi-colored chin hair) and Robin "LoFro" Lopez the Suns have added Lou Admonson to the not-yet-13-man-roster.
Lou did stand out for me in Vegas not only for his highly fashionable (or totally dorky) crown of the head pony-tail but also for for

You'd think an athlete eight years removed from his playing days wouldn't be the center of attention. Well Charles Barkley defies logic as he is just as big (bigger if you count his pants size) of a celebrity now as he was when he played. Sir Charles is in the news again today with two different [...]

Goran Dragic's situation is a complicated one. Different contracts, buyouts, countries and the NBA's Collective Bargaining Agreement combine for some difficulty. To help make this point and maybe even explain the mess a bit (at [...]

It’s really rare –and dangerous- when we get to talk about basketball and social problems in the same article. Part of me was telling me to leave this alone, but I just couldn’t. I want to share my thoughts on the latest news from Beijing, where the headline reads: Spanish Basketball Team poses

Surfing the interwebs today and found an interesting take on the Kobe/Shaq fued by ESPN The Mags Chuck Klosterman. He thinks Kobe and Shaq need and love to hate each other. He also seems to think Shaq may have already lost the battle by publicly bashing Kobe. Personally I think anyone who can say with a [...]

For anyone who follows the Phoenix Suns, it appeared that headed into this offseason, the number one goal for this team was to acquire a backup point guard. Someone capable of spelling the aging Steve Nash for 12 to 15 minutes per game. There's even been talk of having said backup point guard [...]

"Dancing, dancing," is what my 1.5 year old daught says as she gyrates around. I really don't know where she got it, but she wiggles her hips in ways usually only seen in rap videos. Occassionally, the missus watches MTV, but there's never any videos on there, so I'm at loss.
