What a **** idiot man.

How this guy continues to get burn while a guy like MKG keeps getting hit with stupid injuries just proves how unfair the world is

A movie is being made about Muggsy's life.

Butler guarantees he'll be back during season. No regrets about playing in Denver but admitted trainer questioned him whether he was ready

league talking about putting sponsor ads on jerseys.

who would be our sponsor? I would assume Jordan Brand/Nike.

Logical CHA sponsors: Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Duke Energy, NASCAR, Bojangles (hell yeah)

MKG's wingspan to height ratio 1.07:1 is slightly better than NBA average. Marvin Williams is an impressive 1.10:1.

With no draft picks and limited trade assets the Nets are focusing their GM search on guys with track records of finding value overseas, such as Bryan Colangelo, cited for discovering Jamario Moon, Linus Klieza and Jorge Garbajosa. Colangelo was in my graduating class at Cornell. Everybody knew he was on the the bball team because of who his Dad was, and Colangelo swaggered around campus as you would expect the privileged scion of a rich NBA Gm would. I'm always surprised at BC's successes, cuz I just think of him as a preening college student.

Can't read the article, but Bismack is 1.12:1. Jason Maxiell has to be way up there too. Probably Rondo as well.

I think we've discussed this before, but you went to Cornell? Hell yeah. Impressive. That's the most beautiful college campus I've ever seen. Ithaca is Gorges. Also home to the greatest Greatful Dead concert ever, 5-8-1977.

I feel terrible for him if it is a repeat of last year. If it's a chronic issue, I can't imagine he'll be able to continue his career.

oh god I just had flashbacks to that one gif circulating reddit of the chick completely destroying her knees on that machine. I hope somebody in the Bulls organization fixes that before he seriously injures himself.

Yikes, if you do use a spoiler around it.
