Check out this item from the ESPN.com NBA Rumors page. Noah ready to bang, ESPN? Really?! Of course, look at Joakim's zany smile...maybe he really is ready to bang! Seriously.
Mucho thanks to Basketbawful reader Garron for the head's up.

BadDave- sorry for the late reply to your question from a previous post. I'm surviving; things could be much worse. Thank god October is here and baseball will soon cease to eat up 90% of the sports news media.
If the NBA says that he didn't change the outcome of games while he was betting on them, can we really trust the NBA to tell us the truth?
But where does that leave small-market teams (besides the pet project in Klahma City)? Those excerpts came out a day before Kevin Johnson and the rest of Sacramento's political leadership started clamoring yet again for a new barn for the Maloofs...
CAPTCHA: "filitio" wow.
this post would be perfect
let me know what i can do to help, i wouldnt call myslef a twitter expert, but i do consider myself best friends with ron artest and chad ochocinco b/c of it
Right now...as announced, they're "sponsored by nobody." Say, can we Bawful readers and contributors pitch in to get Stat Of The Night presented by THE only blog in basketball that matters? :D (well the only one besides By The Horns. :P )
The Spurs looked real old out there tonight, shockingly so in fact. I know it's early and they're a work in progress and all that, but if they're gonna be competing with the Lakers for the West crown I think they could be facing a big disadvantage in the race for the number 1 seed. That's especially true since LA has about the easiest schedule ever for the first six weeks of the season. Methinks that San Antonio will probably playing catchup all year to try to get that top spot, and in all likelihood the Lakers will have HCA in the WCF against the Spurs if those two teams meet there. I'm a Laker fan though, so there's a very slim chance that I might be just a teeny bit biased :)

"When we had Mark Eaton and Greg Ostertag we were one of the top three or four (teams) all the time in defense, in field-goal percentage. Since we don't have shot-blocking, that's dropped off tremendously. "That has a lot to do with winning games and protecting the paint," Sloan added. "If you don't have shot blockers, you have to protect it with your body."
Is it just me though, or do the Spurs seem like they have a case of "too many weapons, not enough impact from any particular weapon"? I've been hearing all preseason about how deep the Spurs are and how they'll always have weapons at every position to hurt you, but it still feels like ultimately, games would come down to whether the Big Three have good games or not. I know Jefferson isn't going to be shooting this horribly for the rest of the season, but I just can't see him as more than a 12, 14 point scorer unless it starts cutting significantly into Parker or Ginobili's performance.
Reasonable and logical observations tend to make one biased.
Barring injuries, of course, the Lakers should steamroll to 1st place in the west.
"...can we really trust the NBA to tell us the truth?"
No, and if any one believe Donaghy was some lone wolf I would like to interest them in buying my perpetual motion machine.
With that said, that doesn't equal up to the N.B.A. "fixing" games either.
Chris - do the homework. What would the damage on that be?
AK Dave - Law school is easy. Just write down the OPPOSITE of what makes sense and defending it with circular arguments and unrelated citations.
This is a book I must read. And you better believe I'm not giving a cent to this bastard, I will pirate the fuck out of it and openly encourage others to do so.
If/when I get my hands on some copy, expect a lengthy review.

It's $2.50 per thousand page views, so for us researching Mario West and Big Country Bryant Reeves, this should not be an issue of cost. :P
And Cortez, I'm actually in the market for a perpetual motion machine. You see, I'm the equipment manager for the Cleveland Cavaliers, and we are looking at everything we can to get our offense going. Please get back to me as soon as you can!
P.S. Do you have anything that will turn Shaq and Big Z into something other than 7-foot dinosaurs that can't rotate on defense? A transmogrifier ray would be just the ticket, thanks again!

hope that was suppose to be humor
because law school was 2x as hard as my mba
