U of L’s former future superduperpointguard Sebastian Telfair, the baller whom The Rick chose over Rajon Rondo, now resides in NBA purgatory.
The Minnesota Timberwolves, who just picked 14 fresh guards from home and abroad in the NBA draft, have traded the once upon a time SI cover boy/ NY prep legend come NBA never was [...]

Imagine my surprise. The Film Babe and I are sitting in a hotel room after dinner with friends in Chicago last Thursday. I turn on the draft to check on how the local trio fared.
My sweetie says, “This is kind of fun to watch.” Of course she’s got a crush on Jay [...]
Understand from the get go: I pay close attention to the NBA only during the playoffs. After college hoops is gone for the season. I do pay mild attention to the draft because the nature of the game. With only five players on the floor at a time — if you don’t count the zebras [...]

Word now is that Isiah Thomas and Florida International no longer have prep pariah Lance Stephenson in their sights.

Okay so my Red Wings will have to go to a Game 7 to win their second Stanley Cup in a row. They lost tonight, 2-1, to Pittsburgh. Credit defenseman Rob Scuderi for saving the win. During Detroit’s last minute empty goal anschluss, Scuderi aided Fleury in goal by stopping three shots, one with his [...]
First the pucks update. Detroit survived another power play, and the teams remain scoreless after one.
There is not a doubt in my mind that the Kobes shall win the NBA title. Even with the next three games in Orlando against a Magic squad that has proven resilient all post-season.
Had Orlands stolen Game Two, had [...]
Oh you especially clever sports fans, you know it’s a trick question.
But a fascinating one nonetheless. The Red Wings’ Lidstrom is the best defenseman in the NHL and five time Stanley Cup champ. On none of which trophy carrying squads, might I add, was he aided by Shaq. Yuk yuk.
Could he stop the most potent [...]
Today’s sports debate du jour — to go redundant on ya from the get go — has a particularly local resonance.
Courtney Lee, now of the Orlando Where’s the Magic, formerly a Western Kentucky Hilltopper — as if you haven’t already heard — missed a layup at the end of regulation that would have completed the [...]
That’s the Thursday night conundrum, isn’t it?
At least for those who recognize that NHL hockey playoffs are the most compelling in sports.
For those of us legitimately torn, we gotta figure out what to do? Picture in Picture? Set up two TVs side by side and run a cable cord in from the other room? Watch [...]
