Hey Kobe Bryant. Here is your official, public invitation to come ball at my local Jewish Community Center (JCC). You know, in case you get tired of the one in Irvine, California. I am heading to Memphis, Tennessee tonight to host the University of Memphis’ first Agent Day with Jason Belzer tomorrow. We will also […]
Brandon Knight surprised a lot of people when he declared that he would keep his name in the 2011 NBA Draft. Knight is a very smart, talented basketball player, but many believe there is still a lot of room for Knight to develop as a true point guard. Even with that in mind, Knight is […]
Chicago summers bring music, movies (Transformers 3 has taken over), and of course, sports. It’s been awhile since the last time I wrote an entry, and I apologize for the longer post, but a lot has been going on. First, the Blackhawks championship rally was exactly what it looked like on T.V.: (picture I took […]
There are some phrases an NBA organization never wants to hear, and “It’s time to clean house” is one of the worst. Unfortunately, the Chicago Bulls are dangerously approaching this breaking point. After an incredible postseason fight in last year’s playoffs against the Boston Celtics, many saw the Bulls as a young group ready to […]
The NCAA’s agenda in certain situations involving schools and athletes is certainly questionable.

NCAA allegations of major violations by the men’s basketball program at Memphis during former coach John Calipari’s tenure surfaced last Wednesday. The charges against the Memphis Tigers include “knowing fraudulence or misconduct” on SAT exam by a player. The NCAA’s letter to the school, which was sent on January 16, claims that an unknown person […]
The Boston Celtics are getting a run for their money in the first round of this year’s NBA Playoffs. They should have learned to take their first round opponents seriously after barely beating the Hawks in the first round last year. Maybe it’s just that they did not expect the #1 overall pick from this […]
It has been a week since ESPN delightfully covered the 2008 NBA Draft. Adam Silver has never had as many people cheer for him in his life (if you did not see the second round, then you have no idea what I am talking about). We have had enough time to digest the plethora of […]
Reminding all of you in the Chicago area to listen in on my interview with The Region Buzz Sports Show (1230AM WJOB) at 6 p.m. CST. For everyone else, make sure to check it out when it is eventually posted up here. Now on to the NBA Draft Day links: Derrick Rose is going to […]
