According to RealGM, the Houston Rockets have reached an agreement with the Sacramento Kings to acquire Ron Artest. Rockets get: Ron RonKings get: Bobby Jackson, 1st round pick next year, probably Donte Greene and cash. Oh, I forgot to include a ticket to the draft lottery in what the Kings get. I think this is … Read more

The Knicks sent Renaldo Balkman and cash to Denver for a 2010 second round pick, Taurean Green and Bobby Jones. I think the Knicks were just helping the Nuggets shed some cap. I guess some of these guards have potential, but I don’t think it’s enough to pat Donnie Walsh on the back. Walsh has … Read more

Team USA did what I thought they would and beat Canada big time, 120-65. The first quarter was close, but team USA cruised the rest of the way. I was most impressed by how good DWade looked, he looks great, no hesitation when he went up for a nice dunk. I think that once the … Read more

The free agents currently available seem to all be interested in Europe now. Sasha Vujacic is threatening to go to Europe if he doesn’t get about $5 million a year. Pretty soon we might as well take every guy on the market and ask if they want to go to Europe (Josh Smith next?). I … Read more

How bad will Canada lose tomorrow nights exhibition against the US (8pm Eastern, ESPN)? I’m not sure how hard the US will play, but Canada failed to make this years Olympics (they haven’t since 2000, actually) and everyone knows the US wants to prove the doubters wrong.

Yep, it happened again. Another brawl at the Palace, only this time it’s a WNBA brawl. If you haven’t seen it already, here’s a video of the fight and some breakdowns of what happened: This is, of course, terrible for not just the WNBA, but also the NBA (the NBA is already considered somewhat dirty … Read more

Oh, the East is rising, what are we going to do about the one team that really improved itself, so far (the Sixers)? The New Jersey Nets picked in the lottery this year, but they have made some nice moves that may get them back in contention. You look at the nucleus that they have … Read more

The Mavericks let injury ridden Darius Miles workout for them. If he signs anywhere and plays in 10 or more games, the Blazers owe him a nine million dollar salary. That begs the question, what does Blazers GM Kevin Pritchard do about it? We can speculate how much interest the Mavs have, but I think … Read more

The Magic have been adding players to the back court and I think it means a trade is imminent. They signed Anthony Johnson, drafted Courtney Lee and seem to be loaded at the one and two spots. I’m going to assume they are not going to resign Carlos Arroyo and Keyon Dooling, seeing as Johnson … Read more
