Take That, T-Wolves
Facial HairThis is me, in California's central valley, trying to look cool. I certainly felt cool. But I was in the middle of nowhere and hadn't done anything particularly cool that day.===Such is a ho-hum 100-90 win over the Timberwolves. Against a team that had nothing in the tank, had just lost...
Boston Celtics YouTube Magic: Ray Allen and Rajon Rondo
First there was LeBron's Powerade commercial, which had the epic "That's an 80 footer" line that sounded eerily similar to Dave Chappelle impersonating a white person. Just thought I'd throw that last bit out there. Of course NBA fans know the players love to mess around with deep shots, tricky...
The Return of Stop-n-Popradamus
Having pegged the Kevin Love momentum since December (but admittedly underestimating and downright neglecting his game), I once again would like to bring your attention to a quasi-prediction made about Our Beloved Puppies and Mr. Love: As has been pointed out many times before, McHale's...
More Workout Wrapups
First of all, Kevin Love was the main attraction: As for Love, Minnesota wasn't the first NBA team to bring in other big, long players to see how he dealt with that type of physicality, and Love looked nearly as good as the weather on an aesthetically pleasing Minnesota morning. "My thing when...

Center Tuesday
If Monday brought a glut of wingmen to Target Center, Tuesday will be known as the Day the Centers Came: Then on Tuesday, the Wolves will look at a slew of big men including Kevin Love, DeAndre Jordan, JaVale McGee, Alexis Ajinca and Kosta Koufos. The "including" part of that paragraph is...
Love Works Out for Memphis
From the Commercial Appeal: Love, projected to be selected in the upper half of the draft lottery, emerged as the top participant, while Dorsey more than held his own in producing the second-best workout among four big men. The six-player session also included centers DeAndre Jordan (Texas...
Learning to Love Mr. Love
As long-time readers of this blog know, I am a seer-of-the-future and I have long maintained that Kevin McHale simply won't be able to lay off young Mr. Love in the upcoming NBA Draft. As the running joke looks more and more like it has a chance to become a reality, I decided that it's high...
Stop-n-Popradamus
With the recent report from Draft Express that Kevin McHale hearts Kevin Love, I thought it was time to bring up an oldie-but-goodie: Since the mood has been set with low bars and 4th quarter collapses, I proudly present to you the top 5 players of terror--the cold sweat nightmares that...
Tuesday Bucks Notes
The organizers of the Olympic torch relay finally realized the best way to prevent protesters from getting at the flame as it makes its way to Beijing: give it to the tallest Chinese dude you can find. OK, so Yao Ming was apparently unavailable, but Yi Jianlian carried the torch without...
