I have been reading a few articles that have begged the question is Strasburg an All-Star? I believe that this is completely ridiculous and blown way out of proportion. First of all, if Strasburg was on a team out on the West coast, you have to know that the media coverage would be about half [...]

The two biggest Chinese players are making big news today in the NBA.  Yi Jianlian and $3 million is about to get traded from the New Jersey Nets to the Washington Wizards for Quinton Ross and the Wizards’ trade exception.  And Yao Ming has decided to not opt out of his contract.  Both smart moves;  the [...]

Here we are, almost at July 1, 2010, the start of NBA free agency, or as some are calling it the most anticipated free agency period of our lifetimes.  While we don’t yet know what will happen, here are a few things I can say with confidence won’t be happening as we finally find out [...]

I remember back when Vladimir Guerrero was a free agent just a few months ago telling everyone at Cloud Fantasy Headquarters that the Giants need to sign this guy.  And now he is a leading vote getter for the All-Star Game.  A .327 batting average, 15 home runs, 48 runs and 60 runs batted in by mid [...]

When Mikhail Prokhorov officially became the owner of the New Jersey Nets this spring he proclaimed that the Nets would win the NBA championship in 5 years.  With the team having the #3 pick in the 2010 NBA draft, how the franchise handled the draft and that pick would go a long way towards Prokohorov’s [...]

The NBA Draft is one of my Fav5 days of the year for all of the excitement of the unknown it brings.  Yesterday, the Draft was used as a mere stepping stone for some teams to clear cap space for the 2010 Free Agent Class.  John Wall went number one as predicated and we got [...]

Today is the big day, at 4pm WST, the NBA Draft will take place live from Madison Square Garden.  John Wall will get drafted first real quick.  The big question is who will draft bad boy DeMarcus Cousins.  I have been hearing he will get drafted anywhere between 2nd and 6th depending on who is sacred the least of his personality.  Then [...]

“My first choice is to be in New Orleans.  I just want to make sure we’re committed to winning.  If we’re not committed to winning and trying to get better so we can contend with the Lakers, the Celtics and all these other top teams, then I’m open to being traded.  I’m fine with staying [...]

So the most boring guy in the NBA,  Kevin Durant, is the new cover boy of NBA Elite 11 (the relaunch of NBA Live).  I would have picked the most exciting guy to be the cover boy or at least one of them.  Lebron James has never been on the cover of a video game, he [...]

Charles F. Gardner of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel has reported, “The Bucks completed a trade late Tuesday afternoon to acquire forward Corey Maggette from the Golden State Warriors in exchange for guard Charlie Bell and center Dan Gadzuric, according to basketball sources.”  This is an awesome trade for the Bucks especially if John Salmons leaves [...]
