Hey! Whatever Happened to Shawn Bradley?

Shawn Bradley is, and always has been, more than just astonishingly tall. An admirable citizen both on and off the court, it was hard not to appreciate the affable giant as he patrolled the paint like an extraterrestrial on a solo mission to conquer mankind, but the man was not without his critics.

Canada Dominant In Exhibition Debut

Relax Canada, the fate of your Olympic basketball bid is in good hands. At least that’s the impression fans of this year’s men’s national team walked away with after an impressive, albeit probably expected, victory over Lebanon on Monday.

Hey! Whatever Happened To BJ Armstrong?

He wasn’t Michael Jordan and he wasn’t Scottie Pippen, but if the original Chicago Bulls dynasty was to you what it was to the rest of the world, he was the next best thing.

Charlotte’s Growing Pains Continue

While the rest of the world is busy celebrating the fact that Bill Russell doesn’t have to lend out any of his hard-earned man jewellery, I decided to take the general theme of “team success, winning and overall fan satisfaction” and work backwards.

What Basketball Can Learn From The NHL

In the hallowed halls of one of downtown Toronto’s most legendary auditoriums, a particularly sport-minded buzz fills the presumably stuffy air, people in rarely-worn fancy clothes wade through huddles of fellow hockey fans searching for their seats before the curtains are drawn and the show begins. Whispers of who should win what and why occupy [...]

Dynasty in Flux - In Joe We (Still) Trust

On the eve of basketball’s final series, I sit in a dark, depressed room dealing with demons who’ve haunted me and others like me since the perennial fall of the Detroit Pistons in the Eastern Conference Finals last week.

The War of Windependence

In what has quickly become a media-fueled gong show, filled with cheap insults and unbacked claims, two familiar members of the Orlando Magic have spoken up once again in regards to their second-round match up with the Detroit Pistons.

Taming the Tameless

With all of the public beefing, needless calamity and all-out hullabaloo going on between these two teams in the media following Game 1 and then the tirelessly disputed three-pointer Chauncey Billups nailed at the end of the third quarter in Game 2, it’s hard to take a step back and look at the biggest concern [...]

Jason Maxiell Stars in “The Wrath of Bizarro”

Dwight Howard has a twinkle in his eyes and a million dollar smile capable of winning over an entire metropolis with ease. He’s tall, handsome, well-mannered and built in a mold similar to that used in the creation of Greek’s ancient gods.
