The New Jersey Nets, like the Knicks, were players during this off-season’s fiasco. With Russian billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov purchasing the majority of the team, the Nets’ had limitless funds at their disposal and a banner with the most unusual pairing of Prokhorov and rapped Jay-Z hanging across the street from Madison Square Garden. They [...]

The New York Knicks waited, waited and waited some more. They went through three years of treacherous basketball, excusing it to an extent, because they had faith that LeBron James would ditch the Cleveland Cavaliers this off-season and make Madison Square Garden his new home. And after all those years of pitiful basketball, the Knicks were [...] The Boston Celtics played a joke on everybody in the NBA last season. While the Cleveland Cavaliers were taking the regular season win crown, the Orlando Magic were securing the two seed and everybody was questioning whether or not the C’s were going to make it past their first round series, Boston was coasting [...] The theory was good. The idea that the Princeton offense would fit the bevy of athletes that the 76ers had was a good one.  Eddie Jordan’s vision of Andre Iguodala receiving backdoor lobs from Jrue Holiday and vice versa was engenius. The execution, well, that was a completely different story.

Interesting to see how this team develops going forward. Will they still commit to the fast-paced offensive style that was their trademark under Nellie or will they go in a new direction? Monta [...] Golden State Warriors head coach Don Nelson will resign from his position soon, according to ESPN’s Marc Stein. Keith Smart will take over for now. Here are today’s headline: A day after I talk about Andrew Bynum‘s potential all-star campaign this season, we get word for NBA.com’s David Aldridge that he will miss all pre-season games and that he hasn’t been cleared for any basketball activities. I wouldn’t mind if he sat out the entire pre-season to [...] The common perception of Vince Carter‘s season with the Orlando Magic last year was that it was a failure. After reaching the 2009 NBA Finals with Hedo Turkoglu as the primary wing scorer, the Magic went down a notch, losing in the Eastern Conference Finals to the Boston Celtics.
