Rambo the force of freedom

Yo! I’m sure you’re all like: “whaaaaaat he’s talkin’ ’bout Rambo on his basketball blog?! What’s gotten into him?! Yeah, for a change I’m not gonna talk about basketball today. I mean, come on, there’s a life outside basketball! I’m sure y’all agree with that. And to tell you the truth, in the near future it’s highly likely [...]

European Basketball

Hi all! It’s been a long time since I’ve written anything here… I’d be a liar if I was saying I was pretty busy lately… I guess I was just outta inspiration. Anyway, it just dawned on me that I’ve never explained how Basketball became a real passion. Quite awkward when you write a basketball [...]

NBA comebacks bug me…

Here we are again. Once again, a former player intends to make a comeback. This trend just ticks me off! This time, it’s the former Utah Jazz player Russell who seeks to step-back on an NBA court. I don’t know what you guys think about it, but in my view it’s just ludicrous. I mean [...]

Magic Johnson faked AIDS?

Unbelievable stories pop up every now and then. But this one involving Magic Johnson’s health is far from being laughable. Actually, I kinda went off the deep end when I read about it. First of all, here are the names of the 2 infamous culprits: Chris Baker and Langdon Perry of KTLK radio in Minneapolis. Those two morons just queried [...]

Watch out for J.J. Redick!

I’ve been following J.J. Redick’s career ever since he played in College (Duke). At the time, he was downright a superstar over there. Think about it : the guy finished all-time leading scorer in Duke and the ACC, and even breaking the NCAA record for career 3 points made. He was typically a white basketball player: not very athletic, but [...]

Kemp confirms comeback rumors

Like I said in a previous post 2 weeks ago, Shawn Kemp is seriously contemplating a return on the court in Italy. It was all but a joke, besides Kemp himself confirmed it to Slam. Here’s a video of “The Reignman” talkin’ about all those rumors surrounding his future, but also about all the other issues that [...]

WNBA brawl video

The game between the L.A. Sparks and Detroit Shock was almost over last night when things just took a turn for the worse. Candace Parker and Cheryl Ford got into a brawl.  That’s the kind of thing I don’t like to see on a sports ground, but… when a game gets tough physically, well that’s the way the [...]

Darius Miles’ comeback?

EDIT August 23th Darius Miles made it. He enticed the Boston Celtics, and is getting a non-guaranteed contract with the C’s.                                                   **************** Every now and then, a former NBA player tries to come-back in NBA. Well, it just ticks me off… Last summer, it was Allan Houston who tried to get a spot in New [...]

Lamar Odom

I just wanna pay tribute to my favorite player Lamar Odom, and say how fed up I am of all those trade rumors involving Odom. If I still love the game, it’s mainly because of him and his unselfish game. Nowadays, the NBA is overloaded by players who are physicaly gifted but who don’t have [...]

John Crotty

If you ain’t an NBA-addict, you’ve probably never heard of John Crotty. Crotty is a guy who played 11 years in NBA from 1992 to 2003 on several teams, including Utah, Cleveland, Miami, Portland, Seattle, Detroit, Denver. Overall he played in 477 games, which makes him a true veteran of the NBA. Most often, he was [...]
