The Pistons Sign Jason Maxie Maxiell Fours $20Million

Thursday Oct 30, 2008

Piston Reserve Jason Maxiell Get’s $20 million

Many might say who is Jason Maxiell what has he done. Well he’s going to be a major key to the Pistons success this year and I’m glad that got this guy for four more years.  He’s improved every year since he’s been the league.  The only draw back is that he’s under size,but when you think about it Ben Wallace was under size and we have all seen what has done in his prime years with the Pistons.  Also watch my video to get my clear point of view on why Jason Maxiell was good to sure up with his multi-million dollar deal or click here for more on the story

Paul Pierce ended the game with 27pts. 3 reb. and 4 ast.  Lebron James ended the game with 22 pts. 7 reb. in Cavs first lost of the year.

The Portland Trail Blazers got great play out of Travis Outlaw he finished with 18,but the suprise of the came from Blazer Rudy Fernandez who finished with 16 pts.  He was aggressive going to the basket and hit open shots.

Does Andrew Bynum Make The Lakers Favorites!!

Tuesday Oct 28, 2008

Andrew Bynum Return Has Lakers Favorites To Win It All

Last summer about 4 1/2 months ago the Los Angeles Lakers really needed big in the middle to help them win a championship since the Kobe Shaq era. Well that was last year and and that big I was talking about was Andrew Bynum. Many feel if Bynum was health the Los Angeles Lakers would have gave the Boston Celtics a run for their money. Andrew Bynum avg. 13.1 pts. 10.8 reb. and 1.7 ast. before his injury. The Lakers could have used those numbers last summer. Time will tell I can’t wait to see Andrew Bynum and the Los Angeles Lakers get back to the championship.

The New York Knicks Waive Patrick Ewing Jr.

Tuesday Oct 28, 2008

Huge Mistake On The New York Knicks Part!!

 

Besides the Detroit Pistons the New York Knicks has been one of my favorite teams. It was a sad day for Patrick Ewing Jr. fans yesterday. The club (New York Knicks) cut Ewing Jr. to finalize their team roster. They kept NBA journeyman Anthony Roberson because they felt he could help them out with shooting. I have nothing against that,but all I have to say is Patrick Ewing Jr. is an all-around player and could have them in many ways. He ( Ewing Jr.) will find his niche in the NBA he has a lot to offer team that needs his skill sets.

Kobe Bryant Day To Day Greg Oden Gets Double Double & Larry Hughes Hurt!!

Thursday Oct 23, 2008

Kobe Bryant A.K.A. Black Momba Is Day To Day!!

Lakers fans got a huge scare a couple night when Kobe Bryant hyper extended his knee maybe Nike should make him some better hyper dunks (JK). Kobe will be day to day and might play today against the Charlotte Bobcats the team he tweaked his knee against acouple nights ago. I’m Black Momba will playing tonight!!

Larry Hughes Hurt Again!!

It seems NBA veteran Larry Hughes was bit by the injury bug again last night while diving for a loose ball against the Timberwolves. This not good news for the Bulls because they need to complement the young point guard Derek Rose. Reports came out today saying Larry Hughes might have a dislocated elbow. Stay tuned on this one Bulls fans Mr. Rose will have grow up quick !

Greg Oden Get’s A Double-Double!!

Big Greg Oden got a double-double against the L.A. Clippers last night. Big Greg seems like he’s getting his playing leg’s under him. I really hope this double-double gives a good indication on what’s to come from the Portland big fella. I still vow til this day that Greg Oden will be rookie of year at the end of the NBA season. He’s big and strong and saw what the NBA has to offer while his fellow rookies where still in college. I can’t wait see him in the playoffs and hold up that rookie of year thropy.

Hornets Chris Paul In Mid-Season Form!!

Wednesday Oct 22, 2008

Hornets Undefeated In Preseason!!

We all know that preseason does not give a true measure on how a team will perform during basketball season. The New Orleans Hornets are undefeated and I must say the big reason is Chris Paul.  He’s scorched teams through the preseason avg. 21.1 pts, 11.8 and 2.7 steals a game.  I think he’s still mad that he did not get the MVP.

Chris Paul On A Mission!

We saw what Chris Paul did last year throughout the seasson in the playoffs and with the Olympic Gold Medal Run.  All that is good and dandy but I feel his mission this year is to establish himself as a premier player from know on.  He was second to Kobe Bryant last year for MVP and was few buckets away for the western conference finals.  Right now he’s in mid-season form with MVP type numbers that’s right tells me he’s a man on a mission.


The Leader!!

Some say leaders are born and some say leaders are made through struggle.  I think Chris Paul fits in both categories.  The summer of 2007 Chris found himself on outside looking in as the US won the tournament of Americas to qualify for the 2008 Olympics.  He was also nursing an ankle injury, but there were still question can he lead a team or is he big enough.  Well in 2007-08 NBA season he proved that he can lead a team and still play against the giants.  Chris Paul is a born leader the struggle was only minor in his mind.

Are The Charlotte Bobcats A Dysfuctnional Franchise? My Letter To The Bobcats

Tuesday Oct 21, 2008

Where Hell Is Micheal Jordan?

Hey basketball junkies it’s your man Basketball Tee and it seems that Bobcat’s is looking for it’s leader. MJ where are you your team needs you. I know you hung your JAY’s(Air Jordans) up, but your new franchise needs you man. There reports that state that you are a asbsentee exec. You have been in charge for two years and got the players you want so it’s time for some results MJ. Word is that you don’t care and for the last two years you schedule games in Superbowls Cities because everyone’s know MJ does not miss Superbowl weekend. It’s time for team unity Micheal Jordan and to be honest it’s start with you!!

Larry LB Brown Back To His Old Ways!!

Larry Larry word is that you want to overhaul your roster because you don’t like the players you have. Wow this is a redundant theme you have Sir. You tried to under mind one best GM’s in game Joe Dumars with the Pistons and meet your fate. The crusade continued with the Knicks and Isiah Thomas and last but not least you drag your destructive behavior into the struggling Charlotte Franchise. If MJ and Rod Higgins had any BALLS they would have drafted Brook Lopez with 9th pick the player that you guy’s needed. So you draft a midget point gaurd because you’re not happy Felton Spencer who is still a good up and coming player that can still produce. In my opinion that was a bad move GM Brown!!

Team For Sale!!

Bob Johnson made history when he became the first African-American majority owner of a sports franchise,but over the last couple years it has not been a great ride for the Franchise or Mr. Johnson. The Team owner has lost tens and millions of dollars and people around the NBA have said he was shopping the team around. Insiders feel Bob Johnson has lost touch with his team and feel that he no clue on how to run an NBA franchise. In a recent interview he denied that was selling the team and he dedicated to his franchise. For more information about the Charlotte Bobcats read Yahoo Sports report by Adrian Wojnarowski HERE!

Monday Oct 20, 2008

My Basketball Jones

Hello Basketball Fans it’s your boy Basketball Tee and I’m so happy that basketball season is about to start.  Since the last basketball game of the Olympics I have been in somewhat of a withdrawal from basketball.  I was in some serious pain for some real live action, but I only re-runs on ESPN Classic watching Magic and Bird beat up on each other. My Jones is back October is here and that means pre-seasons basketball and happy until the season starts!!

FC Barcelona

This past weekend FC Barcelona was here in the US playing games against the Lakers,Clippers and Raptors.  The games were great very competitive.  I must say Spain has some real good basketball over there.  Hell we don’t even need to look that far they have players in NBA now with the Gasol brothers Jose Calderon of Raptors.  FC Barcelona has sent many players from their organization to play in the NBA.

The Greg Oden Report

Slowly but steady Greg Oden is getting his play legs back and is looking so far in the preseason and he is still my pick for the rookie of year (ROY).  Greg will add much needed defense for the Portland Trail Blazers in the paint and rebounding.  I feel he’s going to give the Portland fans a treat this season with a playoff berth.
