NBA Coast to Coast Ranks the Top 10 Single Season Teams of All-Time

Wilt Chamberlain insisted that this was the most talented team he ever played on and, considering that he was flanked by two other Top 50 players (Hal Greer and Billy Cunningham) plus Chet Walker (who should be in the Hall of Fame) and Luk...

No Bumbling Allowed: That's What NBA Stands For This Season
Original at gregeno (Blogspot)
• Wed, Dec 17
By noreply@blogger.com (Greg Eno) When the number of NBA coaches who've been canned before Christmas starts to approach the number of teams Larry Brown has helmed, then you know something freakish is going on. 1. Eddie Jordan, Washington Wizards 2. Maurice Cheeks, Philadelphia 76ers 3. Sam Mitchell, Toronto Raptors 4. PJ Carlesimo, Oklahoma City Thunder 5. Randy Wittman, Minnesota T-Wolves 6. Theus, Sacramento So who'll be the next NBA coach to be unemployed? It's assumed that there'll be a moratorium until after the holidays, giving us some time to mull it over. My guess? Mike Dunleavy of the LA Clippers. His teams have been getting progressively worse over the past few seasons. Just a hunch. [read the full post]

By David Friedman Before the game, TNT analysts Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith critiqued Iverson's game by saying that even though he puts up decent assists numbers he does not really have a point guard mentality; they asserted that he compiles assists primarily because he has the ball so much but that he only passes out of necessity when all of his shooting options are exhausted. There is some validity to that point of view, although I think that it is more apt to say that about guys like Stephon Marbury and Steve Francis. While there is no doubt that Iverson has a shoot first mentality, he has also shown throughout his career that he is willing and able to not only pass out of necessity but to create scoring opportunities for his teammates provided that they ar...
