Why is it that people always love the big-jolly-goof-balls? Sure we might dislike them for a bit, but we can't just stay mad at them. Once the clock makes its rounds, we'll be standing back up and applauding them.You know who I'm talking about: None other than Big Daddy Shaq.The big dude is back. The Suns are putting together a string of wins. Steve Kerr is slowly looking like Tom Cruise. And

What's on your mind, Chauncey?Everybody and anybody keeping track of the free agency pool this year has got to be already heads up with Chauncey Billups resigning with the Detroit Pistons. Now, it seems that Chauncey Billups will indeed be the face of the Pistons franchise of 2000; will he be one of the most beloved players the franchise has ever had, enough to have his jersey recognized and

Poor guy...Balloons were popped and champaign was poured. It was a night when dreams were made and hearts were broken. It was a day which saw a handful of youngsters hoping to be given the opportunity to embark on a journey towards basketball supremacy, and some for even more. As the doors closed and the telephones fell silent, one man felt a sudden resurgence in his basketball career that he had

Boston Celtics: 24-58Key player performance:Paul Pierce: Last season, Paul Pierce became one of the greatest examples of futility and a burn-out by a basketball player in a season. Pierce is playing in the prime of his career, and displayed one of the best regular seasons of his days last season; unfortunately, his team was going the opposite direction. Pierce sat out half the season, with

Atlanta Hawks: 30-52Key player performance:Joe Johnson: Joe played the best regular season performance in his career as of the moment, and history points to him only getting better next year; much like he has each year in an increasing rate. He averaged over 30 points in the first few games of the season leading the Hawks to a 9-4 start. Supposedly one of the elite scorers as of the present, Joe

The NBA Draft had its share of winners and losers, and the zillion citizens of Earth are debating about it day in and day out without paying heed to their breath. The truth is, no one will really know until the season rolls on and we see Greg Oden breaking backboards or when (not if) we see Kevin Durant shockingly shooting 45% from half-court shots.True enough we can only be so sure as to who the

With only 2 days remaining before one of the most speculated NBA Draft in recent memory, Full Court would like to create its very own mock draft projecting who would, could, and should be drafted by the first 8 teams on the June 28 draft and why.

Weeks removed from one of the most lopsided and painful thrashings in NBA Finals history, the Cavaliers GM Danny Ferry is now looking for a formidable sidekick to stand aside LeBron James and push the Cavaliers a little further up the peak of the mountain. With the Cavaliers already feeling the critical free-agency mistake they committed by signing an underachieving Larry Hughes to a maximum

For over 15 years, the 'big man' has dominated the NBA Championships and is regarded to as the one and only catalyst that any elite team lacks for that final push in the NBA Finals. For the past 15 years, four dominant big men from four different teams have led their team to the NBA's most coveted prize, namely: Shaquille O'Neal, Tim Duncan, David Robinson, and Hakeem Olajuwon; and if not for a

It looks like the experiment is still reeling. The Sacramento Kings continue to immensely search for the perfect coach to replace the long-gone Rick Adelman by appointing former-King Reggie Theus to replace the bust-of-a-coach Eric Musselman. Well, it shouldn't be too hard to find a coach to manage a how-the-hell center in the sloppy Brad Miller, or "the" Ron Artest who just might knock out a fan

Welcome to the annual NBA-Draft. Ever since the LeBron James lottery of 2003, the NBA-Draft has never really hyped up as it should; the draft of the decade did not literally mean a decade, but a long time nonetheless. Four

With the off-season officially starting today, all eyes shift to one of the biggest events in any NBA season's year: The NBA Draft. One team in particular stood out in draft-lottery day other than the Portland Trailblazers, and that was the Boston Celtics. It was a turn-of-history 19-years in the making with the ultimate chance to get either one of the prospected superstars of the next decade.

There comes a time to every man's life when he should realize and ultimately accept that his once proud semi-dynasty is slowly deteriorating; and plugs must be pulled, sockets must be replaced, cogs and sprockets must be unscrewed, and finally reinforce the foundation that was once great so that it may be great once more.

It will always be a mystery as to how an SUV, a GMC, would be struck by a Jaguar and overturn like it did on J.R. Smith as his SUV crashed with a Jaguar and claimed the life of his friend. What isn't a mystery however, is how important wearing a seatbelt is when inside any automobile.

An interesting question raised by Complete Sports: If the lottery teams from last season look back to the draft a year ago and examine how their season unfolded, would they have drafted any differently?

Here comes Dirk Nowitzki thinking he's Elvis once more. This guy is one big goof, I never knew that was the case. It's like putting Gilbert Arenas' antics in a big bad German, only he doesn't keep his own blog nor run his mouth that much; but busts a groove a little bit more.

With one of the most lopsided Finals in NBA history, it makes one ponder of the positive and negative effects of having such a series be featured as the main event for the world's most popular league.

I think that conclusion is pretty much set. Mike Brown is indeed one big pussy. The Cleveland Cavaliers have been trying to follow the dynasty frame of, coincidentally, the San Antonio Spurs through the past years and they have been rewarded fairly well by receiving the opportunity to compete in the NBA's biggest stage against their "mentor team". They acquired a former-Spur GM who has been

Full Court: NBA Blog is now one month old!It certainly doesn't feel like it. It feels like I've been doing this for a million years, and I can't believe that it has just been a month that passed since making my first ever post about the Golden State Warriors' only victory over the Utah Jazz in this year's playoffs.

With the Cleveland Cavaliers half-beat and not looking like they have any fight at all left in their system, the Spurs might be on their way to cruise on to their fourth title in nine years. They can start their partying at this very moment and no one would complain that they were celebrating prematurely; the fact is they won't, since the Spurs are too focused and too experienced. Could this be

The ball went up in the air and arched in a quick motion. The rotation was wrong and it was off angle, the shot was going to miss. He saw it, and was sure of it indeed. So he ran in transition towards the opposite side of the court as the ball clanked off the right side of the rim with two of his teammates controlling the entirety of the paint on that rebounding sequence. He ran as quick as he

All's well that ends well. The mini-issue regarding LeBron James and the birth of his child has been gaining a little fire in the past days as the day of labor slowly approaches. LeBron's second kid is scheduled to be born at the same day the Cleveland Cavaliers face the San Antonio Spurs in a if-necessary Game 5; so the question that lit up in the sky was: Will LeBron be with his child at birth

We're almost sure of that. It looks like LeBron James will not be missing the birth of his second child. The baby was scheduled to make its grand entrance into this world of prostitutes, rockstars, pimps, groupies, and fanatics, on the day when Game 5 of the NBA Finals between the Cavaliers and the Spurs. I think we can readily say that this issue can be swept (no pun intended). Why? It doesn't

After experiencing some bar-tending lessons with bottle flaring, drink mixing, eating big-mouth burgers and fries, and some history and trivia about how each drink came about and all that jazz (Ethanol is the alcohol used in drinks, that's all I can remember), I came home and I saw a picture of Tony Parker behind the grill in a restaurant in the deepest reaches of my medulla oblongata (which

I was running through some posts in the Fanhouse when I came across an article of Brian Grummell about how LeBron James used to play football. Behold, there was even a video. To be honest, I never knew he played football until now. The first thing that entered my mind was: this guy is a natural athlete. The second thing that entered my mind: The Longest Yard scene where Paul Crewe did the same

Everyone's predicting a Spurs steam-roller running all over LeBron James and the Cavaliers this coming Thursday, but I beg to differ.

Talk has been circulating like wild fire regarding Kevin Durant's pathetic display of masculinity after failing to bench-press 185lbs, even once. What is even more bizarre, is that the current President of the U.S. of A. can actually bench more than Kevin Durant.

It is sad but true. The Spurs are officially the kryptonite to the ratings towards anything that is basketball. I tried liking them, I really did.

The Spurs won again. What's new? They always win. They'll probably win the title too anyway. In all of their trips to the NBA Finals since 1999, they never lost the series. I don't think this is the year where they will let up on that. They'll probably want to increase the NBA Finals series-win-streak to maybe 20, or when Duncan finally loses his legs (around 60 years old). I've already stated in

R.I.P. Deron Williams' First Playoff Run April 21, 2007 - May 30, 2007It was a good run, but it had to end some time. The San Antonio Spurs finally disposed of the hopeful Jazz in a 109-84 thrashing at home. My prediction was off by a game, but a series win is a series win. All I have to say is forget about all that. That's not even the story. We can put the whole series in the bottom part of the

Gee. Kobe Bryant is PISSED.I just read a bunch of news articles all saying the same thing: Kobe Bryant is furious with the front office. Kobe Bryant just went off on a rampage a few hours ago opening-fire on the Lakers' front office through the radio stations.The story is that Kobe Bryant signed a 7-year deal with the Lakers back in the summer of 2004 when Shaquille O'Neal and Phil Jackson were

With the off-season just around the corner, and speculations regarding Vince Carter's future have been rapidly increasing; so have the speculations regarding the endless limit of LeBron James' capabilities are as a future-basketball legend (if possible) with his sudden surge in this year's playoffs.Everybody likes to be "Like Mike", but nobody understands that there's only one "Mike", a million "

No, he didn't say it. But he thought it. I guarantee.He never said it. He should have. But he didn't.Through all the criticisms and the doubts, LeBron James held is own and looked straight forward; no where else, only forward. Following a 2-0 series deficit, LeBron James has played his best basketball in this series for the past two games to tie the series 2-2. The audience of the Eastern

I was surfing around the NBA Fanhouse when I came across a video of Dirk jumping around and hugging a man; wherein I saw a link to a post that contained this video. I just had to post this up too.This is just something hilarious, thanks Dirk. Dancing and singing like a goof alone is funny; but imagine one of the best players in the NBA, a 7-foot German whom everyone is accustomed to seeing sport

It is the age old question of all NBA fans from all generations across the wide globe and even under it: Why are the Spurs boring?Think about it. Why? The Spurs can run, they showed that in the Phoenix series. They can score high, once again showed in the Phoenix series. They can adapt to different styles and play in all kinds of levels; be it physical ball with the Nuggets, finesse but quick

The Jazz won this one easy, 109-83. It looked as though the Jazz were going to lay down dead at halftime, but they gave San Antonio quite a beating in the second half where everything went Utah's way, and crap went to San Antonio's way. So this is what they call home-court advantage.Duncan was having a great shooting night and was on his way to stomp on the Utah Jazz, if only he didn't get into

Everyone loves LeBron James. He might have some haters who will be hatin' all the way, but it's not about being liked at all. It's about respect as a basketball player. LeBron is turning out to be a likely pioneer to a new age of basketball, and I am sure everybody realizes that, whether they love him or hate him.I just wanted to clear that up, now on to the main issue: Should LeBron James be

I came across a post in the Fanhouse earlier commenting about how LeBron James threw the ball at the feet of a few ladies in the front row. The sequence follows as: Carlos Delfino tips the ball out of bounds when James caught the ball; then as James picked it up, it SEEMED like he threw it at the ladies in the front row.I only have one thing to say and that is everyone loves controviersies and

I'm sure not everyone is enjoying the NBA Playoffs, and I can't blame them. First of all, 26 out of the 30 teams have gone fishin', which means the fans of those 26 teams could care less who won the NBA Title; especially the die-hard fans: "Screw the world, my team got eliminated!"The match-ups also haven't been friendly for the average neutral NBA watcher, and the ratings seem to show it.

Rasheed Wallace hit a big shot to take the lead for good in the final 24 seconds of the game to boost the Pistons up 2-0 in the Eastern Conference Finals.

The rich get richer, and the poor only get poorer.After this year's draft is over, the Western teams will only become greater juggernauts while the East will have to settle for hoping for draft steals.I can't say I was too ecstatic about the outcome of the draft lottery, mainly because my favorite team didn't get the first pick; but you have got to be happy for the winners anyway, especially

Okay, seeing that the one measly shot (or pass rather) has created shock-waves in discussions, I think we should tackle the issue. Here's what everyone is crying about: With the Cavs down 78-76 and under 10 seconds to go, LeBron drove to the lane and kicked the ball out to Donyell Marshall for a wide-open 3-pointer. He missed.My apologies to Charles Barkley and Magic Johnson, but I have to

Here's why: Jeff Van Gundy, with one more year remaining on his contract, stated right after the game

It will also mark LeBron James' first ever appearance in his career, where he and the Cavs will face the Detroit Pistons,

This game, along with games 1, 2, and 3, emphasized the Bulls' dire need for a low post scorer as their perimeter shots failed to bail them out of this game. Let's just call the Bulls unlucky.

But that's not the story here...Here it is: The Nets scored only 6 fourth quarter points; and the Cavs still lost by 11.Sure, the Nets were up by 19 by the end of the third quarter; but come on, that has got to be the most pathetic scoring display I have ever seen from two

Geez, people should stop taking the words 'Most Valuable Player' too literally. The NBA should change the name of the award to prevent idiotic comments and rants about who is "the most valuable player to his team".

Jason Richardson will not be suspended for the clothesline he delivered Okur late in the 4th quarter of Game 4, which earned him a flagrant foul penalty 2. Which means Jason Richardson will be available as the Warriors try to stay alive in Utah.If J-Rich won't be suspended, then Robert Horry shouldn't be suspended too!Not really. Especially after the fact that Horry's hands were 200 feet away

I know everyone had their eyes set on Golden State and how deep they can reach in the playoffs, but suddenly, Phoenix and San Antonio has snatched the spotlight in what promises to be a knockout series (literally). With each and every passing game, the Suns and the Spurs have rewarded us, the viewers, with intense action and crushing blows (literally and figuratively) which catch worldwide

A few days from now, Dirk Nowitzki will be receiving his MVP trophy in a press conference. For those who aren't updated with the playoff situation and are asking "Why receive the trophy in a press conference? Why not in a game?". Ladies and Gentlemen, that is because Dirk Nowitzki and the Dallas Mavericks, owners of the 6th best regular season record in NBA history, have been ousted from the

Before the game started, I was expecting a Warrior-win. After three quarters, I knew that it would take only a Utah collapse for them to lose the game.Warrior WoesWhen I was expecting a fun Warrior-Jazz game, this was not the type of fun I had in mind.

In the least-watched series (only because LeBron James has a ton of fans):So much for the perfect playoff record. The Pistons finally had a bad game, and the Chicago Bulls finally capitalized and held firm on the lead for a 15-point win at home on Mother's Day.
