Milwaukee Bucks Draft Outlook
Let’s face it; until he’s traded or released, injury or not, Michael Redd is and will continue to be the face of this franchise. With that said, this club still has a lot of work to do. Sure, they remained competitive despite key injuries to Redd, Andrew Bogut, and even saw Luke Ridnour miss some [...]
2009 NBA Draft: Top Ten Point Guards
While it’s fairly set in stone on who will be the No. 1 pick in the NBA Draft come the end of June, it’s almost equally as certain who the guy behind him is. Ricky Rubio leads a solid group of point guards in the 2009 draft class, with at least five guys who can [...]
2009 NBA Mock Draft: Round One
As I said in my previous Top Ten mock, after Blake Griffin, this is a fairly unpredictable draft. Ricky Rubio is probably too talented to fall past both Memphis and Oklahoma City, but necessity might win out. Both teams could upgrade with the addition of Rubio, but both could also opt for Jordan Hill, or [...]

Here are five guys that, for one reason or another, face the likelihood of not being drafted, despite having tons of talent and ability. Players face weak knocks like “less [...]
All Eyes On LeBron
Things are getting crazy for Orlando. Ironically enough, though, the craziness is actually happening in Cleveland. You know, the city where those ultra-hyped Cavaliers never lose.

The NBA Lottery is done and over with, so now every NBA scout and expert is scrambling around to complete their first authentic mock draft. After all, how concise can your mock be if you don’t even know the order the teams will be picking in? Regardless of how it stands now, history tells us [...]
Is Orlando Benching Redick for Lee A Good Decision?
Orlando Magic shooting guard, J.J. Redick, will find a comfortable spot back on the bench, after it was announced that coach Steve Van Gundy will opt for rookie Courtney Lee. Lee was playing efficient basketball all season and against the 76ers in the first round, but was forced out of action due to a facial [...]
Why the Orlando Magic Can Beat the Cleveland Cavaliers
It doesn’t get more bad-ass than what Hedo did in game seven against Boston. With the Celtics putting together a sorry, half-assed comeback attempt late in the game, Turkoglu hit a three to put any worries to rest. There wouldn’t be any magical late-game run this time. No, not with Turkuglu on watch. A three-pointer [...]
