- Carmelo Anthony was lying on the floor, motionless. Why did nobody call timeout?
- When Secretary of Education Arne Duncan talks about NCAA team's graduation rates, should there be exceptions made for teams whose players leave for the NBA? Can that really be seen as a failing of the school -- especially when playeres are banned from going to the NBA straight from high school?
- Bill Simmons takes a stab at understanding what's happening with Rasheed Wallace.
- A special treat: A splendid and thoughtful series examining the career and meaning of Yao Ming, published side-by-side on Red 94 in both English and Mandarin.
- Brandon Roy to Kevin Arnovitz, about his role in the Blazer offense: "When we lose, I'm like, 'Man, I should've had the ball more. But when we win, I'm totally fine playing off the ball."
- Putting the nasty into nasty dunking.
- Larry Brown draws up a nice little play for a huge 3.
- It turns out that Steve Blake leads the league in not getting his shot blocked.
- Sometimes we wonder what athletes will be like in the future. Turns out the answer is: Usain Bolt.
- PG-13 audio of Kenyon Martin's locker room tirade in response to the popcorn-in-the-car prank (for comedy reasons, I guess, it's spliced together with a Christian Bale rant).
- It had to be done, even it's a formality. For the record, the case that LeBron James is the 2009-2010 NBA MVP.
- The Cavaliers have clinched the best record in the NBA. So ... is it smarter to sit LeBron James and rest him for the playoffs, or play him?
- Jrue Holiday may be one of the best point guard prospects in the NBA, but most NBA fans know little about him. Here's your chance to get to know him in an extended interview. David Thorpe recently wrote: "I see almost no holes in his future. He can shoot, handle, pass, think and defend. And he's got a great body to do those things for years to come. If he gets mentored smartly, he can be a Chauncey Billups-type, a multi-time All-Star leading his team as one of its top two players. If he's asked to be more of a role player, he'll be a Derek Fisher-type -- a key component to lots and lots of winning. Either way, his future is extremely bright."
- Imagining the Chicago Bulls with Dwyane Wade.
- Hey look, I'm going to be talking about ... the law.
- Channing Frye wants you to help him determine the gender of his unborn child. (These last two bullets are both true, I swear.)
