Far Beyond Driven (Kobe Bryant)

Friday, June 5th, 2009

I’ve been critical of Kobe Bryant in the past, but I’m also a “credit where credit is due” person and simply put, Kobe Bryant was nothing shy of brilliant in Game 1 against the Orlando Magic. His full offensive repertoire was on display as he dazzled the Staples Center crowd with a bevvy of [...]

Going Out On A Limb (NBA Finals)

Monday, June 1st, 2009

Apparently, the only ESPN “expert” who learned anything from last series is Henry Abbot. Granted, it’s easy to see why the Lakers’ bandwagon is full, especially after they corrected whatever it was that bothering them enough to dispatch the Nuggets, a team many thought were better than the Lakers in the first three games [...]
