Well I’m glad the NBA (David Stern) came to its senses and invited Gilbert Arenas to play in Houston this weekend after all. Too bad Gil had to go and finish the first half of the season with a 4-for-22 effort and 6 turnovers at Dallas. Ouch.So we have... Link
LA Clippers 109 Milwaukee 85 –Andruw Bogut had his first tough night 15 minutes and 2 points, and he was -23 … This game was done before the 4th Quarter … The Clippers are 6-2 …. Milwaukee didn’t win a game last year against the West on the road... Link
1 to 30 31. Chauncey Billups – We love PGs here at FBB, and they don’t come more rock solid than this one. 32. Jason Terry – No, seriously, we love PGs, especially ones who were able to finish 30th on the player rater while only getting 30 mpg.... Link
No one can accuse Emeka Okafor of spending the offseason lounging around on the couch and eating mounds of ice cream. Especially if they caught even a fleeting glimpse of him in the Charlotte Bobcats' training camp. Okafor, last year's NBA rookie of the year, sought out the tutelage... Link

Miami Heat What can anyone say about a team with Shaquille O'Neal and Dwayne Wade? Of course the Heat will be the favorites to go to the NBA finals. As great as the Heat were last season, look at what they have done in the off season. They... Link
One big white stiff on the move So now, under contract, the Bobcats have Okafor, Brezec, Allen (who may get dealt), May and Voskuhl. That's a pretty decent frontline for what will be a second year team. But this trade still leads me to believe that Bickerstaff doesn't know... Link
Welcome to another round of NBA Roulette, more commonly known as the NBA Draft. As always, my crazy friend 'Neal and I get together and see if we can predict where each player will land in the first round using team needs, past tendencies and overall guess work that... Link

Lets pretend that game against the Rockets didn't happen. And especially forget that I paid to go. Besides, if I would've known that Roche had already unknowingly sabotaged the Bulls effort, I wouldn't have gone. (Wear your lucky Bulls hat next time!) But what I can't disregard was seeing... Link
For the first time since I can remember, Selection Sunday came and went and I really couldn’t have cared less. Rather than watching the Big Ten or ACC Finals, I was busy peeking in on Dallas/Minnesota and Houston/Sacramento. I’m not sure what that says about me, but keep this... Link
One of the statistics I have been looking at a lot lately has been the on court off court defensive stats at the 82 games site. Many believe figuring out who are good defenders and who are not is almost impossible. I think its difficult, but not impossible. I... Link
Charlotte Bobcats forward Emeka Okafor will miss the Rookie Challenge on Friday night at NBA All-Star weekend because of a sprained left ankle. Boston's Al Jefferson will replace the No. 2 overall pick in June's draft Okafor was hurt Jan. 30 against the Los Angeles Lakers and spent the... Link
Initially people thought the Magic were hijacked by Tracy McGrady s trade demand. Once again a player was putting a team in position to get as little as possible for a marketable commodity. But this wasn t the case. Although I suspect Steve Francis wears man size huggies pull... Link
There is nothing better for an expansion team to build around than a great rookie player. The Bobcats in their first season have exactly that in Emeka Okafor. Okafor had questions raised about him before he was drafted. It was thought that he had already reached his potential and... Link

I've been working on this for a bit, and I think it's time to release it out into the general public: the new stat page. A little Merry Christmas from me to my readers. It actually started as an automated tool for myself, so I could have a few... Link
