Can the Kings make it 13 straight wins against the Clippers? Let's hope so, for the sake of early-April takeovers. The line sits at +4.5, which is a line I would most definitely buy a cosmo for. It's as yet unclear whether Sam Cassell or Shaun Livingston will start... Link
Lamar Odom posted a double-double with 20 points and 12 rebounds while dishing out eight assists and Kwame Brown added 13 points and nine rebounds, as the Lakers snapped a two-game losing skid.... Link
Yesterday, DLIC had initially called Odom a “busted Swiss Army knife,” which I for some reason thought rendered this post useless. Then he changed it to “your do-it-all, do-nothing guy,” which, all sunrise aside, silently opened up the wound that is the following:It is with great trepidation that I... Link
Thought I’d throw up a special weekend column, since I’m not sure I’ll have one for tomorrow since it’s a holiday and all. Before we get into the situations to pay attention to, I thought we should check in on some of the centers who recently won starting jobs... Link
Liz Robbins of THE NEW YORK TIMES reports, Pat Riley, the Hall of Fame coach, and Shaquille O'Neal, the most dominant center in the league, were worn down following the Heat's win over the Lakers - Riley by his 48-minute aerobic workout and O'Neal by Lakers centers Chris Mihm... Link
Well, last week proved to be the most successful week of the season with some dominating wins (though against arguably sub par teams) and only a single loss. The most telling trend from last week's performance was the balance in all facets of the game. In our loss, Kobe... Link

Here comes the first weekend of regular season basketball action in … well … in a long time. And here at FBB we couldn’t be more excited. 25 games, three days, and we’ll start to see some separation in the fantasy basketball standings. Coming out of the gate strong... Link
Taken early, a power forward can really help shape your draft. Taking a center-esque PF like Elton Brand in the first couple rounds means you can hold off on a center for a good while. Taking a PF that can step outside and knock down a three like Dirk... Link
Safely hiding 3500 miles away, one-time 1st overall draft pick and new Laker Kwame Brown has chosen to speak out about his breakout season last year with the Washington Wizards. You remember, the one where he finally reached his full potential by getting suspended by the team for the... 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

Kwame Brown and some cat I've never heard of (Laron Profitt), as well as some cash, are coming to the purple and gold in exchange for Caron Butler and Chucky Atkins. I liked pre-March Chucky Atkins. Post-March Chucky got a little to mouthy with the reporters and started to... Link
