People afraid of Artest coming to town need to refocus their apprehension towards this lady: It was especially hard for Tara Holait of Woodland, who treated the Stojakovic trade news like a death in the family. She said she abruptly left her work as a mail carrier, hurried home,... Link
"Searching for answers and maybe even some buzz after three of their worst defeats of the season, the Timberwolves traded one-time All-Star Wally Szczerbiak and center Michael Olowokandi to the Boston Celtics on Thursday night in a seven-player trade," writes Steve Aschburner of the Minneapolis STAR TRIBUNE. In return,... Link

Here at FBB headquarters, we do our best to make sure that our readers (hi, Mom!) are as prepared as they could possibly be for their fantasy drafts. And because we did all these rankings, analysis, etc., you’d think that we’d be totally ready for our draft, which happened... Link
Boston Celtics What can i say about the Celts? I'm confused by this team year after year. It's nice to see them do well, but sometimes i have to wonder how they do it? Paul Pierce of course is the only consistent scorer Celtics fans have known for... Link
1 to 30 31 to 60 61 to 90 91. Jamaal Tinsley – The ultimate tease; few can match his 3s/steals/assists combo, but he plain cannot shoot or stay healthy. 92. Eddie Jones – Certainly on the downside of his career, but can handle lots of minutes and hit... Link
Cloning Ricky Davis seems to be the only way Celts coach Doc Rivers will solve his rotational issues. While Davis clearly excelled last year coming off the bench, it's also evident now that Paul Pierce needs Davis alongside to draw...... Link
Ah, the shooting guard. Perhaps the deepest of all the positions. But that doesn’t mean you can wait ‘till the end of the draft to take one. If you’ve done your research, and if you can afford to do so, grabbing an elite SG early in the draft can... Link

Want some warm fuzzies about the Celtics not trading Paul Pierce? Here's your biggest reason to hope. Nobody wants him. Despite coming off his best statistical season, I honestly think that Ricky Davis has a better rep right now than Paul. Some of that is deserved, some of it... Link
There is one player that could potentially be on the market this offseason that I would absolutely trade Paul Pierce for (and then some). Kevin Garnett.Before you call me crazy, consider that the TWolves have just about run out of options. They may have seen their window close last... Link
As you would expect, Walker is back in the starting lineup. I don't have any fears that he won't fit in. If anything, I think he'll improve our rebounding. I do hope that the whole team can retain that urgency it brought into game 4. You know that Rick... Link
Well, I think this evens out the lopsided victories column. We lost soundly tonight. Whether we had gone into Indy up 2-0, I pretty much expected to lose this game of the series. Going into it with the series at 1-1 makes the impending loss that much more of... Link
Every time I see the name Ricky Davis in print, it is always close to the words "me-first," "selfish," or "cancer." Every time I hear his name out loud, I know the next thing I'm going to hear is "triple double." Given his recent success as a 6th man,... Link
