I like Bonzi Wells. He hits three-pointers from the corner to win games on the road. Also, I like Shareef Abdur-Rahim. He plays balls out in the fourth quarter and makes former MVPs take bad baseline jumpers in critical possessions. Ahh... the sweet taste of prolonged victory.... Link
I used to work with this kid Alan who rocked those Bike gym teacher shorts and Rec Specs when he hooped, but despite his (intentional?) style deficiencies, he could actually play a little. If El Huracan forced me to assign him an NBA play-alike, I would have to go... Link
The Nets franchise is fascinating. I wholeheartedly support its move to Brooklyn - little could do more for the NBA than sticking a team in Brooklyn. One thing that could? It involves a parade and J Street. Count me among those who pray to the basketball gods that Carter,... Link

This is just a test....seriously, we wouldn't choose Shareef as player of the week if you paid us. I just need to keep typing here to make sure we see where it needs to cut off. I think it's before this. But I'll just keep typing, hoping to see at some point where the excerpt cuts off; I know it can't be any longer than 100 words, but somehow I think it's more right around 60.

Ah, the NBA schedule... For every Detroit Pistons, there's a New York Knicks. God bless Russ Granik. Tip-off around 6 p.m., televised on Comcast SportsNet with radio on 1140 AM. STARTING LINEUPS: NEW YORK PG - Stephon "The Untradeable" Marbury SG - Quentin "The Recently Traded" Richardson SF -... 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 This is where things start to get tricky. In the first four or five rounds, you have to take the best player available. There is a limited number of true impact players, and the more you can get your hands on, the better.... Link
Knowing who to draft, obviously, is important. Equally important is to know who (whom?) NOT to draft. The guys listed below are guys that we feel might be over-valued, which isn’t to say that they shouldn’t be drafted, but you should let them slide past their “projected” spots for... 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
Richard Jefferson said he supported the Nets' decision to back out of a multiyear deal with forward Shareef Abdur-Rahim in July. The team was concerned about an old knee injury. "Shareef is a very talented player, but it wasn't that...... Link
Ah, Geoff Petrie. Intelligent, shrewd, calculating and um... a sweetheart? Sam Amick reports that Petrie has rescinded the qualifying offer made to Darius Songaila, allowing the Scrapmaster to sign a one-year deal with Chicago. Typically, restricted free agents can't sign a one-year. But when Petrie rescinded the qualifying offer,... Link
Instead of bemoaning the loss of Shareef Abdur-Rahim, the Nets see their summer as a success. They got bigger. They got more offensive. And they got decidedly deeper. "From an offensive standpoint, it's probably the deepest team we've had since...... Link
OK, so we've run out of clever puns involving the word "Bonzi." We've failed you - please find it in your heart to forgive us.The Bonztacular One (whew) was on the Rise Guys this morning, chatting about second chances, defense and crappy golf scores. Less than informative and certainly... Link
The Detroit Pistons signed Sacramento swingman Maurice Evans to a three-year, $4.5 million offer sheet Wednesday. The Kings have seven days to match the offer to retain Evans, a restricted free agent. They might not because after signing Shareef Abdur-Rahim earlier this month, they were expected to let Evans...

Charley Rosen has got yet another hate-filled column up at FOXSports. Two Kings targets this time: Shareef and Jamal Sampson. On SAR, Rosen politely suggests: "This guy is a highly overrated player whose pluses are ostensibly a good fit with the Kings but whose flaws are noticeable and easily... Link
$29M over 5 years. For Shareef Abdur-Rahim. Yes, that Shareef Abdur-Rahim. Marcos Breton has a surprisingly good column today about team doctors and SAR and the genius of Petrie. In short, if SAR sucks, NJ wins. If SAR is healthy, the Kings win. If SAR is great and helps... Link
King Abdur-Rahim is inked, according to The Bee. No details yet. The Kings are now looking at being one of the best offensive teams in the West. The defense...well, you know.... Link
Barring a disaster like the one that made Shareef Abdur-Rahim available to begin with, the All-Star forward is about to become a King. While his agent, Aaron Goodwin, said there are three teams still in the running, it's clear the...... Link
The Nets' decision to rescind a deal for Shareef Abdur-Rahim may have been right medically but was wrong for a team that needs to win now, says SI.com's Chris Mannix.... Link
In a disaster of their own making, the Nets yesterday rescinded their acquisition of veteran power forward Shareef Abdur-Rahim, the cornerstone of their offseason plans to land an inside scoring presence.... Link
The Nets have made a big fuss about Shareef Abdur-Rahim's health, threatening to cancel the trade. All along, I haven't understood why they would do that. Either cancel it or not. I said on the first day we saw Thorn...... Link
