I can't lie, I love clichés. One of my very favorites without a doubt is the old saying, "hindsight is 20/20." There is no phrase that rings more true.The expression comes to mind when thinking about the current NBA labor dispute. Both owners and players are entrenched in legal and verbal warfare. Unfortunately, there is no clear end in sight. What has led us to this situation?Throughout sports history, there have been thousands of deals struck. Some were great, some were awful. There were some, however, that truly shaped the way we view sports today. Like precedent set in Supreme Court rulings, there ...

New York Knicks: 6 Reasons Dwight Howard Could Bring a Dynasty to the Big Apple Amare Stoudemire, Carmelo Anthony, Dwight Howard, Free Agency, Kobe Bryant, NBA, NBA Atlantic, New York, New York Knicks, Preview/Prediction, shaquille oneal | Comments Off
While the Knicks are finally starting to see the benefit of the Carmelo Anthony trade, it is very clear that the Knicks lack an inside presence on the defensive end of the floor. Although Amar'e Stoudemire has been very effective offensively, landing himself as the number five scorer in the NBA averaging 25.42 PPG, his defense has been mediocre at best.

They would likely have to trade something to get him, as the Magic will likely attempt to get something ...

Time creeps up on the best of us. I used to be able to eat a whole burrito, and it wouldn't induce a weekend-long coma. Age just has a way of catching up to you. So it is the same with the fittest of athletes. Careers are fleeting. One day you are hitting a buzzer-beater, and the next you are waiver wire fodder with no teams interested in your services. It is the sad reality of the NBA. While you may fall in love with your favorite players, their time to hang it ...

by Chris TomassonFiled under: Celtics, Knicks, USA Basketball, Thunder, NBA Free Agents, FIBA World ChampionshipNEW YORK -- Rajon Rondo likes having a new big guy in town. Then again, it's not as if Boston brass consulted him. "I don't have any choice,'' Rondo said in an interview with FanHouse about the Celtics' recent signing of free agent Shaquille O'Neal, 38. Rondo, though, had good things to say about this hardly green center joining Gang Green. "I like it,'' the Boston point guard said after his Team USA practiced Tuesday at John Jay College in preparation for the World Championship later this month in Turkey. ...
