It’s that time of year.  The preseason is now in full swing and the regular season isn’t far behind.  What to do, what to do, what to do?  While they’re an interesting yet futile exercise, predictions are always fun.
I don’t know how things will shake out.  I could definitely make some educated guesses but they’d […]

Via BSotS comes Shaq’s latest stylistic mumblings.
Shaq’s always been known as a guy with a great big sense of humor, and who knows, maybe he got on a roll and was just messing around. It doesn’t really matter though. Point is, what he says is no longer significant.
He’s been saying a lot of […]

According to Marc Stein, the NBA will be looking into doing the NBA Outdoors! (Elaine Benes does not appreciate the unnecessary punctuation) again next year. If the Suns are once again involved, I will be there.
Despite the late start time ushering in some surprisingly cool weather and with it the onset of one of […]

Tonight’s outdoor preseason tilt against the Denver Nuggets was an interesting experience. By interesting I mean windy. And by windy I mean I mean cold. And by cold I mean Mother Nature had a good laugh at the expense of all in attendance this evening.
By the end of the game, most of […]

I ran into each of the following people in the span of 15 minutes:
Alando Tucker
Aaron Nelson
Bill Cartwright
Dan Majerle
Reggie Miller
Cheryl Miller
Alvan Adams
Looks like we’re in the team hotel. They’re all over the place.
My wife has a serious crush on Alando Tucker after chatting him up in line at Starbucks. Apparently, he’s really, really cute. […]

I said last week after my trip to Tucson for the Suns intrasquad scrimmage that I was not much of a travel agent. Somehow, I’ve gotten worse. Much worse.
I’m sitting in a Discount Tire in lovely Indio, California, waiting for my vehicle to be fitted with four brand spanking new tires. You […]

I usually take care of the week’s links every Friday but I won’t be around much tomorrow.  I’m heading to Indian Wells for the Suns preseason outdoor game against the Denver Nuggets with my lovely wife.  I’m still pretty much without speech that a) I’m even going and b) she’s genuinely excited to come along.

According to Shaq, that may very well be the case.
“There’s only two or three great big men anyway. The rest just do what they’re supposed to do.”
Shaq made this point after putting his rookie backup Robin Lopez in the top twelve centers in the league.  As with everything Shaq says, this should be taken with […]

Nope, just Amare sporting his new set of glasses/goggles.
Other than the above picture and a slight disappointment in Stoudemire’s choice of eyewear, I don’t have much reason for this post.
Except for a little word association.
Amare’s goggles - Antoine Carr - big dude who played for the Utah Jazz - Greg Ostertag - no, he’s white […]
