We’re nearly a fifth of the way through the season and have a pretty good idea of who the best teams in the league (although not that good of an idea, as no team really wants to hold of the season). We also have a fairly good idea who the truly pathetic teams in the [...]

Every week The Sports Bank’s David Kay breaks down which players in college hoops are helping or hurting their NBA Draft stock. You can check out my complete 2010 Mock Draft and if you are as nerdy as I am, a 2011 Mock Draft as well.

Let me first start off by asking, how did we ever miss this photo? As much as we love all things David Kahn, a photo like this would’ve made our day, week, month, life. But better late than never, I guess. Ok, on to Kahn’s continued lust for Ricky Rubio.

Now that the dust has kinda settled from this year’s NBA draft, we can finally get into the debate of which decade has had the best #1 draft picks. Of course, some haven’t had the time to really make their case and we’re completely aware of this fact (so no need to bring it up), [...]

Last week we heard the crazy rumor out of Phoenix that the Celtics were considering shipping Rajon Rondo and Ray Allen to acquire Amare Stoudamare, Leanardo Barbosa, and a lottery pick.

Most of us considered it to pure speculation. Rondo isn’t going anywhere unless Danny Ainge is absolutely overwhelmed with a offer he can’t refuse.
