Rose Needs To Be More Like Cutler
It's no secret how much I love and appreciate Derrick Rose. His humility, drive, determination & single minded focus makes him a rare breed in today's "look at my brand" NBA. He is a throwback, who absolutely would have fit in during the association's golden era of the 80's & 90's. Can't you just see him battling Magic Johnson in a [...]
Boozer’s A Double Threat
As easy as would be to sit here and tear "Rip" Hamilton to shreds for being a walking chandelier, another Bulls player's ineffectiveness and indifference continues to piss me off.

A True 2nd Banana
The true beauty of an NBA superstar is knowing that you can go to him when the game is on the line and have the confidence that he'll come through more often than not. When I rank the greatest NBA players of all-time, I generally lean toward the guards and wing players because I know they can get me a shot late in the shot clock when the [...]
