  1. Germany has outscored their opponents 13-2 so far this Cup. And they lost once.
  2. Spain (Iniesta, Fabregas and Pique) Verra much looking forward to Argentina/Germany. Maradona is a fat, insane genius. Ahh, I knew I was forgetting somebody. Not quite as amusing, then.
  3. Heh, I just realized that every team in that Nike "Write the Future" campaign is now out: Ivory Coast, Italy, England, France, USA, Brazil, and Portugal.

    week 13

    Austin Jackson in for an injured Miguel Cabrera, and Shaun Marcum also down to injury. It's been a fun month.
  5. Apparently, Joe Johnson is still undecided on the Hawks bird-max deal. He still likes the possibility of New York or Chicago. In my opinion, JJ isn't on the same tier as LeBron, Wade or Bosh, and he's not worth max money, so Atlanta can have him at that.
  6. I know it sounds ridiculous but I think you're better off with LeBron/Bosh or Wade/Bosh. With Rose, LeBron, Wade you have three guys who can't really shoot from 3 and all thrive off having the ball in their hands and driving. I mean yeah you take those guys and figure that all out later but I think you could have more problems and less balance with that scenario. That's 3 guys who can break you down off the dribble. You can't possibly guard all of them. I'd just go for it and sort out the details later.
  7. I'm enjoying the live chat: Comment From Darius Darius: ] Zach and Larry PLEASE answer this!!!! Who are potential sutiors for Allen Iverson? Friday July 2, 2010 9:51 Darius 9:51 Zach Harper (Hardwood Paroxysm/TrueHoop Network): Sort of a dead heat between his recliner and his couch. Negotiations seem to be going well.
  8. I think it's officially gotten to the point where I'd be extremely disappointed if the Bulls don't land at least one of the max free agents, and somewhat disappointed if they don't get two. Plus, my first choice for two would be LeBron and Wade. Low-post presence, who the hell cares.
  9. Steve Blake to the Lakers for 4/$16m.
  10. Because by American public perception (and World Cup Finals history) it is. No its not. Perceived to be one of the top 3 teams in the world beating the #1 team? I'm not sure John Doe American know much about the Dutch team. I think the bigger thing of the upset was that Brazil was out. But with the two teams playing in the quarters, one was going to be seriously disappointed with the result regardless.
  11. Rose is the huge draw for free agents right now. No sign and trade deal is going to involve Rose.
  12. Because by American public perception (and World Cup Finals history) it is.
  13. Again, though, the Cavs would have no leverage in such a deal, because Lebron doesn't have to do that.
  14. Or it suggests that the Bulls have a contingency plan if LeBron doesn't work out.
  15. Hey, jackpot scenario just increased from 0.1% odds to 1% odds. Yay.
  16. Difficult to control, mostly. It's basically giving up a 50/50 ball when you are currently in control. Easier to set up a more precise cross off a short throw than throw in such a way that it goes exactly where you want across the field.
  17. Asamoah Gyan is the first player to miss 2 PKs in the World Cup Finals.
  18. It's a red card and a PK. It's a big enough advantage.
  19. Wait, if Salmons opted out and is a free agent now, why didn't the Bulls just keep him on for the season? Because the way he was playing for the Bulls, he likely wouldn't have opted out.
  20. Hakim Warrick signed a 4/$18m deal with the Suns.
  21. Considering Brazilian fans already hated his style of play and were only going to tolerate it if they won the cup, I'm not sure he'll last 24.
  22. A statistically projected look at the free agent class: http://www.basketballprospectus.com/article.php?articleid=1175 Early indications are that Salmons is going to be the guy with the most money for the least production.
  23. LOL, Ruud is ecstatic.
  24. Wow, 2 on keeper in the box and they don't get a shot.
  25. Were going to see a red on Brazil too, play is getting very chippy. LOL. Great call. Nice stomp by Melo. Between the own goal and the red, Melo could be the man of the match.
