4ptsplay for OT

Needing that fix to wet your appetite before the season?
Well we got just what you need.

Seven loaded NBA clipettes!!!

1. Here is a great list of the top 25 talent in the leagues and what effort they need to put fort to help their teams.

2. The 9 lives of this cat are proving useful. Though it seemed T-mac was all but done, we hear that he may come back earlier than expected??? good news or maybe bad news for Rocket fans.

3. Flip Murray is known for flat out lighting it up. Well, It seems the Denver Nuggets are interested in his services to fill in the lost bench roles of the departed Dahntay Jones and Linas Kleiza.

4. Kobe defeats Carmelo in a one on one match up. ....on NBA2k10 of course. what were you expecting?? lakers would never allow a street game. you knew that!

5. Delonte West re-enacts Desperado/Once upon a time in Mexico. Both great flicks by the way. He loads up and decides to end the reign of the drug cartel in Akron himself.

6. Great picture exclusive of delonte west right before the arrest.

7. The great Lord of the Sith David "vader" Stern decides to proceed in this pissing contest he has going with the Refs.

4ptsplay for the tie.

Welcome Hoop Troop,
7 daily items delivered to you for a quick NBA fix.

1. It seems though the Jazz would prefer to net some real talent for Boozer, they just cannot get a break. Early yesterday, some reports surfaced from Ric Bucher about the knicks being interested in a Boozer-Lee swap. Well last night, Alan Hahn refuted those claims and responded.

2. Well, it seems former Mavs player, Jerry Stackhouse may have a thing or two left in the tank.

3. Speaking of left in the tank, could it be? Starbury in the D-league. Folks, we wish, but I couldn't imagine him with that much freedom.

4. Seems the refs are making progress in deciding on what their worth is.
Update there may be a lockout imminent.

5. With so much interest in the Hawks this week, here is a good analysis on their upcoming season.

6. Does it surprise anyone as much as it does me, who the 6th highest player is on the Lakers squad?

7. In a minimal move, it seems the Pacers are close to acquiring Luther Head

8. Great read on D-Wade

4ptsplay for the win.

Morning HoopTroop,
What do we have buzzing today. 6 daily scoops of NBA news delivered to you:
1. The Offseason hasn't been kind to a couple of Ballers out there, namely Richard jefferson of the San antonio Spurs and Tim Thomas of the Dallas Mavericks.. For more on this, follow up with Spurs and Mavs.

2. With all the chaos going on this off season in the world of hoops, the refs seem hell-bent on getting a raise. Now, my opinion is certainly not the end-all but does anyone remember all the BLOWN calls this past season. ARE YOU KIDDING ME???
Blown Call # 1
Blown Call#2
Blown Call#3
Blown Call#4
And you want a raise?? Yeah, I'm sure you deserve one too.

3. The red headed step child distant cousin in LA (the clippers) seem to be making never ending moves this off season. I'm curious how they plan on making use of all their Bigs. Griffin, Camby, Kaveman, and now Skinner?

4. People, Enough with the MJ talks already. The man made a speech, Good or Bad, He was the greatest and he can say anything he damn well feels like saying up there. For that moment, time stood still for him. He was telling stories. GET OVER IT!!!

5. Agent Zero is back with a vengeance. Make sure you don't sleep on him during fantasy pickups. Is he going to make this team a Top 3 team in the east? Only time and injuries will tell. Will they be a 1st round nightmare matchup if healthy??? People, let me just say, regardless of what you think about the wizards, a motivated Agent Zero can be a force to be reckoned with.

6. Ladies and Gentlemen, let the antics begin in Los Angeles because Ron Ron has arrived. I actually think, it will be "interesting" to see how ron ron fills in the shoes Ariza left behind.

7. Vinsanity @ his best. man do I miss those highlight reel days. Caution, watching this will only make you wish basketball was that much closer to tipping off. speaking of which oct 4th preseason starts!!!
