Before the dirty laundry was aired out complete with yellow stains I was trying to figure out what was wrong with Arenas. At first glance he did a major media blackout. I just thought he didn 8217 t want to talk because distractions would just mind fuck the dude adding more pressure to stay healthy. Arenas simply didn 8217 t want to jinx anything and become a distraction himself or so I thought. There was a post game interview with the former Agent ...</description><author>Hoopsvibe.com - John Nguyen</author><dc:date>2009-11-13T16:36</dc:date> <dc:format>text/html</dc:format> <dc:language>en</dc:language> <dc:creator>Hoopsvibe.com</dc:creator> </item><item><title>Chris Paul versus Rajon Rondo feud</title><link>http://www.hoopsvibe.com/nba/flagrant-foul/chris-paul-versus-rajon-rondo-feud-ar50844.html</link>   <date>2009-11-5T23:52</date><description>I regard Rajon Rondo as 8220 flirting 8221 to be in the top 5 of NBA point guards. He rsquo s not in there yet. Rondo is merely flirting with that. I know you basketball diehard fans were watching that game where Chris Paul got into it with the leprechaun. Of course this started over typical trash talk something to the extent of Rondo saying to Paul about him having a championship ring while his fingers will never have any. Foolish things to say Not really. It rsquo s basketball.

Other writers have been clowning on the Los Angeles Clippers organization for decades. I rsquo m guilty as charged but that rsquo s because I rsquo ve been following the organization since 1993.

Congratulations Rondo. He earned it. Many people outside of Boston are questioning whether Rondo rsquo s play is worth this much. The general tone from basketball junkies is that the Celtics overpaid and locked him up for too many years. Rondo fans theorize that if he waited until the offseason then a bigger payday would have been within reach. Regardless of either stance Rondo got his. ...</description><author>Hoopsvibe.com - John Nguyen</author><dc:date>2009-11-4T06:18</dc:date> <dc:format>text/html</dc:format> <dc:language>en</dc:language> <dc:creator>Hoopsvibe.com</dc:creator> </item><item><title>More Problems for the Chicago Bulls</title><link>http://www.hoopsvibe.com/nba/flagrant-foul/more-problems-for-the-chicago-bulls-ar50828.html</link>   <date>2009-11-1T05:16</date><description>Tyrus Thomas who is sometimes heralded as the next Shawn Kemp hopefully without the over abundance of kids was handling out Morton rsquo s Salt.
