There rsquo s nothing there. Some of that fixation that comes along with a little bit of getting lost in the melee forgetting about the offensive set. You have to remind about something here and there. Other than that he rsquo s been a great addition to us 8221 On whether Artest rsquo s anger has been an issue so far No we haven rsquo t had any of that. I haven rsquo t seen anything like that so far. 8221 ...Hoopsvibe.com - 2009-11-19T12:49 text/html en Hoopsvibe.com http://www.hoopsvibe.com/nba/nba-news/george-karl-nuggets-won-t-rule-out-signing-allen-iverson-ar50867.html 2009-11-19T12:40Coach George Karl suggested Tuesday that if a guard suffers a serious injury the team would at least consider signing former Nugget Allen Iverson if he was available. quot A.I. for us is an injury discussion quot Karl said of the disgruntled Iverson who parted ways with Memphis after only three games. quot I don t think it s an overall discussion right now for us. Say that Ty Lawson is out for the season. Speed and quickness is what Lawson gives us so A.I. would be on the list of ...Hoopsvibe.com - 2009-11-19T12:41 text/html en Hoopsvibe.com http://www.hoopsvibe.com/nba/nba-news/doc-rivers-hand-check-rules-have-brought-back-little-guards-ar50866.html 2009-11-19T12:39Celtics coach Doc Rivers says he jokes with Rajon Rondo that the young point guard wouldn t have survived in the NBA twenty years ago. quot I kid with Rondo all the time telling him there s no way he could have played in my era quot Rivers told reporters recently. quot The hand check was so important back then and they ve taken that away and that s basically what s brought back the small guard which is probably a good thing. quot The NBA outlawed the hand check in 1994. ...Hoopsvibe.com - 2009-11-19T12:39 text/html en Hoopsvibe.com http://www.hoopsvibe.com/nba/nba-news/new-orleans-hornets-unveil-mardi-gras-uniforms-ar50865.html 2009-11-19T12:36The uniforms will be worn annually during the Mardi Gras season and will feature designs inspired by the city of New Orleans and the Carnival tradition. 8220 The Mardi Gras celebration is one of the most elaborate and important traditions to our hometown of New Orleans and we want to recognize and celebrate this special time of year with new Mardi Gras uniforms on the court 8221 said Hornets Owner George Shinn. 8220 We are excited to begin this annual celebration and remain committed to ...Hoopsvibe.com - 2009-11-19T12:37 text/html en Hoopsvibe.com http://www.hoopsvibe.com/nba/nba-news/monta-ellis-i-m-a-warrior-ar50864.html 2009-11-19T12:34quot I ve realized that people are going to talk quot Ellis said. quot With freedom of speech they can say what they want to say but I won t let it get to me and I m not feeding into it. ... quot I ve been saying since training camp I m a Warrior.

Though no decision has been officially made by the Knicks indications are that the Iverson Era - however brief it may be - could begin as early as Thursday night after the 34-year-old former MVP clears waivers at 6 p.m. It may all hinge on how both sides come out of a ...Hoopsvibe.com - 2009-11-19T12:33 text/html en Hoopsvibe.com http://www.hoopsvibe.com/nba/overdribbling/iverson-and-grizzlies-to-part-ways-ar50857.html 2009-11-16T15:01Over the weekend the Memphis Grizzlies signed Jamaal Tinsley. To many it was speculated that this signaled the end of the team s Allen Iverson experiment which it can be safely said failed miserably. The speculation is over. The local daily in Memphis is reporting that the Grizzlies and Iverson will go their separate ways. The official statement released by the team says that the divorce is related to the personal matters that Iverson left the team to attend to more than a week ago. ...Hoopsvibe.com - Christopher Sells2009-11-16T15:05 text/html en Hoopsvibe.com http://www.hoopsvibe.com/nba/flagrant-foul/the-stuff-between-gilbert-arenas-and-shaquille-o-neal-ar50853.html 2009-11-13T16:36The stuff between Arenas and Shaq is women. 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.

This isn t surprising news since New Orleans has been playing disappointing basketball since the season started. Scott isn t exactly to blame though. One look at this team s roster will tell you everything you need to know. There isn t a whole lot of talent there and Chris Paul is being asked to pretty much do everything.

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.
