With his crowning as the NBA's executive of the year for 2012, Larry Bird may have sealed his case as the basketballs most successful and influential individual in the history of the sport. Bird is without question one of the greatest players in the history of the league, but it is what he has done [...]

In Jackie MacMullan's latest column, Robert Parish shares a story about one of his first encounters with Michael Jordan during his time as a member of the Bulls: "What set Larry apart from Magic and Jordan was he wasn't an in-your-face leader like they were," Parish said. "He had too much respect for us. If [...]

This is the latest NBA 2K12 ad.  And I know that Drake was probably told what to say, but I don't care.  He still sucks at everything.  His whiny autotune music makes him the Ross Geller of rap (he even LOOKS like Ross).  And the line "today's Miami Heat play above the rim, Larry Bird [...]

The Sporting News just came out with its 10 greatest NBA teams of all time.  And, of course, it lists the 1996 Chicago Bulls team at #1. I could go into how the league was terribly watered down at that point, having expanded three times in seven years… adding six teams over that span… including [...]

Isiah Thomas can't open his mouth without coming off as a pompous ass.  Probably because he is.  In a Fox Sports interview, he basically admits that he had a hand in the New York Knicks recent moves. “I don't feel (like an outsider),” he says. He pauses, decides to qualify. “From the players? Management? Coaches? [...]
