Sabiso's Weekend Extravaganza
Terwijl Deron Williams al lekker in Turkije van het zonnetje geniet, Kobe zijn deal om in Italie te spelen aan het afronden is en de rest van de NBA een beetje showball speelt (zie filmpje hieronder), laten de NBA en de Players Union weten dat een akkoord nog ver weg is.

Signing Off: The 2010-2011 NBA Season
Bij deze mijn laatste post voor het 2010-2011 basketbal seizoen, de hoogte punten uit the Bill Simons retro diary van Game 6 van de NBA Finals. Enjoy:
1. The X-Factor:
[3rd Quarter]
10:17: Tyson Chandler misses a layup, grabs the board and puts it back in. He was tougher than any Miami frontcourt guy this series, bringing us to a rarely seen double irony: Oklahoma City nearly traded for him in February 2009, then voided the deal after giving him a physical (and lost to Chandler's team in the conference finals 28 months later); and Michael Jordan gave him to Dallas last summer for Erick Dampier's waivable contract, inadvertently giving Dallas the missing piece it needed to beat LeBron James in the Finals … you know, the guy everyone keeps saying is the next Michael Jordan. MJ really is the greatest.
2. The confrontation:
Remember when Wade tore into LeBron with three-plus minutes remaining in Game 3? When he yelled at him for eight solid seconds? When there was genuine anger in his eyes? When he did it right on the court, right in front of the other players, right in front of 20,000 fans and 10 million TV viewers?
LeBron was never the same after that.
