US Team Update (RePost)

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008

Just wanted to share with you an interesting update re the Olympic US Team from Ball Don't Lie:

Team USA managing director Jerry Colangelo and head coach Mike Krzyzewski recently told reporters that the 12-man roster for the Beijing Olympics will be announced on Monday. But who can wait for Monday? That's like three days from now! Using leaks, rumors and a little common sense, let's handicap who's likely in and out:

"Guaranteed" China bound:

Carmelo Anthony — Post: "USA Basketball managing director Jerry Colangelo confirmed the selection of Anthony, who will be appearing on his second straight Olympic squad. ... "In the last year, I thought he took a half-step back," Colangelo told the newspaper. "I have no idea why, but obviously, I've read the reports about how he might be traded and about some of the little things that have gone on. But there's a lot of stuff I'm not (privy) to."

Jason Kidd — Chicago Tribune: "Jason Kidd said Wednesday he's looking forward to playing in Beijing even if it does cut into his golf game. ... "I'm not supposed to say anything, but I'm looking forward to participating," said the Mavericks point guard, who started on the 2004 U.S. Olympic team."

NBA Finals Game 6: LiveBlogged!

nba finals game 6 (06/18/2008) 
Powered by: CoveritLive
11:12
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. I'm Gary, here again to bring you a LiveBlog of Game Six of the NBA Finals.
11:13
We join the game late in the 2nd quster (sorry about that, couldn't be helped), with Boston leading 47 to la's 34. KG goes to take FTs.
11:15
farmar fouled on a driving play, intercepting a pass. goes to FT.
11:15
17 pt lead by celtics. kobe has only scored 3 pts.
11:15
farmar sinks 1 of 2 fts
11:16
kg with terrific spin move in paint, sinks j against gasol
11:16
why doesnt he do that more often?
11:16
r. allen almost fumbles.
11:16
ends up with rondo who scores on teardrop. almost hesitant.
11:17
kobe pass intercepted. back to bos.
11:17
kg fouled by odom, misses jumper off pick and roll with pierce.
11:18
47s left in 2nd q
11:18
35-55 bos
11:18
kg sinks ft
11:18
odom blocked.
11:18
la resorting to 1 on 1 plays
11:18
pierce pass to perkins underneath, sinks undergoal shot.
11:19
23 pt lead by bos
11:19
kobe misses 3
11:19
kg halfcourt heave misses, end of 1st half
11:24
so far kg is leading bos with 17 pts, 6 rebs and 3 assists.
11:24
pierce follows with 10 pts, 3 rebs and an amazing 9 assists
11:25
for lal, only kobe is in double digits with 14, only gasol is closest, and only with 6 pts.
11:26
i doubt if the hometown factor has ever been as more important now than ever. it seems the '6th man' - the homecrowd, really is the key factor that determines wins.
11:27
two things come to mind. First, this is certainly not a good indication of great basketball. Â As purists would argue, good basketball is good basketball wherever you decide to play and whomever the crowd. The fact that these teams win only on their homecourts is to me, a bit of a letdown.
11:27
2nd, it makes you wonder what the result would be if they played on a neutral court.
11:29
that of course, is never gonna happen, so the topic is moot. But still, if only to fantasize the possibility of actually watching a great basketball game, with great execution and great plays, sans the effect of a hometown crowd, you gotta wonder what would happen if they played in a place without any bias.
11:31
having said that, and admitted that's never gonna happen, let's see if lal can beat the odds and get a win out of this. They've got to remember the crisp, precision offense they are known for and what brought them to where they are in the 1st place. If they can just play the way they did when they manhandled the Suns and the Spurs the way they did, then things might be different this 2nd half.
11:35
alright we're close to the start of the 2nd half
11:36

kobe sinks 3 after great def on other side
10:17
5-18,lal bos timeout
10:18
lal is coming out like a house on fire just like game 4. the question in everyone's mind is, can they sustain it?
10:20
omg im gonna have to take in these gloria arroyo commercials
10:20
dont let anyone say this is easy, esp because of those commercials
10:20
ok back to the game, bos possession

10:27
bos timeout
10:28
bryant's 3s are starting to work as a ruse. lal bigs starting to position themselves underneath to expect pass as bryant defenders double team him.
10:28
again, lal is breaking out just like game 4, this time bryant is doing damage instead of odom.
10:29
why is that when odom is quiet (like today), he is criticized, but when kobe is quiet (like several times in the past games), he is 'biding his time'.
10:29
well, ill answer my own question. that's because kobe is kobe, and odom is just a far #3 in their lineup.
10:30
no sign of vujacic or farmar yet.

10:36
is bos gonna give this up so they can win at home? maybe wait for perkins to get well?
10:37
the nba is suffering a terribly controversial finals right now, what with ref donaghy's claims of game fixing.

10:38
if there's any doubt as to a team letting a game go i dont think this helps the league at this point.

10:46
bos interception
10:46
tony allen all alone, mihm didnt guard, he needs to be changed
10:47
lal timeout
10:47
it seems to me, lal fails with their 2nd unit almost all the time. In game 2 and game 4, evident.
10:48
just as we all expected after gasol got traded to la, la 2nd unit is suspect. Not producing and in fact, their achilles heel.
10:49
they go from an nba finals bound team to a cant get in playoffs team when their rotation starts.

exciting, skillful. a thinking, strategy game.
11:05
except maybe for  cassell's love for shooting. the self - proclaimed 'best bump and shoot player in the NBA' still hasn't met a shot he doesnt like. Everytime the ball goes to him, its going up in the air.
11:05
45-39 lal
11:06
maybe someone needs to tell him they need his veteran presence, not his shooting
11:07
'run your offense. you will find your way there' - phil jackson.

posey miss, kobe reb.
11:07

kobe misses running right side j,
11:16
end of 2nd q
11:16
55-51 lal
11:18
this is a great game. Frankly, D. Stern doesn't really have much to worry about, scandalous claims of game fixing provided, as long as they produce great games like these.
11:20
then again, the idea that the 2002 la - sac games were fixed to produce a lal win is terrible, if true.
11:20
but the reason i say stern doesnt have anything to worry about is that if it really was fixed, he didn't have to, because if the finals result in exciting games then why would he have to?
11:21
anyway, moving on. We have a bit of a break at halftime, so I'll go work a bit and make some calls. later folks.
11:35
52-55 lal, start of 3rd
11:36

Nike Summer League Finals (06/15/2008) 
Powered by: CoveritLive
4:16
yes ladies and gents, welcome to Ballex's liveblogging of the Nike SUmmer League Finals bet. admu and ue, at the Ultra, today, 3pm
4:17
we join the contest with the score 5-4 UE, 7:29 in the 1st
4:17
i doubt if ill do this blow by blow style as the nba, as i do not know all the players very well. rather, i will do this as I make observations throughout.
4:18
btw, i had an invite to come to ultra (admission is free anyway), but i'll admit it. At P60+ / liter, I'm staying my ass home and watch from TV. Let's all be practical now.
4:19
Gas at P60 / liter I meant to say.
4:20
plus it just started raining cats and dogs, so it appears I made the correct choice.
4:20
hoorah me.
4:20
ok off we go.
4:21
3 pt shot from UE

4:21
james martinez
4:21
oh no, the UE jerseys do not have names on their backs. i will have to rely on their jersey numbers when referring to them.
4:21
this is not good.
4:22
admu's al husseini seems to have greatly improved. this is a terrific dev't for admu.
4:23

chris tiu gets foul after a foulbaiting move underneath.
4:25
admu timeout (i think)
4:26
if tiu is graduating this year this has to be the big c. tiu year admu has been waiting for. And if husseini performs well they have more than a good chance. they also have a good rook i saw the other week, just forgot his name.
4:27

4:50
ue fastbreaks, long fouls off. player
4:50
ah theres marcy arellano
4:51
gerry esplana is in the audience.
