Tweet of the Day: Jerry Stackhouse

by

How would you like to hear someone say that you were hired just to look pretty? While I am sure there are plenty of jobs out there for which that is the only requirement, generally that is not the qualification for a professional male athlete. Something similar was said of Brooklyn Nets guard Jerry Stackhouse, he took it in stride.

"The plan was for Stackhouse to mostly sit at the end of the bench in a lot of handsome, wide shouldered suits" LOL wasn't my plan!@

Kobe Bryant, aging and all, is somehow defying all odds this season on the offensive end. Despite playing in a league featuring dominant scorers like Kevin Durant and LeBron James, it has been the 34-year-old guard who has led the league in scoring with 28 points on 49 percent shooting – by far the best shooting percentage of his career. Not even Michael Jordan shot this well at the age of 34. Logic says your scoring is supposed to diminish

Dwight Howard better figure out his ft shooting. He shoots them like shaq did but he's nowhere near as dominant as shaq was. #Lakers #NBA

Wally Szczerbiak
It’s a harsh way of making comparisons (although Shaquille O’Neal would be proud), but former player and current MSG Network analyst Wally Szczerbiak was quite frank about Dwight Howard, whose free throw shooting has been comically bad in his first season with the Los Angeles Lakers. It’s no secret that the big man’s biggest struggle comes from the stripe, but over the past couple of seasons, he has become a true liability. Howard leads the league in free throw attempts

The Hornets future in New Orleans is expected to soon come to an end. No, the team is not moving elsewhere. They are, however, expected to change their team name. If you haven’t heard about it yet, just check out the reaction from Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry.

Pelicans?? Ready to see the mascot

The Portland Trailblazers have played quite a number of crazy games this season, and Monday was no exception. Down by 18 points against the Charlotte Bobcats with less than six minutes remaining in the game, the Blazers somehow managed  to come back and send the contest into overtime, before coming out with a 118-112 victory. It marked the second straight game where the contest went into extra session – they managed to win against the Cleveland Cavaliers in double-overtime on Saturday,

The New York Knicks continued their impressive play with a 106 – 99 win against the Phoenix Suns on Sunday afternoon. The victory marks a 12-4 start (7-0 at Madison Square Garden) for the Knicks this season. While the win marks their third straight after dropping four of their previous seven games following their impressive 6-0 start, it was not without its pitfalls. Knicks point guard Raymond Felton injured his left thumb in the victory and is now listed as day-to-day. Monday afternoon Knicks

I had the misfortune of attending Marquette University from 1983 through 1987, a time when the basketball program took a tumble that didn’t end for another decade — long before Dwyane Wade, Novak, or any of the other recent pros from the program made the school a factory for NBA talent.
