After a fantastic season of Euroleague basketball, one weekend of mayhem in Milano will decide the champion. While the seven-game series format leading up to the Final Four has proven undeniably exciting (and profitable), there is a special charm to the Euroleague’s one-and-done Final Four format that gives off a very comparative feeling to the NCAA Final Four. For the first time since 2006, neither of the Greek powerhouses – Olympiacos and Panathinaikos – will be represented in the Final Four. Instead,
PODCAST: Who will coach the Knicks if Mike Woodson is fired?
I already told you yesterday that Mike Woodson needs to lead the Knicks into the playoffs to keep his job. No easy task, but when Phil Jackson says repeatedly that he expects this year’s team to make the postseason, the bar has been set. And if the Knicks fail? Well, there will be a new coach at the helm, and since Jackson is not ingratiated with the larger coaching fraternities out there, you can cross out names such as Jeff Van Gundy, Stan Van
Who Will Coach the Celtics? Why not David Blatt?
With Doc Rivers’ departure from the Celtics imminent, the question needs to be asked: Who will be the next coach for Boston? With Danny Ainge taking out the dynamite, looking to trade or buyout Paul Pierce and then deciding what to do with Kevin Garnett (no-trade clause) and Rajon Rondo (head case), the Celtics are going to be a rebuilding team for the forseeable future. You think George Karl or Lionel Hollins want any part of that? I do not. [Read more…]
Poll: Who will be next coach of Brooklyn Nets?
I am publishing a poll. I have already cast the first vote. Based upon what I am hearing from my sources, I think Phil Jackson is going to be the next coach of the Brooklyn Nets — provided Mikhail Prokhorov ponies up money-wise. If you want to believe in the Kelvin Sampson shenanigans, go ahead. Sampson is a choice …. but not mine. [Read more…]
Colangelo likes Doc Rivers, not David Blatt, as next Team USA coach
Doc Rivers is one of the top choices — of not the top choice — to become the next coach of Team USA. This is a subject that was speculated upon in the immediate aftermath of Team USA’s gold medal triumph in London, and there is reason to believe it is closer to becoming a reality. Why? Take a look at the transcript below from Colangelo’s recent interview on SheridanHoopsRadio. When the subject of who would replace Mike Krzyzewski was raised, Colangelo threw Rivers’

Olympics: Top 5 Olympic Questions With Pool Play Ending
So we’re all getting a reminder of how things are really day-to-day in the Olympics, eh? A couple days ago, Carmelo Anthony had the new U.S. Olympics scoring record (37) and Team USA was considered unbeatable after they out Dream Teamed the original Dream Team and beat Nigeria by 83. Then we get through Day 4 of the competition, and the world has turned upside down. The single highest-scoring game now belongs to Patty Mills of Australia, who dropped 39 on Great
SH Blog: Was Matt Barnes stalked by a Manhattan Beach cop?
I do not usually write our blog, leaving that task in the capable hands of our bloggers, Jim Park and Dan Malone. But I also do not usually watch the Olympics on TV, especially not on NBC. I haven’t been on by sofa watching the Olympics since 1992, and back then I believe my sofa might have been a futon. But here I am back in New York after ditching the idea of going to London as uncredentialed media in the
