I spent almost all day in New Orleans East.

This is not a glamorous part of New Orleans. Do you remember when, after Katrina, there were some plans publicized to turn some residential areas into park land? Some of that talk was about this part of the city.

This morning we drove to a church out on Lake Forest Boulevard that is more or less surrounded by ruined houses. The Aposto...

The NBA has reached its midway point and that means it's time to look at the potential MVP candidates so far for this season. You can look at the MVP any way you want to; most valuable to the team, most valuable to the league, etc. I look at it as how would their team look without them? So your

Western Teams Are Green With Envy (via Yardbarker)

Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 +0100
Dirtlocker points for: Pau Gasol, Devean George, Jason Kidd

In the span of two weeks, Pau Gasol, Shaquille O'Neal, and Jason Kidd* have all been traded to the Western Conference. Many pundits assume that the latest two deals were made by the Suns and Mavs to counter the Lakers' big move. That may be true in part, but I see a bigger picture catalyst to all these deals. Teams are witnessing the success the Celtics have had in blending three star players t...

The NBA Closer is written by Matt McHale, who cannot freaking believe that Devean George - Devean George!! - foiled Jason Kidd's trade to Dallas. Wow. When he's not paralyzed with disbelief, he can be found sitting there wit...

Jeff Caplan of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram: "Two weeks ago, [Devean] George complained about his lack of playing time and said he'd prefer to be traded if he was not going to be a part of Johnson's rotation. Since then, George has logged about 20 minutes a game and produced while Stackhouse has b...

The interest and intrigue going into the second half of the NBA season will be like none other in recent memory. With the Western Conference as wide open as the Grand Canyon, teams are putting all their chips on the table and seizing the opportunity at hand. Of course, the Lakers are an

Sixers Coach Have Some Fun With Aaron McKie (via The 700 Level)

Dirtlocker points for: Pau Gasol, Aaron McKie

The Sixers won their fifth (!) straight game last night completing their longest home stand of the season without a loss. Memphis is a rather pathetic team and they actually employ former Sixer Aaron McKie. McKie, of course, was a...

Jason Kidd Traded to Dallas Mavericks for Harris, Stackhouse (via Yardbarker)

Dirtlocker points for: Maurice Ager, Malik Allen, DeSagana Diop, Pau Gasol, Devean George, Devin Harris, Jason Kidd, Jerry Stackhouse

The Dallas Mavericks have apparently countered the trades for Pau Gasol and Shaquille O'Neal by acquiring future Hall of Famer Jason Kidd and Malik Allen from the New Jersey Nets in exchange for budding young guard Devin Harris, Jerry Stackhouse, Devean George, DeSagana Diop, Maurice Ager, two first-round picks, and $3 million. It was an extremely steep price to pay for Kidd, especially conside...

What If C's Traded for Gasol, Not KG? (via Yardbarker)

Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 +0100
Dirtlocker points for: Pau Gasol

...the real reason I'm bringing all this up isn't because I don't think we should've traded Big Al for KG (obviously that was a good trade) -- but had we not jumped on that opportunity, there may have been another had we just waited. And yes, I'm talking about Pau Gasol. Now, what I'd like to know is... would you rather have a roster like that than the one we currently have?

With the NBA's trade deadline quickly approaching on February 21st, I want to take a look at what teams have done so far. The league has been criticized in the past for boring deadlines where franchises are afraid to make a big splash and look stupid if the deal doesn't work out for them, but
