March 25, 2011 by Joel Huerto 2 Comments

NBA studio analyst Kenny Smith, who is moonlighting as a college basketball expert this month, admitted an oversight on Thursday night. Smith said he owes Arizona’s Derrick Williams an apology for underestimating his talents. “Derrick Williams is a man,” Smith said. After the 6-foot-8, 240-pound sophomore forward put together the most impressive game of the … [Read more…]

MOREHEAD STATE HEADS HUGE UPSETS

March 19, 2011 by Joel Huerto Leave a Comment

Not counting the play-in games that happened earlier in the week, the first round of the 2011 NCAA men’s basketball tournament has been nothing short of spectacular. Matt Howard’s put-back lifted Butler over Old Dominion and Temple’s Juan Fernandez beat the buzzer against Penn State. But the best buzzer-beater from the opening week was executed … [Read more…]

ROSE EXPLAINS ‘UNCLE TOM’ COMMENT

March 17, 2011 by Joel Huerto Leave a Comment

First of, I like Jalen Rose. He’s very well-spoken and honest. Not enough athletes today spew opinions with brutal honesty, and Rose is in the minority. However, Rose went a little too far with his raw, uncensored commentary regarding the black players on Duke University in ESPN’s documentary feature on “The Fab Five” that aired … [Read more…]

KRZYZEWSKI: DURANT IS A SUPERSTAR

September 15, 2010 by Joel Huerto 1 Comment

Coach Mike Krzyzewski recently visited with ESPN’s Mike & Mike Show and talked about 21-year-old phenom Kevin Durant and the significance of winning a world championship. Krzyzewski says winning a gold medal at the FIBA World Championships is a greater accomplishment than winning Olympic gold simply because of the competition. “It’s actually bigger because it’s … [Read more…]

IS COUSINS THE NEXT MOSES MALONE?

July 14, 2010 by Joel Huerto Leave a Comment

When it comes to evaluating basketball talent, there are few in the NBA who are better than Geoff Petrie. The Sacramento Kings’ president of basketball operations was responsible for drafting Peja Stojakovic, Hedo Turkoglu, Gerald Wallace, Jason Williams, Kevin Martin and 2010 NBA Rookie of the Year Tyreke Evans.

Evan Turner and Derrick Favors did not have spectacular professional debuts, but they were not complete disasters either.

June 23, 2010 by Joel Huerto Leave a Comment

The NBA’s version of the New York State Lotto will commence Thursday night at NYC and Commissioner David Stern will be front and center.

THANK YOU, COACH WOODEN

June 5, 2010 by Joel Huerto Leave a Comment

John R. Wooden died on June 4, 2010. He was 99 years old. That’s 99 amazing years for a man who I consider as the greatest coach in sports and one of the most influential people in the world. I could recite all of Wooden’s accomplishments, but his impact went beyond statistics, records and championships. … [Read more…]
