Jason Whitlock says that sending Shaq to Dallas is just good business for the NBA. I like Whitlock, and this was a good article, but … Nowitzki is better than Kobe? Come on, Jason.

Ohio State called Bobby Knight to tell him that they were no longer considering him for the job. That ends the possibility of a second coaching legend ending his career at OSU after slugging an opposing player. Instead, OSU will go after Marquette’s Tom Craen. They may reconsider when they realize that Dwyane Wade is…

Thieves broke into the Florida State football offices and stole their two national championship trophies. No word on whether the thieves took a dump on the floor.

The San Francisco has obtained a copy of Tim Montgomery’s testimony in the federal trial against BALCO and Victor Conte. In that testimony, Montgomery admits to taking HGH and THG. He also says that Conte told him that he supplied steroids to Barry Bonds. This testimony is completely opposite to the public statements by Montgomery.…

NC State offered a basketball scholarship to 15-year-old recruit Eric Wallace of Kernersville, NC. It’s pretty young to commit to a guy, but that’s the way the game works now, especially for programs like State who can’t always wait on a top talent.

Maryland has released their plan for improving fan behavior at games. The plan was created by a student task force and includes only voluntary compliance. I think that’s a good first step – college students should be able to police themselves.

Marcus Melvin is waiting for tomorrow’s NBA draft. He won’t be surprised if he isn’t drafted, but he still thinks he can can make it. I’m not sure what I think. He’s very skilled, but I’m not quite sure he has NBA-caliber talent. If he makes it, it’ll be as a glue guy like former…

This is an interesting article about a camp run by the NBA Players Association for top high school ballers. The camp has sessions where they try to teach the players’ parents to stay actively involved in the recruiting process. It’s a great message, but I wonder why it’s coming from an NBA-based organization and not…

Jason (Jay) Williams is still fighting to recover from his motorcycle accident injuries and return to the NBA. I wish him luck, but I’m pretty skeptical.
