    I bet his foot alone weight that much.

    I once saw a replica of Shaq's shoe as a kid... it was monstrous and unbelievably huge.

    I'm waiting for the day that JVG is no longer announcing for ESPN.

    TNT commentary kicks the shit out of ESPN's.

    Great index of restricted and unrestricted players for this years free agent market and next years:

    http://espn.go.com/nba/news/story?page=FreeAgents-11-12

    Looks like there are plenty of players on my team's (Utah Jazz) roster that are unrestricted. I'd let a couple go and use the space to try and acquire some better pieces. Utah could make some good moves and really shorten their rebuilding process if they are smart with what they've got.

    not a very good free agent class...guess that means somebody will over pay for nene.

    speaking of odd contracts....

    i read OK was talking about giving westbrook a max deal...i thought i read going forward, only one player would be allowed a max deal...and you would think it would be durrant...or mabye because he signed a deal before the lockout....hmm.

    Westbrook needs to improve his on-court IQ. I was surprised at some of the things he did in the playoffs last year. :shock:

    True Hoop started May 2005. My old blog began Oct. 2004 but I stopped in 2007 due to time constraints and there was only so many ways I can write Knicks stink for fun. If I had known that things like the True Hoop network were coming down the bend and blogs exploding like they did, I'd have stuck with it.

    I think it's all part of the truehoop network. I knew a lot of those guys, but didn't do it long enough to even be considered for it because of work/life getting in the way. The event I went to, gave me the itch to get back into the NBA blogging game.
