Catching up on stories I’ve ignored while learning the ins-and-outs of the NBA’s policy on firearms…
- Congratulations to Chris Bosh, who just became the leading scorer on Toronto Raptor history.
- I never get tired of watching big guys smash backboards… but Oklahoma’s 290-pound Keith “Tiny” Gallon loses style points for missing the shot.

- Nate Robinson is officially back in Mike D’Antoni’s rotation. Which means it’s Larry Hughes’ turn to start complaining.
- Evidence that playing overseas isn’t always what it’s cracked up to be… especially when the team stops cutting your paychecks.
- Not a fan of the fact that Tracy McGrady and Allen Iverson are in line to start the All-Star Game? Neither is Phil Jackson.
