By J.A. Adande When Linas Kleiza left the NBA to sign with Olympiakos in Greece it didn’t generate nearly as much attention as when Josh Childress signed with the team last year. No one speculated this was an indication of things to come. Kleiza didn’t spend Five Good Minutes with Kornheiser and Wilbon on “Pardon the Interruption.” We’re not used to young American players...
The Nuggets have a lot of tattoos, play emotional, crazy and sometimes rough, and yes, harbor individuals who have had legal troubles. That means fans can call them "thugs" and it's OK. I also never understood why George Karl gets let off the hook for that. He's tall, intimidating, and has eyes that could pierce a brick wall. That's your Swedish docks enforcer from central casting right...

by Tom Ziller Filed under: Nuggets , NBA Hair Watch NBA FanHouse walks through the Valley of the Most Likely ; we shall fear no topic. Chris Andersen -- better known as The Birdman -- has a long way to grow before gaining the beard notoriety of The Hangover actor and comedian Zach Galifianakis, but I think he can pull it off (albeit in a light shade). In August, on occasion of his basketball camp...
The replacement referees were competent. Carlos Boozer heard cheers from the crowd. Those were the two things to take away from the Jazz's preseason opener Thursday, a game that should best be forgotten by lunch Friday. With overseas trips, the Jazz and the Nuggets played their first preseason game less than a week after opening training camp. Neither Kenyon Martin nor J.R. Smith played for Denver,...
There are 50 days left 'til the NBA Season gets under way, and you can bet I'm counting the days down. To make the process go a little faster, with each waning day I'm throwing up my list of (likely) top 50 NBA players for this season. We'll get to the logistics in a sec, but let's let the Birdman fly first.The Skinny: Chris Andersen came back from (an undisclosed) drug rehab suspension last season...
If you were describing the circumstances by which an NBA team would spend $82 million in payroll this season, the Denver Nuggets instantly would jump to mind as past luxury-tax payers coming off a run to the Western Conference finals. And if you were describing the circumstances by which a team would sell draft picks, neglect to re-sign players and do everything possible to trim payroll, the Jazz would...
The FOXSports.com NBA analyst and former basketball coach categorizes Chris Andersen, Gilbert Arenas, Carlos Boozer, Chris Bosh, Marcus Camby, Al Harrington, Stephen Jackson, and Brad Miller, among others, as “grossly over-valued, not-so superstars.” Here’s Rosen’s take on Chris Paul: There’s no doubt that CP3 has always been a truly great passer and has also worked diligently...
DeJuan missed game two of the NBA Summer League. With his contract all inked up like Chris Andersen , he got after it in game three. BFO (Blair Force One) had 20 points and 5 rebounds in 27 minutes of play. He got the post-game interview. He got the MYSA story . He was Tweeted by David Thorpe . But did he get the ATS Thumbs Up? Overall, yes, but three things really concern me. ATS Causes For Concern...
