Find out how the league scoring system works here, get league updates on NBAmmkay.tumblr.com, and snoop around the actual Yahoo! Sports Fantasy Basketball league here.

– Chris Kaman via HoopsWorld.com
Wow. I mean, WoW. Talk about being open and honest. Chris Kaman is basically admitting that he would have traded himself for Chris Paul too.
I suggest reading the rest of the article. You won’t find many athletes speak this candidly or understand their position and...

Players who signed overseas (with no opt-out...

It’s obviously not the real thing, but for those of you like me who are gonna lose their minds without basketball, it’ll be something to read and an interesting experiment.
I’ll write the posts here and I’ll...

And here it is, in all it’s typical orange and blue, uh, glory, I guess:

Gilbert Arenas is a professional basketball player. A professional basketball player who sometimes isn’t allowed to play professional basketball because he occasionally brings loaded guns into his professional basketball player locker room and points said loaded guns at his professional basketball player teammates.
