Swish. Man, it was good to see Carmelo Anthony’s 19-footer fall sweetly through the net with 0.5 seconds left on the clock last night. Before Melo’s heroics, the game looked like a typical Knick collapse from days of yore. Up 10 with just over three minutes to go, the Knicks managed to let their lead dwindle away Read the rest of this entry »

Last night, around 11 p.m., Carmelo Anthony was finally traded to the New York Knicks. It took several months of dizzying rumors, involved almost half the teams in the league and allowed Isiah Thomas to worm his way back into James Dolan’s ear, but it’s finally done. Read the rest of this entry »

I’ve never been accused of being the most sentimental person in the world, but I too remember my first. My first Eastbay, that is. I was either 8 or 9 and headed off to baseball practice when I decided to go through the pile of mail on the table. Like I said, being 8 or 9, I wasn’t expecting much since my birthday was still a month or so away.

As if Nuggets and, coincidentally, Bulls fans needed more reason to fear Melo’s move to Manhattan, the on-court star continues his push to establish his name off the court with the Become Legendary mixtape. Given away to coincide with the release of latest sig shoe, the Melo M7, the compilation is co-branded by Jordan Brand & Melo’s Krossover Entertainment and packed with features.

Bulls.com:

“With Derrick Rose, Joakim Noah and Carlos Boozer, all potential All-Stars, it would seem to be the Bulls more than any team. Some around James are wondering now if he made a mistake by going to Miami with so little around him, especially no front court size as the Heat has been getting dominated on the boards, like 47-32 in their Saturday loss to Memphis, and with Dwyane Wade soon to be 29 and perhaps feeling the effects of so many falls and previous injuries and fragile pieces Read the rest of this entry »

The NBA season is finally set to get underway and TSS’s sports heads couldn’t be happier. We’re in for eight months worth of quality ball if this year’s soap opera of an off season is any indication. Miami is public enemy number one with the league’s latest big three in Chris Bosh, Dwyane Wade and Lebron James already eyeing the Larry O’Brien trophy. Meanwhile, L.A.’s still the defending champs looking for a three-peat and the East finally has more competition in tow Read the rest of this entry »

Rise and give honor to Nike for continuously owning my paychecks for years. It’s overwhelming when I go to do these recaps of events of this magnitude. Most of the World Basketball Festival’s larger spectacles — the televised match-up between USA & France at Madison Square Garden, Team USA’s intersquad game on a custom stage at Radio City followed by Jay-Z’s performance, the screening of Air Force 1: Anatomy Of An Urban Legend at The Apollo — all go without adjectives to describe how once-in-a-lifetime they feel in the moment.

My feet have seen blocks and miles. My eyes have engaged in a battle of attrition, attempting to take in all the tall buildings and athletes. Nike’s vision for the World Basketball Festival has come to fruition, whirling caravans of journalists, photographers and bloggers around NYC.

My pics from yesterday are stored on my other camera, and I’ll access them later, but here’s a couple from yesterday’s media event at Radio City Music Hall, which included the full 2010 squad, and luminaries from Nike and USA Basketball. Below, there’s also footage of Jay’s full performance from last night. Read the rest of this entry »
