Chuck Person spent the latest of his 25 years in the NBA as a player and coach as a special assistant coach on Phil Jackson’s staff last season, making such a positive impact that he was named a full-time assistant coach on Aug. 2. Person, known as “The Rifleman” during a 13-year playing career that began with a Rookie of the Year award for the 1986-87 season, joined us on the Popcorn Machine to discuss his basketball past, his relationship with Ron Artest and Kobe Bryant and what he’s learned from Jackson thus far.

Those FIBA rankings from Fanhouse are a Joke.
"El Hombre es esclavo de lo que dice y Amo de lo que calla"
why?
Lebron has the ball, dribbles down the court splitting the lakers defenders with 5 seconds left on the clock with the game on the line in the 2011 nba finals game 7! Lebron pulls up from deep, in kobes face and drains the three pointer! HEAT WIN HEAT WIN!!! 89-88!!!!! BEEP BEEP BEEP then Lebrons alarm goes off and he wakes up and goes downstairs to eat a delicious breakfast made by Lebrons mom and Delonte West.

Because
We have beaten the argentinian and the brazilian team as currently constructed, and we have a much better team now with Peavy and Balkman. I’m cool with the 10 spot in the fiba ranks, but to drop us 3 spots because of what. I know that those are meaningless ranks, but geez give some respect to the 100×35. Fin de mi discurso.

the Adam Morrison article is kinda sad....
GO AMMO!!!
I don't do it for your thanks, I do it because I had a calling, but I do love the support you give me and my Soldiers.
The thing holding Morrison back is his mellow, unconfident approach.
Perhaps I’m misreading him, but I would think anyone with AmMo’s talent would say “I’m going to keep working hard and I know I’ll eventually get picked up by a team.” A lackluster performance is one thing, but a lackluster attitude compound’s the issue.
All the best to him.

Fascinating article on Gasol's love of medicine
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/columns/story?columnist=friend_tom&page=drgasol-100806
Definitely a must read. OTL stuff like this is great.
In November 1991, at his Barcelona grade school, Gasol learned that one of his idols, Earvin “Magic” Johnson, had HIV. He remembers feeling flushed and wanting to be alone. Magic, Larry Bird and Michael Jordan were all his heroes, and he was convinced he would now have to subtract one.
“I thought, ’He’s going to die,’” Gasol says. “At that time, HIV … AIDS equaled death. I was wandering around school, just thinking about it, just wow. There was a lot of speculation on how you can catch it. You were afraid of sipping on somebody’s bottle of Coke or eating off the same plate. Things like that or saliva. Is it transmitted by blood only? As an 11-year-old, it’s a lot to take. It had an impact.”
At home, he went looking for answers. His mother, Marisa, was a physician, and his father, Agusti, was a nurse, and he asked them if Johnson would be alive in the 21st century. They couldn’t guarantee it.
He decided, at that very moment, to fix the problem. He decided, right then, to become a doctor.
“I wanted to find the cure,” Gasol says. "I wanted to be able to find the cure for major sicknesses. I wanted to find the cure for cancer. I was an 11-year-old dreaming at the time.
“When they’d ask me what I wanted to be, I’d say doctor. I wanted to be a scientist. That was my answer. I always enjoyed biology, science — math even. The dream I had was that it would be nice to cure lives and save people’s lives. I didn’t know how … but it was something I pictured.”
To secure ourselves against defeat lies in our own hands, but the opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself.

LOL at the Clippers
The Cheapskate claims he got tricked into signing an incompetent idiot GM/coach, and the incompetent idiot GM/coach claims that he were tricked into signing a 5 year / 22 Mil contract and want the remaining 6 Mil.
Oh Clippers, you always find ways to make my smile~ =)
Today's sports media excels at over-reaction to a single event and specializes in hyperboles. But hey, it's that or my biochem textbook...
Well then the Knicks should make you laugh.
They just hired Isaiah Thomas as a part-time consultant.

Rome's shows
Are completely unlistenable and unwatchable.
"Lebron has the ball, dribbles down the court, splitting the Lakers defenders with 5 seconds left on the clock with the game on the line in the 2011 NBA Finals Game 7! Lebron pulls up from deep, in Kobe's face and drains the three pointer! HEAT WIN HEAT WIN!!! 89-88!!!!!
...BEEP BEEP BEEP...BEEP BEEP BEEP...
Then Lebron's alarm goes off and he wakes up and goes downstairs to eat a delicious breakfast made by his mom and Delonte West."
He seems so angry and tightly wound.
His lips barely move when he talks because his jaw is so stiff with rage. Is that an act?

The article on Carmelo being an elite player is just lame.
Of course he is….if he wasn’t why do we go get a guy to help shut him and other “elite” players down. I just can’t get behind every article out there during the off season to break down kick ass BBallers just because they got nothing to write about. And saying BOSH is a better player is just insane by any stretch of the imagination.
When defenses go out of their way to limit a certain player EVERY time they play them, said player is pretty damn elite in my book.
I don't do it for your thanks, I do it because I had a calling, but I do love the support you give me and my Soldiers.
The big thing missing from Haberstroh's analysis
Was the ridiculous amount of free throws Melo draws. Sure, he’s not ideally efficient for such a versatile player, but he’s getting fouled an awful lot every time he puts the ball on the floor from the triple threat position.

that keep people thinking “advanced stat” guy is a joke.

Or
when a writer from Liberty Ballers uses so-called efficiency ratings to tell Twitter world Andre Iguodala is better than ‘Melo, and that ’Melo isn’t even Top 15.
