Fantasy Basketball 2012: Stray Observations of the Fantasy Basketball Landscape
Yesterday, I made the pilgrimage to Yahoo! and ESPN to try my hand at some mock drafts. Part of this journey was to prepare myself for a few upcoming fantasy leagues -- including one you'll be reading about extensively in the near future (#teaserzomg!) -- but mostly it was to see if the industry...

Sam Still An Option
By now you have heard that the Celtics have agreed to trade Sam Cassell and cash for a "heavily protected" 2nd round pick. Note: The deal isn't done yet, and there are still details to work out, but the Sac Bee is confirming the story. It is safe to say that Danny is setting the table for...

You've Been Celtics'd
You have to give the folks at Reebok credit. The Rondo'd ad campaign was well done. In fact it inspired me to make verbs out of the rest of the Celtics.
