The Arsalan Kazemi Dunk Reel

The NBA draft played a huge role in shaping the 2013-14 76ers, and one of the most entertaining prospects we acquired during that period is Iranian-born Arsalan Kazemi. Originally drafted by the Washington Wizards, he was traded to the Sixers and has sort of played to the Philadelphia fan-base since arriving. Questions like this are going to get you a ton of Philly love – Question for my friends in Philadelphia, which one? pic.twitter.com/kRVrMs7Oee — Arsalan Kazemi (@kazemiworld) July 2, 2013 So, while we await the start of the season, gaze at his dunk reel in awe.

76ers Deny Hiring Brett Brown…. So Far

Welp… that was a bender of a night, and unfortunately, the lady we took home to bed turned out to be a grotesque, out-of-shape, Big-Momma’s-House esque female. What I’m saying is, general manager Sam Hinkie is now denying the report that the 76ers hired Brett Brown as their head coach. In spite of the crazy draft moves, we are still without a head coach, even though if you Google Brett Brown there’s still SEVERAL reports claiming that this is true. It sure makes it hard on us guys who passionately write about a pretty crappy basketball team on their…

Sixers Hire Brett Brown, Trade Jrue Holiday for Noel Nerlens

What is going on with the Sixers?? In one day, the 76ers organization traded their 23-year old All-Star point guard away, named a head coach, and received one of the most sought-after centers in the 2013 NBA Draft. Brett Brown was the Spur assistant coach and served under Greg Popovich for almost a decade. He also coached the 2012 Australian Olympic basketball team. I know absolutely nothing else about him. I’ll wait a few days to let this sink in and form my opinion, but if he’s anything like Pop, I’m on board. Jrue Holiday was traded in the…

Back On The Magic Johnson Hate Train

A few nights a week, I actually have some time to myself to sit and enjoy the Phillies game, read some sports blogs, and read some Tweets. If you don’t already know, I loathe Magic Johnson. I hate how everyone sucks up to him. I hate his analysis of basketball. I really hate his Tweets. It’s usually just some all-too-obvious critiques, so you can imagine the onslaught from last night’s blowout by the Spurs. For example: The Spurs were dominant against the Heat on both offense and defense in Game 3. #NBAFinals — Earvin Magic Johnson (@MagicJohnson) June 13,…

Are They Who We Thought They Were?

Fresh off the longest win-streak of the 2013 season, the Philadelphia Phillies are back at .500 (30-30) which leaves a very important question to be asked: Who are these guys? I don’t know. Charlie Manuel doesn’t know. Ruben Amaro Jr. definitely doesn’t know. In the not so distant future, the front office of this ball club is going to have to make a definite move that shapes the remainder of the season. Certainly, Domonic Brown is having the best season of his career. Leading the national league in home runs, being named the NL Player of the Month, and…

Welp, We’re Back Where We Started

Just a day after the miraculous 9th-inning rally over the Reds and elite closer Aroldis Chapman, the Phillies fell to the Marlins 5-1 and put up another poor offensive start. The rare highlight of the evening was Domonic Brown’s solo shot and stolen base. Rumor has it that the almost untouchable Chapman blew yesterday’s save because he ate too many pastries… according to Phillies’ español broadcaster Rickie Ricardo. Apparently, Mr. Ricardo had ordered a box of 100 cream cheese and guava pastries and presented them as a gift to Chapman. He ate 18 and then blew the save. If…
