    New Article: What Could Have Been? If Nash and Nowitzki Were Still Teammates

    Watching Steve Nash direct the Suns offense is a thing of beauty. The way he maneuvers between defenders reminds me of a skilled touring car driver swerving in and out of traffic, interchangeably ...

    New Article: Dirk Nowitzki: From MVP to Under-The-Radar Superstar

    Let's go back two-and-a-half years to April 2007. To the objection of many (myself included), Dallas Mavericks forward Dirk Nowitzki appeared to be a mortal lock to win the MVP award...
