You Should Probably Check This Out
Jan 4, 2010 Tooting My Horn
I don’t really like to toot my own horn…ok, that’s a lie…I love to toot my own horn. Which is why I am posting about the new basketball blog that I started, NBAPlaybook.com. This is a NBA blog that I started that will focus more on the Xs and Os of the game, which is why I think that it will be unique.
There is a lot of stuff over there that you might be familiar with, because in all honesty, it is the same kind of stuff I do here, just with the whole NBA in mind instead of just focusing on the Nets. I’d really appreciate it if you took the time out to check it out, and if you like it, add it to your RSS reader.
One final note, this isn’t going to take away from my posting here. I am doing this new blog because I have a fair amount of free time (being unemployed helps with that), so I don’t see the new site taking away from the time I have to focus on NetsAreScorching. I have already told Mark to kick my ass if I fall behind in my duties here, so that won’t be a problem.
Again, NBAPlaybook.com!
Check Me Out Over @ The Daily Dime
Dec 29, 2009 Tooting My Horn, Yi
I was once again asked to do something on Yi for ESPN’s Daily Dime. Here is a small excerpt:
When Yi Jianlian put up 22 points and 8 rebounds in his return from a sprained right knee against Minnesota on Dec. 23, I was excited. However, that excitement quickly turned into trepidation. Yi has had performances like this in the past, the problem is that he hasn’t been able to do it night in and night out. Even though it is a small sample size, the past three games are starting to ease my worries, because he is now showing that he can perform on a consistent basis.

Check Me Out Over At The Daily Dime
Dec 24, 2009 Tooting My Horn
If you guys don’t include ESPN’s Daily Dime as part of your morning basketball intake you need to start. It has got everything you need to recap the previous night’s action in the NBA. It has stats, articles from ESPN.com and TrueHoop Network writers, and a chat recap.
I was allowed to do some stuff for them today, so head on over there:

You can find some Nets related stuff at #1 and #7. I wrote about what I want the Nets to get for Christmas and Yi’s return.
Losing Has Its Rewards
Dec 3, 2009 Tooting My Horn, WOO-HOO! Congrats!, WOOOO!!!!
Well, for bloggers at least. Here is an e-mail that popped up in my inbox today:
“Guys – everyday on SportsNation we name a site we like as our site of the day, and in lieu of the Nets history-making game last night, you’re our big winner. Feel free to tell your readers. We’re on at 4pm ET on ESPN2 today. And Michelle Beadle said she watched the whole game last night and sends her condolences.
Chris Healey
Associate Producer, SportsNation”

Listen To Me On WHEN Syracuse
Nov 11, 2009 Tooting My Horn
I will be on Sports Radio 620 WHEN in Syracuse today around 3:45. I will be talking about the Nets winless start, their outlook going forward, that night’s game with Philadelphia, and I might even touch on some Atlantic Division stuff, not sure though.
I don’t know how many readers we have from Syracuse, but if you get that station check it out. I do believe they stream as well, but I am not positive.
If anything it should be interesting. Check it out if you can!

Chat About The Nets With ESPN and NetsAreScorching
Oct 12, 2009 ESPN, Tooting My Horn, Truehoop Network
Today at 12:30 I will have the honor of joining Chris Sheridan in a chat over at ESPN about the New Jersey Nets. It will run until 1:00, and it is in Cover-It-Live format (you guys should remember that from our Draft Lottery/Draft Day chats). Come over and ask your questions and Chris and I will answer them.
UPDATE: I just wanted to say thanks to all of you guys who showed up. There were a lot of Nets fans and it was a pleasant surprise! Also I would like to say sorry if I didn’t get to your question, it was a little crazy in there from that standpoint…so many…
