Perry’s Top 10 NBA players

Jan. 25, 2009   14 Comments  

I need to make a few changes from last year’s Top ten players in the NBA. 10. Dirk Nowitzki: Dirk beats out Danny Granger because he’s been performing at a high level for more seasons. And also because he’s a better player. Granger is having a great year, but don’t be mesmerized by a player [...]

Report: Brand to sign with 76ers

July 9, 2008   Leave a Comment  

ESPN is reporting, “NBA front-office sources told ESPN.com on Tuesday that Brand has informed the Sixers that he will accept a five-year deal worth an estimated $82 million.” Brand and the Sixers do indeed have to wait until the clock strikes midnight to make everything official. If this is all true and Brand signs with [...]

Perry’s NBA mock draft

June 25, 2008   Leave a Comment  

I will be constantly updating this and you can keep checking in for my latest version here. I also have all good intentions to live blog the NBA Draft tomorrow starting at 7 p.m. should I not pass out on Early Times whiskey first. Actually, the only reason it wouldn’t happen is if I have technical difficulties.

In the live blog, I will dish out my thoughts on the picks and make sure I put in writing every ridiculous thing that comes out of the mouths of Mark Jackson and Jeff Van Gundy.

So here’s Blast’s live draft:

Boston fans one game away from being more annoying

June 13, 2008   2 Comments  

After overcoming a 24-point deficit last night against the Los Angeles Lakers, the Boston Celtics are on the brink of another NBA Championship. With just one more win, Boston fans will become exponentially more obnoxious and annoying. The Celtics were phenomenal Thursday night as they knocked of the Lakers 97-91 to take a 3-1 lead [...]

Perry’s take: Celtics win Game 1

June 6, 2008   Leave a Comment  

The Boston Celtics clamped down on defense in the second half, outscoring the Lakers 52-37 leading them to a 98-88 Game 1 victory. I’m not going to get into this game too much, because the best is still to come with both of these teams still feeling each other out. But here’s a couple thoughts [...]

Perry’s non-traditional NBA Finals prediction

June 5, 2008   1 Comment  

Oddly enough I received an email today from a third party that sent me a transcript (verbatim) of an interesting meeting that happened today. Apparently, Paul Pierce called a joint meeting between the Celtics and the Lakers today after both teams’ shoot-arounds to discuss the NBA Finals. It was a quick meeting, but I wanted [...]

Samuel Dalembert in bad “Speed Racer” deal

June 2, 2008   Leave a Comment  

The “D” in Sammy D. does not stand for “details,” apparently. As in, the detail that his business partners didn’t actually have the rights to license products and merchandise for “Speed Racer,” despite the Philadelphia 76ers center investing more than a million dollars in the project back in 2006. Well, the seven-footer wants some money [...]
