It’s nice that KD will finally be on national TV tomorrow, along with Jennings who should be responsible for at least 5 GMs getting fired. Milwaukee will be a tough team by the end of the year and going forward. I am very impressed with Bogut and Jennings. These are two of the future teams in the league.

i have to be honest, i wasn’t that into the hornets. i went to a few games, but i knew they were leaving, so i didn’t get emotionally attached. so honestly, i wasn’t reading your coverage, but if i had to guess, i would assume it was insightful and thorough. when i first became aware of your blog, it was the beginning of the “OKC vs. Seattle” smack-talk sessions. and you always handled getting bashed by Seattlites with class. i wish i could have… it’s hilarious to read the comments for some of the posts in early 2008.

Donut, two-plus years? Where were you during the Hornets days? Or are you saying our coverage stunk back then? j/k. Seriously, though, I’ve been here a little more than four years and have done the NBA all four years. But the hiatus year between the Hornets leaving and the Sonics arriving did make me feel like a court reporter with all the Sonics stuff. Great experience, though. -DM-

did you feel like a legal reporter when you first got this gig?

Darnell:

Thanks for the report. The game was blacked out on the NBA Broadband and I think there will be more and more of that. A bummer. Just pray they don’t trade you to the Nets or Knicks. You have a plum coverage job.

Thanks. Living in NYC I appreciate your depth and quality of coverage. Chuck
