It’s official, Reggie Miller and Marv Albert will be an exclusive broadcasting team. I have to admit I was a little upset that Reginald isn’t coming back for another year. It would have been so good to see him knocking down 3s in the post season one more time. And with the Celtics no less. But alas, it just wasn’t meant to be. The good news is that he has shown he is an excellent broadcaster and will be an awesome complement to Marv Albert.

It has been reported that Sean May will need season ending microfracture Surgery. Frankly, this sucks. I had high hopes for the Bobcats this year.

Now, not so much.

The oft unsung hero of Ben Wallace’s career, his headband, will make it’s triumphant return this season after Scott Skiles announced he will make an exception to his no headband rule for his all-star center. Immediately after the news broke, a collective high five was heard around the world. This news comes as a complete surprise to hoops fans after the headband had long been rumored to have stayed in Detroit.
