Mirza Revisited, Blatche not worried, and Vote For #SkyKirkland: Shootaround

Posted on: January 10th, 2013 by Devin Kharpertian 2 Comments

Some Nets news & notes from around the web:

  • First, a light note: Courtney Kirkland AKA #SkyKirkland is a #4 seed in the official and GREAT SB Nation GIF Tournament hosted by Jon Bois. GO VOTE!

  • Stefan Bondy at the New York Daily News contends that it was never an issue of talent with Andray Blatche -- it was, and is, the stupidity.

  • Blatche, incidentally, is not worried at all about the ongoing investigation about an alleged sexual assault that occurred in his hotel suite.

  • Kris Humphries feels he is being misrepresented in the media: "He's focused on basketball and that's it."

  • Mirza: Revisited.

  • Rod Boone at Newsday notices a looser Deron Williams: "He's attacking the basket effectively, either finishing or finding his teammate. He's back to having fun, even in tense moments -- like in the closing minutes of last week's big win in Oklahoma City, when Keith Bogans badly missed a shot, and the two shared a chuckle as they walked to the bench."

  • Barclays Center unveiled a 70-foot mural visible from the arena's Dean Street entrance, designed by Fort Greene resident José Parlá.

Well Kris, I wish I could say you were focused on "just basketball."

I feel like the Kardashian's influence on stories is all over this. These unnamed sources say Hump's bragging. Believe me if he's bragging or even has said a word about the Kardashians someone would take a check for a quote at least or interview. It's such bad journalism and sleezy tabloid bs. The divorce is dragging out because they don't agree on how to dissolve it. That's it.
