WEEKLY ROUND UP
March 13, 2009 by Andy
Candace Parker, the Female Jordan?
Overall the years, the WNBA has consistently had low ratings, but can Candace Parker change all that? The MVP and Los Angeles Sparks star has the best selling jersey in the league.
Many sponsors like McDonalds and Adidas are banking on her marketability. Odds are slim that she can break through to be a crossover star but only time will tell.
Shady Recruiting Processes
A behind the scenes look into underhanded recruiting process that agents undertake to secure NBA talent. Agencies are doing whatever it takes to gain access to big-name clients. It’s a great look at the underbelly of the recruiting process.
D-Wade Spectacular Buzzer Beater
Dwyane Wade is making this MVP race close as he leads the Miami Heat to another victory with an amazing buzzer beater against the Chicago Bulls. Simply unbelieva-bull.
Trevor Ariza Foul On Rudy Fernandez
Flagrant or Dirty? You decide.
Get Rid of Fight Rule
David Stern must eliminate the vicinity rule for fights before he stops another team’s chance to advance to the NBA Finals. Lamar Odom was recently suspended for coming off the bench in a skirmish between the Lakers and Trailblazers after a Trevor Ariza flagrant on Rudy Fernandez. This rule needs to change from a suspension to a fine.
