Thank You SB Nation and All of You

by Jeremy on Jan 2, 2009 1:26 AM MST in Extras

I have made the very difficult decision to start a new Nuggets blog and it is with a great deal of sadness that I announce this will be my last post on Pickaxe and Roll.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank SB Nation for the opportunity they gave me to run this blog and work with what is currently the best group of NBA bloggers on the internet. SB Nation is a first class organization that only cares about promoting great blogging and I will always appreciate my time here. I leave with nothing but a great respect and good feelings towards the network.

Thank you to everyone at SB Nation and thank you to all of you who have read, commented, posted and spread the word about Pickaxe and Roll. I owe you all a debt of gratitude for making this blog what it is.

I struggled with the appropriateness of declaring the launch of my new blog here on SB Nation’s platform and after a great deal of thought I decided to take the middle of the road. Instead of ignoring it or putting the name in big bold letters I will just say if you are interested in visiting it you can click here.

Well I am sorry to see you leave

I had always enjoyed your analysis and posts, I am not technically as proficient in understanding basketball as others on this site, I always enjoyed the breakdowns you gave. Very insightful and helpful for the none basketball junkie but just casual fan.

I don’t stop by as often as I did last season, but for a guy who literally wanted to stop by today and make a debatable statement like, “Chris Andersen is diesel” I wasn’t expecting this. Good luck on the new site. You’ve been bookmarked.

STIFF LIST (as of 4/26 by Andrew Feinstein)

1. METTA WORLD PEACE

Metta resorted back to Ron Ron last Sunday by clubbing James Hardenwith an "inadvertent celebratory elbow", landing him a 7-game suspension. Apparently, changing his name didn't prevent NBA commissioner David Stern from overlooking Metta's past behavior problems.

2. CHARLOTTE BOBCATS

The 'Cats are on the verge of securing the worst winning percentage in NBA history. Given that the guy who runs the team - Michael Jordan - had previously drafted Kwame Brown and Adam Morrison, should this really be a shock?

3. OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER
The team that was supposedly built to overcome the lockout-shortened season managed to lose 7 of its last 14 games, ceding the Western Conference's 1-seed to the Spurs in the process. Their reward might be a first round matchup with defending champion Dallas.

4. BILLY HUNTER AND DEREK FISHER

With report after report coming out about NBPA union head Hunter's shady, nepotistic dealings and questions arising about Fisher's own role in dealing with NBA owners behind Hunter's back during the lockout, this off-the-court scandal could prove to be more exciting than the playoffs themselves!

5. STEVE NASH AND THE PHOENIX SUNS
The Suns are on this list for squandering the last few great seasons from Nash. Nash is on this list for his stupidly stubborn loyalty to a franchise as awful as the Suns.
