Welcome to Pro Basketball Talk at NBCsports.com, a new venture where we will be bringing you and savoring the next generation of memories.
What Pro Basketball Talk is about is bringing you one-stop-shopping for your NBA news — from games to the rumors to injuries to just celebrating the game and the players. The model is based on Pro Football Talk, the amazing and successful site Mike Florio and crew have put together. It is the preeminent football blog. We are bringing that model to the Association and we are going to work harder than the Houston Rockets on defense to live up to the incredible standard of PFT. I hope we can someday.
Want to know what happened in a game you missed? Of course we’ll have that and some insight into why it happened. We’;l let you know about the latest trades and trade rumors. We’ll talk Xs and Os. And we’re going to talk about the fun stuff — like Shane Battier’s new mustache. Which is right out of Reno 911.
We have Ira Winderman pitching in as well as a Dream Team of NBA bloggers (Matt Moore, Rob Mahoney and John Krolik). The one thing every one of us has in common is that we love the game. We are going to bring that passion to you.
So bookmark us. Follow the site on twitter. Comment and be part of the community. We will fill up your RSS feed with everything NBA — you’ll get your news fast, correct, with context and opinion sprinkled in, all topped off with a dollop of fun.
Welcome to Pro Basketball Talk. Take your shoes off and stay a while. Make yourself at home.

I am extremely excited this morning to announce that I’m joining NBC Sports’ new NBA Blog, Pro Basketball Talk as their weekend editor (and I’ll be around other times as well). You can find my first post here. I cannot thank Kurt Helin enough for this opportunity, and for all the support I’ve received from my fellow blogger compatriots. Helin’s a legend out here in the Wild NBA Blogosphere, and when offered a chance to work on a brand new concept with him, I leapt at the chance. Plus, Paroxi-wife thinks this will provide her an opportunity to run away with John Kwraejajfaljdakfda from the Office, and she said I didn’t have any choice.
So what does that mean for HP?
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.
Still here, still babbling, still at FH, still babbling. This was just another opportunity for me to expand and do some new things. If you like HP, you’ll probably dig PBT as well. Fast, angled, little edgy. Kind of like a taco salad with cold chips.That would make me the salsa. You know. ‘Cause I’m SPICE-AY.
Come join us, RSS, bookmark, tweet, etc. Hit me up, bros and women.
