NBA Essentials ranks our six favorite stories of the day.


1. Jones on the NBA. Our old friend Nate Jones instigated a fantastic series of posts from around the basketblog world on our favorite arenas. Check it out for sure.

2. Indy Cornrows.
One of three necessary occurences for the Pacers to have a chance to win the title, says Cornrows: "Danny Granger goes into a Justice League-inspired zone on invincibility as his game rises to an All-Star level at both ends of the court." Sounds reasonable.

3. Los Angeles Times. Tracy McGrady is showing his Darfur documentary to fellow NBA players, trying to raise money to build schools and train teachers.

4. Examiner. A dude gets put into a foursome with J.R. Smith. Dude hits a hole-in-one. Chest bumps ensue: "'That's the best shot I've ever seen,' said Smith, a man I was beginning to realize was very misunderstood. He was a true gentleman."

5. NetsDaily. Which Nets should be taking the final shot?

6. Forum Blue and Gold. Good memories of Showtime's glue guy, Michael Cooper.
