I’ve been away for a little while now…
Unexpected changes to my day job, moving house and basically living in fast forward since early June have slowed the 2SOTH express. The posts have been non-existent but I’m happy to report that I’m back.
What a time to go missing you might say? …
Just when you thought it was safe to assume anything in the NBA Playoffs, things have just got crazy!
If LeBron James’ future employment options were threatening to take attention away from this season’s Playoffs, then the events of the past 48 hours have closed that book for now. The Phoenix …
We look into the 2SOTH crystal ball to see who will progress, who will head home and take a look at some of the key storylines of Round 2 of the 2010 NBA Playoffs.
