    Best & Worst of the Josh Freeman Era for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers

    It’s over between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Josh Freeman, even if the quarterback is still on the team, only sitting on the bench. There’s no turning back once you lose your starting place, in what has been quite a roller coaster ride during his reign over the starting position, which ultimately can be labeled as a failure.

Above all was Kobe Bryant, moving up the all-time scoring list, smashing franchise records for the Lakers while putting names like Kareem and West behind him. Even Michael Jordan.

  • Who Said Deron Williams Isn’t Motivated Playing for the Nets?

Williams is still putting up impressive numbers, but nothing came close to his explosion against the Charlotte Bobcats, scoring a franchise record 57 points as the New Jersey Nets won 104-101.

  • The Milwaukee Bucks’ Embarrassing Night in Boston Against the Celtics
