I've been visiting http://www.basketbawful.blogspot.com/ quite a bit lately, and it's worth checking out - a slightly cynical look at the league, and some good pieces on the culture of rec league and pickup basketball.
Also, if you haven't heard the latest Simmons podcast, it's really good. He talks to Steve Kerr, not so much about being the Suns GM, but more about stories of his playing days. Would there be a better guy to have a beer with than Steve Kerr? Down to earth, funny, owner of five championship rings, and a former team mate of Jordan, Duncan, and Shaq. My favourite part is when they talk about how Steve played for the 02 Trailblazers with Zach Randolph, Ruben Patterson, Rasheed Wallace, and Damon Stoudamire, and Simmons asked him if he went back to his room and wept every night. Probably the best of podcast he's done yet, and you can find it here http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/index

Simmons must have been high or drunk- he had so many stats and facts wrong. Normally he's spot on.
