BO McCALEBB INJURED IN EUROPEAN LEAGUE ACTION

Bo McCalebb suffered an ankle injury Thursday evening in the second half of a European League tournament game.  At the time of his injury he was leading all scorers with 17 points.  Reports were that he was carried off the floor by his teammates.  The PG is still trying to get an update regarding his prognosis.  Hopefully is was a bad sprain - nothing broken.

As soon as some information comes our way, we will give you the scoop.  In the meantime, get ready for details of our 2nd Annual thepointguard.net Fantasy Basketball League, coming real soon.

THE PG ANNOUNCES FIRST PRE-SEASON RANKING OF THE TOP 20 NBA PGs

On Episode 31 of THE POINT GUARD Internet Radio Program, The PG announced his Pre-Season Rankings of the NBAs top 20 point guards.  He cautions that this is not the final pre-season listing; it will be amended as circumstances dictate up to the final THE POINT GUARD show before the start of the NBA season (to accommodate circumstances such as trades, injuries, etc.).  ThePG insists that this ranking is calculated more as a prediction of performance this coming season, rather than as an indication of past seasons' efforts.

Among the names on last year's Pre-Season list which do not appear on this summer's initial list are:  D-Rose, Devin Harris, Chauncey Billups, Jason Kidd, and Baron Davis.  With the exception of D-Rose, who is expected to miss most of the year after ACL surgery, these omissions do represent a true "changing of the (point) guard" on the NBA landscape.

1.   Chris Paul
1a  Deron Williams
3.   Rajon Rondo
4.   Russell Westbrook
5.   Steve Nash
6.   Tony Parker
7.   Kyrie Irving
8.   Brandon Jennings
9.   Damien Lilliard
10  Darren Collison
11  Jrue Holliday
12  Ty Lawson
13  Rick Rubio
14  George Hill
15  Goran Drajic
16  Kyle Lowry
17  Mike Conley
18  Stephen Curry
19  Jeremy Lin
20  Raymond Felton

This list will be amended on an on-going basis until the Saturday before the season begins.  Feel free to comment at any time.

THE POINT GUARD - Episode 30 by ThePG On Blog Talk Radio

Here is Episode 30 of THE POINT GUARD Internet Radio Program.  The show features ThePG and Speedy the Point Guard and airs every Saturday evening at 6:30 Eastern Time.

On this episode, The PG goes into a detailed examination of how the recent blockbuster trade sending Dwight Howard to the Lakers will cause ThePG to re-assess his earlier prediction that the D-Will/Joe Johnson backcourt will have more of an impact this coming season than the Nash/Kobe tandem.

TONY PARKER HIT BY GLASS IN CLUB FIGHT HAS "85% RECOVERY" BUT STILL PLAYING FOR FRANCE

The PG points your attention to Tom Withers' (of Associated Press) article appearing in YAHOO Sports, detailing TP's story of his recovery from the eye injury incurred as a bystander from a shattered bottle during a night club fight between Chris Brown and Drake crews.  Doctors told him the impact was micro-millimeters away from resulting in loss of an eye - which would have effectively ended his basketball career.
