Best NBA journo?

being a big fan of Anthony Macri (basketballprospectus.com) and Charley Rosen, (foxsports.com) i've been searching the net for some other good journo's but they are the only two that i can find who address the intricacies and the ins and outs of the game effectively and with legitimate knowledge of the game.

Does anyone know any authors with articles similar to these. (please don't give me Bill Simmons - if i wanted a few jokes mixed with blantant bias i would hire celtic pride)

But, but Simmons is the only one we know!

To be honest, I never really have time to stray far from ESPN's regulars. A good place to start looking, if you haven't been reading it already, is ESPN's TrueHoop - that's always linking off to interesting material with barely a mention of Simmons.

Not being a real in depth follower of the NBA but still liking to have some idea of whats going on I find most of the online 'experts' a bit tiresome to read as they waffle on in so much detail.
I actually find our Jaeger Bomb fuelled Canberra correspondent TR to be a great source for NBA news and opinion. Apart from the overuse of nicknames (I still dont know who 'crash' is) he always seems to have concise and well thought out ideas regarding most teams

"Crash" is Gerald Wallace.

Charley Rosen? You're kidding, right? He's a know-nothing hack whose qualifications amount to carrying Phil Jackson's jock for a year. He might see a team play once a year, and then writes an article on them like he knows all about them, but all he's doing is quoting scouting reports on players and stealing from other peoples' articles.

Rosen is the WORST NBA journalist (term used under advisement), bar none.
