Got 'Em Coach was supposed to be the world's foremost marketplace for user-based, online auctions, but unfortunately, and unknowingly, I started the site 15 years after eBay. That's when I turned to the NBA.
I'm not going to act like I know more about basketball than you. Neither of us played professionally, so we'll call it even. I have no access to games, and even less to players, but I think I can help you enjoy the sport.
The staff (just me) will work hard (more or less) to bring you the best basketball material (perhaps), so you keep coming back every day (why not?).
So sit back, or forward, depending on your current situation or seated preference, and enjoy the Internet ride.

What does the name "Got 'Em Coach" mean?
RAJON RONDO WEARS AWFUL JACKET, GETS MAD AT CAMERAMAN
Inside the NBA is MUST WATCH television after playoff games. Charles and Kenny are on top of their game, Shaq makes me laugh at least once every show, and Ernie does a masterful job jockeying all three.
Last night, they went in on coaches, called Kobe a nuclear weapon, sent the Orlando Magic fishin’, and had some fun with Rajon Rondo’s jacket.
In the video above, Rajondo scolds a cameraman for filming him, saying,
“How many times am I gonna tell you? Stop filming me.”
When asked for Rondo’s reasoning, Barkley said,
“I think he was mad about that jacket he was wearing. ‘I don’t want America to know I’m wearing this jacket. Don’t film me.’”
Listen, if the Miami Heat were playing the Washington Generals, I would pick the Washington Generals. It’s something about that team that annoys me. They just a whiny bunch and I can’t root for them.
Any professional athlete who gets on TV or radio and says he never played with a gay guy is a stone-freakin’ idiot…Society discriminates against gay people. I’ve been a big proponent of gay marriage for a long time, because as a black person, I can’t be in for any form of discrimination at all…It never crossed my mind, and I never felt any different. Man, we need to outlaw guys who suck at sports.
“These are my new shoes. They’re good shoes. They won’t make you rich like me, they won’t make you rebound like me, they definitely won’t make you handsome like me. They’ll only make you have shoes like me. That’s it.” - Charles Barkley
