Web Sightings

Just when you thought you couldn't handle one more sport, college and professional basketball show up on the front steps, hoping you'll let them in. As the NBA and college seasons near, here's a look at some more of the top basketball sites on the Web.

====

MICHAEL JORDAN

http://www.sportingnews.com/archives/jordan/

The history of basketball can't be written without a huge chapter on Michael Jordan, arguable the greatest to ever play the game. Read through The Sporting News archive of Jordan stories as they help chronicle one of the most gifted players the world has ever witnessed.

====

WOMEN'S PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL

http://www.wnba.com/

The NBA's sister league doesn't always grab the top headlines, but its existence is important to not only the game, but also to the numerous little girls who want to take their enthusiasm for sports down from the bleachers and onto the court.

====

GREATEST NBA MOMENTS

http://www.nba.com/history/index_moment.html

Everyone has their favorite buzzer-beating game-winning three-pointer, but most of us forget some of the greatest finishes the game has ever seen. Not the NBA. In fact, they've compiled the greatest games ever in one spot for fans to relive all over again.

====

AMERICAN BASKETBALL ASSOCIATION

http://www.remembertheaba.com/

Not quite into today's game? Then check out this tribute site to the old ABA, where high-flying scoring was the norm, excessive hair was always in style, and the red, white and blue ball was king. Ben Wallce's hair had nothing on these guys.

====

COACHING BASKETBALL

http://www.guidetocoachingbasketball.com/

If you've been recruited to coach a basketball team, be sure to read up on the various strategies you can use with a young team. This guide should help you do that, as well as offer some sound tips for your daughter or son as they embark on their basketball journey. Of course, if you want to crush their spirit or make them hate the sport before their thirteenth birthday, you'll have to figure that out on your own.
