There are quite a few "Blog Carnivals" around. Celebrating a common thematic/sport, it's an excellent way to cross-pollinate audiences.

Given the amount of NBA blogs on Bloguin, and the depth of quality within that group - a few decided to begin the Bloguin NBA Carnival, which will be named "Bloguin NBA-a-thon".

Running the first one fell to me, so here goes. And a note: most carnivals work with a specific thematic, that'll be no different for this one! Going with a look at numbers - this is #1, and seeing as someone's looking to change his... perhaps LeBron needs a reminder that there are other numbers that deserve attention.

#00 Robert Parish

Mookie from A Stern Warning throws out a though-provoking piece on Sport. It really strikes to the heart of why sport appeals to so many.

#1 Oscar Robertson

The guys at HoopHeadsNorth take a walk on the wild side, and produce a video-blog discussing the Raptors, their road-trip... and Vince Carter.

#2 Rick Barry

A comparison of Brandon Jennings and Allen Iverson is Will Yoder's contribution from Agent Dagger.

#3 Allen Iverson

TalkHoops.net's Zach Harper looks at why Rashard McCants is still unemployed.

#6 Bill Russell

Spurs Blogger Michael De Leon (Project Spurs) looks at the Spurs somewhat fluid line-up of late, Nate

and wonders should George Hill be starting for San Antonio...

#7 Nate Archibald

Mike R's peeved. Yes, there's something about the fans at the Target Center that really bothers him. The "Cheering for the Other Team" Target Center Phenomenom... T-Wolves Blog.

#8 Marques Johnson

Jeff Fox from Hoops Manifesto gets all Julie Andrews on us, and compiled a list of his favourite dunks.

#9 Bob Pettit

Fantasy Hoops specialist blogger Erik of Points in the Paint explores the Elton Brand situation, and how Brand's fantasy value will be determined in light of the injury to Marreese Speights.

#10 Walt Frazier

Statesman from Knicks Fanatics explores the state of play at the Knicks in Separating the Wheat & Chaff.

#11 Bob McAdoo

Ricky over at Sixers4Guidos has a look at Brandon Jennings, the bust. Yes, that's right: the BUST.

#12 John Stockton

You want fanatical? Those Utah guys fit the bill - and The Agreement of True Blue Jazz explores what would be a blockbuster deal if it were to occur (Okur?): Boozer/Kirilenko for T-Mac/Battier.
