They have become larger than life figures who kids speak about mostly in reference to their shoes and older people speak of their accomplishments on the court like fairy tales. They both have meant so much not only to the game of basketball but to society as a whole. It’s great to see all the fanfare and love that they [...]
Generally the last thing that we’ve wanted to watch on All-Star weekend was the dunk contest, there were numerous reasons as to why it was worst than the celebrity game and the skills competition. This year we must say that things are different, when the list of dunkers came out we were pleasantly surprised to see not only some young [...]
In a double overtime loss (the sixth such outcome in a row) the Celtics may have without realizing it also lost the season. Rajon Rondo who had a triple double in the contest injured his knee and was listed as day-to-day. The injury was called a hyper-extended knee but instead has been “Reported” as a torn ACL. If this report [...]
Over the past month we’ve seen the return of four NBA stars who should/have made an immediate impact on their team’s record and play. Three of the players are their team’s number one offensive option (sorry Amare not you) and will supply some much-needed firepower for their respective teams. In the case of Amare he comes back to an already [...]
Every Year the All-Star game produces some head scratching selections and some disappointing snubs and with the league as talented as it’s ever been we’re sure that this year will be no different. Take a look at our list and let us know who you’d change and who you’d keep. We put the players that we felt would get voted [...]
The league is stock full of young, athletic, exciting point guards. It seems every night you have a dogfight at the point guard position and it generally makes for good basketball games despite which teams are playing. With the upper echelon of point guards being known as Rondo, Westbrook, Paul, D-Will (for now), and maybe Tony Parker. There are plenty [...]
Every year there are players who we know should make the All-Star game based on their overall play and their team’s record, but won’t make it based on the market they play in or the reputation of other players. That feeling is starting to arise when you think about Golden State forward David Lee. Golden State is one of those [...]
One of the most interesting teams this season has been the Timberwolves, with arguably the best power forward in the league in Kevin Love and a hunger to make the playoffs like no other the Wolves have played some exciting basketball so far. The Wolves may have made the playoffs last year if not for the unfortunate injury to some [...]
This year was supposed to be a rebuilding year for the Hawks, many people thought with the departure of the team’s best (maybe) player and one of the highest paid players in the league (Joe Johnson) that the Hawks would struggle. The team was constructed over the summer by new GM Danny Ferry to surround its two main pieces (who [...]
Kobe Bryant was obviously pretty frustrated when his Lakers took a 113-103 loss to the 6-10 Magic Sunday night on their home floor at the Staples Center. He had some pretty choice words for his teammates. Nothing we say will do this any justice you just have to read it for yourself. All we know is the Lakers better get [...]
