It didn’t take too long for the NBA to suspend Miami Heat’s Udonis Haslem and Dexter Pittman for the over-the-top hits on Pacers’ Tyler Hansbrough and Lance Stephenson respectively. Haslem will be suspended for one game (Game 6) for a very hard foul on Hansbrough while Pittman will be suspended for three games for pretty […]

The Miami Heat-Indiana Pacers Game 5 has been full of antics. Whether it be Lance Stevenson giving Miami the choke sign, Juwan Howard taking exception to Lance’s act, Danny Granger’s tough guy act to the plenty of hard fouls in Game 5. But perhaps this could have been the proverbial cherry on top of the […]

Many are waiting with anticipation for the upcoming Batman movie “The Dark Knight Rises” which hits theaters in July. It is the last installment in director Chris Nolan’s epic trilogy.

Irving, who won Rookie of the Year, was joined by Ricky […]

If you been watching any of the postgame press conference during these NBA playoffs, chances are you have seen a particular fashion statement being made by various players — the geek look. You know, shirts buttoned up to the top, thick rimmed eye-glasses, suspenders, and much more. You might swear Steve Urkle of Family Matters […]

Jeremy Lin stormed on to the NBA scene when he suited up for the New York Knicks and captured the eyes of the NBA world with his phenomenal scoring outbursts, helped spur a Knicks’ seven-game winning streak, displayed passion on the court, and fearless play. Yes for a while, “Linsanity” made the Knicks the center […]

The former NBA champions Dallas Mavericks never really got into their groove this season. They were mired in the Lamar Odom drama, hit with the injury bug, and their star, Dirk Nowitzki, admitted to fatigue. Prior to this season, Dirk played for Germany at Olympic qualifying games and admitted he may have made a bad […]

It was probably, no, it was the last thing Chicago Bulls fans wanted to see in this year’s NBA playoffs, Derrick Rose crumbling in mid-air in the Bulls’ first round series versus the Sixers as his ACL gave way. Boom! Just like that, the Bulls’ season was practically over as Chicago was bounced out of […]

Congratulations Oklahoma City Thunder fans! Your team came from behind in Game 2 versus the Lakers last night to take a commanding 2-0 lead in the Western Conference semi finals as the series now shifts to L.A.

Former number one draft pick by the Portland Trail Blazers, Greg Oden, has his eyes set on joining the Miami Heat if (and that’s a big if) he can return to the court after undergoing yet another round of rehab on his oft-injured knees. Oden is set to take next season off to make sure […]

First it was San Antonio Spurs’ Tony Parker’s face getting etched into a Spurs fan’s hair and now it seems Los Angeles Lakers fans can also show their crazed support of Kobe Bryant with a Kobe Bryant hair cut… literally. Tonight the Lakers and Thunder will play Game 2 of their semi finals series and […]

Though the Oklahoma City Thunder obliterated the Los Angeles Lakers in Game 1 of their semi finals matchup, lost in the win was Kendrick Perkins aggravating a right hip muscle strain in the third quarter.

We interrupt your NBA playoff fever for an update on Team USA and the looming 2012 Olympic basketball tournament which will prove to be an exciting one. By now you all know senior members of the squad are dropping like flies. Dwight Howard, Derrick Rose, Chauncey Billups, LaMarcus Aldridge, and Chris Bosh all have succumbed […]

Though the Miami Heat won Game 1 over a feisty Indiana Pacers in the second round of the playoffs, however, Chris Bosh suffered an abdominal strain in the win. And it seems this strain is much more severe than originally thought. It was reported Bosh will be out indefinitely in the series versus the Pacers […]

Entering the NBA for the Sacramento Kings’ Jimmer Fredette must have been daunting. He was greatly heralded in college (BYU) and had a huge following (“Jimmer-mania”) that it may have been ranked up there with “Beatle-mania.” But his rookie season in the NBA was flat. It was not terrible but just up-and-down. But if anything, […]
