A shot of Paul Pierce could be exactly what Wizards need

Paul Pierce boldly proclaimed after hitting a big shot in the first game of the Playoffs last year against the Raptors, “This is why they brought me here.” Pierce has never been afraid of the big moment and has always been unafraid to take the big shot. That has been the way he has operated […]

Kemba Walker gets his payday, sets market high

There have been precious few extensions signed before Friday’s deadline for the members of the 2011 Draft Class. Kyrie Irving got his. Nikola Vucevic too. Kenneth Faried as well. That has left many, many other players waiting their turn. This includes Enes Kanter, Tobias Harris and, most notably, Klay Thompson. Part of the problem is no […]

Even with LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh leading the team to championships, the crowd left a little to be desired in the regular season for sure. […]

Ricky Rubio’s mid-range jumper key to unlocking his potential

Ricky Rubio has been in the spotlight since he was 14 years old. YouTube was lit up with the highlights of his passing exploits and his dazzling ball handling. Here was a baby-faced kid diming in every sense of the word. There was unadulterated joy in his game and how he played. NBA fans could […]

Kobe Bryant calls Dwight Howard soft

The Rockets were trouncing the Lakers. But the score is always 0-0 in Kobe Bryant‘s mind. It is about the game within the game. And even though his Lakers were trailing (and getting beat pretty badly), Bryant was taking no guff. Not even from his former teammate Dwight Howard. Bryant was pressuring Howard on a […]
