The New York Knicks were eliminated from the NBA Playoffs Wednesday, losing to the Miami Heat in five games, making only two of those games look anywhere near competitive.  In the midst of that they lost two of their guards to catastrophic knee injuries and lost one of their cornerstone big men for a game […]

The Charlotte Bobcats began their coaching search seemingly by rolling a snowball down a hill and now it’s turned in to an avalanche.  The Bobcats have begun Michael Jordan’s version of Oprah’s Favorite Things.  You get an interview!  You get an interview! You get an interview! EVERYONE GETS AN INTERVIEWWWWWWW! ESPN reports Magic Assistant Head […]

The Dallas Mavericks defense of their 2011 NBA title is over after being swept by the Oklahoma City Thunder Saturday night. There was a lot said about how the Mavericks title defense was not an all-in proposition because owner Mark Cuban wanted to be a player in this summer’s free agency. That is why they […]

After it was reported earlier in the week that Team USA was looking to add some size to their finalist pool, Team USA Chairman Jerry Colangelo officially announced the addition of Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward James Harden and University of Kentucky F/C, and soon to be number one pick in the NBA Draft, Anthony Davis to their final […]

WANTED: Male, 6’10” or taller, ability to play basketball, preferably the positions of power forward and center, must be America, must have valid passport.  A week after Team USA Czar Jerry Colangelo said the Men’s Senior Team would go on as is despite losing LaMarcus Aldridge, Chauncey Billups and Dwight Howard to injury, and Lamar […]

Amar’e Stoudemire losing a fight with a fire extinguisher was the latest turn in what’s been a really weird season for the New York Knicks.  From their awful start, to “Linsanity”, to ‘Melo going to hero to villain back to hero (and getting a coach to quit in the process) in approximately 30 days, Gotham […]

The Miami Heat demolished the New York Knicks Saturday, winning 100-67.  Even worse news for the Knickerbockers was the loss of Iman Shumpert for the rest of the season (and probably the start of next season) with a torn ACL.  The Knicks had a problem before Shumpert left and that problem is called LeBron James.  […]

It’s been a tough year for Jameer Nelson.  His season started off horribly, but got better month by month.  The same couldn’t be said for his team.  The Dwight Howard drama hit an apex seemingly once a month and often times Nelson heard whispers that Howard’s camp was pushing the Magic front office to upgrade […]

Team lose games they shouldn’t all the time.  It’s the nature of the NBA schedule.  There’s too many games to be laser focused on each one.  Still, there are games where you really shouldn’t lose.  For the Minnesota Timberwolves, that game came last night.  Up 21 points, the T’Wolves lost to the Golden State Warriors […]

Another year, another bad season for the Sacramento Kings. They are the second worst team in the Westen Conference, their owners still probably want to leave the city and, now, a guy who a season ago was thought to be a franchise corner stone is eligible for a contract extension. And it does not look […]

Now that Dwight Howard has opted in to the Magic for one more season, the biggest story of the summer is going to be where will Deron Williams go.  He’s having a weird season in the sense that sometimes it looks like he doesn’t care, often times he’s playing dinged up and still he’s capable […]

It’s been a tough season for Paul Pierce.  Despite the Boston Celtics’ second half resurgence, recovering from an early season injury and a grueling schedule has taken its toll on the Celtics’ captain.  But how much of a toll has it taken on him?  According to Steve Bulpett of the Boston Herald, it’s been enough […]

Friday was both a great day for the NBA and a sad one.  First Commissioner David Stern announced that New Orleans Saints’ owner Tom Benson had purchased the New Orleans Hornets.  Then Stern announced that the Maloof Brothers had more or less taken a dump on the city of Sacramento, Mayor Kevin Johnson and most […]

The Washington Wizards are not a good basketball team.  They have a pretty good point guard, a bunch of shooters, a rookie with a hot Central European girlfriend and a guy named Trevor.  I can appreciate all of these things.  Still, they’re not very good.  They’re so bad that they’re likely going to get their […]

“Either you die the hero or live long enough to become the vi-” oh screw it, the stupidity that’s played out in Orlando and Sacramento over the last few days, months and years doesn’t even deserve an awesome Dark Knight comparison.  Neither situation is like a good movie.  It’s more like a TV series you […]
