The Boston Celtics forced the Miami Heat to the brink of elimination. Kevin Garnett channelled his inner “Big Ticket” in the process. Ray Allen and Paul Pierce looked more their age. Through 20 postseason games, KG posted playoff averages of 19.2 points and 10.3 rebounds per night. Allen and Pierce did not help things as […]

Tonight the Boston Celtics and Miami Heat will face off in Game 7 in the Eastern Conference Finals in Miami and a shot for a chance at an NBA title versus the Oklahoma City Thunder. And despite the Heat having home court advantage, the Celtics have proven they can win in Miami and cause the […]

The Boston Celtics got smacked up versus the Miami Heat in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals, 98-79 in what could have been a close out game for Boston. Now the Celtics must travel to Miami for a decisive Game 7 and a chance to return to the NBA Finals and face the Thunder. […]

There was no bigger loser in the NBA Draft Lottery than the New Jersey Brooklyn Nets. After being Heisman’d by one free agent star after another over the last three years, a shot at Anthony Davis could’ve been that spark they so desperately needed to set Brooklyn ablaze upon arrival. That wasn’t happening however, and […]

The New Orleans Hornets are taking Anthony Davis first at the NBA Draft in a couple of weeks.  They haven’t said it yet, but we know it’s going to happen.  The good news is, the Hornets aren’t playing coy with Davis… at all.  According to Yahoo!’s Marc Spears, Head Coach Monty Williams is already forming […]

Brandon Roy will always represent what could have been. Maybe he will become, as they said in Field of Dreams, what could be good again. Roy’s career has been both amazing and tragic as constant knee injuries derailed this budding young star long before he could fully blossom. Much like Tracy McGrady, Grant Hill and […]

The NBA Draft Combine is underway in Chicago and already a ton of news is coming out of an event that at times double as the NBA’s version of the Winter Meetings that take place in baseball.  When there’s that many decision makers and talent evaluators in the same place, rumors start flying.  The most […]

Oklahoma City trailed by 18 points… at home… in a closeout game… against a seasoned, veteran, championship team in San Antonio. It was both masterful and stunning.

Congratulations Oklahoma City Thunder, you are in the NBA playoffs for the first time since moving from Seattle. You now have the chance to capture an NBA title. It is a well-deserved march to the NBA Finals, thanks in large part to the play of James Harden. The reigning Sixth Man of the Year made […]

No not Anthony Davis with pick number one. They’re good rebuilding from the rubble left behind by CP3 with the freakishly athletic big man out of Kentucky. That selection is already in the hands of David Stern while AD gets fitted for his new suit. When New Orleans comes back around to pick again at […]

Deron Williams is the unquestioned prize of this year’s free agent class and he knows it.  Dwight Howard, afraid of being the bad guy in leaving Orlando, opted in for another year, so did Chris Paul.  That leaves Williams as the number one guy available this season.  There’s been return to Brooklyn rumors, there have […]

The Portland Trailblazers are a team in transition.  A few years ago we all thought of them as the Oklahoma City Thunder before the Thunder were on the door step of an NBA title.  With Brandon Roy, Greg Oden and LaMarcus Aldridge all in the fold, the Blazers were looked at as the NBA’s next […]

Every morning, we’ll give you five things from the night before in the NBA to start your day. 1:  OKC is going to the NBA Finals. The Oklahoma City Thunder, who partly figured out the Spurs and partly overwhelmed them, are going to the NBA Finals.  They are the 15th team in NBA history to […]
