Houston Rockets/Oklahoma City Thunder: Game 2 –       I think even if this game is a blowout tonight, I’ll stick with it. It’s just so much more appealing to me than Hawks/Pacers. –       Chandler Parsons is not a name I thought I would have heard much after his college days, but he’s found a solid role […]

The NBA MVP does not necessarily have to go to the best player on the best team, but it makes rational sense to make that argument. So when voting for the Defensive Player of the Year Award, why not go with the best defensive player on the league’s best defense? This year, it looks like […]

In two rather surprising coaching moves this week, the Charlotte Bobcats have fired Mike Dunlap and the Cleveland Cavaliers are bringing back Mike Brown. Dunlap only lasted one season with the Bobcats, going 21-61, the second worst record in the league behind Orlando. Despite Charlotte’s awful performance this year, I disagree with the decision to […]

I really do not have any words for this video you are about to watch of Heat's Chris Bosh and an animated show titled “Adventures of Christopher Bosh in the Multiverse!” From a scepter made of a puppy, a wolfman smoking a "pipe," floating bacon over a volcano, the "Evil Internet" to Mike Miller being […]

Milwaukee Bucks/Miami Heat: Game 2 –     First time you need to make a choice about which playoff game you watch. Starting with this one, but guessing how I think it will go, I assume most of my attention will go to Celtics/Knicks. –     The Heat are giving off the same vibe they did during the […]

 Golden State Warriors vs. Denver Nuggets Game 2 (1-0 DEN) — 10:30 p.m./TNT It was kind of weird to watch. Andre Miller with the ball in his hands. In 2013. With a chance to win a Playoff game. This was not Utah and Michael Doleac and Keith Van Horn were not walking through the locker […]

Chicago Bulls/Brooklyn Nets: Game 2 –       The line for this game was Brooklyn -5. The line for Game 1 was Brooklyn -4.5. The beat down the Nets gave the Bulls in the first game was only enough to move the line a half a point. I guess that shows you that Vegas thinks the Bulls […]

J.R. Smith played in 80 games for the New York Knicks this year and never started once. No matter who was injured, Smith came off the bench. Before the season started, Smith told coach Mike Woodson that he should be starting, but Woodson stood firm. The decision paid off. Today J.R. Smith is being rewarded […]

The Thunder won Game 1 of their opening playoff series versus the Rockets 120-91 and to add insult to injury, Russell Westbrook decided to make Patrick Beverly look absolutely silly. In the third quarter, Beverly caught himself one-on-one with Westbrook and the moment you saw Russell start to dance with the ball, you knew something […]

If the haters were talking yesterday, D-Will shut them right up   If Deron Williams has not directly addressed the many criticisms he has heard since heading to the Nets from the Jazz a few years ago, then he is probably lying. Countless writers, beat reporters, and fans alike have been incessant in ripping the […]

Atlanta Hawks/Indiana Pacers: Game 1 –       This matchup just barely edges out Bulls/Nets as least intriguing first round series, in my opinion. –       The Hawks seem to know they have no shot at the NBA Finals, and they’re just going to play like it. Not a lot of effort. –       Paul George messed around and […]

This past year was a trying one for the Suns, which clearly annoyed Marcin Gortat   The Suns were the fourth worst team in the entire NBA in the 2012-13 season, worse than every other Western Conference team but just a little bit better than the Bobcats, Magic and Cavaliers. Playing the team's first games […]
