Every morning, we will give you five things from the night before in the NBA to start your day. 1: Blackjack If the Bucks end up making the Playoffs as the eighth seed, the Heat will be their opponent. By the time they actually face each other who knows if the Heat will have actually […]

Who remembers back to early December? The New York Knicks were 14-4 with two (not one, not three, not four) 20-point victories over the Miami Heat. I do not think anyone was crowning the Knicks the Eastern Conference champs at that point, but there was some hope that they could at least give the Heat […]

Rockets' James Harden has been tearing it up since being traded from the Thunder and currently averaging 26 points, 5.9 assists, and 4.7 rebounds in 38.4 minutes of play. So it comes to no surprise that Rockets fans will be treated to a bobblehead of Harden in April and in true fashion, the bobblehead will […]

Jennings has made it clear that he wants to leave Milwaukee as soon as possible. The problem is that he's a restricted free agent after this season, which makes that departure date unknown The 2012-13 season has been an interesting one for the Milwaukee Bucks, to say the least. They started off the campaign 6-2, […]

Every morning, we will give you five things from the night before in the NBA to start your day. 1: Throwback Making some kind of age reference when it comes to the San Antonio Spurs is cliche. The Spurs just are excellence. They win and win and win. Even that line is cliche. It is […]

One injury has set off a whole new discussion of what is "dirty" in today's NBA. With three seconds left and his team down by two points, Kobe Bryant drove toward the baseline and pulled up for that fadeaway, contested jumper that he has made so famous. Hawks guard Dahntay Jones had the unenviable task […]

Just as it looked like the Los Angeles Lakers were picking up steam, things start to fall apart. L.A. dropped a tough one to the Atlanta Hawks last night, 96-92, but that was not the worst of it. In the final seconds, Kobe Bryant turned his ankle trying to be the hero for the team […]

It was the dunk heard around the world when Clippers' DeAndre Jordan absolutely, positively crushed Pistons' Brandon Knight. It might end up the dunk of the year and when it happened, many thought why on Earth would Knight even think about challenging Jordan at the rim. For Jordan and Knight it up them on the […]

The Minnesota Timberwolves are close to tasting success. Ricky Rubio is an electric performer who is a wizard witht he ball in his hands and one of the more lethal passers in the game already. Kevin Love is a great rebounder and a developing scorer who seems to add something new to his game every […]

The Heat and LeBron James may have went on to win their 20th game in a row last night over the Sixers but for a moment during the game, all eyes were on Jrue Holiday and his spectacular dunk on James. During the nip-and-tuck game, late in the 4th quarter, Holiday got free into the […]

The 2012 Draft class is not getting such great reviews so far. There have not been many rookies worth mentioning. Or maybe it has not gotten much talk because the Rookie of the Year race has been so easy to pick. Damian Lillard has been the clear guy from seemingly the beginning of the season. […]

According to Jeff Zillgitt of USA Today, Irving will be sidelined 3-4 weeks. There are about 5 1/2 weeks left in the season […]

He is usually the butt of a lot of NBA jokes and goofed on by Shaquille O'Neal a lot, but there is no doubting Nuggets' JaVale McGee can tear down the rim and is uber-athletic. Take Denver's recent game versus Phoenix. McGee threw down a sweet one-handed alley-oop and crushed it on Hamed Haddadi which […]
