Jermaine O’Neal, Stephen Curry defeat Mavericks

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7C_8GwMb10

Stephen Curry added another game-winner to his resume this season. And Dallas was the victim once again.

Jermaine O’Neal blocked a shot on the defensive end setting up Curry to hit the game-winner with a scant 0.1 seconds left. It was Curry’s sixth made shot with less than 24 seconds in a five-point game and his fourth shot this season in the final 24 seconds to tie or take the lead. In fact, he is four for eight on shots to tie or take the lead in the final 24 seconds.

That is pretty darn impressive. Curry has quite the “clutch” reputation.

Dirk Nowitzki helps make Conan an honorary Texan

Conan O’Brien has taken his talk show to Dallas North Texas for the NCAA Tournament’s Final Four. To get acclimated to his new surroundings, O’Brien took the “official” Texas state citizenship test administered by the most Texan person he could find — Mavericks star Dirk Nowitzki.

Apparently the only way you can get directions to AT&T Stadium and actually know which way you are heading is if you give them in German. Go figure.

Pacers’ Hibbert: “Some selfish dudes in here”

For most of the NBA season, the Pacers looked like a juggernaut and perhaps the team to end the Heat’s reign in the East. But after a loss to the Wizards, and Cavaliers, Indiana might be losing their mental-edge and chemistry might be shaken up a bit – t least with Roy Hibbert. After the loss […]

The Rockets got some great news on Beverley’s injury, as it’s not as severe as previously thought

Patrick Beverley’s injury hurts Rockets, but isn’t devastating

The Houston Rockets are 49-23 at the moment, a record good enough for the No. 4 seed in the insanely competitive Western Conference, and — in all likelihood — will remain in that spot and will play the Portland Trail Blazers in the 1st round of the postseason. Of course this is assuming that nothing […]

Rajon Rondo joins the broadcast booth

During the Celtics’ 94-80 loss to the Bulls in Chicago, Rajon Rondo got the night off. Well, at least from playing. The Celtics’ All Star joined the Celtics broadcast booth instead of playing as he got the night off as part of his continuing minutes watch. And that left him leaving the Celtics audience some […]

CC Video of the day: Breaking down the Spurs’ winning streak

The San Antonio Spurs are on an impressive winning streak currently standing at 17 games in a row. But what it all mean? Does it really matter in the end especially for a team like San Antonio?

Bloguin’s own Project Spurs recently broke down the Spurs’ winning streak on their TV show and made it clear – this winning streak for a veteran team like the Spurs means nothing.

From who is the MVP during the streak to when it might all end, check out the Project Spurs’ panel as they break it all down.

Video: Pacers’ West gets into scuffle with Cavaliers’ Dellavedova, Hawes

http://youtu.be/yeud3VtwXbM

The Pacers surprisingly lost to the Cavaliers and it seem frustration may have mounted with David West.

Late in the fourth quarter, with the Cavs handling the Pacers, West was under the rim trying to score 2-points and got tangled up with Matthew Dellavedova and Spencer Hawes.

Hawes stepped in to defend his teammate seeing how West threw an elbow at Dellavedova and the two were separated.

Sixers finally win!

They did it. The Sixers finally won.

Philadelphia snapped an NBA record-tying 26-game losing streak with an impressive and energetic 123-98 win over Detroit at Wells Fargo Center. Thaddeus Young and Michael Carter-Williams each scored 21 points and Henry Sims added 16 points. It all finally seemed to work.

This was the 76ers’ first win since Jan. 29 in Boston. That was before the trades that sent Spencer Hawes to Cleveland and Evan Turner to Indiana. That was exactly two months ago. That is a long time to go without a win.

The Sixers though are still two games ahead of the Bucks for the best odds at winning the lottery.

Blazers open voting on court design to fans

Crowdsourcing is a pretty popular way for teams to engage with their fans. The Mavericks did it with their possible jerseys in the coming years. Northwestern opened up voting on their new court’s design — the court that won, did not actually get chosen. The Blazers are the latest to go the crowdsourcing route. Portland’s […]

CC Video of the day: Heat’s Bosh with the nice put-back slam

http://youtu.be/xAf7Rui5KcU

The Pistons gave a lesson to those in attendance for at last night’s game versus the Heat on how not boxing out opposing players can lead to easy dunks. Case in point – Chris Bosh waltzing into the lane versus Detroit for the easy put-back dunk.

Seriously, two Pistons players were right under the rim and didn’t even bother to box out Bosh or any Heat player.
