Anderson Varejao done for season with blood clot in lung

The injury is a major blow to both the Cavs and Varejao: The Cavs, because he is their best frontcourt player by far and himself, because prior to the injury, he was having a ridiculous career year and was probably headed to an All-Star appearance Some bad news was released yesterday for one of the […]

Everyone is waiting for Boston to make that inevitable run that the team always seems to have within it.

Kevin Durant grew up dreaming of being a Raptor

Let that thought sink in a bit. Kevin Durant grew up dreaming of becoming a Toronto Raptor. Not a Laker, with their championship duo of Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal. Not a Bull, following in Michael Jordan's footsteps. Not a Knick, playing in the mecca of Madison Square Garden. Not even a Spur, although no […]
