At the end of Bulls/Heat, play-by-play man Mike Tirico kept going on and on about how “shocking” it was that Miami got swept. While it’s obviously rare for the defending champs to get smoked in the first round, there wasn’t much shocking about this series. Miami’s best player isn’t 100 percent, the rest of the […]

The first of the 16 playoff teams has been sent packing, as the Magic lost a close one to Detroit and got swept in front of the home fans. Dwight Howard finally had a dominant game, putting up 29 points and 17 boards, and Orlando actually had a five-point lead late in the fourth, but […]

Another reason for the Toronto fans to boo Vince Carter next time they see him: he decimated their team last night. Vince dropped 37 points on the Raptors in front of his home crowd, helping put NJ up 2-1 in the series. The biggest difference for Vince in this game as opposed to Games 1 […]

The Detroit Pistons are both the worst and best thing to happen to Dwight Howard in these playoffs. The worst, because with Rasheed Wallace, Chris Webber, Antonio McDyess, Jason Maxiell and Dale Davis, the Pistons have a slew of savvy vets and one effort-machine youngster to throw at Howard if they want and make his […]

Chill out, bro…
Normally, an 8-seed drawing a two-game road split against the 1-seed is considered pretty good. But after the Warriors absolutely fell apart mentally and on the court last night, they don’t have anything but home-court going for them as the Mavs/Warriors series heads to the Bay. Facing a must-win, Dirk Nowitzki (23 pts) […]

Troy Hudson and his boys dropped by the Dime office this morning to say what’s up. Yes, we said morning. That didn’t stop Troy from grabbing a cold one from the Dime fridge. “I’m in New York, I’m gonna do it big,” Troy told us.
While Troy checked out the new issue of Dime (featuring […]

Shawn’s Suns are rolling…
Now that it’s playoff time, the Hit List has been downsized. Only the 16 best teams in the League remain (although you might get some arguments on that out of folks in L.A., New Orleans and Oklahoma City), and we’re not counting the regular season anymore. So as good as Dallas was […]

Ever wonder where some of your favorite college hoop stars are balling these days? Just because you don’t see them on an NBA roster or on ESPN’s Top 10 Plays of the Week doesn’t mean they’re not putting in work in some other league around the world. Every year only a very select few […]

So much was made about Kobe Bryant and how he would approach Game 2 of Suns/Lakers (”Is he gonna share or go solo?”) that everyone kinda forgot one thing: the Suns are really really good, and the Lakers are somewhere between “aiight” and “awful” when Kobe’s not bustin’ everyone’s ass. Last night Mamba only scored […]

Around the start of the NBA season, to go with the re-design of Dimemag.com, I was planning on launching a 76ers-based blog as a space for daily rants and observations about my favorite team. Pretty quickly though, for the Sixers at least, things fell apart. I watched this season with a sort of apathy as […]

Confession time (although some of our more astute readers already know what we’re talking about): Because we didn’t pay attention to Utah’s last couple games of the regular season — seeing as they didn’t mean anything as far as playoff seeding — we assumed Andrei Kirilenko’s thumb injury was a season-ender. We approached it as […]
