Patrick Ewing has made it perfectly clear that he wants to be a head coach. His contract with the Magic expires at the end of this season, and he wants a shot at the big-time. And Stan Van Gundy believes that his former team owes him that shot. Read More »

If you’re on the east coast and stayed up late to watch the Davidson/St. Mary’s NIT matchup, you may be dragging this morning, but you know it was well worth it. It’s a shame the Stephen Curry/Patty Mills shootout wasn’t on prime time for half the country to see because it was honestly one of the most entertaining games I’ve seen all year. These ESPN highlights don’t the game justice – it was up and down and the two stars rose to the occasion (at times, Steph was pulling from about three feet beyond NBA three-point range).

Let us know if you caught the game and what you thought of it…

Around 1:30, Nene “headbutts” and then “elbows” Louis Amundson in the head. Should he have gotten tossed for this?

O.J. Mayo might be battling the rookie wall, or else Dwyane Wade just makes the young’uns feel that way.

THE HIT LIST

Cole Aldrich — Going into the Tournament, nobody was talking about Aldrich in regards to the 2009 NBA Draft. Read More »

To add to the firestorm of complaints about ref’s in the NBA right now, the Pistons are pissed about Dwyane Wade getting all the calls in their loss to the Heat last night. Wade has been getting whistles in his favor ever since he first put on a Heat jersey. But Detroit thought that last night was particularly egregious. Read More »

Over on Hypebeast there are pics of the Nike Court Low. Definitely feeling these. Very clean and perfect for chillin’ in. Read More »

We just can’t get enough of these Jordan commercials. If you’ve been watching the NCAA Tournament then I know you have caught at least one of these. They are all great, but since I am a ‘Cuse fan I decided to post the Melo/Texas one. After the more is probably the funniest one with Ray Allen.

If you had to name the NCAA player who splashed 60 points in a single outing this year and scored more than any other individual during the first round of the tournament, who would you think it was? Blake Griffin? James Harden? Read More »
