Daily Fantasy Diagnosis: 3.9

Manu Ginobili

Beast of the Night: Manu Ginobili torched the Cavs with 38 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 2 turnovers, nailing 7 threes in the process. He shot 52 percent (12-23) from the field and 100 percent (7-7) from the line and is poised to be huge for the Spurs (and his fantasy owners) down the final stretch of the season. Read More »

Wilson Chandler’s Game-Saving Block On Josh Smith

It’s not often that you can say the Knicks come out on the winning end of a one-point game. But after doing everything they could to give the game away, watch Wilson Chandler‘s game-saving block on Josh Smith as the buzzer sounds.

The NBA’s All-Beard Team (By Position)

Baron Davis

As a personal purveyor of the beard, I have a special affinity towards players that rock ‘em on the court. So that’s why I was so excited to see James Harden tweet the following question last week: In the NBA what’s yall top 5 all beard team by position? At first you think this might be easy, but it’s the by position that makes it hard. Here we go… Read More »

Allen Iverson Responds To His Fans

Allen Iverson

We’ve been down with Allen Iverson since the beginning. From the cover of Dime #1 up until now, there has probably never been a player that meant more to us. Personally, the walls of my bedroom growing up are still covered with poster of A.I. (in seemingly every different iteration of a Sixers jersey), and my AAU teammates can attest to the headbands, arm sleeves and even temporary tattoos I wore during games. That’s why after all that has surfaced in the past week, it’s so hard to read this: Read More »

5 Things to Watch for during the Big East Tournament

Lance Stephenson at Cincinnati

It’s Championship Week in college basketball, otherwise known as the week of tournaments before THE Tournament. And honestly, it seems this year people only really care about two conference tourneys: the Big East and the Big 12 … and maybe the ACC based on history and hype.

Yesterday I previewed the Pac-10 as a tune-up, but now it’s onto the real heavyweights. First up: the Big East. Read More »

“No LeBron, Mo Problems”

Mo Williams (photo. NBA)

That was Brent Barry‘s line before last night’s Cavs/Spurs game, his way of saying Mo Williams needed to step up and lead Cleveland since LeBron was out with a sore ankle. After sticking a big three midway through the fourth quarter to tie it, Mo (17 pts, 8 rebs, 8 asts) was at the line with nine seconds left and the Cavs up one. He made both free throws (between shots, did you see that girl in the crowd who looked exactly like J.J. Hickson?), and although Greg Popovich drew up a beautiful play to get Roger Mason a wide-open three, “No Shot Rog” bricked to complete his 0-for-8 night beyond the arc … Read More »

The NBA Continues To Dominate Social Media

NBA

Two weeks ago, I went to the “2010 @thenyknicks Tweet Up,” a pioneering event held at Madison Square Garden with some of the industry’s biggest names. Jack Dorsey (Creator, Co-founder & Chairman of Twitter), Amy Martin (Founder of Digital Royalty) and Jim DeLorenzo (VP of Octagon Digital), among others, were in the house to talk about the future of fan-brand engagement. Today, the NBA proved just how dominant they have become as a brand, surpassing two million fans on Facebook – an unprecedented number for a sports league on the social networking site. And here’s why. Read More »

Where Brooklyn At!

Where Brooklyn At! is a clothing company that celebrates Brooklyn’s storied history. Based around the borough’s many icons, famed architecture and celebrated past, you’d be lying if you didn’t say Brooklyn is a special place that has influenced the world profoundly on many different levels.
