The honeymoon is over. At this point in the season, Miami was supposed to be annihilating lesser teams like Indiana. Instead, they are succumbing to a laundry list of fundamental breakdowns: defensive rotations, closeouts, ball movement and three-point shooting. Basically, everything that good role players are called on to do isn’t happening for the Heat. Submit your Udonis Haslem and Mike Miller excuses HERE … The Pacers, despite getting just 9 points from Roy Hibbert and an off shooting night from Danny Granger (20 pts, 6-21 FG), were in control for the final three quarters.

Pau Gasol is the best scoring big man in the NBA today. His back-to-the-basket game, footwork, ability to finish with both hands, run the court and make the face-up jump shot are an unstoppable combination. He has without a doubt become a much tougher and ultimately better player since joining the Lakers in 2008.

Last night, Gasol posted some remarkable numbers against the Warriors at home. His 28 points on 10-of-10 from the floor and 8-of-8 from the free throw line were an example of his elite talents. Read More »

Maybe he killed Pat Riley‘s fantasy team one year. Maybe Riley, a Kentucky alum, just doesn’t deal with people from Mississippi State.
