Right after the final buzzer sounded and the Pistons had taken a 2-0 series lead on the Magic, we got a great camera shot of Stan Van Gundy spewing venom at a referee, screaming “That’s f***ing bulls***!” before storming off to the locker room. He could have been talking about a couple […]

Love/Hate Relationship
The Garden loves Lil’ Nate
Having gone to the majority of Knicks home games over the past two seasons, I’ve gotten to see how certain players vacillate between being fan favorites borderline villains with the MSG faithful. While David Lee and Nate Robinson have consistently been among the guys whom the fans love, others have gone […]

Who’s Your Five?

Why was it such a big deal when the Blazers won the ‘07 Lottery and the chance to draft Greg Oden? Because the true (effective) center — a huge building block for most teams hoping to reach a championship level — is allegedly a dying breed in the NBA, and teenage […]

The Bulls - Watch out for the two-game week. The Bulls are the only team with just 2 games on the schedule this week.

Down to the Wire

If we know our readers, last night’s late League action got no burn on your TV. We’re going to guess that most of you were watching (and then mourning) the series finale of The Wire. Luckily the game of the day was the afternoon showdown between the Suns and the Spurs. Are these […]

The J.R. Face
During Saturday’s 115-109 loss to Milwaukee, you could have figured out exactly what was going on in the game just by looking at George Karl’s face. Isiah Thomas has his patented doo-doo face, which usually comes on when Eddy Curry misses a dunk or forgets to run back and play defense. Karl’s expression should probably […]

Marc Berman’s Knicks blog in the New York Post sums up the team’s night on Tuesday pretty nicely:

As always, leave your fantasy questions in the comments box.
Andray Blatche - When Caron doesn’t play, Blatche is nasty. Last night he had 16 points and 15 boards in the Wizards loss. He clearly has the ability to be a regular fantasy contributor if Washington can find minutes for him. He’s such a tough […]

Eddy Curry - I spent a few minutes today trying to convince someone in the office not to cut him. It’s actually a hard argument. In fact, my entire argument is that I have to imagine Isiah gets fired at some point and then it […]

* If Andrew Bynum is now totally off the trading block, is there still a possibility to deal Jason Kidd to the Lakers? (ESPN Insider) “On Monday, as I was pondering trade possibilities for Kidd, I came up with this proposal: Lamar Odom, Javaris Crittenton and Sasha Vujacic for Kidd,” writes ESPN’s Chris Broussard. “I […]

The Others

Forget the 15-game losing streak. Forget the 0-5 start to the season. Forget the times when D-Wade and Shaq were out and the team was rolling out D-League lineups. With all that’s gone wrong for the Miami Heat in ‘07-08, yesterday’s drubbing at the hands of the Celtics was the low […]

When will C-Webb suit up for Nellie?
* Multiple sources agree that Chris Webber will be wearing a Warriors uniform before the end of January.
* Ironically, on the same night that Nellie set wheels in motion to bolster the Warriors’ presence on the boards, Andris Biedrins cleaned the glass single-handedly with 11 points and 26 […]

Hedo’s Heroics
Put the Magic on that list of teams who could give the Celtics a serious problem come postseason. Orlando handed the C’s another loss yesterday when Hedo Turkoglu (27 pts) stuck a three-pointer at the buzzer. With the game tied and the clock running out, Hedo took it up top, being guarded by Paul Pierce […]

Killing T Softly
When Rip Hamilton drops major buckets on you, sometimes you don’t even notice how bad it is until you check the box score. Rip doesn’t blitz you with inhuman athleticism like LeBron (more on that later) or visibly impose his will on you like Kobe, and he won’t punctuate a big scoring night with a […]

First I Look at the Worst
Who’s bad? (Photo. G. Land)
This time one year ago, Heat/Wolves at least would have been worth watching for the superstar factor: Shaq, D-Wade, Garnett. This year it was basically a battle for Worst Team in the League, and Miami lost (or won, depending on how you look at it). Rock bottom came with about two […]
