With the first and second rounds out of the way, I feel almost refreshed to the NBA. The top 4 teams in the NBA have finally been set aside and I’m not sure that anyone should really be surprised. The “Final Four” of the NBA should bring out the best basketball in the world [...]
Has anyone noticed that with the Lakers and the Celtics still in the playoffs that perhaps they may meet in the finals?
I know. The Hornets, Spurs, Cavs and Pistons have every bit a chance to get there but a Celtics-Lakers final would bring back memories wouldn’t it?
During the 1980s, these were some of the teams [...]

Can we stop complaining about Chauncey’s 3rd quarter buzzer beater? If you really think this shot was the reason the Magic lost then you are an absolute fool. Games aren’t won or lost on 3rd quarter controversial buzzer beaters people.
Yeah, yeah…argue that it changed the momentum or something weak like that. Well if that’s [...]

I know what you’re thinking, “Enough with the MVP chatter!” And I know just a few days ago while in my basketball funk I bashed on all the MVP posts and preached for originality. Well, today I’ve thrown myself into the fire and needed to share my own thoughts, as I haven’t up to [...]
Note: With the World Hockey Championships under way, it reminded me of a post I wrote following the basketball world championships last year. A few hours after writing this piece Spain had defeated Greece 70-47 to deservedly win its first World title.
Many a theories abound about why the Americans lost to Greece at the World [...]
Someone explain to me why the Washington Wizards decided it was OK to talk trash and bully up LeBron? And when are they going to quit this nonsense?
First of all, as a #5 seed, you have no right to talk trash on anyone. Wait, wait…as a #5 seed in the EAST, you have even less [...]

MJ put his stamp on the Bobcats by bringing hall of fame coach Larry Brown in to run the show. I think this move is a good one, but they still aren’t a contender (for a title at least). Despite Larry Brown’s incredible coaching skills, they are a young expansion squad that can’t [...]

PISTONS BEAT SIXERS!
The Pistons beat the Sixers 93-84 to tie the series 2-2. They responded in the second half and took the lead throughout the fourth. The question was would they respond and after trailing by 10 at halftime, they came out ready to take over. This series will go back to Detroit [...]

A not-so-loving view of the 1 and done college rule.
Albom from the Detroit Free Press wrote this blast on college, the NBA and its “one year minimum in college” policy. He is obviously not a fan of the rule and makes some very valid points. To me though, this is like that old washed [...]

So far the biggest upset I have ever seen, the Sixers beat the Pistons 90-86. All I can say is, “are you kidding me?” This was such a great victory if you’re Philly, a crushing defeat for the Pistons. the reason they won is the Pistons were unable to score late in the [...]
