AMAZING COMEBACK PROPELS BOSTON TO VICTORY

What words can be used to describe what happened last night in the NBA finals? Both Los Angeles Lakers and Boston Celtics fans can use the same adjectives with completely different meanings.

DETROIT FIGHTING FOR HISTORICAL REMEMBERANCE: CHAMPS,CHUMPS OR CHOKERS?

Champs, chumps or chokers? How are we going to define the era of the Detroit Pistons if they lose their series to the Boston Celtics? It is an interesting debate for a basketball team that has been as successful as Detroit over the last six years.

2008 NBA MOCK DRAFT LOTTERY VERSION 1

For all you conspirator theorists who thought the New York Knicks already had the Derrick Rose Knicks #23 Jerseys on sale at the NBA store as soon as the NBA lottery started, think again…Sort of!!

CAN D’ANTONI SAVE THE KNICKS?! WILL NEW YORK LET HIM?!

The first step towards rebuilding the New York Knicks was made Saturday with the hiring of former Phoenix Suns head coach Mike D’Antoni. New GM Donnie Walsh made it a priority to have D’Antoni be the new coach and he wasn’t going to let a little thing like money stand in the way of that.  Six [...]

UTAH WILL LOSE IF THEY HAVE TO DEPEND ON BOOZ

 

If you’re a Utah Jazz basketball fan there are a few things you should realize. The first is that the Los Angeles Lakers are a better basketball team than Utah that is arguably playing its best basketball in quite a while.

WIZARDS BARK MUCH BETTER THAN THEIR BITE!! AND “BRENDA” HAYWOOD IS A BITCH!!

What a disgraceful performance by the Washington Wizards!! As a Washington Wizard basketball fan (and born and raised in the greatest place to live, grow up and raise your children, the  Washington Metropolitan Area)  I am completely ashamed, embarrassed, humiliated and disgusted with the effort and display of basketball (if that was what you called what [...]
