All Star Game Voting Blunders

In a truncated NBA season which has already been marred by injuries, bad officiating, and poor play due to slow starts, the “fan voted” NBA All Star starters have been announced. In most cases the fans seemed to get it right. However, I must take note in a serious miff by all the voters. His [...]

New York Knicks “Black Hole Ball” Will Not Work

Carmelo Anthony is a black hole on offense. He holds onto the ball as valuable seconds of the shot clock becomes devoid. Amare Stoudemire is also a player whom is considered devoid of ball distribution skills. Did anybody not see this coming? If you look at the Denver Nuggets, and how dramatically improved they are [...]

Danny Ainge and the Celtics Driving on Flat Tires

The Boston Celtics are falling apart faster than the rubber of a blown tire flying off the rim on a car being driven by a negligent driver who is trying to get to a service station as fast as possible. The driver seems to be sitting in the car, pushing on the gas, holding the [...]

Ladies and Gentlemen, We have an Eddy Curry Sighting

He’s back. He’s looking fit, and sweating like a pig, in all of his 6 minutes, he scored 6 points on 2-3 shooting, and 2-2 from the free throw line. He also grabbed a few boards. Perhaps it was the South Beach Diet, but whatever it was, Eddy Curry is looking ready to resume a [...]

Dwyane Wade Eats Salad: Is this Newsworthy?

I really don’t like it when ESPN insider writers waste time to blow up a huge deal about something like Dwyane Wade telling the world he has started eating salad. I pay a premium to have access to inside information. This is not what I had in mind when I shelled out the cash, and [...]

Are the Philadelphia 76ers for Real?

Are the Philadelphia 76ers for Real?

Let me start by mentioning I don’t believe statistical measurements such as power rankings are truthful in resulting in NBA championships. Furthermore, I don’t know when the last team ranked first actually won any jewelry as a result of their top ranking. To top it off, I don’t possess the time or the patience to [...]

Ricky Rubio has Minnesota in Love

Ricky Rubio is turning heads all around NBA circles. Sometimes it’s simply because fans and players alike can’t follow or predict his passes, and other times because they cannot believe he actually made the pass he just made. Regardless of which cause, two things are certain: 1. You should not take your eyes of the [...]

Kobe Bryant’s Lakers have Lost a Step

It has become quite apparent 2 games into the 2011-2012 NBA season that Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers are in trouble this season. Bryant is playing his usual great quality game but it appears the the Lakers are a mess while Andrew Bynum is sitting out the first 4 games of the year [...]

Greed is Destroying the NBA

The Players bounce a basketball. They run, jump, pass, shoot, and score. They block shots, they woe us with their athletic ability and thunderous slam dunks. As a result of their abilities, we view them as deities of athletic marvel, gods of the hardwood. Well, this fan has opened his eyes. It’s really quite simple: [...]

NBA Season in Peril, Yet Folks Write About C.J. Miles’ Diet?

Call me crazy, but C.J. Miles? Am I about to write about C.J. Miles? Really? Am I on drugs? Sheesh….. Has the NBA lockout and lack of viable and meaningful content gotten so dreary that they have to waste time on sites like ESPN.com and Yahoo.com to highlight the fact that C.J. Miles is getting [...]
