Celtics Spank Nets!

The Celtics beat up on the Nets, 105-85. No real surprise here, the Celts were in control. The thing that was really surprising about it was the lack of effort from New Jersey. They are no where near the talent level of Boston, but they could have put more effort into their play. Even though … Read more

Sixers Getting Their Edge Back!

The Sixers looked good in their win over Atalanta, 109-94. I have been very disappointed with the way they came out of the gates, but now they seem to be playing hard again. Guards are running to get on the offensive glass, their defense is swarming, they look like they will get back into the … Read more

Heat Lose FL Battle!

The Miami Heat lost what was a close game, 86-76. The game was close for three quarters, but DWade and the Heat didn’t have enough gas in the tank. I noticed a lot of problems for this Heat team, funny to think how they’re in the playoffs in the East. While Wade was Wade, the … Read more

I have made my selections for the 2009 All-Star game. For the West: Amare Stoudemire, Tim Duncan, Kobe Bryant, Brandon Roy, and Al Jefferson.For the East: LeBron James, Danny Granger, Rajon Rondo, Dwyane Wade, and Dwight Howard. I like Amare because he has played consistent ball in Phoenix and consistency is the biggest issue with … Read more

Cavs Beat Thunder!

The Cavs pulled out a road win against the Oklahoma City Thunder, 102-91. Big whoop, they beat a terrible team. No, I thought the Thunder put up a good fight for three quarters. Both teams shot well, Cleveland is just better in 48 minutes. A lot of people feel that the Thunder are the laughing … Read more

Lakers Lose 2nd In A Row!

The LA Lakers came up short, losing 106-103 to the Magic. The Lakers are not playing well on either end. On offense, it was basically Kobe and DFish. They combined for 68 points and were two of three players in double figures (Pau chipped in with 11). On defense, they allowed too many threes and … Read more

Knicks Beat Pistons!

The Knicks pulled out a surprising win against Detroit 104-92. I was watching the first half of this game and I was thinking, what the hell is wrong with the Pistons? The Knicks were moving the ball around, getting open threes, layups, just blowing them out in the first half. I knew that in the … Read more
