It was a glorious 2012-2013 NBA campaign for the Miami Heat that started back in October with an opening night blowout win over their chief rival Boston Celtics, met in the middle by an amazing 27 game winning streak, leading to a franchise record 66 regular season wins, and culminating in the team’s 3rd NBA [...]

Back in May of last year, THD was one of the first to bring you the initial installation of Pepsi Max’s new basketball themed commercials, starring Cleveland Cavaliers guard Kyrie Irving. Irving dressed up in prosthetic make-up, stars as”Uncle Drew”, an aging hoop star who decides to school a number of today’s younger ballers on [...]
