May 22, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors Last year’s rookie class wasn’t exactly one of the most heralded bunches we’ve seen. They came in without much hype. Today, the league announced the all rookie teams and seven guys made the 1st team. Cavaliers point guard Kyrie Irving, the 2011-12 Rookie of the Year, was the [...]

May 21, 2011 – The Hoop Doctors This shouldn’t really come as a shock to anyone. The way in which the season ended for the Orlando Magic was one for the ages. Dwight Howard and Stan Van Gundy engaged in a back-and-forth about whether or not Dwight wanted to play for Van Gundy. And for [...]

May 21, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors Some people may not be aware, but the Golden State Warriors call Oakland home. But that may not be the case for much longer. It looks like they will be packing their bags and heading to San Francisco in 2017. According to @GSWFastBreak, the Warriors have finalized plans [...]

May 16, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors Even with a healthy Chris Bosh in the lineup, the Heat were going to have their hands full with the Indiana Pacers. They’re not going to grab headlines, but the Pacers are a very good team. They have Larry Bird to thank for that… Not only was he [...]

May 16, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors In Game 1, the Thunder completely embarrassed the Lakers and ran them out the gym. Even though they’re young, the Thunder really don’t have any holes on their roster. But they may in Game 2 if Kendrick Perkins can’t go. Thunder center Kendrick Perkins, who aggravated a right [...]

May 15, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors Sounds a bit odd to hear that a 25 year old ‘man’ has been hired into an executive position of an NBA franchise, doesn’t it? The Golden State Warriors have promoted Kirk Lacob to the position of Assistant General Manager, the team announced today. But I guess it’s [...]

May 14, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors Last week, Pacers coach Frank Vogel said that he thought the Heat were great Floppers. If you thought that comment would go unpunished, you’re wrong.
