April 11, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors How many people does it take to technically start using the word “crowd”? I’m asking in case I misprinted the title by using the word ‘crowd’. During the Monday night blowout loss to the Washington Wizards things hit rock bottom for the Charlotte Bobcats. Not only did the [...]

April 11, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors Because of Rajon Rondo, the Boston Celtics are no longer the Big 3. Sometimes it appears as if they’re just the big 1 because of his production. His floor leadership seems like it would fit an international style of play (just based on his floor general qualities), but [...]

April 10, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors The UConn men will not be participating in the 2013 NCAA tournament due to poor academics. Because of this, Alex Oriakhi has decided to transfer. Sophomore, Jeremy Lamb has decided to leave school early and you can expect freshman Andre Drummond to do the same soon. University of [...]

April 10, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors When you think of Lakers’ Josh McRoberts, you don’t think of a highlight reel dunker. You certainly don’t think of a potential dunk contest participant.

April 10, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors Derrick Rose has had a forgettable season. The reigning MVP has missed most of the year due to injury. Most recently he was sidelined for 12 games due to internal bleeding in his groin. Ouch. But he returned Sunday against the Knicks. The Bulls play the Knicks again [...]

April 10, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors Last week we let you know about a Lebanese player who scored an incredible 113 points in a single game. It was Mohammad El Akkari of Moutahed who scored the miraculous total in a Lebanese Division A League Final 8 game. At the time the news was breaking [...]

April 9, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors What an up-and-down year for Zach Randolph. Coming into this season, the Grizzlies were supposed to be one of the best young rosters. Then Z-Bo got hurt and missed some time. Now he’s back and healthy, but was involved in a car crash. We’re not sure how hurt [...]

April 9, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors I think we all know Coach Mike Woodson is a defensive minded coach. And if you don’t consider him to be at the same level defensively as a Tom Thibodeau, at the very least you have to recognize how polar opposite he is from former Knicks’ Coach Mike [...]
