March 12, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors We’ve seen some odd tattoos of NBA players over the years. But it’s not often we have seen a female tattoo herself with a massive image of their favorite player. In this case the inspiration was surefire HOF’er Gary Payton. A friend of the girl with the tattoo [...]

March 12, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors No question about it, Gerald Green of the New Jersey Nets on Saturday threw down the dunk of the year without question. This was sick, wicked, and nasty. Windmill alleyoop where he takes his head way over the rim. If the video wasn’t sick enough, check out first [...]

March 9, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors Well that certainly didn’t take long. First, the Clippers told poor “Clipper Darrell” to drop the “Clipper” from his name, and now this.

March 7, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors The All-Star Weekend is great from a fan perspective, but I’m sure it’s taxing on the players. Can you just imagine all of the media that they have to do? It’s non-stop. Apparently, it’s too much for a few… “The NBA fined the Los Angeles Lakers guard [Kobe [...]

March 7, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors No that title isn’t a misprint. Eddy Curry and ‘alley-oop’ can still go in the same sentence without the earth blowing up. Remember when Curry showed up for camp with the Heat this year about half his normal size? Well apparently losing all that weight has enabled him [...]
