May 8, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors Everything that could’ve gone wrong with Baron Davis’ knee on Sunday, did. At first, he was rumored to just have a dislocated knee cap. But we have found out that he also has a torn ACL and MCL. Given the fact that he’s 33, was a shell of [...]

May 7, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors The Knicks finally got the multi-year monkey off their back yesterday by beating the Miami Heat in Game 4.
