2010

January 3, 2011 – Alex Rosencutter If only it was 1999 all over again and Steve Francis was the bouncy, heady guard with the potential to dominate the league for years to come. Gone were the days of averaging 20 points a game, posterizing the bigs of the league, and catching oops from Cuttino Mobley [...]

January 3, 2011 – Kevin Burke Is it me or does defending Rookie of the Year and “Mr. 20, 5, and 5”, Tyreke Evans get somewhat overlooked? When people mention the best young guards in the league, his name will get mentioned, but it’s not until after a handful of names are rattled off already. [...]

January 3, 2011 – Allen Moll As the reigning superstar on the NBA’s proven best team over the past 2 seasons, Kobe Bryant has had to endure a ton of criticism to go along with all those awards and praises that come with being arguably one of the Top 3 shooting guards in the history [...]

December 28, 2010 – THD Rumor Patrol Shaquille O’Neal has been one of the most difficult players to officiate his entire career due to his sheer size and power. He is so much bigger than anyone else on the court they seemingly bounce off him making it hard for refs to determine who is being [...]

December 22, 2010 – Kevin Burke Can I bother you for just second? I need you to stop what you’re doing and applaud those ladies from UConn. Last night they won their 89th consecutive game in a 93 – 62 route over #20 Florida State, which was their 53rd win of at least 30 points [...]

December 21, 2010 – THD Rumor Patrol Carmelo Anthony is the most lethal scoring machine in the NBA. Considering that fact plus his relatively young age for an NBA star makes him the prime target of a number of teams once they heard ‘Melo wanted out of Denver this season. Carmelo has made it clear [...]

December 21, 2010 – Kevin Burke Last summer before the season began, Dwight Howard told The Hoop Doctors that despite the Miami Heat forming an Eastern Conference All-Star squad, and the Boston Celtics adding size on their front line, he felt as if his Orlando Magic were the best team in the East. Well, he [...]

December 21, 2010 – Allen Moll There is just no denying that Washington Wizards center Javale McGee is one of the most physically gifted big men in all of the NBA right now. Standing at a wiry 7 feet tall and weighing in at 260 lbs, Javale possesses the skill set of a small forward [...]

December 20, 2010 – Kevin Burke Last week I took a break from Monday’s Weekly Knicks Notes, but if I did scribe one you would’ve read me go on and on about how great the Knicks are. I would’ve bored you into unconsciousness with how they’ve turned the corner and how they can give any [...]

December 20, 2010 – Alex Rosencutter With the first All-Star ballot results released Thursday, I am truly disappointed. People always talk about the corruption of the BCS rankings and how messed up it is. Why not talk about the corruption of the voting process for the NBA All-Star game? The players who are truly deserving [...]
