LeBron James flopped against the San Antonio Spurs in Game 3. Not David-Stern-is-so-going-to-fine-him flopped, but put-up-a-dud-when-the-Miami-Heat-needed-him-most flopped. James closed out Game 3 with 15 points on 7-of-21 shooting (33 percent), including a 1-of-5 showing from downtown (20 percent). He also connected on just 2-of-14 of his shots from outside the paint. Sheesh. For a guy [...]

They’re scary because they’ve apparently yet to peak. Following their win over the Orlando Magic, a number of Heat players told Alex Kennedy of Hoopsworld [...]

The Toronto Raptors may be getting ahead of themselves. Less than 20 games into the Rudy Gay experiment the Raptors are already thinking long term, which is fine.

Stephen Curry should have been selected to the 2013 NBA All-Star…we think. Though the point guard is having a career-year en route to rendering the Golden State Warriors legitimate contenders, he was passed over for the All-Star game in favor of James Harden, Tony Parker and Russell Westbrook. But was such a snub justified? I [...]

Joel Anthony doesn’t look like much, but to the Miami Heat, he means everything. Though the big man has never been much of an offensive player (2.6 points per game for his career), he is a rim-protecting savant, someone who the Heat actually utilized more than slightly last season.
