January 25, 2011 – Joshua Sexton At the halfway mark of the NBA season, all of the teams who were expected to be at the top of the standings are right where they were expected to be. In the Eastern Conference, the Celtics, Heat, Bulls and Magic occupy the top four spots. In the Western [...]

January 24, 2011 – Joshua Sexton During TNT’s telecast of the Bulls vs Mavericks game on Thursday night, Reggie Miller gave his MVP front runners for the first half of the season. His five picks included: LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Derrick Rose, Amar’e Stoudemire and Dirk Nowitzki. All five players are having great seasons, and [...]

January 18, 2011 – Kevin Burke The Los Angeles Lakers are the 2-time defending NBA Champions and have a legit shot at earning their second 3-peat in recent memory. They have the most skilled player in the league in Kobe Bryant, and probably the most offensively gifted big man in Pau Gasol. They are coached [...]

January 4, 2011 – Joshua Sexton For a moment, let’s go back to the 2009 Western Conference Playoffs. The Rockets had just lost game three of their semi-final playoff series to the eventual champion Lakers. Even more crippling than the loss to Los Angeles was the injury Yao suffered in the process. In the game [...]

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 [...]

De France More than just proving that he still has plenty left in the tank, Kobe Bryant’s 33 points in the Los Angeles Lakers’ 103-90 victory over the Detroit Pistons last week showed me something else. Not only did he look healthier, quicker, and lighter on his feet, but Bryant [...]

November 17, 2010 – THD Rumor Patrol The Milwaukee Bucks are no joke this year in the Eastern Conference. Brandon Jennings is playing out of his mind, and although Bogut isn’t 100% yet, he’s putting up great numbers. So it was no easy victory last night for the LA Lakers to snap their 2 game [...]

November 15, 2010 – THD Rumor Patrol It was just one of those games for the Phoenix Suns where throwing it in the hoop was like throwing it into the ocean. Shooting a blistering 50%+ from the three point line is nothing to sneeze at. Setting a franchise record for made three’s is also incredible [...]

November 12, 2010 – THD Rumor Patrol The Lakers are still the team to beat. They are the defending champions after all. But with that said they are not the team to beat right now. Who is? The New Orleans Hornets. The Hornets are the only team left in the 2010-11 season that has yet [...]

October 13, 2010 – Joshua Sexton Since coming to the Lakers midway through the 2007-2008 season, Pau Gasol has played a huge role in leading the Lakers to winning back to back NBA championships, making three straight finals appearances, and making two straight All Star and All NBA third teams. In doing so, Gasol has [...]
