Miami Heat

Hate is a strong word, so let’s just say the San Antonio Spurs really, really, really don’t like the Miami Heat. Or that LeBron James is really, really, really delusional. Talking with reporters ahead of Game 1 of the 2014 NBA Finals, which will take place Thursday night, LeBron concluded that the Spurs have no [...]

Ron Harper School: Miami University Drafted: 8th pick (1986) NBA Experience: 15 seasons Playoffs: 10 Awards/Accomplishments: 5-time champion (Bulls, Lakers) [...]

Dwyane Wade won’t let you put the blame for LeBron James’ free-agency decision on him. Maybe Akron will. But Wade won’t. People haven’t stopped talking bout LeBron’s free agency this year. It’s most definitely not as bad as the 2009-10 campaign, when he was trapped in the utter, star sidekick-less hell known as Cleveland, but [...]

If Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling has his way, LeBron James won’t be playing in the NBA next season. No, seriously, this is not a drill. You are not reading The Onion.

Allow us to start with the truth: Neither Chris Bosh nor LeBron James is going to leave the Miami Heat in free agency. But it’s fun/interesting/perfectly normal/necessary to speculate.

Last Tuesday, the Indiana Pacers roared back en route to a 101-85 victory, and a series tie, behind the play of All-Star Paul George (27 points and 10 rebounds) keeping the pace, but it was the Pacers bench, Louis Scola (20 points and 7 rebounds) and C.J.

Al Jefferson and the Charlotte Bobcats are in trouble. At least one key player always gets injured during the first week of the NBA playoffs. It’s like a postseason rite of passage. A very, very unfortunate rite of passage. This past weekend was no different. We saw Tim Duncan give the San Antonio Spurs a [...]

Folks, you made it. Congratulations. The NBA regular season is over. It’s done. Finished. Finito. And good riddance. Don’t get me wrong, this season was crazy. Downright exciting. But it also sucked. It sucked so freaking hard. More than it’s sucked in the past few years. Did it rival the 2011-12 lockout-truncated season? Shit, I [...]

Not even Jesus Christ can save the New York Knicks now. Then again, Raymond Felton isn’t asking him to. J.R. Smith launched an NBA-record 22 three-pointers during the Knicks’ Sunday afternoon loss to the Miami Heat. So, wow.
