March 21, 2012 – Dan Favale The Heat continue to win—14 straight at home, in fact—but lately, it has been far from pretty. Leading up to the NBA All-Star Game, Miami was exuding a level of dominance that many didn’t even know their big three led squad was capable of. Double-digit margins of victory became [...]

March 21, 2012 – Allen Moll We see it every year when it comes to NCAA players declaring early for the NBA Draft despite just mediocre success at the collegiate level. It’s a recipe for disaster, and usually winds up with the player either going un-drafted or being taken in the 2nd Round with a [...]

March 19, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors This is not a joke. At first I thought this tidbit from the Suns camp was a spoof of some sort. Something cooked up by the comedian/NBA star Steve Nash possibly? But no, its true the Phoenix Suns organization has spent $50,000 on cryosauna to freeze the players [...]

March 16, 2012 – Dan Favale Dwight Howard will remain with the Orlando Magic until next season, meaning that Deron Williams’ future with the New Jersey Nets is officially the epitome of uncertainty.

The New York Knicks are losers of six straight, and have posted a record of 2-8 since Anthony’s return from a groin injury. To put it lightly, the going has gotten tough, but that’s supposed to be when the tough get [...]

March 14, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors We apologize for skipping over this important tidbit of news yesterday. With the lockout condensed season, things are happening quickly on a day to day basis in the NBA. We thought however this was worth noting for the ‘Big Fundamental’. Tim Duncan on Monday night against the Wizards [...]

March 13, 2012 – Dan Favale The Orlando Magic’s scramble to keep Dwight Howard has officially been kicked into overdrive, with the person of interest now being Monta Ellis. But will a deal be struck? Alex Kennedy of HOOPSWORLD confirmed an earlier report that the Magic were discussing a potential three-team trade with the Hornets [...]

March 13, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors The past week in the NBA has been more of the same greatness we have been treated to throughout the entire lockout shortened season. High flying dunks, amazing dimes, buzzer beaters, and unfortunately some injuries to key players. Was Gerald Green’s windmill alley-oop the dunk of the year? [...]

March 12, 2012 – Dan Favale Dwight Howard is a presence that any team should welcome with open arms, except for the Chicago Bulls. The Bulls have league’s best record, and manipulating a roster that clearly isn’t broken could prove costly down the stretch. [...]
