Rajon Rondo

November 12, 2008 – Dr. Dime In the NBA TV broadcast analysis of the Lakers/Dallas game tonight, Gary Payton made some pretty bold statements about Rajon Rondo and his place on the Championship Celtics last season. Payton essentially implied that Rondo didn’t deserve his championship ring, that he just was lucky to be on a [...]

June 18th, 2008 – Dr. J-Water Coming in to this game most of the discussions I heard regarding the game were about Kobe Bryant. Will he be able to extend the series for the Lakers? Will a win or loss affect his legacy in the NBA? Will Kobe be a passer, or will Kobe be [...]

June 16th, 2008 – Dr. Browntorious Well it wasn’t pretty now was it? But a win is still a win, and the season is still alive for the Lakers. Unfortunately for Lakers fans all of those questions regarding Kobe Bryant’s offensive performance thus far in this series have still not been answered. He did improve [...]

June 1, 2008 – Dr. Anklesnap All season long there has been a build-up of excitement towards the potential for the most successful franchise in NBA history, the Boston Celtics, to possibly get back to the NBA’s greatest stage, the NBA Finals. With an NBA best 16 NBA championship titles under their belt, the Boston [...]

May 31, 2008 – Dr. Browntorious The best there is, possibly to become the best there was, and who knows eventually he could be the best there will ever be – Kobe Bryant. Although there is much debate already amongst The Hoop Doctors on the eventual outcome of the NBA Finals, there is no doubt [...]

May 13th, 2008 – Dr. Dime I will not say Lebron James is struggling offensively. Considering his penetration, passing, positioning, and even just the defensive attention he attracts it makes for good team offense regardless. What I will say is that all series long Lebron James has struggled with his shot. The only reason his [...]
