Vince Carter

AND1 is one of those sneaker companies that I am going to relate to the way the sneaker OGs are into brands like Diadora & Pony. That being said, it makes me happy to be able to honestly type about a new pair of the AND1 Tai Chi celebrating the 20th anniversary of the company. [...]

Will J.R. Smith ever learn? Vince Carter doesn’t care. Early in the fourth quarter of the Dallas Mavericks 110-108 victory over the New York Knicks Monday night, Smith yanked Carter’s headband as he was running down the court. Why? Because he’s J.R. Smith, headband-tugging, shoelace-untying extraordinaire. Video of the “incident” can be seen below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1lvd2VtY5Q#t=10 [...]

Vince Carter is on to something here. Dwight Howard has been called a lot of things during his time in the NBA. With the Orlando Magic, he was a savior, superstar, cornerstone and, by the end, quintessential jackass. With the Los Angeles Lakers he was God, Satan and a coward. With the Houston Rockets he’s [...]

Breathe easy NBA gurus, Vince Carter isn’t going anywhere. For now. Off-seasons are typically grueling. Most of the time—especially through the months of August and September—there’s nothing going on. For those of you like me, who need to catch up on some sleep, it’s nice. But only for awhile. A week or two into the [...]

People have criticized the NBA All-Star Dunk Contest over the years for not having enough star power to captivate the world’s attention. With names like Darrell Armstrong, Jonathan Bender, and Chris Morris, the dunk contest hasn’t even captivated the attention of the basketball world. Even with contestants like Kobe Bryant, Vince Carter, Shawn Kemp, and [...]

The Dallas Mavericks have thought about it, they know it’s inevitable, but there’s no use pretending Mark Cuban and company were hoping it wouldn’t happen. I’m of course referring to the team being forced to face life without Dirk Nowitzki. Nowitzki, one of the NBA’s most durable and prolific scorers, is having knee troubles, the [...]

August 23, 2012 – Mohamed Abdihakim I have an abashedly biased appreciation for stats guys. There are multiple possible reasons for this. Maybe it’s because I’m a numbers guy and operate with the same sophistication. Or, and infinitely more likely, i’m constantly amazed by how the work that statisticians do often bewilders me and makes [...]

July 11, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors I’m not quite sure if this would qualify as the animation technique called ‘Rotoscoping‘ or not, but regardless of what you call it, its addictive to watch. You will be amazed at how well these stickman animations of classic NBA moments capture the movement and essence of your [...]

April 25, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors Although there were less overall games in the lockout season, it was a wild ride with NBA action virtually every night. It was a dream for most NBA fans, where the only complaint was trying to track too many games at once. But even with less games overall, [...]

March 28, 2012 – Griffin Gotta The Dallas Mavericks currently stand fifth in the Western Conference. Not bad, considering the stop-and-start season they’ve gone through thus far. The season has been one that’s seen age and fatigue, important new players and rustiness mix together for stretches of brilliance. Often, the Mavericks have looked like a [...]
