NBA Trades – The Chances of Dwight Howard Not Staying With the Lakers

Posted on 23 Jan, 2013, by in Basketball

When the season began, this looked like a match made in heaven. Dwight Howard, the best center in the NBA, and the Los Angeles Lakers, a team always thinking about title rings, with a long line of great big men. A few months later, and it wouldn’t be too surprising if this isn’t a match made for life. More

Oklahoma City Thunder – Kevin Durant Shows Who’s the Best in the NBA

Posted on 23 Jan, 2013, by in Basketball

Best player? No, not yet. Not until he takes the Oklahoma City Thunder all the way, possibly again vs the anointed and three time MVP winner, LeBron James. But the best team in the NBA? Probably, if you go by the records. Kevin Durant was too much for their biggest rivals in the West this season, playing without their number one player. More

Milwaukee Bucks – Brandon Jennings & Ersan Ilyasova Taking Over

Posted on 23 Jan, 2013, by in Basketball

It looks like closing out games in the fourth quarters is turning into the Brandon Jennings job, while Monta Ellis takes a side seat to the younger and better guard in the duo, while Ersan Ilyasova is suddenly making up for all of his bad games earlier this season for the Milwaukee Bucks. More

Kyrie Irving Makes Celtics Looks Older Than Ever

Posted on 23 Jan, 2013, by in Basketball

Amid all the talks of needing a trade or not, the Boston Celtics had to go through the Kyrie Irving experience. Not fun, not good. Irving exploded with 40 points, leading the Cleveland Cavaliers to their second win in three games, something that hasn’t happened in over a month. More

Thunder vs Clippers Predictions

Posted on 22 Jan, 2013, by in Basketball

Sometimes big games are about two franchises with a long tradition of rivalry and great meetings. Other times, it’s just about two teams that are the best in the NBA at the moment, with the latter being the case as the Oklahoma City Thunder come to play the Los Angeles Clippers. More

NBA Trades – Pau Gasol is Getting Closer to a Move

Posted on 22 Jan, 2013, by in Basketball

When you’re a career starter like Pau Gasol is, getting to start on the bench not for health reasons is quite a shock, maybe even a serious game changer. While Mike D’Antoni is trying to do whatever he can to get the Los Angeles Lakers back on some sort of winning track, Gasol looks closer to a trade than ever. More

Posted on 22 Jan, 2013, by in Basketball

It’s been official for days – Seattle is getting its basketball team back, while the Sacramento Kings are soon to be a thing of the past. The questions are how will the new/old Sonics/Kings look, who should be their head coach, and what to do with DeMarcus Cousins and Tyreke Evans. More

Posted on 22 Jan, 2013, by in Basketball

Some might say that regardless of their injuries, the Minnesota Timberwolves weren’t supposed to make the playoffs this season. That’s debatable, but what isn’t is their incredible line of injured players now and earlier, including Kevin Love, Ricky Rubio, Chase Budinger and Brandon Roy. More

The Sad Story of the Los Angeles Lakers on the Road

Posted on 22 Jan, 2013, by in Basketball

For the sixth straight time, the Lakers lost on the road. Old, slow, out-coached outplayed, call it whatever you like. The next to torture the bunch that is Kobe Bryant and other superstars like Pau Gasol, Dwight Howard and Steve Nash were the Chicago Bulls, who aren’t that even good at home on most nights. More

There’s somewhat of a pattern forming in the short-term rivalry between the Los Angeles Clippers and the Golden State Warriors, and one of the aspects in it is Stephen Curry going absolutely wild from everywhere on the floor when he faces the team with the best record in the division. More
