Posted on 18 Jun, 2013, by in Featured

What are the chances the Miami Heat comes back from 2-3 down in their NBA Finals series against the San Antonio Spurs? Despite playing the last two games at home, they’re not too good, as only four teams have ever managed to turn that kind of deficit around in games 6 & 7 in the 2-3-2 format. More

Posted on 15 Jun, 2013, by in Basketball

Superstars want to play together, even if it might mean less money. For the sake of having fun, and to win titles. Dwight Howard and Chris Paul are good friends, and after missing out on working out a deal to join forces two years ago, the summer of 2013 might see them fulfill their wish, maybe even with the Atlanta Hawks, or on a more radical notion, for the Los Angeles Clippers.

Two relatively young franchises will meet in the 2013 NBA finals; the Miami Heat, making it for the fourth time in franchise history, and the Spurs, making it for a fifth time, hoping to keep their perfect record. Both of them haven’t been around as long as the teams with the most appearances have, especially not the Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers. More

It’s either staying with the Los Angeles Lakers, or leaving to the Houston Rockets, with the Dallas Mavericks presumably off the table for him. More

NBA Rumors – Dwight Howard Wants to Play for the Houston Rockets & Dallas Mavericks

Posted on 20 May, 2013, by in Basketball

Don’t close the door on the Los Angeles Lakers just yet, the hardest team in the NBA to say no to. But Dwight Howard isn’t going to make it easy. Instead of being a simple case of re-signing him to a max contract, Howard is about to test the waters, as some love to say, in free agency, being extremely interested in the developing situations in Texas for either the Houston Rockets or the Dallas Mavericks.

Chris Paul & Dwight Howard Present – The LA Exodus

Posted on 6 May, 2013, by in Basketball

Los Angeles Lakers – What’s Next?

Posted on 30 Apr, 2013, by in Featured

No matter what kind of mutterings you’ll hear, the Los Angeles Lakers failed in the 2012-2013 NBA season, barely making it into the playoffs and getting swept in the first round. Kobe Bryant will be back eventually, hopefully not too far from his ability from before the injury. The biggest decisions for the Lakers remain with re-signing Dwight Howard, keeping (or not) Mike D’Antoni while making up their minds about the future of Pau Gasol, Metta World Peace and Steve Nash.
