  • Miami Heat – LeBron James to PF, Chris Bosh to Center

    If it works, don’t try to fix it. Playing small-ball in the NBA Finals worked pretty well for the Miami Heat, who never really relied heavily on whoever has been playing center before the switch, which means LeBron James will continue to play as the team’s power forward while Chris Bosh continues his transition into a full time center.

  • The 2012 Basketball Hall of Fame Inductees

    The last week had a lot of discussions whether Reggie Miller deserves to be in the hall of fame. In our opinion, or at least the one from two years ago, he’s one of the top 10 shooting guards ever, and certainly a player who deserves a place in the hall, along the other players inducted in 2012: Don Barksdale, Jamaal Wilkes, Mel Daniels and Chet Walker.

  • Los Angeles Lakers – Getting by on Starters Alone

    The starting five that the Los Angeles Lakers will present in the 2012-2013 NBA Season will be quite impressive – Kobe Bryant and Steve Nash at guard, Metta World Peace as small forward, Pau Gasol at power forward and Dwight Howard at center. Arguably the best in the NBA. Enough for an NBA title?

  • Barack Obama = Miami Heat; Mitt Romney = Jeremy Lin

    In order to get people who know a lot more about the NBA than they do about politics, United States president Barack Obama released the following comparison: He compared himself to the NBA champions Miami Heat and his foe in the presendtial elections, Republican candidate Mitt Romney, to Jeremy Lin.

  • Boston Celtics – Giving the Keys to Rajon Rondo

    Truth be told, this has been Rajon Rondo’s team for the last couple of seasons, maybe even three. The Boston Celtics may still be led by Kevin Garnett, but there’s no doubt for two-three seasons that their hard to figure out point guard is the guy they’re building around, for good and for bad.

  • Dwight Howard – Still Feels Love for Orlando, not Magic

    Leaving a team to improve your career never sits well with local fans, the ‘betrayed’, and Dwight Howard doesn’t like the fact that Orlando Magic fans (and plenty of others around the NBA) don’t really have too much love for him anymore, after eight seasons with the club. So he takes out an ad, trying to make himself look just a little bit less evil.

  • New York Knicks – Carmelo Anthony Not Taking Them Far

    Hoping that the Carmelo Anthony of the Olympic games is going to show up and whisk the New York Knicks to uncharted territory, meaning a conference semifinal, where they haven’t been to since 2000, is simply putting all your money on a false idol; a player who’s very good, but not good enough to take teams on his back as the leading man.

  • 100 Highest Earners in NBA History

    Two players from the Boston Celtics and one that was there for the past five seasons are in the top 10 earners in the NBA of all time. Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen are among the players to have the highest total career salary among all NBA players, ever. Garnett, who began playing in 1995 with the Minnesota Timberwolves, is the only player to have career earnings of over $300 million.

  • Paul Geroge With the Greatest Dunk of All Time?

    It wasn’t in an NBA game, just some exhibithion performance in Shanghai. Still, Paul Geroge of the Indiana Pacers, known for his athletic ability and dunks, pulled off a reverse 360 between the legs windmill dunk, someone no one has ever managed to do.

  • 10 Youngest Teams in the NBA

    10 Youngest Teams in the NBA

    So what’s better to have when you’re trying to win an NBA title – Youth or Experience? Probably, almost universally speaking, experience. Talent is the actual deciding factor, but teams filled with young stuff are usually in some sort of rebuild mode. The Oklahoma City Thunder, with their three stars all under 24 at the moment, are the exception, and probably a bit of a fluke in how they came together.
