  • 2012 Dream Team – When LeBron James Has to Step Up

    All of a sudden it got hard. After winning the first three games by an average of 52.3 point, the 2012 version of the Dream Team faced a real battle with Lithuania, never an easy outing, beating the European 99-94, with LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony each scoring 20 points to give Team USA their fourth win of the Olympic games.

  • 2012 Dream Team – Cruising for Gold, so Far

    They said that this USA team starts slowly, resulting in a 49-25 first quarter, a new record for points in the Olympic games (156) and a new record for biggest margin (83 points) while Carmelo Anthony led the torching of the poor Nigeria team, scoring 37 points in just 14 minutes. It shouldn’t be this easy, should it?

  • Dream Team 2012 – Kevin Durant & USA have it Easy vs France

    Kobe Bryant said that it won’t be an easy game against France. Everyone who watched it begs to differ, as the 2012 Dream Team, Team USA, had no problem from the second quarter onward against the athletic French team with 6 NBA players, winning their Olympics opener 98-71, with Kevin Durant leading the way with 22 points.

  • LeBron James or Michael Jordan – The Impossible Argument

    Not too long ago, a big deal was made when Scottie Pippen said that LeBron James could be greater than Michael Jordan when it’s all said and done. Eventually, he backtracked from what he said, claiming he was quoted out of context anyway. If anyone knows how good Michael Jordan was, painfully so at times, it’s Scottie Pippen.

  • London 2012 – Dream Team Can’t Be Beat en route to Gold

    In what was supposed to be Team USA’s hardest and sternest test before beginning the real deal, the 2012 Olympic basketball tournament, the Americans cruised to a 100-78 victory over Spain, led by LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony in another game that showed everything that makes up for the noticeable deficiencies the 2012 dream team has.

  • London 2012 – LeBron James is the Dream Team Leader

    Back in 2008, despite all the young stars, it was Kobe Bryant who took team USA on his back in the final against Spain. This time, LeBron James showed that 2012 might be his turn to lead the Dream Team if things get a little tight, like they did in the exhibition game against Brazil.

  • 2012 Olympics – Kevin Durant Doesn’t Like Seeing LeBron James

    It’s been three weeks since the Oklahoma City Thunder lost to the Miami Heat in game 5 of the NBA finals, and Kevin Durant is now practicing with LeBron James, preparing with the 2012 version of the USA dream team, heading into the Olympic Games in London. Needless to say, he finds the whole situation a bit… weird.

  • London 2012 – Next USA Dream Team Ready for Olympic Games

    After so many injuries to players from the 2008 Redeem team and for others projected to be among the final 12 player going to the 2012 Olympic Games in London, the 12-man roster of the United States men’s basketball team is ready, with five players (LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Chris Paul, Deron Williams and Carmelo Anthony) from the gold medal winning team four years ago.

  • NBA Loyalty – It Doesn’t Exist

    Those of you who were surprised to see Steve Nash give up on a chance to end his career with the Phoenix Suns, instead opting to play for the Los Angeles Lakers for money and a better chance at at an NBA title were probably just as surprised as Ray Allen in Miami Heat uniform seems to be a done deal.
