LeBron Leads Cavs Past Trailblazers in Throwback Fashion, Spurs and Lakers Cruise

Cavs 106, Trailblazers 94
First off, I’d like to say I honestly thought Craig Ehlo was in the game. The throwback unis the Cavs were wearing reminded me of the Cavalier teams in the early 90s.
That being said – LeBron was scorching hot, shooting 10-12 and scoring 31 in only the first half. It must’ve been the shoes – which were Knick orange and blue (he can deny it all he wants).  The first half had everyone happy in Cleveland – even Shaq kissed and hugged a fan in a front …

Point Guards Dominate Tonight: Paul, Rondo, & Davis All Lead Their Teams to Victory

New Orleans 115, Washington 110
Watch out NBA, the Hornets are back to their winning ways. They are becoming a force to be reckoned with.
After tonight’s victory against the Wizards (12-23), the Hornets (19-16) are 16-8 after starting 3-8. Pretty impressive for a team that looked dead in the water when Chris Paul went down. Talking the about gentleman himself, he had another terrific night, 26 points, 14 assists, and 3 steals. The man is unbelievable. He did get support tonight though. Six players for New Orleans were in double figures, including …

Bobcats Win in Wild Finish, Hawks Part of Magic Disappearing Act, Knicks Fall to Houston

Bobcats 89, Grizzlies 87
The Grizzlies let win #19 slip away.  The Bobcats are a great home team and they showed it tonight after by down by double digits at the half they came back to get the big W.  It was a very exciting finish, the Bobcats were up 3 on a huge shot by Felton and after a Bobcats turnover Rudy Gay got SWATTED by Gerald Wallace to create the turnover but the following possession OJ Mayo hit a 3 to tie the score at 87.  Felton drove down, …

Blazers Handle Lakers, Nuggets Beat Cavs, and More!

Trail Blazers 107, Lakers 98

The Ref was right in two different situations regarding this game. First, the Trail Blazers have the potential to be a great team, and secondly, it will be very interesting to see how the Lakers play in road games, considering their favorable home scheduling to start the season. Portland got off to a solid start, and held of all of the Lakers charges to win this one. I’ve noticed lately that the Lakers either blow teams out, or amass large comebacks (featuring a Kobe buzzer beater) …

Bullets Shoot Down Magic, Nets Lose in Heartbreaking Fashion, and Much More!

Wizards 104, Magic 97

The Washington Wizards Bullets addressed the home crowd before this game, to help ease the frustrations that I’m sure so many of their fans are feeling. Thankfully for the fans, the Wizards didn’t just talk…they came back from a 10 point deficit in the 4th quarter to beat Orlando. It’s been a rough year for the Wizards, but in the fourth quarter, the fans really helped push their team along.
Antawn Jamison (28 pts), Caron Butler (23 pts), and Randy Foye (20 pts., shout out to JB’s Fantasy …

Nate, Refs Leads Knicks’ Surge Past Bobcats

Knicks 97, Bobcats 93
After a dismal 1-9 start, the New York Knicks are finally starting to show they got their act together (Nets – take notice).
If you were like me and love basketball so much that you spent tonight watching this game, you were in a for a treat. Down by 10 after a rough start to the third quarter, Nate-the-Great mounted 8 of his 10 points in a matter of minutes. After a pullup three to end the third, followed by a dunk and another three to start …

Spurs Out-Run Detroit, Nash Leads Win, and Pau-Less Lakers get Dominated by Clippers Big Men

San Antonio 112, Detroit 92
When a team shoots 58% from the floor, there isn’t much the opposition can do.
Detroit (11-23) played well in San Antonio, but was no much for the 4th quarter run the Spurs (21-12) thrashed upon them. The Pistons went into AT&T Center and did everything they could to thwart their 10-game losing skid. Detroit was down 2 entering the final quarter. Then it went all down hill. The Spurs shot the lights out by going 75% from the floor, and ended the game with 20-6 run.
San …
