Power Rankings: Week 4
Entering the fourth week in the NBA, a few teams rebounded nicely out of some doubt and negativity. Chicago, Portland, New York, Toronto, and Oklahoma City are just a few of the teams to fit in that category. It’s early and there is a lot of basketball left, but Chicago and Oklahoma City really illustrated what they are capable of. The Bulls are without Carlos Boozer, had a tough early schedule, and still adapting to Tom Thibodeaus system but Derrick Rose is proving himself to …
As the Miami Heat enjoys it’s slaughtering of Phoenix last night with Chris Bosh finally showing up for game time and then ending with his ridiculous stupid comments, the man that was dealt to Minnesota for him to come there was making a game winning jumper to propel his team to a promising future. I could only be talking about Michael Beasley.
In this early season, Mr. Beasley has proven 28 teams that had a chance to trade for him wrong for not picking him up, especially the Toronto Raptors. …
Throughout his long but still, very young career, Josh Smith of the Atlanta Hawks has treated us all with some disgusting dunk highlights. It’s about time we reflect on this as he continues to shine in the awe of the Human Highlight Reel: Dominique Wilkins. Of course, I would never compare the two, primarily because Mr. Smith will never reach the caliber of Mr. Wilkins but they are also two entirely different players.
I am going to be honest, I can ‘t stand when the …
Power Rankings: Week 3
This week we saw some teams rise and fall,and than there are some that are about to hit the panic button. Sacramento, Washington, Philadelphia, and New York are of the latter category. John Wall goes down with an ankle injury in his first encounter against Derrick Rose and Gilbert Arenas is making the team unbelievably worse. Is it an entertaining idea to suggest someone to retire when they still have the skills to play at a high level for any team? Honestly, can …
This week has brought us some terrific hoops, story lines, and heartbreaking truths. That last one is for Knicks and Portland fans.
Trailblazer lovers have more of a reason to be upset as they will bare witness the slow but tragic fall of Brandon Roy. It won’t be immediate, but when the man plays the game of basketball with bone on bone friction, only bad things will happen. His speed will break down , he won’t be able to elevate to make his patented pull up jumper, …
Sonny Weems hasn’t done much in his short tenure with the Toronto Raptors, but what he has down is electrify the Raptors faithful with thrilling dunks of insane difficulty. If you haven’t seen his past resume, you have to watch this video
Now you know what you are dealing with. Poor Brandon Wright didn’t do his homework and in his lack of studies…He got POSTERIZED!
In addition, you get a nice Vince Carter highlight. Just a little something extra from NBAtoday….and Yahoo!
Here we are ladies and gents, the second week of the season and already so much to get excited about. The Heat show flashes of brilliance with the Big Three putting in their best efforts to find chemistry. Chris Paul is happy at the moment with New Orleans starting undefeated and how about the Atlanta Hawks, who thought they would start out this hot. I guess I am doubting Joe Johnson way too much after the ridiculous amount of money he is making. A lot of …
