As the final games come to a close before the heralded All-Star Break, we had two exciting games left on the Docket.
Cavs 115, Magic 106
Cleveland had to look past a 40 point second quarter by the Magic, but LeBron took matters into his own hands. If his 32 points wasn’t impressive enough, his 13 assists was. He made his entire team better on this night, with J.J. Hickson (20 pts), Anderson Varejao (16), Daniel Gibson (11) and Shaq (10) all scoring in double figures in the win. LBJ also scored …
After over three months of NBA battles night-in and night-out, it’s time for those who make the headlines to make some more as the best of the best get together in Dallas for All-Star Weekend. Jerry Jones has given the keys to Cowboys Stadium to David Stern for the weekend to host the biggest event in NBA history. Everything’s bigger in Texas, right? So I think the expectations are pretty high – and we can’t wait!
Friday Night
Rookie Challenge (9pm TNT)
The Rookie-Sophomore game is normally a one-sided affair owned by the …
Well, no, it won’t be. But while I have your attention I might as well explain the concerns that are real around this situation.
There are some travel issues due to snow storms that apparently are going on all over the U.S. The east coast got hit so hard that the Nets were just under their average attendance at 1,016 spectators. Well, it’s not the same storm, but even Dallas is feeling some chill. By the end of Thursday night, the Dallas/Fort Worth area is expected to accumulate 4-6 inches of …

Rick Pitino Back to the NBA?
What a crazy Thursday morning for Rick Pitino, the New Jersey Nets, and media outlets around America. Current college coach of Louisville Rick Pitino was originally rumored to be scheming a comeback to the sidelines in the NBA. I first heard this morning that he reached out to the Nets, either Rod Thorn or prospective owner Mikhail Prokhorov, on …
Bucks 97, Nets 77
In a game where Shooter and I (JB) were supposed to go to, the Nets hung tough until the end of the third quarter. The snowstorm that hit the Tri-State area caused many fans to stay home. However there were about 1,000 fans who came to see the Nets lose again and did not come away disappointed. The Nets contained Brandon Jennings who only scored eight points, but his back up, Luke Ridnour, went off for 17 points. Andrew Bogut led the Bucks with 22 points, 9 …
Tonight the New Jersey Nets faced off against the Milwaukee Bucks at the Izod Center in Rutherford, New Jersey. For our readers around the country and the world who may not be aware of this, a blizzard hit the New Jersey/New York area late last night. The snow continued all day forcing many New Jersyians to stay home. At game time there was only about 1,000 fans in attendance so the Nets allowed everyone to move down and watch the game courtside! A great gesture by the Nets considering that …
Heat 99, Rockets 66
The Heat’s defense looked like the best in the entire universe for one game only… not really. It was a combination of that and HRBL shooting by the Rockets who shot 30% for the game. The Rockets highest scoring quarter in this game was 24 points and the other three were 11, 15 and 16. Embarassing. Miami’s bench outscored Houston’s 48-24 and the high scorer for the Heat was D-Wade with just 17 points. Miami hit 41 shots and 27 of them were assisted which is a …
