It’s been a tough year for Glen Davis – completely at the fault of himself. But there is still one other thing that could make the year worse for him: a nickname that is worse than ‘Big Baby’.
To start the season, Davis missed the first 27 games due to an off-court fight that led people to question his focus and maturity. How he could jeopardize his season and career by being involved in a fight is beyond me, but I had certainly hoped he had learned his lesson. Looks like …
Each week NBAtoday.net compiles a list of the top 10 rookies in the NBA. Leave a comment on your top rookies of the 2009-2010 season!
New Additions This Week: Marcus Thorton
1. Tyreke Evans – The guys on NBA Shootaround said Evans is the runaway winner for ROY, they must have gotten that from me.
2. Stephen Curry – It took a month until Curry found a rythme but now he has found his stroke and is making over 1.5 3′s per game.
3. Omri Casspi– Casspi has struggled to score consistently and hasn’t played …
Bobcats 114, Suns 109
Stephen Jackson and the Bobcats answered the call winning a huge game in overtime on the road against the Suns. Jackson tied the game at 98 with a three pointer over Steve Nash with 19 seconds left in the game. The Suns had a chance to win in regulation when Nash drove and kicked out to a well guarded Jared Dudley. Dudley’s contested jump shot hit the back iron, forcing overtime. In overtime Jackson, who scored 30 points in the game, continued to dominate scoring 9 of …
In the past few days, there have been plenty of rumors flying about the possibility of Amare Stoudemire, Chris Bosh, and Carlos Boozer all being dealt before the trade deadline in mid-February. If you look at the teams that these three players belong to, they are all teams in the playoff hunt.
Bosh’s Toronto Raptors currently sit in 6th place in the Eastern Conference, with 23 wins and 22 losses.
The Phoenix Suns are 26-20, which is good for 7th place in the Western Conference.
The Utah Jazz are a legit 4th place …
If I made a list of the best forwards in the league, names like LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Dirk Nowitzki, and Kevin Garnett would top the charts. Today I am going to mention three players listed at “Small Forward” and/or “Power Forward” only according to Yahoo! who have had surprisingly well year up to this point.
1. Kevin Durant – Now I know a lot of people can easily argue that he is one of the top small forwards and I agree 100%. I am mentioning him because for as good …
Hawks 102, Rockets 95
Boy, those Hawks looked impressive. Not only did they snap a 10-game losing streak in Houston (it was Y2K mania last time they won), but also in dominating style. Atlanta kept a double-digit lead in the game until late in the fourth quarter, helped by a nice 21-3 run in the second quarter.
Most starting lineups in the NBA have 5 players. But honestly, Atlanta plays like they have 6 night in and night out. Another solid performance for my pick for 6th man of the year – …
Cavs 92, Heat 91
This game matched up two of the games biggest superstars, with LeBron James taking on Dwyane Wade. The difference in this game was one team’s supporting cast, out performing the others’. Both James and Wade had 32 points apiece, but it was the play of their supporting casts that was the difference. The Cavs, playing without Mo Williams and Delonte West, got 15 points including 4 treys from Boobie Gibson. Shaq had a great game as well with 19 points on 9 of 13 shooting. The Heat …
