Blazers 114, Mavs 112 (OT)
This has been a pretty amazing season for the NBA so far. Tons of exciting games and intriguing questions from week to week, and we haven’t even reached the All-Star break yet! But we have a winner for the most amazing thing to happen in the NBA this season:
ANDRE MILLER SCORED 52 POINTS!
Seriously, I would sooner guess that Andre Miller would have 52 assists in a game instead of 52 points. My goodness! The elderly point guard shot 22-31 from the field, and scored 25 of …

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 …

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 …

The 2010 Sprite Slame Dunk Contestants were released today inside of Penn Station in NYC.  A few days ago it was announced that DeMar DeRozan and Eric Gordon will star in the first ever dunk-off which will take place February 12th during the Rookie Challenge and Youth Jam event.  Joining either DeRozan or Gordon are 2009 defending champion (as well as 2006 champ) Nate Robinson, alongside Gerald Wallace and SHANNON BROWN.  I put Shannon Brown in caps because the dude pulls out dunk contest dunks in regular season games! 
It will …

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, …

Pacers 97, Magic 90
When I saw that the fans voted for this game on NBAtv I thought to myself, “What a horrible game to pick.  Without Granger and Murphy the Pacers have no chance.”  Boy was I wrong!  This is the beauty of the NBA in the regular season.  Any team can be any other team despite their records.  The Indiana Pacers were able to limit Dwight Howard to six shots (2-6 from the field) and kept him in foul trouble all night.  Roy Hibbert provided the aggressiveness that this …
