The Melo Hour

Remember Magic Hour? The one hour talk show hosted by Magic Johnson and was canceled within its first two weeks on UPN. It’s not an insult if you don’t, because it was the biggest abomination of a show in this and the next generation. Actually, you probably saved a few days or months of your life. It was an embarrassment. Not interesting, intriguing, intelligent, or what in-adjective you can think of to say the least. It was God awful.
Now, with this Melo …

Never Forget, Never Forgive

This is the second portion of a two a day article…click here to read the first part.
Second item on my mind: Will Cleveland ever forgive Lebron James? Anyone who reads my articles or has ever read my posts in the past has a complete comprehension of my disdain for ‘The King’, but should he be exiled from his hometown forever. I understand the levity of the question because the first query that comes to my mind is “Does he deserve it?” My initial, knee-jerk response is absolutely …

Granger Halts Bobcats Win Streak; LeBron Has Another Triple-Double; Spurs are HOT!

Pacers 99, Bobcats 94
I honestly cannot remember the last time I did a recap that had the Pacers winning a game so I decided to cover this game tonight.  With Gerald Wallace of the Bobcats out with an ankle sprain the Pacers did just enough to win.  The Pacers capitalized in Wallace’s absence by scoring thirty-two points in the second quarter.  Danny Granger led the Pacers with 26 points (9-25 from the field) and Troy Murphy had 16 points and 13 rebounds.  Mike Dunleavy had 15 points off the bench …

New Look Wiz Pull Away from T-Wolves; Spurs Win Despite Duncan’s Struggles; Rose Flourishes in the Garden; and More!

Wizards 108, Timberwolves 99
Gilbert Arenas: suspended indefinitely for his “prank.”  Caron Butler and Brendan Haywood: traded to the Mavericks for Josh Howard, Gooden (Who they already traded), and James Singleton.  Antawn Jamison: traded in a three way deal to the Cavs for Big Z and Al Thornton (Clippers).
Four of the five projected starters this season for the Washington Wizards are now no longer with the team, but that was not a problem tonight for the new look WizKidz.  Andray Blatche, a last second starter after the Jamison trade, responded by …

Nets Lose in Front of 1,000 Fans; Hornets Outlast the Celtics; Heat Torch the Hawks; plus more!

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 …

Nets Win?!?!?; Grizz Top Pistons; Heat Continue to Skid Vs. Raptors

Nets 103, Clippers 87
A congratulations is in order for the New Jersey Nets!  It only took 27 days for the Nets to win their first game in 2010 and I am sure Shooter could not be happier at this moment.  They were able to overcome not playing with Devin Harris and Courtney Lee due to injuries.  In Harris’ place, Keyon “The Combo Guard” Dooling stepped up with 18 points and 8 assists.  Kris Humphries (this is not a typo) abused the Clippers shooting 10-13, finishing with 25 points and 8 …

Mavs Squeeze by Wiz; Bobcats Extinguish Heat; Dalembert a Class Act

Mavs 94,  Wiz 93
Down one with time running out, Caron Butler had a chance to propel his Wizards to victory.  Unfortunately for Butler, Shawn Marion was standing in the way.  Marion blocked Butler’s 16 footer giving the Mavericks another one point victory. Dirk Nowitzki led the Mavs with 28 points.  Jason Terry added 21 off the bench and Shawn Marion finished with both 12 points and 12 rebounds.  Jason Kidd only scored 6 points but he dished out 15 assists.  Randy Foye, who has played well in the absence of …
