It was there for the taking. The Clippers, without Kawhi Leonard, were a pair of Paul George free throws away from just about sealing the deal and evening up the Western Conference Finals series 1-1. Clinging to a one-point lead with 8.2 seconds to play, Paul George–a dude who shot 87% from the line this… Read More “Valley-Oop,” George’s Missed Free Throws Give Suns Incredible Game 2 Win
I don’t even know what’s going on in this man’s head. He is completely afraid of the rim: When you look at the still shot, it’s insane that he did not go up with the ball here: This man needs to see a sports psychologist or something. It is 100% a confidence thing. He has… Read More Ben. Simmons.
Last night’s game seven between the Bucks and the Nets was one of the greatest basketball games I’ve ever watched. It was close all game, dozens of lead changes, big shots left and right, and you had two of the best players in the world going toe-to-toe. Neither team could pull away, and it felt… Read More I Was Wrong About the Bucks!
The Clippers just closed out the top-seeded Utah Jazz in six games to advance to the first-ever conference finals in Clippers franchise history. They celebrated like they just won the NBA championship, but hey, that’s okay. It was an incredible win. The Jazz were up as much as 25 in the second half but the… Read More You Cannot Call Kawhi a Top-5 Player in the League After This
Damn, he didn’t hold back: The thing is, he was saying this stuff before the season started. I have been saying since the playoffs started that the shortened offseason was bad for players and likely causing all these injuries, but I was only saying that because LeBron was saying it. I figured he knew what… Read More LeBron Blasts NBA for Putting Players at Higher Injury Risk
49 points, 17 rebounds, 10 assists on a ridiculous 16-23 shooting. No Kyrie, James Harden in the game but basically a decoy the entire night. Series tied 2-2, everyone calling you dead in the water. This is one for the history books. He played all 48 minutes. Didn’t sit at all. He hit a huge… Read More Kevin Durant With a Playoff Performance for the Ages
Last night, the Sixers had a chance to go up 3-1 on Atlanta and take control of the series. I believe they were up as much as 18 in the first half, and went into halftime with a 13 point lead. If Philly won last night they would have one game remaining to close out… Read More What Has Happened to Ben Simmons?
It’s about damn time. I can’t stand watching a go up for a three then lean into the defender to try and draw contact, and still get the call: When you shoot a jump shot, you are entitled to your vertical space based on where you take off from, and you should not be able… Read More NBA to Re-Examine Rules On “Unnatural Motions” by Jump Shooters to Intentionally Draw Fouls; PLUS, All-Defense Team Announced
Harden has been out since game 1 with a hamstring injury. Kyrie just went down with an ankle injury in the second quarter of last night’s game. Now the series is tied 2-2 and it looks as if it’ll be KD and Blake Griffin vs. the Bucks. If both Kyrie and Harden are out for… Read More Kyrie’s Injury Changes Everything
They did it the hard way, that’s for sure. But they needed this win badly and they got it. That’s all that matters. The Bucks could’ve put this game away early when they were up 30-9, but they let the Nets climb back into it in the second quarter. I mean the Bucks started this… Read More Bucks Grind Out Game 3 Win, Get Back in the Series
