How do the Lakers look so far?
To say I don’t know where to begin is about the best opening I can come up with. While stating the last few weeks have brought on a myriad of emotions may be a tad overdramatic, it’s really the only way possible to describe the start of the offseason. From the time it was made [...]

2010-11 NBA Playoffs Recap, Day 13: Eliminations
Three teams were eliminated last night, but there are still more questions then there are answers. Is Atlanta a fluke? Can Dirk out-shoot the Lakers? How’s Kobe’s ankle? Does Dwight Howard stay in Orlando? That’s actually a good place to start. Orlando Magic 81 – Atlanta Hawks 84 It’s kind of pathetic that the Orlando [...]

Last night was, in a way, disappointing. Maybe I’m a bit spoiled from the incredible action the playoffs has given us already?

2010-11 NBA Playoffs Recap: Day 10, Where The Spurs Look Spent.
San Antonio Spurs 86 – Memphis Grizzlies 104 Lionel Hollins tanking at the end of the season so the Grizzlies can drop down to the 8th seed and play a 61-win team now looks borderline genius. Memphis beat San Antonio to take a 3-1 series lead. Only person I know that called the Memphis upset was Zach [...]
2010-11 NBA Playoffs Recap: Day 9, Where Chris Paul is a Point God.

(Translation: L.A.Z.Y.) But here I am and here we are, just past the halfway point in more of the first round match-ups and [...]
