Apparently, nobody really wants that eighth seed in the Western Conference.

The eighth place Blazers are just 6-4 in that stretch, but appear to have ... Continue Reading

Is Amare Stoundemire Preventing Himself From Being Dealt To Cleveland?

Posted By Kevin Roberts On Monday, February 15th 2010. Under Basketball Tags: Cleveland, Cleveland Cavaliers, LeBron James, Phoenix Suns, Shaquille O'Neal

After speculation over the past two weeks that the Cleveland Cavaliers have shown major interest in Amare Stoudemire, could the biggest road-block be Stoudemire, himself? It's looking that way. The original plan coming from Cleveland (rumored, anyways), is that adding either Stoudemire or Washington's Antawn Jamison would give them another athletic ... Continue Reading

The NBA announced its starters for the 2010 All-Star game Thursday night on TNT. To no surprise, the fans voted the typical no-brainers into the starting line-ups. LeBron James edged past Kobe Bryant as the leading vote getter. Both amassed over 2.5 million votes from the fans. James and Bryant will ... Continue Reading

2009-10 NBA Power Rankings (Jan. 13th): Cavaliers Narrowly Top Team

Posted By Kevin Roberts On Thursday, January 14th 2010. Under Basketball Tags: Atlanta Hawks, Boston Celtics, Chicago Bulls, Cleveland Cavaliers, Dallas Mavericks, Detroit Pistons, LeBron James, Los Angeles Clippers, Los Angeles Lakers, Memphis Grizzlies, Milwaukee Bucks, NBA, NBA Power Rankings, Orlando Magic, Philadelphia 76ers, Phoenix Suns, San Antonio Spurs

If you're looking for regular Power Rankings that tell you the Lakers are tops just because they were last year's champions, or that the Hawks are a scary team simply because they're 3-0 against Boston, this isn't the rankings for you.

Under Basketball Tags: Atlanta Hawks, Boston Celtics, Charlotte Bobcats, Chicago Bulls, Cleveland Cavaliers, Dallas Mavericks, Denver Nuggets, Detroit Pistons, Houston Rockets, Los Angeles Lakers, Miami Heat, NBA, Oklahoma City Thunder, Orlando Magic, Phoenix Suns, Portland Trail Blazers, San Antonio Spurs

The 2009/10 NBA season is in full swing, and it's been a very interesting first few weeks thus far. As expected, last year's NBA finalists have gotten off to fast starts, and so have several other teams, but there have been a few surprises on both ends of the ... Continue Reading

Where will Allen Iverson land?

Posted By Kevin Roberts On Saturday, July 4th 2009. Under Basketball Tags: Allen Iverson, Charlotte Bobcats, Chicago Bulls, Larry Brown, Memphis Grizzlies, Miami Heat, Milwauke Bucks, NBA, New York Knicks, Phoenix Suns

(Above: Can he still be "the guy" for someone?) Let's face it, at 34, Allen Iverson's selfish antics aren't as cute as they used to be. And no, we're not talking about "practice". Iverson, while still quick and scrappy, is on the decline. This is the stage of a player's career where they ... Continue Reading
