The Los Angeles Lakers are currently buried in a 14 of 16 home stretch and their next three games are tantalizing. The Lake Show’s next potential scalp is the much improved and co-division leading Phoenix Suns. A three day rest should enable Andrew Bynum to return and possibly Pau Gasol, …
The Denver Nuggets have been widely touted as a team that will not perform at the same standard as last season. Plenty of media outlets have said this including ESPN in general, Chad Ford, John Hollinger and J.A. Adande. In my pre-season predictions I was prepared to agree with them, …
There’s 9 games on the books today in the NBA and I’m in the mood for some predictions. So here’s my take on the games for November 3rd. Now you might raise your eyebrows at a couple of my suggestions, but I’ll explain my reasons as we go.
Washington @ Cleveland: There’s a …
I think I speak for the majority of Basketball fans when I say the following:
Get well soon Dikembe.
“Mount” Mutombo is still struggling through rehab on his knee after sustaining a career-ending ruptured tendon in April this year. He was quoted recently on a Houston radio show as saying;

The common theory amongst most NBA fans is that pre-season doesn’t really mean anything to the superstars. Carmello Anthony laid the smackdown on that theory tonight posting 45 points on 14-19 from the field and 16-17 from the charity stripe in a win over the Pacers. It’s not often you …

The Lakers needed 7 games to beat a Houston team without it’s two best players (totally nearly 50 million in yearly salary), and they were starting a 6′6″ centre! That’s shameful. Even Denver, if they had any playoff experience at all would have beaten the Lakers. Talk about a charmed …
Over the past 18 years, I’ve been obsessed with Basketball and most notably the NBA. I was lucky enough to find the NBA just as Michael Jordan was turning it into his own personal showcase. The trading cards, posters, magazines and video games were all my life revolved around.

It’s the only word to describe the Lakers performance tonight. A simply devastating display that started with too many turnovers but then blossomed into beautiful team Basketball that had Denver fans heading home early.
Pau Gasol got what he asked for with more touches inside, and he made the right move nearly …
