Ricky Rubio With The Play Of The Nigh...
Ricky Rubio provided the play of the game in the Rising Stars Challenge when he dribbled through DeMarcus Cousins’ legs and then tossed an alley-oop to Blake Griffin for a big dunk.
Mr. Cousins would get the last laugh as his team went on to win the game 146-133. Rookie Kyrie Irving was on fire going 8 for 8 from downtown and scoring a [...]
Jeremy Lin Does It Again With A Big T...
This kid Jeremy Lin has made a phenomenal impact with the New York Knicks the last couple of weeks. He appears to have saved the Knicks season and head coach Mike D’Antoni’s job at the same time! That was a huge shot in a pressure situation last night to win the game over a stunned Toronto Raptors team.
The Knicks looked to be in [...]

After hearing the Lakers were doing this I couldn’t help bu [...]

The Magic And Ref’s Are Too Muc...
The Washington Wizards got screwed by the ref’s last night in their 109-103 loss to the Orlando Magic. Some those calls were so bad I started wondering if Tim Donaghy was back on the floor in disguise and the fix was in.
I try not to get on here and bash the ref’s because I know mistakes can happen. There will be a bad call or tw [...]
Blake Griffin Posterizes Kendrick Per...
This is a very powerful dunk by Blake Griffin over Kendrick Perkins from last night’s Los Angeles Clippers 112-100 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Clippers are now 12-6 on the season and look to be gelling as a team.
I think Perkins should be benched because that was a very weak and halfhearted attempt to deny Griffin the dunk. [...]
