The 2012 NBA Playoffs are really heating up and here’s some of the developing storylines to watch as the second round unfolds.
The Indiana Pacers are leading the Miami Heat 2-1 and will be hosting them in Game 4 on Sunday afternoon.
The Heat appear to be in serious trouble in my opinion. Chris Bosh is out injured and Dwyane Wade̵ [...]
The first round of the 2012 NBA Playoffs is almost complete with a good chance of finishing up tomorrow night. The San Antonio Spurs and Oklahoma City Thunder have already advanced with convincing sweeps and are now kicking back, relaxing an.
All six of the remaining first round matchups are being led 3-1 and ready to be closed out. The only [...]
I have to give the Brooklyn Nets credit for unveiling their new logos and color scheme because I think they hit a home run. The logos are going to be a big hit and I predict them to become quite popular among the team’s fans as well as the hip-hop crowd worldwide.
It reminds me of the Chicago White Sox when they modernized their color [...]
The Chicago Bulls won their first game of the 2012 NBA Playoffs over the Philadelphia 76ers 103-91, but it came with a heavy price. The #1 seed in the Eastern Conference watched in horror as team leader Derrick Rose laid on the floor clutching his knee with a little over a minute left in the game.
It’s been confirmed that Rose blew out [...]

I think the Oklahoma Thunder and Dall [...]

The Washington Wizards are on a roll here late in the season and their 101-73 blowout of the Charlotte Bobcats makes it four straight wins. It’s the first time in over five years for the Wizards to have a four game winning streak.
John Wall had a very nice game with 16 points and 14 assists, Nene scored 18 points and rookie Jan Vesely [...]
The Miami Heat’s LeBron James and the Utah Jazz’s Al Jefferson today were named the Eastern and Western Conference Players of the Week, respectively, for games played Monday, April 16, through Sunday, April 22.
James helped Miami to a 4-1 week, averaging 31.0 points on 58 percent shooting, while grabbing 7.5 rebounds and dishing [...]
What happened to World Peace? What on earth would make this guy throw an elbow to the back of an opponents head like he did to James Harden? The elbow sure does look intentional to me when you see it on video, but World Peace is insisting it wasn’t.
The NBA will be reviewing the incident and I expect a lengthy suspension will be coming [...]
The Washington Wizards are trying to finish this very disappointing season on a positive note. They have actually played pretty well recently, but is their recent play just fools gold or have they started to turn the corner?
One thing I’ve learned as a lifelong Washington Bullets/Wizards fan is that nothing is ever what it seems with t [...]
Washington Wizards President Ernie Grunfeld announced today that team has signed guard Morris Almond and waived Roger Mason Jr.
Almond has spent the past four seasons in the NBA D-League, where he has averaged 24.5 points, 4.8 rebounds and shot .495 from the field in 119 career games (112 starts). He has played with the Utah Flash (2007-09), [...]
The Washington Wizards will be tipping off at the Toronto Raptors in less than an hour and looking to win the season series. The Wizards are 2-1 against the Raptors so far this season, but have lost their last four trips to Air Canada Center.
It’s been a tough year for both teams, but the Wizards have shown signs of life since the trad [...]
The Washington Wizards blew another double-digit lead and allowed the Atlanta Hawks to escape Verizon Center with a 95-92 win. The Wizards led the Hawks by as many as 16 points and should have won this game, but mental mistakes continue to do them in.
The Wizards are now 1-2 since the trade for Nene and should be a perfect 3-0, but they cont [...]
