That was a thrilling first round. We saw a #8 seed upset a #1 for the second year in a row, New York briefly stopped their historic playoff losing streak and a pair of Game 7s matching up with two sweeps out West. That will be sure to make a big difference in the next [...]

The playoffs are upon us, but that doesn’t mean anyone can afford to rest any players. Derrick Rose is already out for the rest of the season with a torn ACL, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see him miss at least a vast majority of next regular season as well. The Bulls have done [...]

The Finals are over, and the Mavericks won their first ever NBA Finals. LeBron James still hasn’t won one, much to the delight of Cleveland. They won in Miami twice, which the Heat really couldn’t come together in order to stop. Game 6 was the dagger in the heart of Miami that handed Dirk Nowitzki [...]

The NBA Finals are here, and even though the Celtics aren’t in it, it’ll be fun to watch.

Opposing them are Cuban’s Crew, the Dallas Mavericks, hungry [...]

That was a pretty quick third round, considering how hard many of the teams had to work to get there. You have the Mavericks making quick work of a hungry Thunder team, then you have the top seeded Bulls dropping to the Big Three of Miami. Now, we have a match-up between Miami’s destructive lineup [...]

This time around, there’s a lot more dissension [...]

It was a heck of a round, and it featured the 2011 NBA Playoffs’ first Game 7, just hours before the next round begins. LeBron James finally exorcised his post-season Celtics demons. Chicago’s huge season has them on a collision course with said James. The Thunder took care of business, albeit in longer fashion than [...]

What a first round. A #8 upset a #1 for just the fourth time ever, and second since the first round expanded to best 4-of-7. Atlanta upset Orlando as well, and Boston pulled off the only sweep of the round. Boston got the rest, while the upstart Grizzlies have to go right back into action [...]

With the season over, it’s time to present the results of the 2010-2011 NBA Pick ‘Em. The East was easier to pick, as has been the case in recent memory; all three division winners were unanimously chosen. The middle of the pack was also pretty easy. The West was a different story.

Celtics 17: Lakers 16. The banner count is still in Boston’s favor, but the Lakers are the first champions to repeat since … wait for it … the Lakers, from 2000 to 2002. At least the Lakers have been swept in the Finals three times, once to the Celtics. And the Celtics are now 4-1 [...]
