Phoenix Suns 136, Toronto Raptors 123 Perimeter defense? Non-existent. Transition defense? MIA. Rotational defense? Zilch. Closing out shooters? Rarely. Result? 136 points allowed. But at least the fans got their pizza. There isn’t a team in the NBA that has had success trying to out-gun the Suns, so why Phoenix East thought that playing pedantic…
Break out the Red Bull and cocaine smoothies, the Happy Happy Fun Time American Speed Show is in town! Sooooo…the Raps haven’t beaten Phoenix since Feb. 10, 2004. To put that in perspective, Chris Andersen was still in the NBA, we were winning the war on terror, and Britney Spears was still a virgin. …
If that’s a typical Charlotte game, then the Bobcat Bet is doomed. 33% from the field? Felton, Richardson, and Wallace going 7-38 (including Felton’s puketastic 0-8)? Those names might as well be Robinson, Marbury, and Crawford, ’cause that’s Knicks-level futility. Sam Vincent’s go-to play is even more pathetic than Sam Mitchell’s: The isolation jumpshot led…
Charlotte Bobcats 79, Toronto Raptors 98 Darrick Martin just gave us another small little reason to hate him. He did the “professional” thing and left the score frozen at 98 when the fans were chanting “Pizza, Pizza” louder than they were “Let’s go Raptors” all evening. The pizza situation was the only one in question…

In my regular seats for tonight’s game. After making the Bobcat Bet, I got tickets to both games this year. That being said – there’s no conflict. Toronto needs to win this game. Charlotte’s dropped five in a row (much to my chagrin), so adding one more to help my hometown squad is fine by me.…
Forgive me tonight, I’m giddy. By the end of this read, you will be too. I found my favorite website of all time (keep reading! It’s worth it!) because of this game, and that title should read 9-8.5. We dominated half of those 48. But in a late game critical possession, the ball does not…
One of the perks of grinding it out in the office working 60-hour weeks is that sometimes your boss hands you courtside seats. I wouldn’t know, ‘cause I’m a “less is more” type of guy, but thanks to my buddy Carps’ relentless corporate droning, I got to peep the Cavs courtside. Not ‘Mini Me’ courtside,…
