NBA.com has taken a page out of ESPN (pretty much copied them) and started to rank teams on a weekly basis – also known as the NBA Power Rankings. This week sees NBA.com and ESPN.com rank both their top five the exact same: Phoenix San Antonio Utah Dallas Detroit No surprises or major arguments against…
TJ Ford brought back memories of Vince Carter in LA with a buzzer beating jumper to down the Clippers 98-96. With 15 seconds left and the score tied, Sam Mitchell called the best play: nothing. Just let TJ go one-on-one. Quentin Ross stumbled and the rest is history. Raps started this one off on positive…
If anybody expected the Raps to pull this one though, they were out of their mind. Even Bryan Colangelo agrees. An expected loss at the hands of the Suns saw a surprisingly competitive 3/4 of the first quarter which is when Phoenix decided to run up and down the floor and turn the game around.…
Can you believe that a 10-14 team is tops in the Atlantic? That is the case as the Raps beat the Warriors 120-115 at the ACC in another well-deserved team win. Much like the Nets game, six players ended up in double figures with Morris Peterson leading the way with 23. Recapping the game is…
Raptors/Nets today and the Raps manage to pull of another sweet win, 90-78 at the ACC with Vince having a miserable game and fans chanting “Carter Sucks” pretty loudly and effectively in the fourth quarter. Total team win with six players in double figures. But lets leave that on the side for a few minutes.…
Moment of truth from the Raptors vs. Magic game from Orlando where the Raps surprisingly pulled off a pretty sweet victory. Chuck “organizational mouthpiece” Swirsky was busy describing how great it was that Dwight Howard wished in 8th grade that he would win a state championship and then be selected #1 overall in the NBA…
It’s hard to believe that Morris Peterson has already been in the league for six seasons. That’s six long seasons of NBA service marked by varying degrees of promise and glimpses of being better than average. As a rookie the best thing about him used to be that he could move without the ball and…
i’m not thrilled with tj ford. i saw him play in college alot. he is incredibly quick and can push the ball like crazy. offensively, he has a weak jumper. he’s an average nba point. but villanueva was expendable with bargnani there because they pretty much play the same postion.
Watch any basketball broadcast on ABC, TNT or ESPN and you can’t escape watching camera angles that make you wonder, “WTF was that for?” You know the ones I’m talking about. The fat 50 year old who finally decides to get up from his seat and pump his fist like he’s the one who hit…
hey dude. i heard the raptors got the #1 pick. bad news is this is the worst draft i have ever seen. they either got to get adam morrison, who will be solid and complement bosh, or maybe there is a european guy out there i havent seen. otherwise trade down. but lamarcus aldridge would…
Making some picks today, let’s see how we do. Lines are from sportingbet.com. Boston @ Philly – Take Philly paying 1.50 I’m not an insider but I think Philly hates Boston and won’t allow a home setback. Dallas @ San Antonio – Take the over: Boundary at 186.5 and paying 1.909 This is not a…
Raymond Felton has just hit a dagger three pointer to put the Bobcats up five with 31 seconds left.
