Jennings Explodes For 55, Bucks Edge Warriors 129-125

Usually, rookies don’t go on scoring binges (unless your name is Kareem Abdul-Jabbar) and especially if you’re a rookie on the Milwaukee Bucks. The dateline was Saturday at the Bradley Center and the two teams were the Milwaukee Bucks and Golden State Warriors; both teams have a up-and-coming rookie, Stephen Curry for Golden State and [...]

Balanced Scoring Helps Bulls Beat 76ers 94-88

The Chicago Bulls and Philadelphia 76ers, two teams with upside. Yet during Saturday night’s game between these two teams, one would have mistaken them for the New Jersey Nets and New York Knicks as neither team shot very well (Chicago at 44.9% while Philadelphia shot 42%). Fortunately for the Bulls, they used a team effort [...]

Source: Tinsley To Sign With Grizzlies

Who would’ve thought that two boneheaded decisions could be made in one week, with the first being the New Orleans Hornets canning coach Byron Scott? Well folks, it did indeed happen as according to Mitch Lawrence of the New York Daily News, the Memphis Grizzlies, as verified by NBA sources, have signed former Indiana Pacer guard [...]

Hornets Lose CP-3 For Couple Weeks

The New Orleans Hornets have to be the most unlucky team going on in the NBA right now. They’re 3-6, which typically would not sound the fire alarms, considering the team they currently have in place. But then again, their owner is George Shinn, who I will not accuse of being a hands-off type of [...]

Kings Win 4th Straight, Defuse Rockets 109-100

An interesting team the Sacramento Kings is. They’re relatively young, rather green and have a new coach in Paul Westphal. Yet here they are, prior to their game against the Houston Rockets on Friday night, right at the .500 mark. Rather heady territory  for a team with low expectations. One of the reasons for their [...]

Knicks Drop Sixth Straight, Warriors Prevail 121-107

I think I would be stating the obvious when I say that the New York Knicks are easily the worst team in the league right now; their -9.7  point differential seems to illustrate that point in spades. Nonetheless, the Knicks had a game to play on Friday, hosting the Golden State Warriors at Madison Square Garden, [...]

Bryant, Bynum Helps Lakers Race Past Suns 121-102

The Phoenix Suns are one of the higher scoring teams in the NBA as are the Los Angeles Lakers; having said that, you just know when these two teams get together, there is scoring aplenty and defense is an afterthought. Thursday’s game between the Lakers and Suns would prove to be no different – for [...]

Do Knicks Have A Plan B For 2010 Free Agency?

I think it is common knowledge that the New York Knicks are in a cash-rich position to seduce the upper-crust NBA free agents this coming summer, with LeBron James and Dwyane Wade within full view of team management. Whether the Knicks can actually afford two superstars is debatable, but that option is out there, depending [...]
