Posted on 23 Oct 2012 by Warren Shaw.
With little in the category of drama, the Southeast Division is an open and shut case regarding the first place winner. The Miami Heat are the defending champions which would give them the edge anyway but they have watched two division foes become significantly weaker in Atlanta and Orlando. With Joe Johnson (formerly of the Hawks) and Dwight Howard (formerly of the Magic) out of the division, ...

RUMBLE IN OBAMA’S BACKYARD
Posted on 31 Mar 2011 by Sean Eckhardt.
There was a basketball game scheduled for Wednesday night in Washington DC. The teams were supposed to be the Miami Heat and the Washington Wizards, but it appeared that the Florida Panthers and Washington Capitals took their place. From the beginning, there were elbows, hip checks, flailing bodies, and even a punch or two. The Wizards were playing like the Capitals, or maybe the...

Posted on 10 Mar 2011 by Michael Waterloo.
After their loss to Connecticut today, we are starting to hear the usual talk about Pitt choking in the NCAA tournament and their inability to get to the Final Four. While the loss today was a downer, as it is their third consecutive year losing their first game in the Big East tournament, it isn’t reason to think Pitt is going to fail in the NCAA tournament. With, in my opinion, the dee...

Fallout from Kirk Hinrich Trade and John Wall’s Honesty
Posted on 25 Feb 2011 by Robert Bode.
There is no reason for me to break down the embarrassing 117-94 loss to the 76ers on Wednesday night, but the events before and after that debacle in Philly are fascinating. First, Ernie Grunfeld found a way to get a 2011 first round pick from the Atlanta Hawks for Kirk Hinrich and Hilton Armstrong. Sure, it is frustrating that Mike Bibby is demanding a buy-out instead of being a potential...
