NBA Trade Deadline Analysis
Posted on 16 Mar 2012 by Warren Shaw.
The NBA trade deadline came and went in the same anti-climatic fashion that it always does except if your an Orlando or Portland fan, Moves were made but it always amazes me how much is rumored to happen that never materializes. Then there are the sneak trades that nobody sees coming. Inevitably things come up and when GM's see a way to improve, save a dollar, or gather picks they will usuall...

Circus leaves town…Howard commits to Magic
Posted on 15 Mar 2012 by Warren Shaw.
Nobody could have predicted the roller coaster the last 9 months would have been for Dwight Howard and the Orlando Magic. Nobody. After months of back and forth with the last few days being the most strenuous, the Magic get to keep their franchise player. Howard opted in to the remaining year of his contract by signing the waiver of his early termination option and now will remain with the Magi...

Manu Ginobili Returns as Spurs Win 7th Straight; Duncan Snubbed of All-Star Game
Posted on 12 Feb 2012 by Chelsea Curto.
Finally. It seems that the San Antonio Spurs are finally clicking when playing on the road. Last night they traveled to New Jersey to take on the lowly Nets, with Manu Ginobili suited up to play. After starting the season with an abysmal record on the road, the Spurs are inching closer to being above .500 when away from Texas. Entering into the game the Spurs had won six straight, all without s...

Orlando Magic Season Preview
Posted on 24 Dec 2011 by Warren Shaw.
Shrouded in a cloud of uncertainty the Orlando Magic enter the season trying to make one last effort to convince their star, Dwight Howard, that there is no place like home. Howard has been a pendulum of inconsistency in his demeanor towards possibly returning but the one constant has been his request to be on a championship team. That championship team could be in Orlando, Dallas, Los Angeles,...

Rock and a Hard Place
Posted on 14 Dec 2011 by Warren Shaw.
Does Dwight Howard want to stay in Orlando? As has been documented many times the answer to that question depends on what day the question is asked. Today the answer can be interrupted as “Um, well kinda”. That doesn't leave the Magic front office with much to go on. They have to know that the team they have assembled is not a championship team as Howard has requested. Is the...

Assessing Draft Needs: The Atlantic Division
Posted on 3 Jun 2011 by Warren Shaw.
Over the next couple weeks I will break down the draft needs of each team in the league grouped by their division in the NBA. I will not pretend to know who each team is targeting as most of that is all speculation anyway. Most teams have glaring needs but may not have the picks or money to fix everything right away. Keep in mind this year's crop of recruits is considered to be weaker than most...

Frye hits another game-winner
Posted on 1 Mar 2011 by Brad Botkin.
On Sunday, Channing Frye propelled the Suns over the Indiana Pacers with a toe-on-the-line, contested jumper as time expired. On Monday, he did it again. This time it came with 6.6 seconds left in overtime to give Phoenix a 104-103 win against the New Jersey Nets. It was the Suns' fourth consecutive win to start the second half, and considering the log jam at the bottom of the Western Conferenc...

First Sloan, Now Williams
Posted on 23 Feb 2011 by Wilson Tarpeh Jr..
Deron Williams is going to be traded, so I doubt if he will be available to play tonight. Williams has been acquired by the New Jersey Nets for Devin Harris, Derrick Favors, and 2 First Round Picks. I found this out about 20 minutes ago on twitter before some other media outlets made it known as well, it should be a done deal in a couple of hours. I am still in shock that the Utah Jazz have los...

Knicks/ Nets- 5 Things
Posted on 12 Feb 2011 by Jordan Lauterbach.
Who needs an all – star? Of course, the sarcasm flowing through my fingers is palpable. There may be three or four teams that the Knicks would have beaten Saturday. The New Jersey Nets are one of those teams. Here are five things from the Knicks 105-95 win over the Nets. 1. From downtown! – The Knicks got hot from behind the arc at the exact right time – twice. They started out the game...

Warriors Happy And Healthy After Beating Nets
Posted on 17 Jan 2011 by Scott Johnston.
When the season started, many who looked at the Warriors schedule said, “If we can just get to the New Year in decent shape, maybe we’ll be Okay.” Maybe they will. The Warriors hosted the dismal New Jersey Nets on Monday afternoon and led for the final 46 minutes of the game, winning 109-100 behind a balanced attack that showed five players in double figures led once again by Monta Ellis....

Wizards Dominate Nets From Tip, Win 97-77
Posted on 7 Jan 2011 by Robert Bode.
It hasn't happened often this year, but the Washington Wizards were dominant in a 20 point win over the Nets Friday night. The Wiz took control from the outset, racing out to an 18-to-3 lead after some sharp shooting from beyond the arc by Rashard Lewis and a suffocating defense. Washington finished the first quarter with a 30-to-13 lead, as Lewis scored 11 of his 16 points in the first, while ...

Knicks handle Nets; Quiet Prokhorov
Posted on 30 Nov 2010 by Justin Sammartano.
Final Score: NY Knicks (10-9): 111 NJ Nets(6-12): 100 Tonight the Knicks took on the Nets at the Garden for the first of four meetings this season. The game close through the first half and into the third quarter until Devon Harris was knocked down by his own teammate, Kris Humphries and was forced to leave the game with an injury. From there it was all downhill for the Nets. Although th...
