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...

He's given scouts a much larger sample size to evaluate from, showing a gradual increase in production from the start of his freshma...

Thunder Push Jazz Further Away From Playoffs
Posted on 24 Mar 2011 by Wilson Tarpeh Jr..
The Oklahoma City Thunder had just come off an EMBARASSING loss to the Toronto Raptors, the Raptors beat them by double-digits I believe. Well the Thunder flexed their muscles late on the Utah Jazz to win 106-94. This game was a perfect example as to why you MUST have an “elite” point guard in this league, Utah was without Devin Harris who sat out with a strained right hamstring. So...

Jazz Rally To Win At Buzzer
Posted on 9 Mar 2011 by Wilson Tarpeh Jr..
The Utah Jazz got a bit of their rally magic back from earlier in the season, this time they went down 14 and rallied for the win. To make it even more exciting was that the rally wasn't complete until the buzzer sounded. The Jazz had come back and tied the game at 94, Devin Harris(23 points) let the clock tick down so the Jazz would have the last shot, he drove to the basket to attempt a lay...

Finally! On Saturday night the Miami Heat got what they paid for. No, I'm not talking about the big three, Miami thrice, or tres grande. For the first time this season, Mike Miller showed up and showed up big. On a night when the Heat would be without both Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, the team was looking for someone to contribute. The good news is that they got a few guys to ...

Big games for the Spurs
Posted on 18 Jan 2011 by Jon Lopez.
On my way up to my physical therapist's office, I look across the street at the Spurs practice facility and I wonder if coach POP is making sure the Spurs aren't looking past Toronto at New York. Toronto is another young athletic team that can pose match up problems for the Spurs. Yeah the Knicks game is more important and they shouldn't have to many problems with the Raptors. With next two ho...

Knicks vs Raptors – 5 things
Posted on 9 Dec 2010 by Jordan Lauterbach.
The word clicked is thrown around often in sports. Sometimes, like all cliché’s, it’s way overused. But there is no better a descriptive to use about this Knick team then “clicked.” Four weeks ago, we were writing about how stilted and confused some members of this team looked in the D’Antoni offense. Now, that’s as far from the truth as possible. This team has gelled like no team ...
