Roy Halladay Avoids Stretch of Infamy for the Philadelphia Phillies
Posted on 20 May 2011 by Adrian Fedkiw.
Before Roy Halladay’s first pitch of the game against Texas on Friday, Chris Wheeler summed it up perfectly; “He’s (Roy Halladay) pitched two straight complete game losses, that’s gotta stop.” The last pitcher to have three straight complete games without a win, Steve Carlton in 1973 The lineup has been in a slump, but the starting pitching has done its job. The Phillies entered ...

Sixers Continue to Fade Down Stretch as Comeback Vs Knicks Falls Short
Posted on 6 Apr 2011 by Bennett Snyder.
It would have been the best comeback of the year and in one of the most important games of the year. Being down the whole game, the Sixers energy level in the 4th quarter was insane. After making an incredible comeback to actually go up by a point thanks to Elton Brand but especially Thaddeus Young, the Sixers then had a wide open 3 to go up for. After Jodie Meeks' three rattled in and out, Ton...

Butler Hopes Third Time Is the Charm Against Gators
Posted on 26 Mar 2011 by Patrick Greissing.
The Butler Bulldogs and Florida Gators have battled in the NCAA Tournament two times since in the last 11 years. The first came in 2000, when Mike Miller hit a runner in the lane at the buzzer to give the Gators a victory. The second time game during the Gators title run in 2007, as the Bulldogs gave them their toughest test of the tournament but just didn’t have enough down the stretch. Now ...

Ouch
Posted on 22 Mar 2011 by John Morgo.
I know I'm technically supposed to wait until the game is over before filing, but what I'm watching on TNT is just nasty. The Hawks are down by 20, 59-39 in the closing stages of the first half. Now, a few weeks, the Hawks stromed from behind to win a close game against the Bulls (I believe it was at the start of this six game home stand), but now they dug themselves a deeper hole. To be fair, ...

Mavs Too Much for 76ers Down The Stretch
Posted on 1 Mar 2011 by Bennett Snyder.
The same day Doug Collins was announced as the Eastern Conference Coach of the Month, I thought it was his worst game coaching. All of that combined with the Sixers easy misses in the 4th quarter and the veteran play by the Mavs led to a tough home loss. These kind of losses hurt but they are forgivable because the Mavs are such a good team. However, the Sixers could have easily won this game j...

Aldridge Onslaught Helps Blazers Hold off Bulls
Posted on 8 Feb 2011 by Brandon Marcus.
LaMarcus Aldridge may have been left off the Western Conference all star team, but he declared emphatically Monday night that he is most certainly an All Star. Aldridge dominated the Bulls for a career high 42 points, out-dueling dynamo Derrick Rose to lead the Blazers to a109-103 victory over Chicago. In what has become a recurring story this season for Portland, Aldridge turned in another bri...

A Tale of Two Half’s
Posted on 27 Jan 2011 by Jeff Burke.
The Aztecs have relied on coming out strong in the second half of their games many times this year, to either come from behind and win or put teams away down the stretch with a huge second half run. This was not the case for the number four ranked Aztecs yesterday. In the biggest game of the year, when they needed it the most and after a strong performance in the first half the boys fai...

Knicks/ Wizards- 5 Things
Posted on 11 Dec 2010 by Jordan Lauterbach.
It was a fitting way to end the most recent stretch of games. The Knicks closed out the “easy portion” (well, for now) of the schedule with a tidy 101 – 95 win over the Wizards on Friday night. It was the end of the cake walk and the beginning of “the test,” but more on that later in the Knick/Wizards edition of the 5 things…. 1. 30+ again for STAT – I really hate that nickname,...
