Pistons burn the Heat
See what I did there? I’m hoping a bit of flash video will distract you from the fact I’ve been derelict in my blogging duties today. In any case, by now you know the Pistons won 91-80 (if you missed it, you can get a feeling for how things went down by checking out the comments…

Recap: GSoM Night II behind the scenes!
Attending GSoM Night/Warrior home opener was like attending prom, just without all the pressures of getting to second base (or further for those who like it nasty). Actually, it was probably better than prom since you were essentially going to with like 880 more folks all wearing the same…

Durant heating up
In his first regular season home game rookie Kevin Durant has been as good as advertised, scoring 18 points on 7-for-14 shooting. The up-tempo game seems to be helping Durant, as he is getting out in the open floor more, making it easier for him to get shots close to the basket. After watching…
