Recap: Warriors 140, Kings 132 - Giving Them The Business.

Now THAT'S what I'm talking about. Tonight the Warriors came out and looked like the team that we all know that they can be. They faced a situation where they knew what needed to be done against a team that they knew they could do it to, and what did they do? They gave them the business. …

Looking at tie-breakers

With the Pistons locked into the No. 2 seed, it’s clear that the only thing left to play for is guaranteeing home court advantage should they advance to the NBA Finals. This obviously entails finishing with a better record than any team in the West, which, for the moment, means the Pistons…

RECAP: Warriors 122, Clippers 116 - Talkin' all that Jazz

Dunleavy: No f*^&$&% way the Warriors can still be in the playoff hunt! Response: Talk to the hand cause the ear's not listening! Last night was monumental. Not only did Denver lose, badly, bringing our Warriors into a temporary tie for the final playoff spot, Patrick O' Bryant…

Chris McCosky of the Detroit News offers some final thoughts on the Tuesday’s All-Time Team ceremony in his blog, including a not-so-flattering depiction of John Salley: This guy has become an insufferable jerk. I am not kidding. The guy shouldn’t even have been on the all-time team, in…

Pistons and Raptors in a playoff preview

I love YouTube just because you can find random videos like this that make it look like the 2002 playoff series between the Pistons and Raptors was the second coming of the 1980’s Pistons vs. Celtics. The way things are looking right now, the Pistons and Raptors may renew that playoff…

The Kings beat the Hornets

That might have been the most disappointing performance of the season by the Hornets. Looking to bounce back from their loss to the Lakers on Friday, they rolled in to Sacramento to face a lottery-bound Kings team missing two starters. You'd think we'd win such a game even if Chris Paul was…
