YAYsports! NBA

There’s not much to say about the Cavaliers on this day, save for their impending match-up with a nearly fully-armed and operational Milwaukee Bucks squad, so we have little choice but to touch on last night’s Pistons-Nuggets game.
(This is partially to get FIOS and Boney off the very top of the page. There have […]

With the limited number of games they’ve yet to play together, yesterday everyone in Denver was still wondering how this Iverson/Melo pairing is going to really work out.
What could’ve helped move the needle over toward “great!” would’ve been a game night the last against the Celtics or maybe even the Sonics - one of the […]

While one reason for this blog’s existence is all about keeping you up to date on things like Melo and Josh Howard being named to the All-Star team, another reason, as you’ve probably gathered, is to make fun of Europe.
For example, here’s a news clip about the death of Anna Nicole Smith from Germany. We […]

The great thing about this post is going to be how it comes out all blazing like it’s a commentary on Melo’s first career triple-double, when really it’s never mentioned again after this.
You see, this post is about the Suns, although the Denver team is the springboard, since they’re the team PHX beat last […]

If Utah All-Star forward Carlos Boozer (and his wife) have anything to say about it, that “Melo and Josh Howard are All-Stars” thing isn’t going down.
Despite doctors saying he’s down for 4-5 weeks, Booz is claiming he might be able to return in time to play in Vegas.
“I’m hoping to (play). Obviously I won’t know […]

They unveiled the All-Star benches last night on TNT, and while we’d love to label “biggest controversey” as two NJ Nets on the East roster (Kidd/Carter), there’s a bigger one that everyone will be talking about in the next few days, probably starting about 12 hours ago.
The NBA’s leading scorer, DEN’s Carmelo Anthony, was not […]

Tonight’s the night - Melo is unsuspended and ready to gear up against the Memphis Grizzles.
The Nuggets have certainly gone through their share of changes in the 15 games he’s been out - Earl Boykins is in MIL now, and of course Allen Iverson is in Denver.
As for how Melo is feeling about his return, […]

Continuing our December recap, wherein we somehow make up for 30 whole days away in one.

Yeah, right up there with Scoop Jackson’s infamous Roundie column and the NY-DEN fight, the whole Allen Iverson thing was the biggest thing to make us go “oh man, why did this have to happen now…” in December.
Daily updates on […]

For those unaware - we’re recapping December, which we used to not blog.
We were actually watching this game, and turned it off because of a combo of the game being a blow-out and the Nuggets’ black uniforms taking us someplace we didn’t want to go.
That’s a personal story for another time, so let’s focus on […]

There are three teams in the NBA without wins yet, and they’re all gonna go for it tonight.
Each of them need a win in a bad way for their own reasons. In order, it’s for a kick-start, for stability, and for a small sense of hope.
So…who do ya like - the struggling Mavs at […]
