YAYsports! NBA

Well, we watched the entire festival of opening night, and it was somewhat comforting to have the NBA back.
We still love the game, and remain open to allowing the league abuse us once again. Tonight’s Cavs-Mavs matchup will be quite the telling experience.
Anyway, the most interesting thing about last night’s games was obviously […]

We apologize for our last post turning into a quasi-PSA against the filthy habit of cigarette smoking, but our baseline reaction to Adam Morrison’s revolting life choice left us with no other recourse.
As such, we shall take this post in an altogether different direction, ie Europe.
With the new-look Celtics and other teams parading around […]

At some point during the Isiah Thomas sexual harassment trial, they’re going to have the beginning of the NBA preseason.
Will it be as exciting and revealing as the trial? Doubtful.
Will it include the participation of the Knicks Head Coach himself?
Honestly, that’s starting to look shaky - already there is speculation that David […]

Undoubtedly, one of the biggest NBA storylines we’ll neglect to cover this season will be the KG-led Boston Celtics, with their duo of All-Stars, plus Paul Pierce.
Fortunately for you, there are other places where you can read about Danny Ainge’s Brain Typing Wunderkinds. Like Celticsblog (a blog about the Celtics), where we got the […]

(We really didn’t want to make his hair pink, but we’re in a hurry and were having some Photoshop troubles this morning. We were going for an aqua/turquoise thing, in order to represent “fear” and/or “genuinosity”.)
The 07-08 NBA schedule is due to be released soon, and word on the street is that the not-so-classic Shaq-Kobe […]

Well, we’re two days post, and we’re not quite ready to look ahead to the actual Finals yet.
Without going too into it, Saturday night was somewhat emotional around our head, and right now there’s a definite feeling of contentment with just making it. Hopefully this changes by Thursday’s Game 1.
You have to understand - […]

As you likely know by now, the Western Finals is all set, as the Spurs knocked off the Suns in Game 6 last night. And you know what? That’s fine.
Sure, the Suns would be more entertaining in the next round, but the Spurs won - fair and square - no questions asked; no exceptions. […]

In one of the most “setting yourself up to be crushed-ish” scheduling plans of 2007, FSN New England is putting together all kinds of segments and specials for the NBA Draft Lottery next week.
(If you’re not aware, the Celtics stink, and lost a bunch of gmaes on purpose in the hopes of winning this […]

We’re going to discuss this Suns/Spurs business one more time, now that we’ve heard from the offending (and offended) parties.
This is a non-joke zone, because we actually have an opinion here, and it’s probably not the popular one, based on what we’ve read elsewhere. (Please read carefully before you yell at us.)
After watching all the […]

With only an hour to go before Lasers-Bulls Game 5, the NBA has provided the TNT crew with some vital material for their pregame show.
As suspected, Amare Stoudemire and Boris Diaw have been suspended for Game 5 of the Western Finals for leaving the bench during the skirmish lasterday. Robert Horry got two games for […]
