YAYsports! NBA

Our heart jumped more when the Celtics came out of that envelope at #5 than at any time during the Cavaliers playoff run so far.
Wow.
There’s really not all that much one can say except, “Negative 439 Tommy Points to Mr. Karma!”
We can’t even make fun of those poor fans - pick #5 is […]

There are few things more horrific than the knee dislocation that Clippers guard Shaun Livingston suffered back in the wintertime.
You may remember that we claimed repeatedly this injury was preventable, and were yelled at for it by many a commentor.
Thankfully, it appears Mr. Livingston is able to walk somewhat normally already, and is even able […]

(The Cavalier is on an extended leave of absence. He did not write this, but he wanted everyone to know that he smells better than you?)
(Look at that hardworking duo on the Celtics working hard at halftime earlier this year. What were they doing? Yes, working on their mid-range game shooting a scene from a […]

(The Cavalier is on an extended leave of absence. He did not write this because he is busy trying to find Ding-Dong’s for Eddy Curry.)
There are very few things worse for me than having an idea about something I want to write about……and then having other people write it to death. Here and here. It […]

(The Cavalier is on an extended leave of absence. He did not write this because he is busy trying to find orangutang knee ligaments to give to Gilbert Arenas.)

(The Cavalier is on an extended leave of absence. The following was not written by him because he is currently working as a mediator figuring out what it’s going to take for Boney and I to be friends on MySpace.)
If you haven’t heard by now, there was a great site that ‘launched yesterday and the […]

A lot of people like to rip on Isiah Thomas’s trades and free agent signings, and there’s good reason for that - most of them are horrible, and even the most rudimentary basketball fan can usually make that call immediately.
(To cite an extreme example of this, we were making jokes about Zeke trading for Steve […]

Big news for fans of coaches leaving their teams mid-season - Pat Riley is taking a break from the Miami Heat.
All signs say nobody knows why, but we’re 103% certain he’s simply tired of relying on a struggling Crisco Walker to be his primary scoring option.
Quick break in the action here - the other three […]

You don’t really want to need 29 points from Damon Jones to do it, but the Cavaliers won their game in NYC last night against Knicks.
The only other thing that really stuck out to us was LeBron meandering his way to 29 points of his own on over 50% shooting, which means we can’t […]

It seems the hot new trend in making announcements among NBA players is to do it via their websites.
Kobe talked about his knee on his earlier this week, and now Jalen Rose has made his choice of team public on his personal blog.
Oh yeah - he’s going to Phoenix, allegedly to win a championship, […]
