YAYsports! NBA

With the Bulls sweeping the Heat almost an afterthought in this All-New Warriors-centric World, one can’t help but feel a little bit of sadness for Coach Pat, Dwyane Wade, Shaquille O’Neal and Co.
Actually, that’s not true at all - this is sweet, karmic, justice.
The team that so much as said “we’re gonna relax […]

(The Cavalier is on an extended leave of absence. The following was not written by him, although he has already written his Oscar acceptance speech for Best Director.)
The regular season is over and the playoffs will soon be upon us.  Happy are those who worship at court of the hardwood.
Who’s in? 
The Heat, the Suns, the […]

(The Cavalier is on an extended leave of absence. He did not write this although by this time next week…..he will be back.)
(I hope you enjoy my entry into the manipulation of logos. It is just THE beginning. I now know I have the power to do so, now I just need to master it.)
There […]

While plagiarizing our latest post, which was to be about Michael Redd and Ben Gordon’s combined 100 point scoring outburst in the CHI victory over MIL lasterday, we came across a little news item which may be of interest to those who follow this NBA.
Dwyane Wade has decided to forego surgery for now and attempt […]

Which player’s magical powers are actually keeping this glowy ball afloat, and which is just using smoke, mirrors, and some sort of injected hand/eye-glow liquid to make it appear so?
The answer, friends, is that all of them are using the hand/eye-glow liquid - fooled you again. (Actually, we decided to siply remove their hands, […]

In thinking about the second half (2/5?) of this NBA season, the more curious among fandom will be keeping a close eye on the Miami Heat, what with the having all their people back and the having their coach back and the part where they are probably gonna decide they “feel like it” now.
(Interesting that […]

We don’t think it’s any secret to the discerning reader that we’re not entirely enthralled with the NBA so far this year.
If it’s not our Cavaliers playing with apathy, it’s Chris Webber tanking in order to get released. If it’s not (something), it’s Brad Daugherty doing NASCAR commentary for ESPN.
That’s not to say there’s nothing […]

Y’know, since that Cavaliers recap went so well, and we’re kinda tired of running tired/generic quotes from players, we’re thinking this “reader-submitted recap” thing may have some legs.
We’d like to try picking one game every night (or most nights), coming up with 5 questions about it, and then using reader-submitted answers to those questons […]

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 […]

With the World Champion Miami Heat sitting at 13-17, and stars Dwyane Wade and Shaq sitting out with injuries, there had to be some sort of “relievy” feeling in MIA when Ira Winderman reported that Shaq is getting close to returning.
He’ll be tagging along on the Heat’s impending West Coast trip, and all signs (Pat […]
