Contrary to many people's opinions... there will be basketball in Cleveland next season. Losing LeBron James is obviously the biggest blow the Cavaliers organization has had to face in a long time, but they will rebuild and rebound. The Cleveland Cavaliers have a coach in place in Byron Scott who is familiar with the art of rebuilding a franchise, and I would like to say he has been successful each time. Looking at ...
After watching Kobe Bryant hoist his fifth NBA Championship as a Los Angeles Laker, one thing stood out in his finals performance. Bryant doesn't quit. If LeBron James watched this game from the comfort of his 25,000 square foot mansion, I hope he took notes. Game Seven was far from a masterpiece for Mr. Bryant. He was 6-24 from the field, 0-6 from three point land, and had just two assists the entire game. But these numbers didn't ...
To quote Dan Patrick: "You can't stop him, you can only hope to contain him." This is the approach that NBA teams need to start taking with Rajon Rondo of the Boston Celtics. The 6'1", 170-pound point guard has quietly been wowing NBA fans around the world in the playoffs this season. The man known as the "plus one" to the Big Three has been working hard to separate himself from ...
Not much has gone right for the Washington Wizards organization in the 2009-2010 NBA season. They had two players suspended because they brought guns into the locker room, traded away the faces of their franchise in Antawn Jamison and Caron Butler, and they recorded a dismal 26-56 record to bring up last place in the Southeast division. All of that just got a little better when they pulled off the upset of ...
The off-season has officially begun for LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers. After a second consecutive disappointing playoff end to an impressive regular season, the Cleveland Cavaliers are going to be looking to improve their roster yet again. While all of the writers focus on where LeBron is leaving to, his failures in the playoffs, and his deficiencies as a leader: I have chosen to go another route. Instead of putting another article ...
The coaching carousel in the NBA has already started its yearly spin. Chicago Bulls coach Vinny Del Negro, Philadelphia 76ers coach Eddie Jordan, and Los Angeles Clippers Interim coach Kim Hughes were the first three to get the ax this off-season, and I am sure there will be plenty more to come. Normally the next in line for an NBA head coaching position comes from inside of the NBA, but every so ...
Once again, the Cleveland Cavaliers looked as if they forgot how to beat the Boston Celtics. After an aggressive, dominating performance in Game Three on Friday night, the Cleveland Cavaliers returned to their passive, less defensive-minded selves on Sunday afternoon. LeBron James looked as if he forgot that he is the hardest man to stop when taking the ball to the hole, and the rest of the Cavaliers team looked liked ...
Disappointing, embarrassing, disturbing, and disgusting. These were all words that were muttered by respective members of the Cleveland Cavaliers fan base after the team's poor showing in Game Two at home. After laying a big goose egg in Game Two, the Cleveland Cavaliers must make a statement in Boston on Friday night. This statement will have to show the analysts, doubters, and the rest of the NBA that the Cavaliers are really ...
It looks like LeBron and the Cavaliers partied a little too hard after his MVP ceremony yesterday in Akron. The Cleveland Cavaliers were out-hustled, out-manned, and out-played by the Boston Celtics in game two of the best of seven series. Rajon Rondo and Rasheed Wallace were the main contributors in the thrashing of the Cleveland Cavaliers in front of their home crowd. Rondo dished out 19 assists, while Wallace hit three three-pointers en ...
The NBA Draft Lottery will ultimately decide who makes the tough decision of John Wall or Evan Turner first overall come the 2010 NBA Draft. The decision is going to come down to whether or not a team wants the silky, smooth NBA ready Turner, or the lightning quick, potential laden Wall. The upside of Wall has teams like the Nets thinking about drafting him even though they already have a proven ...
