With the NBA Finals tipping-off in a little over seven hours, I have made a list of 10 things that I am hoping to see from the Finals this year. I know making a list sounds silly and I probably won't get half of what I put on my list (happens to me every Christmas). But here is a short story: Two years ago, I made a Christmas list of 10 things, roughly, that I wanted. Some of … [Read more...] about NBA Finals: My NBA Finals Christmas List

I don't like to put anything on anyone or anything in particular, especially if that any one or thing has no business in deciding the outcome of a basketball game, but I think now everyone has the right to speculate on what is really going on between the Miami Heat and Boston Celtics. … [Read more...] about NBA Playoffs: Refs giving Miami ‘stars’ all (well most) of the calls

NBA Playoffs: Who in the hell are you, Dexter Pittman?
I am not a very happy man right now. I'm just not. I am not sour because the Indiana Pacers were blown off the floor by the Miami Heat tonight. Did you see Indiana's offense? I watched about five minutes of the game and couldn't take it. Miami is the better team, and it's obvious. But I'm still upset and here's why. … [Read more...] about NBA Playoffs: Who in the hell are you, Dexter Pittman?
Miami Heat panicking? Cancel practice, media session, Wade vs. Spoelstra (video)
Last night the Indiana Pacers treated the Miami Heat like Wall Street/the U.S. Government treats anyone who opposes Goldman Sachs- total obliteration. Indiana put on the whooping stick as the Heat trailed by as many as 21. Today, the fallout continues, as the Heat cancelled their media session and practice. It's circling the wagons time, as the presumptive favorite to win … [Read more...] about Miami Heat panicking? Cancel practice, media session, Wade vs. Spoelstra (video)
Indiana Pacers proving they’re elite, take 2-1 series lead over Miami Heat
They say small-market NBA teams who can't attract superstars have to build slowly and economically. Knowing that makes Indiana Pacers President Larry Bird's being named 2011-12 NBA Executive of the Year that much sweeter -- in many ways, it's representative of the job he's done over a span of four years leading up to what his team did Thursday at Bankers Life … [Read more...] about Indiana Pacers proving they’re elite, take 2-1 series lead over Miami Heat
