I hate to rain on anyone’s parade, but this is what America has become today. After over 200-plus years of work, this is what America has accepted. Rewarding mediocrity is something that ruins sports franchises, businesses and America. … [Read more...] about The Houston Rockets are fools for signing Jeremy Lin

NBA Finals: Game 2 statistical prediction for LeBron James
I made a prediction about a week ago predicting LeBron James' numbers in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals. I was almost spot-on. He finished with 30 points, 13 rebounds, two assists, one block, and two steals. He shot 11-25 from the, 2-6 from three-point range, and 6-8 from the line. If you want to see what I predicted, just click here. Well, I am at it again. I … [Read more...] about NBA Finals: Game 2 statistical prediction for LeBron James

NBA Playoffs: Predicting LeBron James’ game tonight
There is no denying the significance of tonight's Game 5 between the Boston Celtics and Miami Heat in Miami. After winning the first two games of the series, the Heat dropped the next two and allowed Boston to bring it back to Boston, to either close the door on the Heat's season or stave-off elimination. Tonight's game will decide the situation. But know that LeBron James … [Read more...] about NBA Playoffs: Predicting LeBron James’ game tonight
NBA Playoffs: Kevin Durant is a “closer”
I have said this many times and will continue to say it until people realize it: Kevin Durant is the best BASKETBALL player on this planet. Not only is he 6'10, long, and lanky, but he can score, rebound, take over and close games. There is a big difference between him and 3-time MVP LeBron James: Durant lives in the gym. There is no denying James' talent, but I am taking a … [Read more...] about NBA Playoffs: Kevin Durant is a “closer”
NBA Playoffs: Referees, put your whistles in your pocket
This is the second time now that I have had to write about the referees in the playoffs. And again, it's about their lack of judgment during a game. What happened last night was an absolute atrocity. During Game 1 between the Boston Celtics and Miami Heat, Boston was called for three (yes, I said "three") technical fouls in the second quarter. Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, and head … [Read more...] about NBA Playoffs: Referees, put your whistles in your pocket
NBA Playoffs: May the toughest team win
There has been nothing pretty about the series between the Philadelphia 76ers and Boston Celtics. The past few games have been rather rough to watch. Both teams have scored less than 20 points in a quarter in 17 times so far in this series. And we are going to a Game 7, back in Boston on Friday night. This series has been trademarked by great (and I mean great) defense and … [Read more...] about NBA Playoffs: May the toughest team win
Shaquille O’Neal: The Future GM of the Orlando Magic?
It's interesting how things work. Everything seems to come full-circle more times than not. Shaquille O'Neal was drafted by the Orlando Magic way back in 1992. He spent four very productive years with the Magic before leaving Disney World for Los Angeles. Remember that O'Neal left for more money. Now, it's reported that he might have an interview for the GM job of the Magic. … [Read more...] about Shaquille O’Neal: The Future GM of the Orlando Magic?
