76ers Vs Knicks A be a good game

76er are playing good defensive basketball right now & the Knicks are starting a hot streak, lets see if they can keep it up.

Mavericks Vs Celtics

Has the the potential to be good but as good as it can be it also can be as bad, both teams have started the year off very slow.

Hawks Vs Pacers

Both teams are play good ball right now but this isn't a national televised game but it is something out for on ESPN or your local sport station highlights.

Thunder vs Hornets

Also not nationally televised but hornets know how to play a game down to the wire, if nothing else look out for game winning shot!

Wizards Vs Bulls

Also not nationally televised but this one can be good if you like point guard match up then Wall Vs Rose both number one draft picks could be good to see.

Hawks gave game away? or Heat took it!

I think this one is more about the hawks playing with no energy. Once they seen no Bron Bron & no Wade, they just thought it would be a cake walk. The 1st 4 quarters were putting me to sleep, the hawks bench was playing harder then the starters did which makes me wonder... why is Joe Johnson getting paid? but on the other hand the people that were playing like they wanted to win was Willie Green, Ivan Johnson & Josh Smith showed up at times but lagged defensively. Ivan played so hard he even fouled out.. i would think that's the kind of effort you'd want from a player every night, if i was coach Larry  Drew I'd find more minuets for both these players, might help when more games then you like!

Lakers Wack? Or Blazers Good?

The answer to that is... there both right, Portland just showed a whole new team that can keep up with the Heat & Bulls tall enough to bang with the Lakers & Thunder. But on the other hand lakers showed that they are still missing something with Kobe taking "crazy" shoots out side the offense not getting back on defense & not getting the ball in the inside on the right time, makes me once again question his and the lakers I.Q.'s

Lakers start the season off 4-4 & in the west .500% isn't playoff  worthy but maybe a 8th seed

Blazers did good picking up Raymon Felton, total opposite of Andre Miller. Some one with a chip on his shoulder who knows how to speed the pace of the game up and can hit big shoots, lets not forget he was on the Knicks team when it was him & Amari they started the season off pretty good. Then trade to Denver in the Melo trade & they became a good all around team and made to the playoffs. I thought losing Brandon Roy would be there down fall but so far it looks like I'm going to be wrong

Blazers start the season 5-1 & in the west that's 1st or 2sd place Worthy & Portland is hard to beat @ home

Not 1... Not 2... well lets talk about this 1st one 1st

The Miami Heat are looking good this years & need I remind you this is only there second year together, & if Dwade & Bron Bron have anything to do with it there only gonna get better. There weakest team was believe it or not last year & picking up rookie Norris Cole & Shane Battier might of just boosted there overall rating 2 to 3 points.

With Erik Spoelstra pulling pages out of Phil Jackson's, Greg Popovich, & Doc River play books & the you sit out you got a bruised pinky toe (wink wink) move, It looks like with the extra long off season he had time to fix some of the broken pieces. But with Wade, Bron & oh yeah Bosh this shouldn't be hard to do, every body just needs to know this roles. if i wrote the movie to the Heat in Miami the cast a go something like this: Dwade as Jordon, Lebron as Pippen, Bosh as Kukoc, Cole as Kerr & Battier as Robman & not to leave out the bench.

There are a few issue with this team which shouldn't be hard to answer.
                                                        
                                                     The Good
One who gets the ball 12 secs left on the clock: Wade As Jordan to answer that question, before Bron got there who was hitting all the game winners who won a championship.

Two what kinda offense should be ran: with 6'8" 6'9" Bron Bron having the same skills as the great magic Johnson, you tell him to watch some old tape on the showtime Lakers! before you can say "man down court" magic already had added a assist or two points to his stat line.

                                                         The Bad
Three how do they beat the zone teams are starting to run on them: this is where Kukco i mean bosh is post to step in & get the ball in the paint. But bosh is a good shooter/pick and pop player he's gonna need to work on post moves and some impact points as Barkley would word it. Lucky he's got Haslem to help

My only problem with Bron Bron is he starting to add the flop to his game (smdh). Kobe does it, Ginobili does to, i wish they stop, that's how ref lose respect for you. Never did i see bird flop & he was a shooter! who knew when to drive, Jordon sure didn't flop and he went against the bad boys... if any thing he went harder i can go down the list but you get my drift.

Wade if not the best 2 guard of this new era of players, isn't as fast as the flash use to be, & not on the ground as much, Yet and still getting older he's gonna need to stay healthy in order to win it all cause if Bron & Bosh could do it then I don't think they would of join the heat

As Far As Losing The Finals Last Year... They are who we thought they were!

It's been two days... (3 new york time) & I still can't get over Kobe "Jellybean" Bryant's shooting... with in the last two games he's great 12 for 46
6 for 28 in the latest (sarcastically speaking).

Now i wasn't the biggest MJ fan growing up but if you want to be the greatest your gonna have to find other ways just like mj did... Mr Bryant hasn't had a good/Kobe like game since game 7 of his last championship... and if these injury's are really affecting him then the smart thang to do is sit out and heal instead of using them as a excuse, cause @ this time all your doing is hurting the team more then helping... in the last 2 losing games turn overs you've had the last 3! biggest turn overs which are starting to make me question your basketball I.Q.... to put in plan in simple your making some dumb passes


Phil Jackson said last year that world peace (formally know as Ron Artest) runs the triangle better then Kobe... it starting to make me wonder
as far as mike brown... your only 6 games in the season... so ill give you a pass for now but I'm gone to need you to be a better coach, so far i don't really know what your doing but your in Laker town greatness don't come from let Kobe Bryant (as Delonte West would say) "puzzy foot" on defense.

Kobe's been over rated these last two to three years on defense slightly letting the offense slide by & wondering why Bynum cant stay out of foul trouble, if he played defense like he wanted to not get scored on or wanted a best defender of the year award... then maybe Bynum & Gasol wouldn't be in foul trouble by the end of the game... Jordan wanted to win @ all cost including making his self better... Kobe on the other hand... i think it mite be just to make you look good.
 now some mite say he's 32 what do you want, Jordan was 45 @ 40... you do the math

step yo game up!
