Now that the other shoe has dropped and team like GS and Lac who had lots of cap space have started to blink- its time to take a quick peek at the Western Conference. AND given how much people had to say about my first preview of the Eastern Conference, I’m interested to see what people think about how the west will play out. Continue Reading

The Toronto Raptors (34-29) continue their five game, seven day road trip tonight against the Golden State Warriors (39-23).
This will be the second of a back-to-back for the Raptors. Last night they lost 117-108 to the Lakers in LA without Chris Bosh. TJ Ford scored a team high 28 points. Continue Reading

The Toronto Raptors (19-17) will be in tough Sunday when they welcome the Portland Trailblazers (22-13) to the ACC. These teams last met in Portland on December 19th. Brandon Roy led the Blazers, scoring 25 points, grabbing 9 rebounds, and dishing out 8 assists. Continue Reading

Sorry there was no pre-game work up, with an early start to the game, and being a Sunday and all…

The Warriors haven’t started the year great, but they were missing Jackson for the first 7 games. Don’t get it twisted, this team is badass. Why? Two words: Don Nelson. Great coach, top three for me in the league. He is a great tactician, makes great adjustments on the fly, has incredible strategy, and utilizes his players properly. Sam Mitchell should have taken some notes today, could have helped. Continue Reading

This is one of those games I wish I was at. People say the COY was a farce, well what about MVP? Just because Nash won it twice in a row, didn’t mean he didn’t deserve it this year (I would have voted for Nash if I had a vote to cast). Looks like Dwayne Wade was bang on in his rebuttal to Dirk Nowitzki about last years final. Screw Cuban…I BELIEVE!! Continue Reading

What a night! The Warriors made the Mavs look ordinary. The look on Cubans face the whole game was priceless. He looked like he was going to jump into the bench, and start cutting cheques to motivate the rest of the team. Nelson was masterful in his strategy. Like watching a well played game of risk…total domination. Avery had no answers. Forget the Suns, guess what the next cool thing will be? Small ball a la the Warriors. Continue Reading
