Mavs-Kidd Trade Final

After a bunch of false starts, the Dallas Mavericks will be landing perennial All Star guard Jason Kidd . The original trade would have involved Devean George and Jerry Stackhouse along with Devin Harris, but with George exercising a no-trade clause in...

Pau Gasol's First Game in Purple and Gold

After the stunning trade from the Memphis Grizzlies for Kwame and pocket lint, Pau Gasol stepped onto the court tonight for his debut game as a Laker as a starter. Despite Gasol's sore back - and a season-low 6 points from Kobe - the Lakers came away...

Midway Through the First Round...

We're nearing the midway point of the first round of the NBA playoffs... let's see how my predictions are faring. Let's start with the East... I picked Detroit to sweep Orlando, and they did that this afternoon. I predicted that the Cavs would sweep the...

2006-2007 Playoff Predictions

Each year I post my playoff predictions before the start of the playoffs, from the first round through the Finals. In last year's predictions I mistakenly picked the Pistons besting the Heat and the Spurs beating the Mavs, resulting in a Spurs-Pistons...

Jason Kidd vs. Joumana Kidd - Who Would Win in a Fight?

Net's guard Jason Kidd has filed for divorce from his wife of ten years, Joumana Kidd. Apparently she's been a little to aggressive with Jason, who claims she's hit, punched, kicked, and thrown nearby objects at Jason when getting angry or frustrated...

2nd Round of Playoffs Begin With a Yawn

With the top eight teams left vying for their conferences' finals, you'd think that we'd - the NBA fan base - would be in for a scintillating treat of well-played, down-to-the-wire basketball games. Save for Game 1 of the Mavs/Spurs series, however, all...

We've Got Ourselves Some Series!

I didn't think there'd be too much drama in the first round of the playoffs this year, but we certainly have some interesting series! The Bulls just knotted up their series with the Heat at two games apiece, the Pacers are giving the Nets a run for their...

No Big Surprises in the Playoffs...

No big surprises after the first couple of games in the playoffs. The "Contenders" - San Antonio, Detroit, Miami, and Dallas - all hold 2-0 leads. Some people pegged the Bulls or Grizz as the surprise teams, and while 2-0 isn't the same as 4-0, I can...

2005-2006 Playoff Predictions

Time for this year's insanely inaccurate playoff predictions! But before we begin, let's review my oracle skills from last season, when I made my 2004-2005 playoff predictions . My Eastern Conference picks were nearly perfect. I ended up picking all of...

Assessing my Playoff Picks Thus Far

Back on April 22nd I made my NBA playoff predictions . I am notoriously poor when it comes to making predictions, but, if you don't mind me saying, I did a pretty decent job in picking the teams through, at least, the first round. Eastern Conference My...

My Playoff Predictions

The NBA playoffs get underway tomorrow, so I best be making my picks. Before I do, though, let's look back at my, accurately dubbed, “insanely inaccurate” picks at the beginning of the season . Out of the east I thought the conference would shake out...

The Resurgence of the Eastern Conference

So it's playoff time again, and this year's playoffs look like they'll be one of the most even and exciting in quite a while. This year, IMO, has finally seen the resurgence of the East. Sure, last year we had some great teams in the East (notably Indiana...

My Insanely Inaccurate 2004-2005 Predictions

Accurately predicting the outcome of an NBA season is hard enough when you have just a core of stable, dominant teams, but it's near impossible this year, with so many teams in the league reaching parity, thanks in part to some blockbuster trades and...

One of the Noisiest Offseasons in Memory

Usually NBA offseasons are pretty quiet, nothing too interesting happens. A big trade, perhaps, an early retirement, or maybe a surprising un-retirement. But usually the months between July and October are pretty uninteresting for us NBA fans. This offseason...
