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...

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...

Vlade Divac - the Next Laker?

Wolves Hang On

The Wolves won, 83-80 . A huge game for Kevin Garnett, ratcheting up 32 points, 21 boards, and five blocks. Good to see him respond like this to Peeler's elbow. This is, by far, the best way to get back at a thug-like play. (Although I still think he...

Will the T-Wolves Collapse?

A short break in teaching, checking out the T-Wolves / Kings game. What excitement. Sam stepping up and hitting his free throws - too bad his team mates didn't do the same, or the game would be over by now. 16 seconds left; Kings ball, down by three,...

Second Round Playoffs Make Up for the First Round

A Game of Streaks

All sports have streaks of one kind or another - winning streaks, losing streaks - and the NBA is no exception. There are microstreaks, like the runs teams make during the game, and macrostreaks, like the streak the Spurs are exhibiting right now, and...

More Great Juice on the Christies

In checking out The End Of The Bench this morning I saw that there is another article from everyone's favorite NBA couple - Doug and Jackie Christie. This is the infamous NBA couple that travels on the team bus together; that flash hand signals professing...
