  • Suns Win 7th Straight Game, Including Back-to-Back Over Kings

    The Phoenix Suns completed a back-to-back sweep of the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday night to go into the holiday weekend on a 7 game winning streak. After narrowly winning Tuesday night in Sacramento, the Suns welcomed the Kings to Phoenix with a strong opening statement, scoring 47 points in the first...
  • Kings get revenge, defeat Suns at Arco

    The Sacramento Kings got a bit of revenge this afternoon against the Phoenix Suns , defeating them at Arco 107-100. After getting throttled on Thursday 118-100 , the Kings simply wouldn't let the Suns get the win in Sunday's rematch. Mike Bibby led the Kings w/ 37 points, while hitting 9 3-pointers....
  • 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 the first round winners and did predict the Pistons...

  • Suns edge Kings in preseason action, 112-102

    Despite the loss of Amare Stoudemire for the next 4 months, the Suns look like they'll still be competitive and compete for the Pacific Division lead. Playing in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Phoenix looked pretty strong with their new nucleus of players. Shawn Marion, Eddie House and James Jones all scored...
  • 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 pick : Heat (1) beats New Jersey (8) in 6 Results...

  • 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 like so: Detroit Pacers Heat 76ers Bucks Cavs Nets...

  • 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 player movements in the offseason. (On an aside, can...

  • Stojakovic Wants Out of Sacramento

    According to this story , Peja Stojakovic is demanding that the Kings trade him; he has two years left on his contract, with an option for a third. Supposedly this comes as a surprise to Kings management, although, if you think about it, it's really not too far off. Recall last year that Peja was playing...

  • Vlade Divac - the Next Laker?

    It sounds like Vlade Divac will join the L.A. Lakers for the mid-level exception ($4.9 million). Divac was quoted as saying: "I called [the Lakers] and said, 'Let's do it,' " Vlade Divac , at 7-1” and 260 lbs. will bring some size to the Laker's frontcourt next year, as well as some wily veteran skills...

  • 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 should have given Peeler a good, hard shove to let...
