The Memphis Grizzlies are in the Conference Finals. I, for one, am not surprised. Even if it was at the expense of an Oklahoma City Thunder team without Russell Westbrook. But it’s not like it was a lock even when Westbrook was there; this Grizzly team took the Thunder to seven games in 2011. Ever since then, I had been… Read more →
#5 CHICAGO BULLS 91 @ #1 MIAMI HEAT 94 EAST Semifinals * Game 5 * HEAT win series, 4-1 The Heat probably really meant it when they said they didn’t want to go back to Chicago for a Game 6.

#1 MIAMI HEAT 88 @ #5 CHICAGO BULLS 65 EAST Semifinals * Game 4 * Heat lead series, 3-1 As you can see by the score, this was not pretty to watch. This was the Bulls’ scoring in the first three quarters: 15, 18, NINE. The Bulls only had 42 points after three quarters. They would end up with 65…. Read more →
We all know that Memphis Grizzlies center Marc Gasol is the Defensive Player of the Year. But in this fantastic voting process, Gasol somehow ended up on the All-Defensive SECOND team. And if it wasn’t for the bizarre placement of both Joakim Noah AND Tyson Chandler on the All-Defensive first team because of a tie, Gasol wouldn’t even be on… Read more →
