We Like Obscure NBA Players: Obscure Draft Picks!
There have been a number of memorable draft picks in the last 30 years or so but there have also been a number of questionable picks. The No-Look Pass has put together a list of some of our favorite obscure players from picks 1-10 in honor of today’s draft. 1. Pervis Ellison – Sacramento Kings [...]
2010 NBA Finals Pick
PETER PICKS: Boston in 7. DAVE PICKS: Boston in 7. JIMMY PICKS: Lakers in 6. NICK PICKS: Lakers in 7. (Somehow, my head (the “analyst”… ha ha, that’s funny) and my heart (the fan in me) are having a battle in this match-up. Of course, I’m also insane. Let’s see what the two parts of [...]
2010 NBA Playoffs (WCF Game 2 Recap)
#3 PHOENIX SUNS 112 @ #1 LOS ANGELES LAKERS 124 (Lakers lead series, 2-0) Game 2 looked more of the same from the start. The Suns turned the ball over early and often; they committed 7 giveaways in the first quarter. The Lakers did the usual, playing terrific defense and running the Suns off the [...]
2010 Regular Season Awards (Most Valuable Player)
The NBA gave out their season awards eons ago. We got interrupted by Playoff fever. Some of these blurbs may even sound funny and outdated. Anyway, here are our picks of previous awards. PREVIOUS AWARDS 2010 Coach of the Year 2010 Rookie of the Year 2010 Most Improved Player 2010 Defensive Player of the Year [...]
It’s A Mental Game For The Jazz
Well, for the first two games, the Lakers have pretty much owned the series against the Jazz. It’s quite evident what the Jazz lack against the Lakers: size. The guys that do have size (Kyrylo Fesenko and Kosta Koufos) are inexperienced… and the Laker bigs would just overmatch them. Carlos Boozer doesn’t get as many [...]
2010 Playoff 2nd Round Preview (Los Angeles Lakers)
I wasn’t shocked that the Los Angeles Lakers had a difficult time with the 8th-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder. If Nick Collison boxed out Pau Gasol, we’d be talking about a Game 7 for those teams. But the Lakers are now in the 2nd Round… and waiting for them are the Utah Jazz. These guys are [...]
2010 Playoff 2nd Round Preview (Utah Jazz)
The Utah Jazz is not your typical #5 seed in the West. They were fighting for the #2 seed until the last few days. They defeated a tough Denver Nugget team in a rough-and-tumble six-game series. Utah lost Mehmet Okur to injury and will not be back the rest of the postseason. Still, they overcame [...]
2010 NBA Playoffs (Day 14 Recap)
#4 Atlanta Hawks 83 @ #5 Milwaukee Bucks 69 I think most people expected a great game six. What we got was by far the worst game in this year’s playoffs. With the game in the 40′s in the 3rd quarter, I couldn’t bear to watch it anymore. All I know is the Hawks were [...]
2010 NBA Playoffs (Day 9 Recap)
#4 Boston Celtics 92, @ #5 Miami Heat 101 So much for the Heat going fishing. Dwyane Wade was NOT going to let that happen under any circumstances. Wade was phenomenal, torching Boston for 46 points on 16/24 shooting, including five three-pointers. After leaving game three with cramps late in the game, Wade made sure [...]
