Can Dwight Howard Handle the LA Spotlight?

As I watch the Los Angeles Lakers, I find that their center in Dwight Howard looks increasingly uncomfortable. On one hand, I think his discomfort is more related to trying to find chemistry with his new teammates — NBA future Hall of Famers, Kobe Bryant and Steve Nash. Or it could very possible be because his back is not 100-percent. However, I am more inclined to believe that...

Jason WhitneyDwight Howard is easily one of the top five most athletic players in the game. Couple that with his Superman-type power when dunking and you get a once in a life-time explosive specimen.  So Dwight Howard getting his shot blocked during a dunk attempt will make anyone speechless. Who blocked him you ask? Paul Millsap! Known as a tweener type player, Millsap stands at...

Bloopers from LeBron James and Dwight Howard

Two of the best players in the NBA had embarrassing bloopers last night. Although the Miami Heat crushed the Brooklyn Nets and LeBron James had a monster game; I am sure his teammates got on him for his missed dunk attempt. The Lakers are 1-4 but more embarrassing last night was Dwight Howard’s free throw. He air balled it. How do you shoot an air ball when you are a pro and have...

The Magic: A Team of Believers

Do you believe in the Orlando Magic? Well, a few months ago, almost everyone believed something about this team and it’s that they would be stinking awful.

The Lakers Really Just Fired Mike Brown

What a bunch of crap… the Lakers have just decided to let head coach Mike Brown go after the team’s 1-4 start. Unbelievable. I really think the Lakers should’ve given him more of a chance. He only lasted FIVE GAMES into a brand new season with new player additions. Yeah, the Lakers stink right now, but if they still weren’t good by January or something, then I could see...
