Miami Heat superstar Dwyane Wade delivered flying elbow to the head of Indiana Pacers guard Lance Stephenson, and was not called for a foul, during the fourth quarter of Friday night's Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

Dwyane Wade Drops A Rather Unnecessary Elbow On Lance Stephenson
One of these years, Dwyane Wade will make it through a playoff series against the Indiana Pacers without delivering a cheap shot. At least he displayed a little more tact this time around, delivering the transition ‘bow to Lance Stephenson’s dome while nobody was looking. Well, without the refs looking, that is. As for the cameras? Someone should remind Dwyane that they capture...

Paul George posterizes Birdman on dunk
Paul George of the Indiana Pacers is budding into a very good NBA player, and his talents were on display on Friday night during game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals. Towards the end of the third quarter Paul had the ball at the top of the key and was being guarded by LeBron James. George flew by LeBron and finished a nasty drive to the hole by dunking all over Birdman. ...
TOO GOOD
LeBron James throws insane pass to Miller
As good as LeBron James is at scoring, dunking, rebounding and defending, he is even better at passing. It’s what makes him so unique – the ability to not only recognize where the other nine players on the court and see openings most players can’t, but to be able to make pinpoint accurate passes facing the highest degree of difficulty imaginable. We saw another example of...

Royce White working on music when not playing basketball
I make my living (primarily) by writing about athletes, and Royce White makes his living (primarily) by being an athlete, but nobody is just one thing, and that is why now you are reading a music review written by a sportswriter of an album (possibly) made by a professional basketball player.
Confused yet? So am I.
White was drafted by the Houston Rockets with the No. 16 overall...

Mock draft: Gorgui Dieng has a defensive reputation
Sports Illustrated’s Chris Mannix has the Celtics selecting Lousiville’s Gorgui Dieng in his initial mock draft:
With or without the core of Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce — two players who may not be in Boston when training camp opens — the Celtics need size. Dieng, 23, has a defensive reputation (he was the Big East Defensive Player of the Year last season after swatting...

Ladies and gentlemen, the Dwight Howard sweepstakes have reached a critical point in their level of annoyingness: even teams without cap space are now rumored to be destinations.
