Can the Glove Fit?

Heat center Alonzo Mourning suffered a career ending injury after tearing his patella tendon in his knee. The surgery is not career-ending traditionally except for the fact that Zo is 37 and already decided that this would be his last year. It's too bad that Zo got sick during his prime, and now that his career is over after this injury we'll have to reminisce about the better days of Zo.

If you missed the first two games, don't worry. Each game the point totals you can earn, and the stakes, increase -- you have plenty of time to get on board. Sunday's Game will be worth 6 points, so make sure to check back tomorrow to make your guesses -- or else KG the Tickle Monster is gonna getcha!

"The law is the law, but the reality is the cultural practice is not to use the sidewalks even when the snow isn't there." That was Boston City Councilor Chuck Turner on why he doesn't have to shovel his walkway in Roxbury.

For those of you new to the contest, it's not too late to join, and there' still plenty of time to grab the lead. We'll do another post tomorrow morning to give you the opportunity to make your guesses....

For those of you new to the contest, go here to read the rules. It's not too late to join, and there' still plenty of time to grab the lead. We'll do another post tomorrow...

Last night was a heady night for those on The Crack Staff @ Perkisabeast.com. It was our annual holiday excursion to the TDBG, one the younger pups here at Perkisbeast.com were relishing an oppurtunity to participate in. Ladies and Gentlemen, Trust us, this night, we did not disappoint.

Considering Alonzo Mourning is most likely done for the season, now is the time Shaq needs to shut up all the pundits and show he has what it takes to put a team on his back (along with D-Wade) and actually make his 20 million per season seem acceptable. One thing Shaq has not lost is his sense of humor. After Wednesday's loss to the Hawks, Shaq revealed he has been playing under...

Let's start off by saying that when you are still too pissed off to sleep at 2:00 AM because of a basketball game then you obviously have bigger probems than the Celtics losing their third game of the season. That being said, please allow me a moment to hate

Caught the tail end of the New Jersey Nets @ Miami Heat third quarter. With 0.3 tenths of a second left in the quarter, New Jersey Nets swingman Antoine Wright landed badly on his right ankle (which may effectively keep him out of action for the next few weeks based on the fact that he had to be carried to the locker room by a couple of his teammates). Watching Wright lying...

There's still pleeeeeeeenty of time to get yourself registered and involved in this tremendous contest for two tickets for the Celtics January 4th game versus the Memphis Grizzlies. For those of you already guessing, you know the drill. For those of you who are new to the contest, here's how it works.

The Big 3 were big, the C's bench played fantastically, but the story of this game was Boston's defense. Only one Bulls starter cracked the 10-point barrier - Ben Gordon (with 19). Heinrich and Joe Smith were each held to 2 points, with Nocioni and Deng each scoring 8. Just another terrible shooting night for Chicago at 36% as a team. Boston, on the other hand, shot 44% from...

While the Celtics are yearning for some challenges in their schedule, they likely circled last Wendesday's Detroit game and this Orlando game on the calendar severval weeks ago. Unfortunately, Orlando lost a bit of it mojo, and it's guard play seems to be in a bit of disarray. Look for Rondo take down Nelson in another Celtics blow-out . . .

As soon as the game was over, my buddy Chris (who's a Spurs fan) sent me a text message: "I want to see these 2 teams in the conference finals". Me too, Chris. Me too. All the credit in the world to the Pistons, and specifically Chauncey Billups, who knocked down two free-throws with a tenth of a second left to seal the win, 87-85. They gave the Celtics everything they had and
