Suns win goes for nothing in the Sixers don't beat the clippers
Yes, that Suns game Saturday nite was really something. The Sixers went toe to toe with Steve Nash, Shaq & company and beat them at their own game. Dre Dala had a off the hook shooting nite and the Sixers ability to hold on for the win was an amazing sign of maturity. It was the kind of game many wo...

Day 18 of 170: Rasheed Wallace Doesn't Want Anymore Undefeated Teams
Line of the Night: Joe Johnson (1.39). You were all wrong. But, in fairness, who would have thought so much fantasy goodness would have come out of the Hawks/Nets game? Johnson led Atlanta with 32 points (30 of that coming in the game's second half), adding 9 boards, 5 assists and 2 steals. He [...]
Baron Davis is the best guard in the nba?
Okay ... were talking about this in the shop the other day. Question: Who's the better guard (1) Baron Davis or (2) Steve Nash. What followed was a series of rhetorical questions like ... what do you mean better point guard or shooting guard? Baron Davis is better the Nash one on one. What do yo...
If Only...
If only Phoenix had Devean George to block the Shaq trade. I'm sure Steve Nash and co. love sprinting up court only to stop, bust out some beers and wait for the big fella to lumber to the other end to jump start their offense. Not that it matters for me- hey, I really only care about the Pistons doi...
NBA Hot Topics: All-Star Reserves, Nash is Out of the All-Star Game, Riley is Back and Agent Zero's Hibachi is Ice Cold in Portland
While I spent the weekend watching LeBron battle Wade and Kobe a lot of things happened around the NBA (and no, I'm not talking about off court items like ESPN helping someone promote a book that was published by, surprise surprise, ESPN). Here are some quick takes on four subjects: Commisioner Stern selects two All-Star injury replacements, Steve Nash is out of All-Star Weekend...
Rajon Rondo
The Celtics outplayed and outhustled the Hawks for 3 1/2 quarters tonight and held on for the 99 - 93 win.
Big Baby (19 pts, 12 reb) lead the charge in the first half. You need to see his block on Joe Johnson.
Every time the Hawks cut into the lead in the 4th, Ray Allen (22 [...]

PHOENIX - Amare Stoudemire scored 41 points and Steve Nash had 36, and the Phoenix Suns rallied from a 22-point second-quarter deficit to overcome the Denver Nuggets 132-117 Monday night for their 50th victory of the season.
I don't know who to cheer for!
It is no secret that I am not a fan of the Los Angels Lakers. I really haven't been since Shaq left and the Kobe Bryant years began. I am cheering for the Phoenix Suns to win the whole thing. I think that Steve Nash deserves a ring more than anyone in the league, except for maybe Dirk Nowitzki. Actua...
Is Boston-Atlanta the next great NBA rivalry?
It seems that whenever the Boston Celtics and Atlanta Hawks are playing, epics are being created. In the 2008 NBA Playoffs, the eighth-seeded Hawks gave the Celtics all they could handle in the first round, taking the series to seven games. And against Atlanta at home, it took 34 points, 16 trips to the free-throw line, and a classic game-winning jumper by Paul Pierce with 0.5 seconds...
Magic is This Year's Hapless Fourth Seed In East Semi-Finals
I suppose you have a conference semi-final because the mathematics say half of eight is four and half of four is two.
We're down to the FInal Four in the NBA's Eastern Conference, but only three teams are semi-finals worthy. The fourth, the Orlando Magic -- whom the Pistons will spend the next week or so toying with -- is only there because league rules say four teams...
