3rd Posterization of the Preseason

Welcome to another edition of “You Got Bammed On!”
I know its the preseason but anytime you get dunked on people are going to talk about it. Well today’s victim is former All-Star Jermaine O’Neal. The Raptors brought him in to help provide an inside presence and help Chris Bosh down low.
Jermaine’s been oft injured lately, [...]

2nd Posterization of the NBA Preseason

I guess D-Wade saw what Bill Walker did and wanted a piece of the action. Playing against the New Jersey Nets over in London, Wade showed the international fans how he got the nickname “Flash”…

I don’t know about you, but my reaction to that dunk went a little something like this… [...]

1st Posterization of the NBA Preseason

If you follow high school hoops, the name Bill Walker isn’t new to you. You already know that he’s boys with O.J. Mayo and the duo spent their high school years terrorizing and dunking on little kids. Damn!!!

Team USA wins the Gold

I’ve been gone for a while. I was over in Europe getting my chill on but I made sure I kept track of the games. It was great to see Team USA dispel a lot of the crap people were saying about basketball in America. We showed that we still have the best players in the [...]

Team USA Talkin’ Trash…

Why in the hell are Team USA members running their mouths before the Olympics? I just don’t get it, when will these dudes learn that these other countries can ball? This past week both Lebron James and Dwyane Wade came out guaranteeing gold medals in Beijing. Don’t they remember that the USA hasn’t won a major [...]

D-Wade Lookin Good!!!

If you’re a Heat fan like I am, you’re watching these USA games closely. I’m watching my boy D-Wade looking to see how that knee is doing. So far so damn good!!! The boy looks like he has his explosion back and that was sorely missed last season. Yeah he still scored points and played pretty [...]

There’s No Place Like Home???

I’ll admit it, I haven’t always liked Baron Davis. For some reason he always kind of rubbed me the wrong way. But there is no denying that this cat has major skills and when healthy, is one of the very best point guards in the NBA. Since he’s been in Golden State, I’ve become a [...]
