Stern & the NBA marketing people would love a Houston-Miami final. But they don't believe we can make it that far. At the time of the nuclear...
1. Ditto to RIET's most recent post. 2. You're comparing failure to call a moving screen (which is called even less often in the NBA than palming...
Actrually, I think PdH is onto something. Close, but not quite. I asked myself why Stern would throw gasoline onto the fire in a situation...
First of all, I would agree that Stern would love Yao vs. Shaq, & Van Gundy brother finals as a marketing matchup in the finals --- if he believed...
Well said, rhester.
Actually, I'd rather go back to two refs and have a third ref as a replay official. And give him the chance to decide to review a play in the...
Nice article. One of the best I've seen in the midst of all this chaos. It just might be time for a limited number of "coach challenge" replays....
With three referees, one of them has the job of watching the baseline. We're not talking about a few inches out of bounds. Both feet were a foot...
If we didn't deserve to win because WE missed free throws and because WE didn't rotate effectively every time, then Dallas sure as HELL didn't...
The fact also remains that they executed well enough down the stretch to come back and win game 5 if even ONE of the calls down the stretch which...
The problem is that James either just has not bought into or has not yet been able to incorporate Van Gundy's offensive ball movement philosophy...

And it's going to be a public relations bonanza for the NBA when China finds out they fined Van Gundy $100 grand for his comments?
Good point. Hard to believe this, but apparently he could have gotten away with if he'd actually come out and said that the NBA officials are...
Those two statements are not mutually exclusive. This series would be over if EITHER we played well down the stretch OR the refs treated Dirk &...
I couldn't believe that. I could live with it if it was in the first half. But in the 4th quarter of an NBA playoff game. Morons.
My take on this is similar but slightly more guarded. I recognize the comparisons with that 1995 team. I also get much the same feeling as the...
That businesslike approach is something I've been noticing too. It reminds me of the Bird-McHale era Celtics. But I really think this team has...
Milwaukee at home will be tough and Phoenix isn't a gimme in Phoenix.
Definitely not "inevitable". It depends on the results he and the Rockets achieve over the next two seasons. If he were not so obviously trying...
