Now maybe all this fuss about the Spurs being a boring basketball team can finally be silenced as the Lakers made many wishes come true last night by dispatching San Antonio — and ending the defense of their title, 100 - 92. Leading the way for the Lakers was that Kobe fellow who had […]

Is tonight the night the Spurs championship defense comes to an end? With the Lakers holding a 3-1 edge in the series and the game taking place in LA, there’s a very real sense it’s time for the Larry O’Brien trophy to change hands. While NBA Playoff leads of this size are rarely overcome, […]

Do you hear that? It sounds like the death knell is ringing for the San Antonio Spurs and their NBA World Championship designation. After an odd ending that saw two potential blown calls — both involving Derek Fisher — the Lakers beat the Spurs, 93-91, taking a commanding 3-1 series lead back to […]

Another way you could title this post is, “Kobe Takes The First Half Off, Lakers Get Down By 20, Still Win” and it would capture pretty much what went on last night in Game 1 of the Western Conference Final. After finishing the first half with only two more points than I scored, Kobe […]

The Spurs beat the Hornets last night, earning their right to advance to the Western Conference Finals where they will face Kobe and the Lakers. What did we learn last night? The Spurs are really, really hard to beat when they hit 3-point shots (12-28); the Hornets are probably are year or two […]

Whatever the case, Game 7 between the Spurs of San Antonio and New Orleans Hornets […]

Question: was this a hard pick, set to free an attacking Manu Ginobili or was this a dirty play by Big Shot Bob? Another question: would this even be a discussion point if Horry wasn’t involved?

It looks like a smart play from here and if that was Tim Duncan setting the […]

After facing watching them face their first elimination game in over a season, we learned something about the San Antonio Spurs — they aren’t giving up their World Championship designation without a fight. In a series where the home team has had the undisputed upper-hand, the Spurs held serve in what could be their […]

Watching the Jazz and that Lake Show fight to a 2-2 draw during the first four games of their playoff series has been some damn entertaining basketball to watch. And like many of you know, Kobe “MVP” Bryant noticeably wrenched his back during Game 4, a tweak that obviously bothered him as the game […]

It was a busy Game 4 for Utah’s Ronnie Price yesterday. After getting smashed to the floor by Ronny Turiaf — a fall that opened Price up above the eye and resulted in Turiaf getting ejected (Price also received stitches for his troubles) — he followed that up with a resounding blocked shot, one […]
