Count me among the people that thought the Orlando Magic had no shot against the Cleveland Cavaliers in this series. The Cavs were too hot and the Stan Van Gundy's just came off a grueling series with the Celtics. But I seemed to forget that no one on Cleveland can ...

If you are the Boston Celtics, who do you call on to shoot with the game on the line? Ray Allen or Paul Pierce of course. But with both being well defended you go to the third option, none other then Glen Davis. Big Baby hit the game winner last ...

Super Sports Saturday kind of lived up to expectations. It had moments, but maybe I hyped up the day to an unrealistic level. Simeon Varlamov made the save of the playoffs, 23 people hit the superfecta bet at the Kentucky Derby, and Hatton got destroyed by Manny Pacquiao. I guess ...

Lakers 103 Celtics 98 - The games between the Lakers and Celtics are becoming old habit. One team will jump out to the lead while the other one will furiously come back to make it a game. Game 5 was no different. LA jumped out to 17 and 14 point ...

Celtics 97 Lakers 91 - What a sick game. LA took control of this game early by being aggressive, especially in driving the ball to the hole. Lamar Odom led the charge scoring 13 points in the first quarter; almost outscoring Boston on his own. The Celtics would manage mini-runs ...

Lakers 87 Celtics 81 - The league MVP stepped up big. Kobe Bryant led the Lakers with 36 points, constantly hitting open jumpers and abusing whoever the Celtics put on him. Bryant wouldn't let what happened at the end of game 2 happen again. He wasn't going to be denied ...
