Are LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony sore losers?

Denver Nuggets forward Carmelo Anthony may be a little pouty, but he is not a sore loser unlike his 2003 NBA draft classmate LeBron James.

Chris Brown having ball with Bow Wow and Shaq and says “I’m not a monster”

By On May 27, 2009 · 3,080 Comments

Chris Brown is obviously not worried about his preliminary hearing Thursday for his two felony charges in the alleged assault with his former pop star girlfriend Rihanna.
In the last few days, he’s been caught singing, b-balling and youTubing.
Between breaks recording his new album Graffitti in Orlando with a single due out this summer, Brown has been spotted courtside during two of the Magic’s Eastern Conference Final games against Cleveland. He sat with Usher, Chris Tucker and Dwyane Wade to witness Orlando’s 99-89 victory on Sunday, and then Tuesday, he sat with his rapper best friend Bow Wow for the Magic’s 116-114 OT win to take a 3-1 series lead over LeBron James’ Cavs.

Did the officials goof? Did Cleveland really beat Orlando to even the East Finals?

By On May 27, 2009 · 2,025 Comments

For the record, Orlando beat Cleveland 116-114 Tuesday night to take a 3-1 lead in the Eastern Conference Finals and the Magic need just one more win in the next three games for their first NBA Finals appearance in 14 years.
But replays of LeBron James’ second free throw to tie the game at 100 and force overtime make it appear that Anderson Varejao reached up and tipped the ball in, which would result in two points not the one point the Cavs were credited for James’ last free throw. If the officials would have credited the Cavs three points for James’ first free throw and a Varejao put back after James’ missed second free throw attempt, the game wouldn’t have gone to overtime. The Cavs would be 101-100 winners to even the East Finals at 2-2.

Cavs point man has fuzzy math and a misguided mouth

By On May 26, 2009 · 146 Comments

Cleveland point guard Mo Williams guaranteed his team will win the Eastern Conference Finals against Orlando because he said two of the next three games are in Cleveland and he can’t see his team losing two games at home.
Maybe Williams should have waited to make his prognostication after Game 4 tonight in Orlando because last I checked, the Magic host two of the next three games in their Amway Arena, where the Cavs are 0-3 this season and haven’t won since February of last year. And with a 2-1 series lead, Orlando can use its actual home court advantage to grab the two victories needed to advance to the NBA Finals.

Chris Brown resurfaces with Usher, Dwyane Wade, Chris Tucker and Lil’ Wayne

The Lakers aren’t the only NBA team that attracts celebrities.
Stars came out in droves Sunday for Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals featuring the Magic and Cavaliers in Orlando’s Amway Arena.
Tiger Woods showed up on Amway’s Jumbotron early in the game. Then, right after halftime, Grammy Award winning R&B singer Usher walked to his courtside seat across from the Magic’s team bench. A minute and a half later, hip hop heartthrob-turned-bad boy Chris Brown was escorted to a spot two seats away from Usher followed closely behind by Rush Hour funnyman Chris Tucker and Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade and a couple friends to fill in the rest of the instant celebrity row. Utah forward Carlos Boozer was already seated earlier in the game and was a section over from the bunch under the basket near the Magic’s bench.

Don’t count out the Magic, ball in Orlando’s court

By On May 23, 2009 · 78 Comments

Orlando coach Jeff Van Gundy blamed himself and center Dwight Howard laid his head in his hand as they fielded the press’ questions about a 1-point loss to Cleveland after LeBron James’ buzzer-beating 3-pointer to tie the Eastern Conference Finals series at 1-1.
Sure, Van Gundy could have had a defender contest the Mo Williams inbound pass that led to James’ last second shot and he could have put two men on LeBron.
But the Magic shouldn’t be second-guessing themselves. After all, the Cavs were the ones in need of a little magic after giving up double-digit leads at home in Game 1 and 2 and they relied on a miraculous last second shot from James to keep Orlando from returning home with a 2-0 series lead.

Is the Celtics/Magic game pointless?

By On May 18, 2009 · 92 Comments

Does it really matter which team is victorious in Game 7 of the Celtics/Magic series?
Unless you’re a fan of the teams, not really. Regardless of who wins tonight, the winner will eventually join the loser on the couch for the NBA Finals.
That’s because whether Boston or Orlando advances to the Eastern Conference Finals later this week, the Cleveland Cavaliers are going to roll over them within five games.
