Tuesday night, Lebron James missed the starting lineup introductions for his Miami Heat.  The Heat was about to play the Cleveland Cavaliers in Cleveland.  It was the second time James would be introduced in Cleveland since he left to play for the Heat.  The second time, that is, if he hadn’t been hiding out in [...]

I enjoy playing poker.  It’s a lot of fun.  But I leave it there.  And if you’re like me, you’re not a big fan of making bets on things over which you have no control.  Of course, millions of people still do it.  Unfortunately, if you’re like Whiskey Tango owner, John Todora, you’re paying for [...]

I’m not exactly sure why it’s so much fun to slam the Miami Heat.   Check that, I do know.  It’s because while confidence in sports is admirable, arrogance without action is buffonery.  When a team or a coach or an organization puts out to the world that it’s better than everyone else, it better show [...]

Crygate.  That’s Erik Spoelstra’s word, not something made up by the media.  However, the furor around a report that members of the Miami Heat were crying (multiple times) after losing a few close games was entirely fabricated by the media.  Right.  According to NBC Sports:

It doesn’t matter if you’re 10 years old or a grown millionaire who just can’t seem to come up big in a clutch.  When the your peers find out that you’ve been crying about your problems and pointing fingers at everyone else, they’re probably going to pounce.  Such is the case with the Miami Heat [...]

This is what you’d typically expect from high priced prima donnas who find themselves in the unusual position of being losers.  Members of the Miami Heat broke down in their locker room after their fourth loss in a row, another buzzer beater that fell just short against Chicago; Bulls 87  Heat 86.  According to Yahoo [...]

Maybe you can figure this one out.  As you watch this video of Chris Bosh getting clipped in the nose by Carlos Boozer, how long do you think it takes Bosh to decided to take a flop?  Two, three full seconds?

Bosh obviously thought he had to do something to make up for a horrible 1-18 [...]

This is the ultimate example of how success breeds success.  The better you are at your craft, the more work and focus you put into it, the more success you’ll draw to yourself.

At least, that’s our story.  ‘Cause NOTHING truly explains this unbelievable basket Dwayne Wade made last night against the Kings.  We’d call it [...]

The Denver Nuggets handled the Memphis Grizzlies tonight in the Nuggets’ first game without superstar Carmelo Anthony 120-107.  Despite losing their  monster scorer and basketball poster boy to the New York Knicks, Denver scored 120 points for the ninth time this season.  According to Yahoo Sports:

“Our guys, when their backs are confronted with a difficult [...]

Basketball would be really easy if you didn’t have to dribble or avoid defenders in any way whatsoever.  At least that’s how Dwayne Wade and Lebron James made it look last night as the Miami Heat beat the Indiana Pacers 110-103.

Wade does his best impression of former soccer great Tony Meola as he launches the [...]
