With four minutes remaining in the game between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Oklahoma City Thunder, the Cavaliers trailed by only four points. At that moment, Mo Williams was forced to toss a halfcourt prayer. Swish. A four-point game became a seven-point contest and the Thunder were never competitive again. (You can see video of the Mo Williams halfcourt shot at the end of this article.) Williams finished the game with 22 points, four rebounds and four assists. LeBron James, per usual, led the way for the Cavs. The King scored 44 points, pulled down seven rebounds, dished out six assists and swiped four steals. The Thunder put up a good fight for most of the game thanks to Kevin Durant’s 29 points and Jeff Green’s 26 points.... [Read more]

Could two undefeated teams meet in the Super Bowl? That dream is still alive after both the Indianapolis Colts and New Orleans Saints won on Sunday — improving their records to 13-0. The Saints had a close game against the Atlanta Falcons. Although the Falcons were without stars Matt Ryan and Michael Turner, they put up a great fight. It took Garrett Hartley field goal with under five minutes remaining to give the Saints a 26-23 victory. As usual, Drew Brees led the way with three touchdowns and 296 passing yards. The Colts also didn’t have an easy affair. With Denver Broncos wide receiver Brandon Marshall going off for an NFL record 21 catches for 200 yards and two touchdowns, the Colts needed Dallas Clark’s third touchdown... [Read more]

The Tennessee Titans have turned around their season — in large part thanks to Vince Young. The Titans were 0-6 before they gave the reins to Young. Since then, they’ve won five of their six games, with their only loss coming last week to the undefeated Indianapolis Colts. Heading into Week 14 of the 2009 NFL season, Young is questionable due to a knee injury. Although many in the organization believe that he’s iffy to play, Young thinks he will play — and there’s no reason to think he’s lying. On the season, Young is 107-for-175 for 1251 yards and six passing touchdowns. He also has 175 yards rushing and a rushing touchdown. He’s also limited his mistakes as he has only three interceptions and one lost... [Read more]

With about a quarter of the 2009-10 NBA season in the past, we have a good idea of who the best teams are in the league. Here’s a glimpse at the top ten teams at the moment: 1. Boston Celtics The Celtics are riding a ten-game winning streak and they are beating teams by about ten points per game on the season. Dominant. 2. Los Angeles Lakers The Lakers lost on Saturday night and Kobe Bryant is dealing with a broken finger. That said, they are still the championship favorites. 3. Orlando Magic The NBA Finals appearance last year wasn’t a fluke. But the Magic are going through growing pains while living with the expectations. 4. Atlanta Hawks No one really takes the Atlanta Hawks seriously but they are doing all they can to prove they... [Read more]

With the end of the regular season in sight, NFL teams are fighting for playoff positioning. Who are the best teams in the league? Here’s a look at our top ten: 1. Indianapolis Colts The Colts are talented, experienced and playing hard. 2. New Orleans Saints When it comes to offense, no one can touch the Saints. 3. Minnesota Vikings As long as Favre and Peterson are healthy, the Vikings will roll. 4. San Diego Chargers Are the Chargers for real? It’s tough to say for sure. 5.
