Golden State.
Oh yeah, that is a mouthful. Think of all the recent titles Golden State has achieved. Uh, think of any titles…how about Conference titles? No? Uh, think of all the good parking places in their parking lot. You can park your car right beside the stadium.
How about all the tremendous players on their roster. Let’s see, there is…um, there is… Don’t they have Baron Davis? He left? Chose to go to the Clippers? He chose to go …read more

Danny Granger is for real. There, it is out there for everyone to see and if you have not seen this guy play then you are missing one heck of a player.
My first introduction to Danny Granger was last year when Granger was scoring at will against my Pistons. Now Indiana had nobody on their team including this Granger guy and yet, there he was driving and scoring, pulling up and shooting, draining free throws and just being an offensive pest.
This year Danny made the All …read more

Superman Dwight Howard had a monster game of 21 points and 20 rebounds. So how do the Pacers beat the Magic?
Pacers 107, Magic 102
With Danny Granger!
Maybe Danny needs a nickname like Superman has?
But, wait a minute; did Orlando just have a bad game?
First off, the Magic had some incredible stats. Stats, of course, do not mean anything when they only count wins.
Orlando’s Dwight Howard had 21 points and 20 rebounds, but made just five of 12 free throws. Hedo Turkoglu had 20 points and 11 assists and J.J. Redick …read more

Elton Brand dunking

Philadelphia was down 38 – 13.
Past 76er teams would have quit. We are going to lose, so let’s go home.
But they did not quit and came back to win the game 94 – 92 over the Indiana Pacers. Elton Brand had 15 rebounds and Thaddeus Young had 25 points.
“It was a great comeback by Philadelphia,” Indiana coach Jim O’Brien said. “Sometimes you get too big a lead early in the game — and the NBA is a game of momentum shifts.”

Man, oh man. What is Isiah thinking now? He talks about winning championships in New York. He talks about staying and winning with some of the guys he has now.
What is he thinking?
Now as a long time Piston fan there is a soft spot in my heart for Isiah. He came to the Pistons as a small guard leaving Indiana early. He talked about winning championships. Isiah won championships.
Almost immediately he made the team better back then. He was full of fire and felt unstoppable. Every year he …read more
