May 23, 2010 by Joel Huerto Leave a Comment

May 21, 2010 by Joel Huerto Leave a Comment

When a player is feeling good about his game, he tends to do a lot of talking. Paul Pierce must be feeling good about his game lately because he’s making a lot of noise.

CARTER: ‘I’VE HAD A GREAT CAREER’

May 19, 2010 by Joel Huerto Leave a Comment

Ten years ago, Vince Carter had the whole NBA world spinning like a 360 windmill. He exploded onto the scene with a sensational rookie season in 1999 as a member of the Toronto Raptors and then became known as “Half Man, Half Amazing” (thanks Shaq!) with his mind-blowing performance in the slam dunk contest at … [Read more…]

BOSTON ‘D’ IS HOWARD’S KRYPTONITE

May 18, 2010 by Joel Huerto Leave a Comment

Kendrick Perkins got the initial assignment on Dwight Howard and established a physical tone. Then, when Perkins needed a break, Rasheed Wallace came in and applied an even tighter grip on Howard. Perkins and Wallace, along with forward Glenn Davis, took turns in harassing Howard into a 3-for-10 night shooting from the field and held … [Read more…]

CELTICS TURN SUPERMAN TO SUPERBAD

May 17, 2010 by Joel Huerto Leave a Comment

During halftime of Game 1 of the 2010 Eastern Conference finals on Sunday, ABC aired a segment in which Dwight Howard as Clark Kent interviews Dwight Howard as Superman.

GARNETT IS CELTICS’ MEAL TICKET

May 14, 2010 by Joel Huerto 1 Comment

Age, injuries and gravity may have taken away a big chunk of Kevin Garnett’s physical attributes, but they definitely haven’t affected his mind or his heart. He may not be as quick nor as strong as he was when he was an MVP in Minnesota, and he certainly doesn’t rebound nor defend like he used … [Read more…]

LEWIS: ‘WE’RE BETTER THAN LAST YEAR’

May 10, 2010 by Joel Huerto Leave a Comment

When Rashard Lewis was asked where he stands in terms of scoring option on the Orlando Magic, he said he’s currently No. 4 trying to work his way up to No. 3.

LITTLE MAGIC IS ORLANDO’S BIG PLAYER

April 25, 2010 by Joel Huerto Leave a Comment

Jameer Nelson is on a mission. His poor performance in the 2009 NBA Finals against the L.A. Lakers has fueled his desire to get back to the Finals and atone for his disappointment. In fairness to Nelson, he wasn’t healthy during the Finals and it showed. He failed to cover Derek Fisher late in Game … [Read more…]
