Gridiron gang: NBA stars who could play in the NFL

September 8, 2015 by Joel Huerto Leave a Comment

Basketball players have been referred to as the greatest athletes in the world. In the NBA, you see superbly conditioned athletes soar to the basket and throw down rim-rattling dunks or muscle past two or three defenders.

NBA’s best perimeter defenders

September 18, 2013 by Joel Huerto 1 Comment

The Glove. The nickname fit Gary Payton like Isotoners. He got his nickname “The Glove” when Payton’s cousin called him during the 1993 Western Conference Finals series against Phoenix and told him, “you’re holding Kevin Johnson like a baseball in a glove,” and the nickname was born. The only point guard ever to win the … [Read more…]

October 12, 2012 by Joel Huerto 2 Comments

After a second straight postseason where they lost in the second round of the Western Conference playoffs, the Los Angeles Lakers decided to go all in and make a run at a few more NBA titles.

Well, well, well. Just when you thought the obituary for the Los Angeles Lakers had already been written, here comes Steve Nash.

VIDEO: KD’S CLUTCH TREY VS. LAKERS

May 22, 2012 by Joel Huerto Leave a Comment

Kevin Durant’s Twitter handle is @KDTrey. The Oklahoma City superstar lived up to that name in a playoff game against the L.A. Lakers. With the game tied 98-98 and 40 seconds remaining in the game, Durant put on his MJ cap and lifted the Thunder to victory. He stepped into the passing lane and picked … [Read more…]

CLASSLESS ACTS BY BYNUM, ODOM

May 9, 2011 by Joel Huerto 4 Comments

Two words come to mind after the Lakers were swept by the Mavericks in the 2011 Western Conference semifinal series: heartless and classless. The Lakers, the two-time defending champions and the model franchise for the past three decades in the NBA, did not display the heart of champion nor the poise of a champion in … [Read more…]

NBA FINALS: LAKERS ‘D’ UP ON CELTICS

June 4, 2010 by Joel Huerto Leave a Comment

They stopped dribble penetration. They protected the paint. They rebounded the heck out of the ball. They took charges. They put a hand in the face of every shooter. They got to loose balls. And they took away the other team’s air space and made it a very uncomfortable night. If you think I’m referring … [Read more…]
