Wed, 25 Jun 2008 23:53:00 GMT

The 2008 Celtics-Lakers NBA finals featured two great straight-from-high-school athletes: Kobe Bryant and Kevin Garnett. The NBA benefits from a host of other players drafted straight from high school, such as LeBron James, Dwight Howard, Tracy McGrady, Amare Stoudemire, and Tyson Chandler.

Think back to basketball season, when the criticism of Amare Stoudemire’s effort and defense (or lack thereof) got pretty thick. He normally responded with a performance that got people mentioning him as an MVP candidate. Well, the criticism of the Diamondbacks’ offense (or lack thereof) has been knee deep for the better part of a [...]

Ballin': Robert Horry Strikes Again - Without Scoring (The Big Lead)

Fri, 16 May 2008 14:55:10 GMT

Last year, Robert Horry memorably shoulder-checked Steve Nash out of bounds, triggering a series of events that got Amare Stoudemire suspended for the next game, helping the Spurs eliminate the Suns in a series San Antonio probably should have lost. Last night, Horry attempted to set a pick on David West from behind - whether [...]

Orlando Magic News for May 8th: Dwight Howard Selected to the All-NBA First Team (Third Quarter Collapse)

Thu, 08 May 2008 20:24:00 GMT

Dwight Howard joined Kevin Garnett, LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, and Chris Paul on the All-NBA First Team . Dwight was a Third-Teamer last year, so it's nice to see him make the leap. It's also nice to see that he finished ahead of Amare Stoudemire of Phoenix, who went nova after the Suns acquired Shaquille O'Neal. But Dwight dominated at center all year, and Amare dominated at...
