A weekly wrap of the things you should know in basketball.
* Do you remember ‘Thunder’ Dan Majerle? Well, here he is at a baseball game randomly catching a ‘ground rule double’. And then he strikes a pose. Classic.
* After their Game 7 win over the Grizzlies, the Clippers snatch a giant picture of Chris [...]

Holy s**t! Those were my first words this morning when I logged on and saw that the Clippers had beaten Memphis in this Game 7 slugfest. With nagging injuries to Paul and Griffin, I gave them no shot to emerge from this series. But I suppose the lesson to be learned here is to never [...]

Another big day on the playoff calendar, which saw an epic performance on Broadway, and three teams – Atlanta, Chicago and Denver – move to the brink of elimination.

Let’s get to it. [...]

* I’m curious to see how the Chicago Bulls plan on keeping Taj Gibson. As a restricted free agent next season, if he can’t agree to an extension with the Bulls during the year then he’ll be free to accept offers from other teams in July 2013 [...]

“I don’t do treatment. I hate training rooms.”
- Portland’s Raymond Felton, when asked what kind of treatment he’d been receiving on his Achilles injury.
That’s got to be a contender for Quote of the Year, no?
“Either that or blow it in the club.”
