You’re a bit late to the party, Dwyane.

A weekly wrap of the things you should know in basketball.
* D-Wade and LeBron chillin’ at the beach.
* Nerlens Noel, the Kentucky ‘big man’ projected to be the first pick in the draft, weighed in at only 206 lbs at the draft combine in Chicago. (For comparison, Deron Williams weighs 209 lbs). Err, that’s [...]

Miami came out with a point to prove in the early going of game two, getting off to a red hot start and leading 18-2 after seven minutes of action. As always the Thunder bounced back and this was a closer game than it probably should have been down the stretch. Nonetheless we move on [...]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. LeBron James is the best damn player in the NBA. The way he commands attention on offense without skipping a beat defensively, is a testament to the hard work that’s gone in to developing this under appreciated and incredibly well balanced superstar.
Game 6 was all about [...]

Although I couldn’t see any way Indiana would be able to overcome the talents of Miami, I was suitably impressed with their efforts in a less than favourable matchup. Miami clearly weren’t at full strength after Chris Bosh went down with the abdominal strain, but LeBron James and Dwyane Wade were spectacular throughout the series, [...]

Hey, Indiana, thanks for making this series a little more exciting than we thought it’d be. But you can now pack your bags.

When this condensed NBA season tipped-off back in December of last year, every man and his dog had an opinion on how it would pan out for LeBron James and the Miami Heat. Whilst some were ready to dismiss LeBron as an all-time great due to his inability to produce in the clutch, others were [...]

“Resilient “is the best way I can sum up this performance by the Miami Heat. A tough win in a hostile environment after a heart-breaking loss. A game where the Heat only got 17 points from Lebron. A game where Dirk Nowitzki threatened to take over as he has done so many times this post-season. [...]

I watched the first three quarters of this game live yesterday, then, thinking Miami had it sealed up, put it on record to go do some work. Boy, was that a mistake.
When I finally got around to watching the rest of the game I realised a couple of things.
1) Miami still can’t close games with [...]

So it wasn’t the most memorable Finals game. The shooting was woeful (both teams shot below 40% from the field) and the pace was slow. In fact, for the first 45 minutes or so I thought it was one of the most boring games I’d seen all playoffs. Completely unremarkable in every way. But then [...]
