ONE: It’s a shame that the first Sunday Six Pack of the year has to be written in such depressing circumstances. Our Aussie NBA hero has once again gone down with a serious injury, this time as fractured left ankle. “It’s like someone has a voodoo doll of me and is putting pins in it”, [...]

A weekly wrap of the things you should know in basketball.
* This is too good. J.R. Smith’s sister brawls during a game in China.
* Check out these off-air doozies from the TNT crew – Charles Barkley, Reggie Miller and Kevin Harlan. My favourite; Charles calls his new gig as Weight Watchers spokesman “the greatest [...]

A weekly wrap of the things you should know in basketball.
* I’ve linked to these guys before, but this one’s unreal. A Taiwanese animation recaps the Monta Ellis sexting scandal.
* The Miami Heat have released a 2011-2012 introduction video set to the tune of Kanye West’s “All of the Lights”. If you want a [...]

3 votes – Kevin Garnett. Call me crazy, but this might have been KGs best ever game as a Celtic. It was one of his most dominant and complete playoff games ever. He was scoring inside, outside, chasing rebounds like he was in his prime, defending superbly (just look at Bosh’s line), and keyed the [...]

I am a Celtics guy so I don’t dislike Kevin Garnett. In fact, I love what he brings to the floor. But I can’t [...]

I didn’t get to see Game 7 live. One of the tragedies of these 2010 NBA Finals has been the scheduling – in the Land Downunder, not one Finals game was played on a Saturday or a Sunday. Very frustrating. I followed the game on the play-by-play, and later that afternoon I read all the [...]

So the Boston Celtics are one win away from being crowned NBA Champions for 2010, and I absolutely expected this. I expected it because they are the hungrier team, the tougher team, the more balanced team. The better team.
Nothing epitomized that better than the first six minutes of the third quarter in this [...]

I’ve been trying to come up with a sentence that best summarizes Game 3 of this Finals, and I think I’ve got it…
A game the Boston Celtics absolutely would have won if they were playing anyone else but the Los Angeles Lakers.
That really is the only way I can sum up this game. There were [...]
