The Tragedy For PG In LV

Friday was a great day for basketball fans, especially USA Basketball fans, because the USA team was having a team scrimmage before they set their hopes for the FIBA World Cup of Basketball. It was a very intense, hard fought out game until about midway through the 4th Quarter. Because there was no more game left. The scrimmage was called mid 4th Quarter because Indiana Pacers G/F Star Paul George suffered a gruesome injury that I and many others would rather not show to the public. George was trying to contest a James Harden fastbreak layup when he landed awkwardly. It looked like his foot got caught in the spacing between the floor and stanchion (thing that holds basket up) and most his whole leg was twisted in a very awkward and disturbing position. However, in the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas has stanchions are about 2 feet closer than the stanchions in most NBA Arenas including George's Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indiana, so he wasn't expecting the stanchion to be there when he landed.The injury was so bad that none of the players wanted to continue playing so the game was called. Later examinations determined that George had a fractured tibula-fibula. He had successful surgery on the leg yesterday but is expected to be sidelined from the NBA for a whole season. This is an even bigger blow now that Indiana lost G Lance Stephenson to the Charlotte Hornets via free agency. I would like to pay my respect to Paul George and George's family. I hope he has a speedy recovery and is back to the old Paul George ASAP. And lastly, the injury to George was very gruesome and disturbing and not very likable. I have chosen not to show any pictures, videos or any evidence of the injury because of how bad it was. I personally advise you not to look for any photographic evidence of the injury, especially for the younger viewers.

NBA Free Agency And Inactive Appology

Hey guys! I'm back! Before I start this post I just want to sincerely apologize for not having posted in a while. I've had a very busy Summer. And speaking of a very busy Summer, there has been a very busy Summer in the NBA as the 2014 NBA Free Agency is free flowing and isn't over. Here are some of the big names that have signed during the 2014 NBA Free Agency period:

LeBron James:

 The best player in the world is moving back to Cleveland. LeBron opted out of his Heat contract to return to his home state of Ohio to play for the Cavs who birthed him into the league for his first 7 years. The deal is for 2 years, with an option after year 1. Former Heat and Grizzlies sharpshooter Mike Miller elects to rejoin LBJ, but this time in Cleveland.

Carmelo Anthony:

Melo, after speculation to go to my Chicago Bulls, the LA Lakers, Houston Rockets and Dallas Mavericks among others, he decides to stay in New York and re-sign with the New York Knicks. The deal is for 5 years and $125M.

Chandler Parsons:

Continuing the Small Forward free agent talk, former Houston Rocket Chandler Parsons, who was let go by Houston in part of their search to get Melo or Chris Bosh, was later signed by the Dallas Mavericks. Houston didn't get Melo or Bosh, but did replace Parsons with former Wizards Forward Trevor Ariza.

Paul Pierce:

With Trevor Ariza on the move to Texas, the Wizards needed another SF to replace him. So they signed G/F Paul Pierce. "The Truth" signed a 2 year, $10M deal.

Chris Bosh:

Bosh, after speculation of signing with the Houston Rockets, elects to stay with the Miami Heat for 5 years and $118M.

Dwyane Wade:

D-Wade along with Bosh decides to re-sign with the Miami Heat. He signed a 2 year deal. Others to sign with Miami: F/C Josh McRoberts, F Danny Granger.

Gordon Hayward:

The young Jazz G/F Gordon Hayward was offered a sheet by the Charlotte Hornets for 4 years $63M but the offer sheet was matched by the Utah Jazz so Mr. Hayward will start next year in the Salt Lake City.

Pau Gasol:

The former Laker Forward to take his talents to the Windy City as he elects to go to the Chicago Bulls. Him, along with overseas phoneme Nikola Mirotic and Aaron Brooks signed with my Chicago Bulls.

That's everyone I can think of for now, but if you think of any more players, tell me in the comments section below. Thanks for your patience and sorry for the inconvenience. Bai!

The Spurs Defeat The Heat And Destroy The Three-Peat (Freestyle!)

The San Antonio Spurs defeated the Miami Heat 104-87 last night. That was the Spurs 4th win in a best of 7 series. Meaning that the San Antonio Spurs are the 2014 NBA Champions! The win last night lead to the Spurs 5th all-time Championship, last in 2007 against LeBron James' Cleveland Cavaliers. And the Miami Heat. After winning the last 2 NBA Championships, (including last year against the Spurs), and making to the Finals for 3 straight years. The Finals MVP was 22 year old Forward Kawhi Leonard. Leonard is the youngest Finals MVP since his teammate Tim Duncan when Mr. Fundamentals Timmy D won his first NBA Championship in 1999.

CONGRATS SPURS!!!

(P.S. I was rooting for the Spurs the whole time.)

How is he going to play 5 more years in the NBA?" Well I would hope that you were thinking something like that because then you'll learn something today. Derek Fisher is going to be the Head Coach of the New York Knicks.

Finals Rematch Heat @ Spurs But Why Spurs? (Hear Me Out Spurs Fans)

The Miami Heat and the San Antonio Spurs are coming back to the NBA Finals for the second straight year. Well, both teams I should say because the Heat have made the Finals for 4 straight years (including this year) with 2 championships (and counting) along the way. The Spurs beat the Oklahoma City Thunder in 6 games. And this is the reason I say Why Spurs? Why 6 games? If it was 7 games, it would've been a better series, and  we wouldn't have to wait 4 days to see more basketball. Well, the fact of the matter is that the Spurs and Heat are doing great these Playoffs and I want to congratulate both of them and wish them the best in the NBA Finals (except for the Heat, LET'S GO SPURS!!!!!)

Ex Microsoft CEO Ballmer Buys Clippers

Reported first by the LA Times and then clarified by ESPN earlier today. Former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer won the bid for the Los Angeles Clippers ownership role. His bid was an astounding 2 billion dollars! Other offers were 1.6 billion dollars from a group led by David Geffen but the legendary Magic Johnson was part of it. Another bid was 1.2 billion led by Tony Ressler and Steve Karsh but included newly retired Grant Hill in the group.

GSW Splash Brother Steph Curry Wins Kia NBA Community Assist Award

Hey guys! Although Clippers Guard Chris Paul may have been the league's best assist man on the court, today Warriors Guard Steph Curry won the Kia Community Assist Seasonlong Award. Steph was 6th in APG (Assists Per Game) this Regular Season with 8.5 dimes a game but stepped up off the court to win an award that most people would love to have on their record. This might be great and all, but I bet there's still one more thing that he wants on his record. An NBA Championship.

And speaking of the Grizzlies, and Head Coaches, former Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins was asked by the LA Lakers for a coaching spot. He, fellow LA Laker, and great rebounder, Kurt Rambis are among the ones who have been interviewed by LA.

Nets D-Will Needs Surgery On Both Ankles (Nets Fans Don't Read This)

Brooklyn Nets Guard Deron Williams needs surgery on both of his ankles. The operation will be performed next week. In his right ankle, he will have a bone chip removed and on his left ankle bone spurs (which is weird because he plays for the Nets, not the Spurs) removed. I have not heard of him being scratched from the opening day lineup, however it is very likely.

Sorry, Nets fans :(

Cavs Get The Number 1 (Teehee :D!) Pick In The Draft... Again!!!

The Cleveland Cavaliers received the 1st pick in the 2014 NBA Draft. The Cavs will get the 1st pick in the Draft for the 2nd straight year. Last year, they shocked everybody by drafting Canadian Anthony Bennett 1st overall, and he didn't pan out so well in his rookie season. This year, they might continue the north of the border swing by drafting Forward Andrew Wiggins from Kansas. Also, the Cavs are in need of a big man so they may go with Wiggins' former Kansas teammate C Joel Embiid. However, they may also draft another one of elite players Forward Jabari Parker from Duke. Or they might just pick someone else, and surprise us like they did last year.


WHO DO YOU THINK THEY SHOULD DRAFT???

(Tell me in the comments section below and/or on the poll that is on the side)

P. S. The Cavs only had a 1.7% chance (out of a 25.0% chance) of getting the #1 pick.

With The 2nd Round Of The Playoffs Finished, We're On To The Conference Finals

The 2014 NBA Playoffs were off to a "blazing" start (Just coincidence to the Blazers). The 1st Round was one of the best in NBA history and the 2nd wasn't as exciting but it's the NBA. You know, "Where Amazing Happens", especially in the Playoffs. It's the Conference Finals now and the teams that are still alive an fighting for an NBA Championship under their belt, are probably who you'd expect. In the East, it's #2 seed Miami Heat @ #1 seed Indiana Pacers, which by the way, is going to start like right now on ABC. In the West,  it's #2 seed Oklahoma City Thunder @ #1 seed San Antonio Spurs which is tomorrow at 9 ET (eastern time) on TNT. For game-by-game info and stats go to NBA.com or the NBA.com bracket

Steve Kerr Signs A Five-Year Deal To Coach... The Golden State Warriors!

Former Bulls/Cavaliers Guard Steve Kerr signed a five-year deal (as a Head Coach) with the Golden State Warriors. If you didn't already know, Golden State fired previous Head Coach Mark Jackson. I think everyone was surprised about that, including Mark Jackson himself. Also, many were surprised that Steve Kerr did not sign with the New York Knicks after they fired previous Head Coach Mike Woodson. The Knicks showed a lot of interest in Kerr, but sadly for the Knicks, he signed with the Warriors. 

Lastly, I think that the Knicks should sign former Knickerbocker himself, one of the NBA's greatest passers EVER, former Golden State Warriors Head Coach, Mark Jackson.

Shake4ndBake

Hey guys! This is about another Youtuber! If you saw my last post on my other blog, I said that I would possibly write about a Youtuber on this blog. And I am. So the Youtuber that I'm writing about is... DRUMROLL PLEASE... Shake4ndBake (AKA Shake and Bake). He's a Youtuber of not only NBA 2K but also Outlast Whistleblower, MLB The Show 14 and much more. He even made his own PC version of NBA 2K MyTeam called MyTeam 2.0! He is an awesome Youtuber and is really worth it to watch him. But before I leave, as always, I need to show you one of Shake4ndBake's traditions. He is known for his iced tea. He drinks it as a good luck charm and might even get a little to crazy with it sometimes. Here's a video (link) to show you his crazy side.

My blog has been tweeted and shown on the MSG (Madison Square Garden) screen thanks to my brother. I will try to write a LOT more on my secondary blog so the pageviews can go up. Later guys!

Probably The Best Playoff Round Ever Finally Comes To An End

Hey guys! The first round of the 2014 NBA Playoffs have ended, and not so much on a good note. My favorite team is the Chicago Bulls, and sadly they lost to the Washington Wizards in 5 games. The rest of the NBA Playoffs have included 5 Game 7's a game-winner by the young Superstar in Portland, South Beach domination (as usual) and a sad series (and year) for Chicago fans.  I wasn't very descriptive in the end, but I'll but a link to the NBA Playoffs Bracket via NBA.com

NBA 2K14 MyTeam: Ruby Iggy

Hey guys! I have a NBA 2K14 locker code for Ruby Andre Iguodala MyTeam. I don't know if it works for Current Gen (PS3/XBOX 360) but I know that it works for Next Gen (PS4/XBOX ONE). So, as I said, this locker code gives you a Ruby Andre Iguodala for NBA 2K14 MyTeam. This is where the importance comes: This NBA 2K14 locker code expires when the Golden State Warriors are eliminated from the 2014 NBA Playoffs (in real life). Right now the Warriors are tied 1-1 in their First Round playoff series against the Los Angeles Clippers. Here's what you've been waiting for... the code. Drum roll please! The locker code is #IGGY9NBAPLAYOFFS (including all caps, one word, and the hashtag or #)

My CRAZY Shot #Avery Bradley

Hey guys! sorry I haven't posted in a while, especially with the playoffs in session but I'll probably just write about the end of series. Anyway, back on topic. I made probably the GREATEST shot of my career. So, here's how it went down. I was playing a free-for-all with my friends Mickey (Mi-Kee) and Ajax. In the game I was losing badly. Ajax was winning with 10 points, Mickey was in second with 5 points and I only had 2 points :( (SOB SOB). So then I got the ball and was posting up Ajax. Mickey came out of nowhere and stripped the ball from me. So I grabbed the ball and I was almost out of bounds so I just threw it up OVER THE BACKBOARD and it swished in!!! And I say #Avery Bradley (link) because he made a crazy shot just like it.

Miami Heat @ Indiana Pacers: A Rivalry Renewed

The Miami Heat and the Indiana Pacers are HUGE rivals. They're also 2 of the best teams not only in the Eastern Conference but in the NBA. They're also the top 2 seeds in the East (the Pacers are ahead by 2 games on the Heat in the standings). That's why their game tonight at 8:00 pm ET on ESPN is a very crucial game for 1 the best record in the East and 2 home-felid advantage for the playoffs.

Bulls And Lakers Great Joins Knicks: But Who Is It?

11 time NBA Champion (all as a coach) the "Zen Master" Phil Jackson is the New York Knicks new President of Basketball Operations. He signed a 5 year-60 million dollar contact with New York, but will this help, or will it just be a waste of time and money? I mean, the Knicks are doing good as of late, but if the season were to end today, they wouldn't be in the playoffs. And the Knicks signed Jackson as a President, not a coach. The "Zen Master" won 11 NBA Championships, but they were all as a coach. Is this a good decision? Will this help or harm the Knicks? You tell me what you think in the comments section.

Are Some Of The Worst Teams Some Of The Most Storied Franchises?

Hey guys! I just realized that the Boston Celtics Los Angeles Lakers and the New York Knicks are probably 3 of the worst teams in the NBA this year. I also realized that the Boston Celtics, Los Angeles Lakers and the New York Knicks had some of the best historic teams and are currently known as good teams for that. Definitely not for their current success. I mean, the Celtics had Larry Bird, Kevin McHale and Bill Russell, just to name a few. The Lakers had Magic Johnson, Jerry West, Wilt Chamberlain and much more. And finally, the Knicks had Walt Frazier, Earl Monroe and Patrick Ewing. I would definitely want those people on my team. And now look at the current teams. They all have superstars. Celts with Rajon Rondo (and Jeff Green) LA with Kobe (He is out) and New York with Melo. So why are they doing so bad? I don't know. You tell me in the comments section about what you think.

Taj Gibson Hot Streak Continues As He And Bulls Push Pass The Lakers (And 100th Post!)

The Chicago Bulls played the Los Angeles Lakers last night and won 102-100 in Overtime. Bulls Forward Taj Gibson (someone who I have a picture of on the blog) had the game-winning layup at the buzzer. Taj, who has been one of the better (if not the best) player on the bench of the Chicago Bulls team. With all of the amazing slams and clutch shots this just adds to his 2013-2014 season highlight reel. (P.S. This is my 100th post!!!)

Knicks And Nets Win In 2 Great Finishes

The New York Knicks and the Brooklyn Nets both won yesterday in some great games. The Knicks won 105-101 against the San Antonio Spurs. Iman Shumphert was the main beneficiary with a career high 27 points for New York. Also, the Nets won in a close game. They won 95-93 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. They won on a game-winning fadeaway jumper by none other than... Joe Johnson! A great night for New York basketball fans last night against some tough Western Conference teams.
