NBA - Top 10

Miller - 52 points

Kimi — Sun, 31 Jan 2010 16:56:08 +0000

Andre Miller missed badly on his first shot of the game. That was about the only thing that went wrong for Portland’s point guard.

Miller scored a career-high 52 points, including 25 in the fourth quarter and overtime, and Juwan Howard hit a jumper with 44.8 seconds left to lift the Trail Blazers past the Dallas Mavericks 114-112 Saturday night.

On Portland’s second possession of the game, Miller’s 15-foot jumper missed the rim the completely and hit the backboard. That was one of his few misfires as Miller finished 22 of 31 from the floor and 7 of 8 from the foul line.

“I just wanted to stay aggressive,” Miller said. “I didn’t look at it as scoring the ball, but just going out and making plays and being the point guard. The shots came and since they were going in, I kept shooting.”

Miller fell two points shy of the Portland team record set by Damon Stoudamire. Milwaukee rookie Brandon Jennings has the most points in an NBA game this season with 55 on Nov. 14.

Denver’s Carmelo Anthony had the previous 50-point game in the NBA, scoring 50 against the New York Knicks on Nov. 27.

Miller came in averaging 12.6 points per game and his season high had been 28.

Nets beat Clippers

Kimi — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 08:17:47 +0000

Kris Humphries scored a career-high 25 points and the New Jersey Nets avoided the worst 44-game start in NBA history with a 103-87 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday night.

The Nets (4-40) were tied with the 1993-94 Dallas Mavericks (3-40) for the NBA’s worst record after 43 games and all they had to do was lose another to secure another mark in this miserable season that opened with a league-record 18 straight losses.

It didn’t happen although the Nets managed to blow a 16-point first-half lead in the third quarter before winning for the first time in 2010.

New Jersey snapped an 11-game losing streak, their third double-digit losing skid of the season. If you find any NBA team playing well in spite of poor ranking you have the chance of winning the bet on online betting sites. Most important sports betting tip is that the key to winning is how you approach betting in general.

2nd in row for Wizards

Kimi — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 16:02:41 +0000

The world didn’t come to a standstill when Gilbert Arenas was suspended indefinitely by the NBA, the season wasn’t canceled when he pleaded guilty to a felony. The Washington Wizards have to continue to show up for games and play them, and they’re actually doing OK.

Washington beat the Portland Trail Blazers 97-92 on Monday, giving the team a two-game winning streak for only the fourth time this season. There was a blowout loss at Cleveland hours after Arenas’ suspension was announced Jan. 6, but since then the Wizards are 3-4 and haven’t dropped a game by more than 12 points.

“We’re just trying to find a cure,” said captain Antawn Jamison, who scored 21 of his 28 points in the second half. “And the only cure we can find right now is to win. The more we win, the more we get things going in the right direction, the better this story turns out.

Top 10 Last Week

Great Duncan

Kimi — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 15:56:11 +0000

The San Antonio Spurs were finally able to take advantage of a big night from Tim Duncan. Duncan had 24 points and 12 rebounds and the Spurs halted the Milwaukee Bucks’ three-game winning streak with a 112-98 victory Monday night, getting their second blow out in as many games after an unusually lackluster start to the season. Duncan could hardly be blamed while San Antonio was 4-6: the Spurs had been 0-4 when their All-Star forward scored 20 or more. “We’ll win a lot more games if he scores 20. I’ll tell you that much,” Spurs guard Roger Mason said.
Ersan Illyasova led Milwaukee with 20 points. Brandon Jennings scored 12— held well below his rookie-leading average of 25.3 points per game—and Michael Redd scored four points off the bench in his first action in nine games because of a knee injury.
San Antonio’s bench was better. Matt Bonner had 23 points and the Spurs won consecutive games for only the second time this season. Bonner was 6-of-8 from behind the arc, George Hillscored 14 and Mason had 11 as San Antonio’s reserves outscored its starting five.

Cavaliers and Celtics

Kimi — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 15:58:28 +0000

Shaquille O’Neal spent his final day of free time where any super hero would hang out.
He went to Disney World. Now Superman is preparing for his Cleveland Cavaliers debut against the Boston Celtics on Tuesday night in one of the league’s most heated rivalries. The two teams that open the season in the East could also be the final two teams remaining in the conference finals—though defending Eastern Conference champion Orlando may differ with that prediction. “You can’t win the championship winning the first game. You still have to play all 82 and go through the postseason,” O’Neal said. “But you always want to try and get off to a great start.”

With a day off on Sunday, O’Neal took his family to Disney for one final day of fun. From now until the playoffs, his quest is to win the Cavaliers’ first championship in franchise history.
Cleveland traded for O’Neal for games like this against Kevin Garnett and the Celtics, who eliminated the Cavs in the playoffs two years ago on their way to their first NBA championship in 12 seasons.
That heated series launched a feud that boiled all last season. It bubbled up in last week’s preseason game in Columbus, when the Cavs’ Mo Williams was spun to the ground near the end of the first half. He got up and threw an elbow into the chest of Boston’s Shelden Williams, who shoved back before order was quickly restored.

Iverson’s Sad Move and Yet Another

Kimi — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 16:00:16 +0000

Such a bad season, were the thoughts of ex-Denver player, Allen Iverson. He initially felt the move to Detroit would be a good shift, and make things look better for his career. He also believed then that his dream to be a part of the championship team would come true, but he slowly realized that being traded to Detroit was having adverse effects to his career.

Since he was drafted after his college years, as a rookie player, he has always been in the starting lineup for all the games he had played, eight hundred twenty four out of eight hundred twenty nine games. As a scoring player, he is considered the “Go To Guy”. Considered one of the most important players of the team, critical shots have always been given to him, to make the final shot. There was even a season, when he played for Philadelphia Seventy Sixers and won the top most individual award in the NBA league as MVP, Most Valuable Player.

In a frank and honest interview with Allen Iverson, he voiced out his sentiments regarding his trade to another team.

Initially, when the trade was made, he was promised he would be in the starting lineup. Unfortunately, that has not been the case. What is happening is that he is considered a ‘coming off the bench’ player, or the ‘sixth man’ instead.

He was quoted saying that the team promised that he would be in the starting five, and was even told that they would never disrespect him and his career. Sad to say though, he is coming off the bench now behind Rip. He was even told that if he didn’t come off the bench, his teammates would not cooperate on set place and game plan. As soon as he got the message, he felt really low and considered this the worst career move he has even done.

Now having signed up with Memphis for a one year contract, he feels that although this is a lose-lose situation, he will be doing his best to win games with the team.
