The Memphis Grizzlies advanced to the finals of the Western Conference, and the Miami Heat moved on to the finals of the Eastern Conference. Here's a recap of Wednesday night's action in the NBA: Memphis Grizzlies 88, Oklahoma City Thunder 84 Zach Randolph had 28 points and 14 rebounds and Mike Conley scored 13 points and dished out 11 assists, as the Memphis Grizzlies upset the Oklahoma City Thun

2 free agents. 2 guards. Similar strengths. Vast differences. Well traveled. Seen as spark plugs and yet enigma's as well. I am speaking of Knicks guard J.R. Smith and Bulls guard Nate Robinson. Coming into the playoffs it was Smith whose value was on the high considering he was the 6th man of the year and seemingly had finally grown up...

I must admit I am surprised how poorly the Knicks have played the last 2 games vs the Indiana Pacers. Thanks to 2 lousy performances the Knicks find themselves in the worst position of all. 1 more loss means the season is over and the summer and questions begin...

To say that the Chicago Bulls had a crappy night last night would be an understatement. They shot 25% from the field and had 42 points after three quarters, less than the Miami Heat had at halftime. Joel Anthony PLAYED for the Heat, that's how far down the Bulls were. Yet, perhaps the worst moment in the game came when Bulls guard Marquis Teague tipped a ball into his own basket.

With Knicks head coach Mike Woodson claiming he will cut back on minutes played by J.R. Smith should he not shake his shooting woes, the Knicks expect to get back, in limited fashion they say forward Amare Stoudemire who has been out since surgery on his knee on March 7th...

For some reason-read that as TV makes the schedules, there are no NBA playoff games for the 1st time since the post season began. The Knicks-Pacers series as well as the Grizzlies-Thunder series in fact takes off until Saturday when the venues change...

Many of us Knick fans have hopes, long shot that it may be, that a title is coming to New York courtesy of the NY Knicks. However the chances of that get slimmer with every 3 for 17 shooting performance by J.R. Smith. Now we may have our answers why Smith has shot the ball so poorly and he has been acting like a 3 year old instead of an adult...

Every game is different in sports at any level, during any regular season and during any playoff series in any sport.  But with the Knicks, we learned during Game 2 vs. the Pacers that this really shouldn't be that hard.  Just go with the right game plan and the games won't actually be THAT different, and New York beats most teams in the NBA.  And pretty easily.

If you are P.J. Carlesimo you can't feel all bad if his former team lands Phil Jackson can you? I mean replaced by the all time winningest coach in basketball history if Jackson takes the Nets millions. 1 day after showing P.J. the door the Brooklyn Nets have started the process of finding the biggest name they can to replace Carlesimo...

Blown away! Shocked! Amazed! Those are just a few thoughts on what has taken place in Cleveland Cavalier land. Cavs owner Dan Gilbert admitted, time and again and again that he should never have fired former coach Mike Brown, then gave him 20 millions dollars in "I am sorry money" and hired Brown back...

If you scoffed at the Celtics struggles in the 2nd half of game 1, well game 2 will give you plenty more material to critique them on. The Celts scored only 25 points in the 2nd half of game 1, lost a half time lead, and the game. Tuesday night at noisy madison Square Garden the Celts outdid themselves, setting a new franchise record for least points in a half, this time only 23 in the last 24 min
