With the lockout now official, fans have nothing more to do for awhile but reminisce on what was. With that in mind, it sure was nice that 2010-11 was such a fascinating season. Highlights & Other Notable Happenings from 2010-11: * Of course, the Dallas Mavericks getting revenge. Many people had written them off not long after their collapse in 2006 to Miami, so it just was so appropriate that the two teams faced off again in an epic and […]

Roundball Soundoff Extra: Jay Picks the Underachievers
So the 2010-11 season has finally come to an end. If the NBA is going to miss part of all of a season, and it’s looking like that will be the case , then I’m glad our last taste of NBA action for a while was a good one. The season began months before any games were played with this along with a number of other big names switching teams such as Stoudemire, Boozer, and Bosh. We even got our first truly hated team since the Bad Boy Pistons with this . Things […]
Roundball Soundoff 3/21/11: James Dolan Can Suck It
– Since the Carmelo trade the Knicks are 1-6 against below .500 teams and 6-2 against above .500 teams.

Thank you James Dolan. – People are complaining that the NBA is becoming too top-heavy. Look at seeds 5-8 in the west. If you’re, say, the Lakers do you […]
Roundball Soundoff 2/7/10: Showin’ Some All-Star Love
* The All-Star teams are now official. Thankfully, Kevin Love was finally added to replace the injured Yao Ming, who obviously was voted in because of the large numbers of Chinese voters (Yao is the poster boy for why the All-Stars shouldn’t be determined primarily by the fans). Did you think anyone else got snubbed? Personally, though I like Kevin Garnett and the Celtics, I think Carlos Boozer deserved a selection this year. Three All-Stars is enough for the Celts, […]
Roundball Soundoff 1/31/11: The Heat Index?
As a Knicks fan this season is so frustrating. We’ll beat teams like the Spurs and Heat but lose to the Kings and Cavs. I’d still take this season over the last 8 but this emotional rollercoaster of a season is draining. The Clippers have looked great in 2011. They dug too big a hole to make the playoffs this year but I’m already looking forward to seeing this team in the postseason in 2012. Who are your picks for […]
