Jay, Big Money, and GG give some thoughts and predictions about the NBA Playoffs.
Roundball Soundoff – A Look Around The League: Western Conference
After looking at the Eastern Conference earlier in the week, Jay takes a look at the Western Conference.
Roundball Soundoff Presents: Your 2012-2013 NBA Preview (Western Conference)
Earlier this week, Jay previewed the Eastern Conference (with a surprise pick to come out of the East). If you thought his Eastern Conference finals pick was a surprise, his Western Conference pick is an even bigger surprise. By the way, also check out Jay’s New York Knicks podcast . Western Conference Preview Oklahoma City Thunder – I do not like the Harden trade for this season. The Thunder might be better in the long run, but when you are so close to a title, why mess with it? Kevin […]
Roundball Soundoff – Poptificating On The Upcoming NBA Season
This is the first of three upcoming posts about the 2012-2013 NBA season. Because of the Olympics, it feels like the season just ended . For hoop fans, this is great. We had a two and a half month break with no basketball and now they’re back at it. In our first part of a three-part Popblerd NBA Preview, I sent off questions to our NBA guy Jay and our editor-in-chief, Big Money Mike. We had quite the discussion about the upcoming season. Before we get to […]
Roundball Soundoff – Team USA’s Gold Medal Caps An Insane Basketball Season
As a NBA enthusiast (I’m not really a college basketball fan, like at all), I feel greedy every four years. After the ups and downs of the NBA season, which is now the best soap opera going on today (sorry WWE and other soap operas), you get another month of high quality hoops ( well, except for 2004 ). You take what is essentially an All-NBA All-Star team and watch them do battle with international teams. It’s like drugs for NBA fans. The NBA […]
Roundball Soundoff – Ranking Team USA Basketball Since The “Dream Team”
Internet: Did you hear Kobe Bryant say that Team USA can beat the Dream Team? He’s an idiot! They could never win! Me: What did you expect him to say? That they would lose? Yep, that would be a great way to market Olympic basketball this summer! And while we would truly never know what would happen, I think we can make some serious educated guesses. It’s hard to rank players against each other because the game seems to change […]
Roundball Soundoff – The Miami Heat Get “Desperate”
After game three of the NBA Finals, a reporter asked Dwyane Wade if the Miami Heat would rather be behind in games because they seem to play better and rally around their defense. Wade simply said, “No.” But when he defined why they go on spurts when down, he called it desperation. When you’re down by 10, if you don’t get desperate, you can let the game get away from you. In the third quarter, the Thunder took a one-point […]
The Popblerd Staff Predicts The NBA Finals 2012
Before the season, if you predicted that the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Miami Heat would meet in the finals, not too many people would’ve disagreed with you. Derrick Rose fans may have given you the side-eye. Kobe Bryant himself may have waved you off. But it was probably the most predicted finals before the season started. Personally, I wanted to see Miami vs. the LA Lakers simply because I wanted to see the LBJ/Kobe dynamic, but this finals would’ve […]
Roundball Soundoff’s Midseason Report Card Part Two: The Western Conference
Check out the first part of our midseason report card here , and make sure you’re checking out Jay’s NY Knicks podcast. Oklahoma City Thunder: A+: Having the best record in the league sure silenced the whole ‘Westbrook vs. Durant power struggle’. Reggie Jackson seamlessly filled Eric Maynors shoes after his season ending injury and Harden is making a strong case for 6th man of the year. The only concern in OKC right now is the fact that their starting center, Kendrick Perkins, looks 37 […]
