Roundball Soundoff 4/4/12: The Home Stretch
It’s the final stretch, lets take a quick look at what’s going on around the league: Tankapalooza 2012 has begun. This is the time of year players sit out with mystery ailments, random D-league players all of a sudden get huge minutes and teams try really hard to look like they are trying without really trying. So far Golden State is 1st in the league in playing below their potential to try and get a high draft pick. It’s real tight […]
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 […]

Roundball Soundoff 5/9/11: Bye-Bye to La-La Land & Perhaps the Windy City; Hello Memphis & Atlanta?
* The Lakers were swept. The Lakers were swept by the Dallas Mavericks. Dirk Nowitzki and the infamously choking Dallas Mavericks. C’mon, if you say you saw this one coming, you’re either lying, or you’re far more of a basketball genius than me and most other b-ball fanatics, because I don’t know anyone who predicted such an outcome. I’m still in shock. The Mavs not only swept the Lakers, they completely embarrassed them in the fourth game. It’s just too […]
Roundball Soundoff 4/25/11: Playoff Ponderings
Well, the Boston Celtics are the first team to advance to the second round, sweeping the New York Knicks. This series was closer than what the broom indicates. Even so, many people are calling for a new coach in New York, and I can’t say I blame them. D’Antoni’s offense-only approach, in my opinion, will never make a title contender. Some people are also saying the Melo move wasn’t good, but I think an Amare/Melo combo will only get better […]
Roundball Soundoff Extra: Jay’s Playoff Preview
Earlier this week, Khendra posted her NBA playoff picks and showed amazing foresight by picking the exact ranking for the Western Conference teams when the final ranking was still very much in flux (should we give her Tommy Points?). Anyway, Jay wanted in on the action and decided to post his own playoff predictions. Since the first series begins this afternoon, we decided to post Roundball Soundoff two days early this week. Let’s see what Jay has to say! Eastern Conference First […]
Roundball Soundoff 4/11/11: Playoff Preview
With only a few games left in the season, the playoff picture is pretty clear, so let’s have a look at the match-ups: Eastern Conference First Round 1. Chicago vs. 8. Indiana Chicago put together a great season and a nice final run to secure the top spot in the East. They are my favorites to win the title. Indiana squeaked in the final spot while Charlotte crumbled; they are the only playoff team with a sub-.500 record, so I […]
