Kobe Bryant
Kobe Bryant may have his future planned out after his playing days are over, but coaching clearly isn’t one of them, based on his response to a Lakers fan on twitter. Although the superstar guard did everything in his will in trying to play through a severely sprained ankle on Friday night against the Indiana Pacers, he quickly came to a realization that it wasn’t meant to be after just 12 minutes of play.

by

A day after watching Kobe Bryant go down with a severely sprained ankle due to Dahntay Jones’ “aggressive” defense, there was much debate about whether the play was dirty and if a foul should have been called on the play. Lets take a look at some of the reactions from around the league. Here is one from Mark Jackson and Bruce Bowen (ironically), from Eric Pincus of Los Angeles Times: [Read more…]

It’s not often that Oklahoma City Thunder center Kendrick Perkins sings the praise of anyone who isn’t his teammate, so it’s worth noting when he does acknowledge someone on a different team. That player on Thursday night was Kenyon Martin, who started for the injured Carmelo Anthony and had his best game of the season since becoming a member of the New York Knicks, with 12 points on six-of-10 shooting and four rebounds. Unfortunately for Martin and the Knicks, the

Tweet of the Night: Kobe Bryant

Through all the good times and the bad for the Los Angeles Lakers, there has been one constant they could always count on: Kobe Bryant. Heck, he even has a well known hashtag on twitter called “countonkobe”. That, unfortunately, may no longer be the case for the foreseeable future after the guard suffered a severely sprained ankle during the final moments of what proved to be an intense contest between the Lakers and the Atlanta Hawks. With a chance to pull up

Tweet of the Night: Danny Green

Note to coaches who wish to employ the Hack-A-Dwight strategy: if the man starts making his free throws – and he is capable of making them if you send him there frequently enough – ditch the stubborn tactic and go to something else. For some reason, Orlando Magic coach Jacque Vaughn kept going to this play, despite Howard’s gradual increase in success rate. The Los Angeles Lakers center eventually made 16 of his final 20 attempts at the line, finishing 25-of-39

Tweet of the Night: Steve Kerr

The biggest game on Monday night was the match between the Oklahoma City Thunder and San Antonio Spurs – a clash between two of the very best teams in the Western Conference. It was expected to be a dog fight, but the Spurs ran away with the game with a big push in the fourth quarter to lead by as many as 18 points, despite playing without point guard Tony Parker. For the Thunder, who had previously lost five consecutive games

SH Blog: Howard hated being only player people knew from Orlando, says no one cared about Magic

by

Whenever Dwight Howard talks to the media these days,  something seems to go wrong. This has been especially true when the topic is about the Orlando Magic. The Los Angeles Lakers center raised plenty of eyebrows last week after bringing up how he led a group of guys no one wanted in Orlando. Howard, of course, backtracked from the comments, stating he was misunderstood and that it was blown out of proportion. Truth be told, there really wasn’t a whole lot to
