As we move towards the postseason, it is worth looking back two decades to one of the most memorable postseasons in NBA history, 1993. [Read more…]
SH Blog: Miami Can Make History; Bynum Done for the Year; Gasol Back In 2 Weeks
There’s an age-old axiom that states: you don’t set out to build a wall. You lay one brick as perfectly as that brick can be laid, and you do it every day, and soon you will have a wall. The Miami Heat didn’t set out to break the NBA’s all-time longest win-streak of 33 games – a 41-year old record held by the 1971-’72 Los Angeles Lakers — but as they continue to stack win after win, it is becoming well
Five Fast Facts for NBA Games of 3.19.13
Twenty-three. Despite the game of his life from Jeff Green. And the man who got it done at the end for the Miami Heat was none other than Mr. Unanimous, as he shall be called after all the MVP votes are tallied. Shall we rename the MVP rankings The Race For Second Place? Meanwhile, the Nuggets’ win streak reached 12 with a controversial finish in Chicago, the Lakers scored the fewest points of any team playing except the Hornets, and the Knicks
Tweet of the Night: David Robinson
Will the Miami Heat lose another game this season? With a nail-biting 105-103 victory against a surprisingly feisty Boston Celtics team that played without Kevin Garnett, the Miami Heat extended their ridiculous winning streak to 23 games – the second best streak ever in NBA history. The team overcame a career night from Jeff Green, who had a whopping 43 points on 14-of-21 shooting – including 5-of-7 from the 3-point line and 10-of-13 from the stripe – along with seven rebounds, two
Bernucca: Rooting for the Celtics to beat Heat, preserve an “unbreakable” record
I will be rooting for the Boston Celtics against the Miami Heat tonight. Having been a Philadelphia 76ers fan for nearly four decades, that’s a pretty big deal. Usually there are only three circumstances that can get me to throw my allegiance behind a team I have despised for as long as I’ve watched the NBA. 1. By winning, the Celtics would beat a team whose loss would help the 76ers. 2. By winning, the Celtics would get a tougher playoff opponent. 3. By winning, the
Sheridan: Birdman the Missing Link For Heat
I touched on this in yesterday’s MVP rankings, and I did it again in this interview with CineSport’s Noh Coslov. I called Chris Andersen the “missing link” for the Miami Heat, and you can add your own joke if you like. [Read more…]
Is LeBron James Having Greatest Win-Streak Performance Ever?
LeBron James scored 27 points, dished out eight assists and grabbed seven rebounds in Miami’s win over Philadelphia on Wednesday in the Heat’s historic 20th consecutive win. Only three other teams have won at least 20 straight in a single season (the Washington Capitols, who played basketball in the 40’s, won 20 straight spanning two seasons). Two other teams won 19 straight, and all six clubs that won at least 19 in a row had historically great players on their respective
Sheridan Hoops Sixth Man Rankings: Week 19
It’s amazing what an injury to a single player, especially a star player, can do to the entirety of a 15-man roster. Recent injuries to the likes of Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant, Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo and Knicks forwards Carmelo Anthony and Amar’e Stoudemire have raised serious questions about how these teams cope without indespensable players. Some of the NBA’s best sixth men are trying to take full advantage of these very situations. What can be especially amazing about a star-driven
