Five Fast Facts from NBA Games: 2.7.13
Bauman: Carmelo Anthony back on track offensively?
NEW YORK — “It’s not there for him right now,” I said to a fellow reporter to my left as I watched Carmelo Anthony miss short on a 14-foot leaner on his ninth field goal attempt of the game with 3:50 remaining in the first half. And then… All of a sudden… It was there for Carmelo Anthony… It was everywhere for Anthony. [Read more…]
SH Blog: Bulls Surge, Await Return of Rose: More Around The NBA
What isn’t there to be excited about in Chicago right now? OK, the weather. But as far as the Bulls … If last week’s three overtime games in a row – 2-1 in those contests – weren’t enough to put the Bulls on the map, just take a look at this week. [Read more…]

It’s always intriguing to read the minds of general managers of the NBA: they are the ones who produce the teams we watch, afterall.
