Los Angeles Clippers May Have Chris Paul Back vs. Heat

Frank Doyle
February 7, 2013

What Are The Odds the Clippers Win the Pacific? The Heat is on the Los Angeles Clippers, so to speak. With point guard Chris Paul and swingman Blake Griffin battling injuries, the Clippers have won just three of their last 10 games.

Farewell to Jose Calderon, the under-appreciated Raptor

Al Dannity
January 31, 2013

A crying Jose Calderon left his team-mates last night. Al Dannity was almost in tears with him. He’s been around you know. European leagues, international tournaments for every age group bringing him everywhere, and then the NBA. Jose Calderon may hail from Spain but he’s been a citizen of the world. For the last eight...

Golden State of Mind: Andrew Bogut Back for Warriors

Frank Doyle
January 29, 2013

Bogut Returns From Ankle Injury Stop me if you heard this one before, but Andrew Bogut returned from a major injury Monday night against the Toronto Raptors and looked like he barely missed a beat. Yes, the 7-foot Aussie has an injury list longer than Lindsay Lohan’s rap sheet at this point in his eight-year...

Brooklyn Nets Dismiss Head Coach Avery Johnson

Dale Perth
December 27, 2012

Despite getting the team off to a solid 11-4 start and being named the NBA’s Coach of the Month in November, the Brooklyn Nets fired Avery Johnson on Thursday. With the team in the middle of a 3-10 slide, capped off by an embarrassing 93-76 loss Christmas Day at home to the Boston Celtics which...

As Defense Improves, Bulls Still Struggling on Offense

Dale Perth
December 19, 2012

Without All-Star point guard Derrick Rose, recovering from ACL surgery and likely to be out for a few months more, the Bulls looked to be a team in trouble before the season began. Yet here they are with a 13-10 record, leading the Central Division and in fourth place in the Eastern Conference despite having...

Toronto Raptors Are At a Crossroads with Calderon

Dale Perth
November 22, 2012

To trade or not to trade: that is the question with Raptors point guard Jose Calderon. When Toronto acquired Kyle Lowry from the Houston Rockets, it was assumed Calderon would end up elsewhere. It’s a good thing that hasn’t happened yet, because an ankle injury to Lowry has allowed Calderon to shine at the point-guard...

Triple-Overtime Heartbreaker Magnifies Raptors’ Poor Start

Dale Perth
November 13, 2012

It all looked much brighter in training camp… new faces, new hope, maybe a new lease on life as the only pro team currently playing at the Air Canada Centre. Almost as quickly, that fire of optimism appears to be flickering for the Toronto Raptors. On Monday night, they played what may be seen later...

DeMar DeRozan Must Prove Himself to Stay a Raptor

Dale Perth
October 31, 2012

While much of the focus on the Toronto Raptors has been on the youngsters and the new faces, a decision has to be made on one veteran critical to the team. Rumours have swirled around guard/forward DeMar DeRozan on a four-year contract extension said to be worth in the neighbourhood of $34 million. The two...

Raptors Enter Season with New Hope

Frank Doyle
October 29, 2012

It’s been four long years since the Toronto Raptors qualified for the NBA postseason. They say this year will be different and there are some things to be optimistic about, but Raps supporters have been down this road before. They’ll want to see major changes on the court after the club saw a major facelift...
