Congratulations Miami Heat


Eventhough I don't like the Miami Heat I have to admit they were amazing in the Finals, so hats off!

The Oklahoma City Thunder did put up a fair fight but the big 3 of Miami finished them off in the 5th final, winning comfortably.

See you in the Finals next year Lebron!

Celtics beat the Miami Hype - easily!



On Sunday night the Miami Heat, who played very well the whole season, travelled to Boston to take on the Boston Celtics in the TD Garden, and what a game it turned out to be!


The Celtics won the game 91-72, and it was truly an amazing game from the Boston Celtics.


The most notable player of the game was The Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo who absolutely tore the Miami Heat defense to pieces, finishing with his 5th triple-double of the season (16 points, 14 assists and 11 rebounds).

This was the Celtics 5th straight win and they are now at the top of the Atlantic division.

Celtics back on track?




Friday night’s game against the Portland Trailblazers was a joke. The Celtics started off playing very aggressive and quickly got in the lead. Portland didn’t have a chance. In the middle of the third quarter Portland had scored only 37 points (!!!) against the Celtics 74. The Celtics won the game comfortably but are still just over the .500 mark.

As you can see in the table below they are in the middle of the Eastern Conference having won 21 games and lost 18, which is a lot worse than the same time last season. 


The Chicago Bulls with the amazing D Rose at point guard, who are in the top of the table, have only lost 9 (!) games and have a winning percentage of .791 which is just unbelievable.

Boston now have a 2-week west coast road trip, starting with the Lakers at Staple Center tonight. Don’t miss! It could be amazing.

NBA All Star Weekend 2012!



OK basketball fans!



After a shortened, strange and frustrating (especially for Celtics fans) first half of the NBA season it is time for this year’s NBA All Star game. This year it takes place in the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida.


The annual celebrity game and Rising Star Challenge was played yesterday. Check out Davka for the torrents.

Except for the main event, there is  a lot of other events. My favourite event is the Sprite Slam Dunk Contest on Saturday at 8 pm ET. This year’s lineup consists of Chase Budinger (Houston Rockets), Paul George (Indiana Pacers), Jeremy Evans (Utah Jazz) and Derrick Williams (Minnesota Timberwolves). Maybe not the most exciting lineup to date, but hey, you know you’re going to watch it anyways!

The actual All Star game is scheduled for Sunday night at 7 pm EST (game starts at 8 pm) and will probably be available on TNT (or your local streaming site…)



West starters
Kobe Bryant (Lakers)
Blake Griffin (Clippers)
Andrew Bynum (Lakers)
Kevin Durant (OKC Thunder)
Chris Paul (Clippers)

East starters
Derrick Rose (Bulls)
LeBron James (Heat)
Dwight Howard (Magic)
Carmelo Anthony (Knicks)
Dwayne Wade (Heat)


So get your snacks and beer ready, let’s go!
