Deron Williams is the real deal

May 27, 2007

Even though I have downplayed the prospects of this series, I am not too proud to admit I was wrong. At times, this was up and down, fun-to-watch basketball. Much of this has to do with Deron Williams. Oh my, I have been sleeping on Deron Williams! Have you taken a minute to look at [...]

Blazers win! Blazers win! … The Return of Rip City!

May 22, 2007

It is hard for me to collect my thoughts because of my overwhelming excitement, so I apologize in advance for the lack of journalistic resolve in this post.
As the lottery cards for the Atlanta Hawks and Seattle Supersonics turned over I spent the next minute screaming at the top of my lungs in my apartment. [...]

It's time for some Blazer lottery luck

May 22, 2007

It’s one of those days that seems like every other day. But for NBA fans, more specifically fans of the bottom dwelling teams, this is a day that could change the fortune of their struggling franchise. The lottery might just make me watch part of that Utah/San Antonio game.
I am wearing all red and black [...]

Spurs vs. Jazz series is more than I can bare

May 18, 2007

Please Suns. Let’s pull this one out. You’ve got Amare back. You’ve got Boris back. Let’s lay the smack down tonight, and then finish the Spurs off at home in game 7. For me. For America. For the love of the game. For the love of God.
No. I’m not really a Suns fan. And really, [...]

The First Ever Mock Lottery

May 16, 2007

It has never been done before. It probably will never be done again. And yes, I am this bored.
Who cares about mock DRAFTS? First thing is first people. We need an educated and analytical opinion of who will be getting those top picks in the upcoming draft. And in a draft where everyone seems to [...]

Suns’ penalty doesn’t fit the crime

May 16, 2007

It is a shame that the Suns will be playing without (All-NBA 1st Teamer) Amare Stoudemire and versatile Boris Diaw tonight after their dastardly deed of leaving the ‘immediate vicinity’ of their bench during an altercation. Did they leave the bench? I think there is really no question. But seeing as they had literally NO [...]

Battle Royale

May 15, 2007

Lets talk a bit about the mayhem that is the Suns/Spurs series. Going into this series, I think that everyone thought this would be an incredibly intriguing matchup. The Spurs’ disciplined, defensive-minded style of play vs. the Suns’ up-tempo and free-wheeling style of play. Nash, Marion, and Stoudemire vs. Parker, Ginobili, and Duncan. I [...]

Upset City?

May 3, 2007

Is anyone else excited for the Dallas/Golden State game tonight? This has been one of the most entertining series that I have seen in a long time. Dirk’s performance is up and down. Stephen Jackson is a loose cannon. The protege vs. the teacher (Avery vs. Don). The Warriors fans are intense/amazing. And the [...]

What does Brandon Roy have in common with Buck Williams?

May 2, 2007

To begin NBA Noise, I think it would only be fitting to write a homer post about my beloved Portland Trail Blazers. While recently, at times, it has been hard being a Blazer fan, today is clearly an exception. As if we didn’t see it coming, Brandon Roy was the recipient of the Eddie Gottlieb [...]
