Don’t Call it a Comeback: Rose-demption

Derrick Rose last night released more than just tears of joy after scoring a career-high 50 points in the Minnesota Timberwolves 128-125 victory over the Utah Jazz. This performance last night wasn’t vintage D Rose from his 2011 MVP season but it was vintage in his confidence and how he attacked the rim time after time after time.

Historic Shooting: Klay Thompson

Going into Monday night’s game against the Chicago Bulls, the Golden State Warriors Guard Klay Thompson was in a shooting slump to start the season.

Tyronn Lue Fired After Winless Start

The Cleveland Cavaliers like to play the blame game and the latest scapegoat is Tyronn Lue.  The now former head coach of the Cavs has done a lot for this organization and it really is not fair to point the finger at him for this bad start, since there is not much anybody could do with this roster and situation.

RECAP: Denver Nuggets vs Los Angeles Lakers

The Denver Nuggets, riding the momentum of a 4-0 start, were looking to continue their strong early-season form.  Meanwhile, the Lakers had just picked up win No.1 the previous before. The effects of the big fight in the Rockets game were still being felt by the Lakers as significant players remained suspended.

RECAP: Houston Rockets vs Los Angeles Lakers

The Los Angeles Lakers and Houston Rockets both suffered losses in their first games and were both looking for their first win. This was the first home game for LeBron James’ Lakers, and the buzz was high in media across the NBA. The visiting Rockets are the top-tier of the West, while their hosts last night are stuck in the middle of the pack.
