POTD 1/8/13: James Harden on Robert Sacre

I was sincerely pulling for Robert Sacre to have a good game in his first start in place of the injured Dwight Howard… mostly because I wanted the Lakers to win, because that just would’ve been funny.  Unfortunately, that’s not … Continue reading

POTD 1/7/13: JJ Hickson on DeQuan Jones & Andrew Nicholson

Currently, there are three players tied for second in the NBA in double-doubles.  Do you know who they are?  Odds are that you do.  Predictably, perennial top-10 fixtures Dwight Howard and David Lee make up two thirds of the answer, … Continue reading

POTD 1/6/13: Amir Johnson on Serge Ibaka

On Saturday it was Larry Sanders, and on Sunday Serge Ibaka.  Coincidentally, the league’s premier shot blockers both got posterized this weekend.  For Sanders and Ibaka, I suppose there’s no shame in that.  Getting dunked on simply comes with the … Continue reading

POTD 1/5/13: Paul George on Larry Sanders

December 2012 was a month that Paul George probably wished would never end.  In 15 games George averaged a shade under 19 points per game on about 46% from the floor, and he also saw increases in his rebounds, assists, … Continue reading

POTD 1/4/13: Kobe Bryant on Chris Paul

As I noted in my summary of Kobe Bryant’s incredible duel with Chris Paul, the following dunk was just one of Mamba’s many statement plays from Friday night.  Personally, I think I most enjoyed the Iverson-esque crossover he used to … Continue reading

POTD 1/2/13: Greg Smith on Jason Smith

For the most part, Greg Smith has been the ideal backup center for the Houston Rockets.  With his great hands and soft touch around the rim, Smith’s skill set is especially complementary to that of Omer Asik, a big, defensive-minded … Continue reading

POTD 1/1/13: Amare Stoudemire on Victor Claver

As I pointed out in today’s Starting Lineup post, Amare Stoudemire’s return to the floor could’ve gone better.  That said, it could’ve gone worse, too.  While it would’ve been completely unreasonable to expect a player to sit out 30 consecutive … Continue reading

POTD 12/29/12: Hamed Haddadi on Kenneth Faried

From the Memphis Commercial Appeal: There was Haddadi, helping Quincy Pondexter off the floor after the guard suffered an MCL sprain with three seconds left in the third quarter. And he wasn’t just helping him — he was carrying him. … Continue reading

POTD 12/28/12: Tayshaun Prince on Chris Bosh

Terrence Ross has regularly been wowing us with his athleticism for weeks now, and just last night he threw down one of the nastiest poster dunks of the season.  Unfortunately, it didn’t count.  Just before the would-be victim, Jason Smith, … Continue reading
