The Pacers appear to be in good shape lately. Maybe this is due to the easy schedule they had, but in any case, they have achieved three consecutive wins and hence they remain in the top-10 of the Eastern standings (25-27). In their most recent games, they defeated the Grizzlies 132-125, with an excellent LeVert… Continue Reading »

Many rushed and called Real’s season a failure, but the Madrilenians had two very “convincing answers” last week. The first one in Turkey, where they turned the derby against Fener into a friendly match. Thus they have now qualified for the Euroleague’s playoffs that for a few weeks seemed unlikely. The second one on Sunday… Continue Reading »

Under normal circumstances, we would look forward to tonight’s Lakers test (32-20, 5th in the West) in Brooklyn… Hosted by the rejuvenated and super ambitious Nets. However, the absences of superstars champions LeBron James and A. Davis – both due to injury – will probably deprive us of the opportunity to enjoy a game that… Continue Reading »

Armani (20-13) lived a proper nightmare last week in Athens. Ettore Messina’s team was ahead of Panathinaikos by 20 points at OAKA but managed to lose the game in overtime (86-83). As a result the Italians will need to beat Efes (22-11) tonight, in order to win the 4th place of the regular season and… Continue Reading »
