This past weekend was full of many stories that might have flown under the radar due to the coverage of the NBA playoffs.
Here are just a few of those that may have gone unnoticed.
The Morning After is a look at the night that was in the NBA along with other NBA-related fodder.
The Miami Heat. Holy shit. Road game in hostile environment? Yup. Opposing team strong in the front-court and point guard positions, Miami’s two biggest weaknesses? Yup. A focused, unrelenting, fast-paced, ice-cold statement win? Yes, yes, yes and yes.
For the first time this season, the Heat played The Game We Were All Waiting For, when everything looked beautiful and terrifying at the same time. Have we finally seen the Dark Passenger?
The Morning After is a look at the night that was in the NBA along with other NBA-related fodder.
– Some of the Atlanta Hawks put up some ridiculous numbers in their 116-101 win over the New Jersey Nets: Sixth man du awesome Jamal Crawford poured in 26 points on 17 shots and Al Horford dropped 24 points, 10 boards and six assists.
However, it was Josh Smith who won the gold star, getting 34 points and seven assists while shooting 14-of-16 from the field. Remember, he’s shooting jumpers again too, making it, for one night, all the more impressive. But his outside shooting ventures remain, like a Skyhawk in flight, ultimately fleeting.

– In what could be construed as some sort of labor versus management uprising for the supernatural world, the Magic rose up and overtook the Wizards in pretty overwhelming fashion.

– The Miami Heat’s patchwork lineup of unknowns fell to the well-seasoned Boston Celtics, 88-80, as notable-acquisition-not-named-Eddie-House LeBron James dropped a game-high 31 points on 10-for-21 shooting.
This was a sloppy game. Lots of the famous LeBron-on-five offense was on display from his Anakin Skywalker years in Cleveland, and the Heat simply could not make up for all their wasted possessions. Dwyane Wade did an awesome Cleveland Cavalier-Larry Hughes impression, finishing with 13 points on 16 shots, six assists and six turnovers.
If you haven’t heard of the Amar’e trades you are one of two, you either have no life whatsoever, or you have so much of a life you could barely pay attention.
So to get to the point, the deadline is under 60 hours away, and one of the league’s best big man is about to be moved, and I can tell you it’ll be at least to two destiniations:
With much talk and confusion breaking loose, there needs to be someone to clear things up.
Ta-da, here I am! And here is what has been going on as of late with Amar’e, Cleveland and Miami.
