Yao Ming Retires

The biggest basketball star from China announces it's official retirement as a professional basketball who made it to the Nba. Yao made his final decision last July 20, 2011 due to his constant food and leg injuries that bothered him in the middle of his career. The 7 foot 6 inch center player of china that manage to play in the Nba would officially end his career without getting what every player wants and that's winning a championship.

Yao was drafted by the Houston Rockets on 2002(Round 1, 1st overall pick) And would soon start to establish his name. Yao would capture and satisfy his fans with this agile moves were in he could play both inside and out. Yao Ming would also solidify his status with his high free throw percentage as a big man.

Yao Ming was known to be one of the most dominant players in the league playing at center position. His legs are like three trunk that holds his position well in the post area. And his height as 7'6 footer is his advantages not to be blocked easily by his defenders. And His feathery touch makes him shoot softly using a left/right hook. Yao Ming developed his hook shots due to his constant practice and also with the help of Nba hall of fame Hakim Olajuwon.

Yao Ming also had a good perimeter shooting were in he can drain those shots easily especially when he is wide open. There were also some instances that Yao shoots a long fade away shot or shoots a three point shot and made it. Yao was merely unpredictable and he was also a good in both offense and defensive rebounds. Yao is one of those big defenders inside the painted area were in he could just easily block his opponents shots or layup. With his height it's just easy to chase those layups and jump shots and swipe them away. One of those elite guard players who find a way to avoid Yao mings block shots was Allen Iverson. Iverson would make a layup and use the glass to make the shot fall into the basket. But Iverson would not just use the glass like normal layups that other players do. Iverson would use to hit almost the tip of the glass just to bypass and avoid Yao Mings block.

Yao Ming was influenced and was determined to one of the most competitive centers of the Nba during his time. He was determined to establish himself as one of the most dominant centers next to his rival Shaquille O'neal.

Dallas Mavericks 2011 Nba Champions

The Nba 2011 champions are the Dallas Mavericks as the team earned its first franchise title. As the series ended with 4-2 with the final score 106-95 in favor of the Dallas Mavericks. The Miami Heat failed to win and make it a 3-3 series to force a deciding game 7. At the first half the Dallas Mavericks had small lead and during the start of the 2nd half it was an all out war between both teams. As Dwane Wade would exerts all his efforts in trying to make the game close and tight till the end. On the 4th quarter the Heat would try to spoil the Dallas Mavericks big men Dirk Nowtizki and Tyson Chandler putting them into foul trouble. But Dallas bench and other back up players would step up and help there team. J.J. Barrea and Jason Terry would nail their 3 point shots and Jason Kidd of dive and hustle for the ball.

Wade lack support from his fellow superstars Lebron James and Chris Bosh who were seemingly slipping from the whole picture. Chris Bosh would hesitate from his shots and would miss some free throws. Lebron James would have some several turnovers including some offensive fouls and out of bounds calls from the referee.

Behind the teams success was also the long time dream of several Dallas players.

Dirk Nowitzki

After 13 years of playing in the Nba as a professional basketball player Dirk Nowitzki would earn his first ever Nba championship title. Dirk explains how he really worked hard half of his life in trying to achieve what players in the Nba was trying to accomplish and now he made this so far and Dirk was so emotional for his first Nba championship title. Dirk was so happy that he left the game early in the final quarter with just 5 seconds life on the clock.

Dirk went straightly to the locker room as tears of joy were seen on his eyes. Dirk also elaborated that it was indeed a sweet revenge for them from the 2006 lost against the Miami Heat. When the Dallas Mavericks won 2 straight games at home but lost 4 straight to Miami. Dirk Nowitzki would also earn his first Nba finals Mvp as he really deserves the award. Dirk would struggle early in the game with poor shooting to end the first half. But when the game hits 4th quarter he stood up to the challenge and would his shots count when his team needs it most.

Dirk really prove to be consistent both physically and mentally. Dirk outlasted a sick game 4 and an injured his left middle finger with a teared tendon. But Dirk would be consistent especially on the crucial part of the game and his free throws. In the start of the finals between the Miami Heat Dirk would ask help from his teammates especially on the offense side. Since he knows he is the main target of the Miami Heat to be shut down. And who would step up the moment he will be guarded defensively and will have a bad game. And soon on the coming games Dirk's teammates would step up to help his loads. Then Jason Kidd, J.J. Barream Jason Terry, Tyson Chandler and the rest of the troops would be there to help Dirk out.

Jason Kidd

The 38 year old from San Francisco California Jason Kidd finally capture one Nba championship title after several attempts and appearance in the Nba finals. Kidd had chances and opportunities before when his New Jersey Nets team went to the finals two times. But they lost to the Los Angeles Lakers and to the San Antonio Spurs. But now Kidd accomplished what he had dream long. To get an Nba Championship with all the hard work and efforts he gave.

Jason Kidd would be consistent in the game as he knows his contributions are needed by Dirk Nowitzki and the rest of this teammates would benefit from it. His defense against talented super stars like Kevin Durant(Oklahoma Thunder) and Lebron James would a big factor. As Kidd would easily swipe the ball from their position and would also steal and take it away from them.

Jason Terry

Another player from the Dallas Mavericks who have been playing for quite a long time. Jason Terry even have a Nba Trophy Tattoo on his right arm. And Terry would tell the media that he dream this for a long time and would have end up a decision in removing the tattoo if they can't win a championship this series. Jason Terry had been Dirk Nowitzki's side score duo especially in the fourth quarter. And they had been dreaming this title for all of there life were they put all efforts on the line. Terry answered Dirk Nowitzki's call to help him offensively as Dirk was really having a hard time in the game. As a double or even triple team would guard him but when it happens Dirk would dish the ball to his teammate Jason Terry and would get an easy shot.

Peja Stojakovic

One of the rosters before of the underdog Sacramento Kings that were having a great finals against the Los Angeles Lakers. Peja Stojakovic finally capture an Nba title and someone full filled a dream come true on his professional basketball career. Peja Stojakovic had his sweetest revenge from the Los Angeles Lakers. When his team Sacramento Kings lost to the hands of the 3 peat champions. It was a dream come true for every shooter in the Nba to be there standing and waiting for the ball to be pass. And there was Peja left alone in an open place in the court and could have saved his Sacramento Kings from the hands of the Lakers.

But this time Peja Stojakovic prove about something to himself that he was ready to forget the past. And Peja accepted his defeat but would come back as a better shooter and a player playing for the Dallas Mavericks. He would contribute to his team offensively answering and nailing every three point shot he can give to them.

Nba's One of the greatest winning comeback

It was game 2 of the Nba finals 2011 between the host Miami Heat and the Dallas Mavericks were it would be one of the most memorable comeback games of the Nba finals. When the game was about to end and when Dwane Wade would go unstoppable on the 3rd quarter. Wade would made a three pointer to extend there lead to a 15 point deficit. And after the shot the Miami squad on the bench including the players on the court would celebrate.

But as soon as the 5:00 minute mark of the 4th quarter would start. It would also ignite the defense and offense of the relentless Dallas Mavericks. Were in they would crawl back and bite those 15 point deficit and make a huge come back. Possession after possession as the heat could not capitalize on there turnovers. And being bothered by the Dallas defense being showed and established. As the heat squad continued to be scoreless and bothered from the great defense the Dallas is throwing at them.

As Jason kidd, Dirk Nowitzki and the rest of there teammates help one another on defense and offense to complete a late fourth quarter comeback. But it was the Dallas Mavericks ace player Dirk Nowitzki would be the main highlight of the game. Dirk would lead his team to an stellar and unforgettable performance he will ever play. Dirk would nail all open and contested shots he can get. And would seemingly find a way to score and penetrate on the defense of Miami. And on the last possession they will ever have when the score was tied 90 all. With 50 seconds on the clock Dirk would get an open screen from Tyson Chandler and would nail clutch a three point shot. And the 3 point shot made by Dirk Nowitzki would give the Dallas Mavericks there instant lead of the game.

With 25+ seconds remaining Miami Heat would give Dallas a good inbound play. Mario Chalmers would drain a 3 point shot in the corner to tie up the game 93 a piece. And after that shot Dallas would call a time out and talk things over.

As soon as the time out was over. Both teams would be on the edge of there seats as the fans of the stadium would rise up for the last seconds of the Game. Others would think that there will be an overtime and others would expect a game wining shot. And on the inbound play the ball was passed to the hands of Dirk Nowitzki. Then Dirk would do his moves on the court guarded by Chris Bosh. But Dirk would find a way to settle the game and lift his team to victory as he surpasses Chris Bosh defense.

Dirk would get away and would make a layup using his injured left hand. The hand he had a tendon injury but would make the shot count. As it will be remembered as one of the greatest late comeback's of the Nba History. The Dallas Mavericks would capture game 2 of the best of seven series with the final score 95-93.

Shaquille Oneal Retires

One of the most charismatic and most dominant player in the Nba that played the center position retires. Shaquille Oneal retires at the age of 39 years old. He ended his career with 19 years playing in the Nba and managed to win 4 championships.

Shaquille Oneal's career started when he was drafted in Orlando Magic. And began his professional basketball days in the team together with Penny Hardaway and Anderson. And years after years of development and progress in the court. Shaq would be one of the most dominant and unstoppable centers in the league.

With his size and brute force there is no one could stop him when he gets the position in the shaded area or the paint section. It's either the person guarding him would just foul him to prevent the easy 2 points and let Shaq earn his points from the free throw line.

Sine Shaq's weakness was to get points from the line. And he always struggles in the free throw line all life of his career. And the only thing people can do to stop him was to foul him quickly or he will get an instant 2 points.

Lakers Team

Shaquille Oneal would soon move to another team and this time he will establish and earn what all players want to achieve. Shaq would tandem with future hall of famer Kobe Bryant and would accomplish a 3 peat. The lakers squad would dominate a 3 straight championship title and would be one of the greatest teams that played in the Nba and Shaq would earn 3 Nba Finals MVP. Shaq would dominate his opponent and would just crush them instantly to whoever is guarding him in the center position.

Together would Kobe Bryant the lakers would cruise to some dramatic playoff achievements like sweeping all there enemies and reach the Nba Finals.

Miami Squad

For some years the lakers would suffer all star crisis and doubt to whoever is the real ace player of the team. And this would end up Shaq leaving the team as to prove that he is a dynamic player. Shaquille Oneal would join the Miami heat team and would team up with Dwane Wade.

And together they would capture an Nba Championship in 2006 versus Dallas Mavericks. Shaq would earn his 4th Nba championship Title and would fulfill the dream of another veteran and one of most defensive centers in the league Alonzo Mourning.

Some of the accomplishments that Shaquille Oneal made when he was active in playing as a professional basketball player.

• 4× NBA Champion (2000, 2001, 2002, 2006)
• 3× NBA Finals MVP (2000–2002)

Mavericks Sweep Lakers - Disgraced there coach

The Dallas Mavericks advantage to the 3rd round(Conference Finals) of the Nba Playoffs as they sweep and defeated the defending champions Los Angeles Lakers 4-0 standing. Lead by there superstar Dirk Nowitzki the Dallas came out strong and prepared for the game. As Dirk Nowitzki get's help from his teammates who were also lock and loaded for the game. As Jason Terry and Peja Stojakovic were mad from the three point area. Hitting from all angles and all areas beyond the arc. Tyson Chandler was also a beast in the paint area as Andrew Bynum and Pau Gasol were meant nothing.

Jason Terry was sizzling hot from the start of the game to the end. As Terry registered a playoff record of 9/10 three point shots. Terry only missed one three point attempt but someone kept shooting three point shots till the game ends. Same goes with his team mate Peja Stojakovic who was perfect from the three point area. Peja Stojakovic made 6/6 three point shots who did not missed and still manage to shot three point shots until the last minute of the game. Dirk Nowitzki also added some three point shots and J.J. Barrea. The total three point attempts of the Mavericks was stunning 23 three point shots were made.

The Lakers were no were to be found as the deficit of the game were getting huge. And game would wrapped up to 122-86 in favor of the Dallas Mavericks.

Phil Jackson Disgraced

This might be the last playoff or even the last game that Phil Jackson will coach his Lakers team. And this last game was such a disgrace for him. At the last minute of the game as temper and frustrations were filling the team members of the Lakers. As if they were playing like no sportsmanship and not like champions. Ron Artest had a fast break situation but blow the layup and missed it. And as they gamble the ball with Tyson Chandler Artest committed a obvious foul.

When Lamar Odom was throws an elbow to Dirk Nowitzki and was automatically ejected in the game. And When J.J. Barea was driving into the basket and Andrew Bynum hits Barea with a flagrant foul and was also ejected from the game. Barea was on the air when Bynum hit him hard with his elbow and Barea fell down hard on the wood. If you could just imagine how small Barea compared to Andrew Bynum. That's a point guard against a center whose size is triple compared to a point guard.

It was a bad intention and move for Bynum and Odom. We all know they were frustrated but for the sake of the game and some manner's they should act like professionals. Both Bynum and Odom left the game because they were ejected and all Phil Jackson can do was bow down and shake his head.

At least the Lakers could have showed some poise and respect to the other team. Not putting something or making something worse for others. I was really mad and disappointed on what Odom and Bynum just did. They could have just accept defeat and take responsibilities as a losing team.

This is how they show there coach what are there true colors? They could have just finished the game nice and easy and tribute this game to Phil Jackson even if they lost. I don't see something wrong if that's what they did. And all they did was put there coach into shame and disgraced phil Jackson. For after all what Jackson did to the team from the 3 peat championship to the back to back championship on 2010-2011 season.

Dennis Rodman A hall of Famer

Dennis Rodman is now an NBA Hall of Fame. We will all remember on how he grabs those nasty rebounds and unpredictable hustle just to save the ball. After a successful and epic basketball journey Rodman will remain in your history as one of the best players who can rebound offensive and defensively. His hustle and relentless energy he brings in the court is just amazing and spectacular to see. Although his style and fashion is seemingly different from other ordinary players. But we all know his capable of making himself presentable on and off the court.

Rodman was drafted on the Detroit Pistons as 27Th pick in the second round on 1986. The same year that his buddy Michael Jordan was also drafted. Rodman's charisma would soon be established on his early years in Detroit with head coach Chuck Daly. And on his later years in the NBA he would enter the San Antonio Spurs squad together with All star center David Robinson. And on the peak carrier Rodman would enter the unforgettable Chicago Bulls making a big trio of Scottie Pippen, Dennis Rodman and Michael Jordan.

Here are some of the accomplishments that Dennis Rodman achieved on his basketball years.

• 5× NBA Champion (1989–1990, 1996–1998)
• 2× NBA Defensive Player of the Year (1990–1991)
• 2× NBA All-Star (1990, 1992)
• 2× All-NBA Third Team (1992, 1995)
• 7× All-Defensive First Team (1989–1993, 1995–1996)
• All-Defensive Second Team (1994)
• 7× NBA rebounding champion (1992–1998)

Dwight Howard gets facial block!

It was a game in Boston Celtics and Orlando Magic as one of this captured moments were Dwight Howard gets an ally-op. But he gets a facial block from his defender Semih Erden(86)

Dwight Howard managed to shot the ball and finished the ally-op play. But as soon as he landed he bowed down and touched his face. He sits down in the bench after he cannot clearly see. And gets a first aid treatment from his eyes. And we will return late in game but his team Orlando Magic would loose to the Boston Celtics with a final score 91-80.

Dwane Wade Blocks Dwight Howard

I have seen players that block strong big men in the Nba. But if you are Dwight Howard on your prime years then its definitely not a joke to block Mr. Superman. Now a point guard can block a center? No way it will happen so easy. But if you are Dwane Wade then you have to be super good in doing defensively.

Dwane Wade just blocked Dwight Howard not just once but I have seen it twice. And the pictures will show you that Dwane Wade was successful in blocking Dwight Howard.


The first Picture shows you that Dwane Wade was defending Dwight Howard. After Howard got the pass and positioned himself for a powerful move. Wade and Anthony was double teaming Howard. As soon as Howard lefts off to shoot Dwane Wade was there at his back. Wade just slapped the ball out from Howard's hands and a block shot was accomplished.


This second picture also shows again that Dwane Wade blocked again Dwight Howard. And this time with two hands. After Howard got the pass from in the shaded area. Howard immediately took the mismatch advantage between him and Dampier. As soon as Howard was on the air Dwane Wade just jumped high behind him and blocked his shot with two hands. On this game The Orlando Magic would lose the the Miami Heat 104 - 100 in favor of the Heat.

Kevin Garnet elbowed by Pau Gasol

The battle between the defending champions Los Angeles Lakers and rival team Boston Celtics turned out to be a bloody game. As the game went on some serious and physical defense were applied for both teams. As each players collide with each other were almost everybody gets a chance to be banged up.

But there was an incident were in Kevin Garnett attempted to block Paul Gasol. But as soon as they start to land Gasol accidentally hits Garnett with his elbow. The result was a bloody mess face of Kevin Garnett.


Garnett knew he was hit and after the contact covered and touched his head. Then as soon as he lefts his face a bloody wound was on his forehead. Then Garnett would get first aid treatment and a bandaid would be placed on his forehead.

After being treated Garnett would go back and continue to play the game. The Celtics would win the game against the host game Los Angeles Lakers with the final score 109 to 96 in favor with the Celtics.

Olsen Racela retires

Olsen Racela of the San Miguel Beermen ends his carrier after 18 years of being a professional basketball player. Olsen Racela retires his jersey number 17 as Racela's speech was:

What he said after that was what livened up the spirits of the team. “Let’s make one more run and it starts tonight. I want to end my career with a championship with your help,” he quipped.

And on the later game the beermen would win game 4 of the all Filipino cup finals and the standing is now tie 2-2 for there rival talk and text squad.

One of the best free throw shooter in the PBA averaging almost 90% consistently. Racela also had a great carrier and be one of the most memorable great point guards in the history of the PBA. Racela will also be remembered for his clutch and crucial three point shots that made him one of the deadliest shooters in the league.

One of the most outstanding and consistent point guards that ever played in the PBA. Olsen Racela is one of those person you can really on especially on crucial parts of the game. His confidence and perseverance can lift a team or win a game.

Being olsen Racela is definitely one of a kind. It's sad to hear that he is retiring but he had contributed much in the league. As of now I hope the beermen will win a championship in tribute to Olsen Racela. And we will miss this person and the way he plays on the court.

University Of Cebu 2010 Cesafi Champions

The university of Cebu webmasters just created history by defeating the defending and reigning champions University of the Visayas Green Lancers. The Webmasters spoiled the 9 time defending champions and earned the 2010 CESAFI (Cebu Schools Athletic Foundation Inc) College division. The game was full of action and suspense as it was a tight game in the end. The final score was in favor of the webmasters 73-72 in game 4 of the final series.

Webmasters big man Junmar Fajardo 6'10 finished strong in the game with 32 points. And was held responsible for the winning jump shot he made as time wines down.

USA tops Fiba

The USA team reclaimed there throne after so many years of failure and triumphs in the newly ended successful event FIBA world cup. This time with a young superstar that is the key player of there championship. If Michael Jordan during his prime years could have joined Fiba and for sure won a championship with the USA team.

But Kevin Durant a young superstar was the key player that established and held the USA the new FIBA 2010 world champions. Kevin Durant has remained focused and determined to win. With winning games and a back to back 30 points above performance. Kevin Durant was just ready for this kind of contest as his team defeated the host Turkey.

As the USA squad battle it out with young superstars instead of those high talented and profiled athletes. Still the USA team managed to capture the championships with this kind of talents that they have. Rumors had been the determination for the USA squad and made the players strong. Since a lot of them said they can't win the championship with this kind of lineup they have. But the USA squad prove them wrong as its another history in the making for them.

dethroned

WORLD POOL CUP 2010

The defending champions Efren "Bata" Reyes and his partner Django Bustamante did not make it to another round. As the two favorites lost to an indonesia's Ricky Yang and Mohammad Sulfikri. It was a pressure battle between the two teams but the pinoy icons did not manage to escape.

As they just wave to the crowd after the game and ask apology to there home crowd for a mission failed situation. As the next round advances only Roberto Gomez and Dennis Orocollo are left of team philippines.

FIBA WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS 2010
The defending champions Spain lost there chances to defend their throne in the on going FIBA world championship in turkey. Spain lost to Serbia with the final score 92-89 in favor of Serbia.

Spain goes home as Serbia advances to the next round. It was a really close game as the lead did not went to more than ten points. Marc Gasol the brother of Pau Gasol had a huge game. And with the help of his team mate Rudy Fernandez. But Serbia had answers for Spain and they answer on the 3 point areas.

It was on the fourth quarter were in Marc Gasol tied the game 89 all with a two handed slam dunk. With just 25 seconds remaining on the clock Serbia called a time out to talk things over.

On the inbound play Teodosic was way far from the 3 point area as the clock ticks down. And with unexpected play he quickly shoots a long three point shoot that shocked the world. Teodosic managed to hit the three point shot even if the defense was on his face.

Nba Legends VS Pba Legends

After they first game this two basketball associations have made were in the Nba legends defeated the Pba legends. With the final score 109-86 in favor of the Nba legends. But before they could get a win they were amazed how the filipino players answered there challenged. On the first meeting One man showed how quick he can get hot in the three point area. Allan "The Trigger man" Caidic illustrated he can get his rhythm in an instant. On the first half Caidic rained five 3 point shots that kept the game close. But on the second half the Nba legends showed the Filipino fans how basketball is played.



But the 2nd NBA Asia Challenge proved to be another spectacular night for the most feared shooter in Asia. As The trigger man showcased his talent one more time in the playing court. This time it was more than the first meeting and he rained 14 three point bombs. That was enough to sink the opposing team he was playing at. As the game ended with 177 to 167 score in favor of the Red team were Allan Caidic was playing.

Allan Caidic demonstrated he still have the skills, talent and the title why he is called the trigger man. As Caidic showed his stellar performance and what he was made of. There was no doubt Caidic defy his age that he still can play and is still a great threat from the outside. As you get older your skills might get diminished but caidic's shooting did not fade away. If you watch him shoot and play you can't eventually predict what damage Caidic can do to the opposing team. A hot shot or a dead shot from the outside makes him very dangerous.

Here are the teams composed and mixed with Nba Legends.

RED Team

Lazare = 22
Glen Rice = 19

Fiba World cup

Fiba world cup just started and just like Fiba it will be the battle of basketball from all nations involved. My favorite teams are Spain, Usa and Argentina since I knew good and great nba players there.

Spain somehow will miss the presence of Pau Gasol as he decided not to play for this coming Fiba world cup. For sure his presence will be missed and his court plays will not be there to be executed. Only his brother Marc Gasol will represent for him but still spain needs more great and experienced players. As they will defend their crown that they captured last 2006.

Argentina is still quick and dangerous as ever. As Manu Ginobili and the rest of his teammates will be there to play. Argentina are capable of doing hustle plays and crucial basket. As they prove to be one of the most legitimate teams around the world that joined the Fiba world cup. San Antonio superstar Manu Ginobili will once again lead his team mates in the quest for there team.

USA is just one of those all star teams that I know. Merely because most of them are from the well known Nba basketball. Watching this team play is like watching an all star game during Nba all star weekend. As there team are composed of elite nba superstars and players. One of my favorite players that played for this team is the Oklahoma superstar Kevin Durant. USA should come up big as they are expected to be dominant and one of the most feared team.

Dwight Howard Tought, Agrresive, Defender

Dwight Howard this season has been very spectacular to watch. He makes eye pooping dunks and crash the boards like no body can. Defensively he is great in which you better think twice before making a move. Think again the moment you penetrate that will make him involved your shot. Do not let him contest your shots because he might upset you with a volleyball block.

Another season that he claimed as the most defensive player of the year. Back-to-back award for Dwight Howard. He is also a candidate for MVP award by which the award goes to Lebron James. This NBA semi-conference series the Orlando Magic entered the second round. And at the moment they are facing the Atlanta Hawks by which they are leading the series with 1-0.

The game one was just an introduction how Dwight Howard can be a threat on offense and defense. At this young age he can dominate the paint area. If he can make the first step leading to the basket then expect a dunk on it. If he makes a successful pick and roll play expect an ally-op for that.

A young player with helpful team mates makes the Orlando Magic deserve to enter and survive the Nba Playoffs. Together with their lineups are Vince Carter, Rashard Lewis, Mickael Pietrus and Jameer Nelson who are as deadly from the outside. Especially on the three point areas.

Probably Orlando will face the Cleveland Cavaliers in the conference finals if not the Celtics will defeat King James and his team. So much to watch on NBA its like every game shouldn't be missed.
