Morning brew

Sat, 7 Nov 2009 12:37:07 +0000

To borrow Michael Lee's phrase from his postgame thoughts, Friday night's game will be remembered for the Wrath of Tawn. Nothing pretty about the 102-86 loss to the Pacers in Indianapolis. Antawn Jamison, to his credit, spoke up and let his teammates have it. But other than that, there wasn't much in the way of highlights. Certainly not in the box score. Well, Brendan Haywood getting 19 rebounds looks impressive. The Washington Times was also on hand for this listless performance. Not a good way to end the week. And look, the Phoenix Suns are coming up. The same Phoenix Suns team that just knocked off the previously undefeated Celtics at home. As usual, the highlights courtesy of NBA.com, such as they are: Around the league... We had 13 games on Friday and plenty of highlights, from the Cavaliers' LeBron James dropping 33 on the Knicks at MSG to the

Pacers 102, Wizards 86

Sat, 7 Nov 2009 05:21:14 +0000

Simple question: What happened out there? Andray Blatche buttoned his shirt, pondered his answer, but the words couldn't come out. He threw on his black bubble-vest coat, still struggling to explain the most troubling loss of the season for a Washington Wizards team that entered this season with high expectations. "I don't know. I swear I don't know what to say after that one," Blatche said. "Tough one. This whole game, I'm just speechless. I can't say nothing about this game." Blatche was probably spooked by the Wrath of Tawn. Antawn Jamison isn't expected to be back in uniform for another week or so because of his sprained right shoulder, but that doesn't mean that he isn't passionate about the direction of his team. So, after watching his teammates lose their third in a row -- an embarrassing blowout to a struggling team that entered the game with just

Wizards (2-3) at Pacers (1-3)

Fri, 6 Nov 2009 23:44:27 +0000

Wizards starters: Gilbert Arenas, Nick Young, Caron Butler, Fabricio Oberto, Brendan Haywood Pacers: T.J. Ford, Brandon Rush, Dahntay Jones, Danny Granger, Roy Hibbert Line: Pacers by 1.5. Shaquille O'Neal's hard foul on DeShawn Stevenson has officially been upgraded to a flagrant one penalty foul. O'Neal flattened Stevenson in the second quarter of the Wizards' 102-90 loss in Cleveland on Tuesday, delivering a body shot and a chop to the head that elicited cheers from Cavaliers fans. Stevenson said he landed on his surgically repaired back and received some treatment after developing a "knot" on his shoulder. "Part of basketball," Stevenson said. "He hit me and I fell straight on my back. I'm alright, though. I think it's just he's a big dude, small dude got fouled." At halftime, O'Neal apologized to Stevenson for nearly decapitating him. "I known Shaq since the summertime. We hung out a lot," Stevenson said. "Shaq's

The Other Side: Indiana Pacers

Fri, 6 Nov 2009 21:23:07 +0000

Like the Wizards, Indiana (1-3) has been dealing with injuries early in the season, with Mike Dunleavy still recovering from right knee surgery and Troy Murphy going down on Tuesday with a bruised lower back. The Pacers are coming off their first win of the season, defeating the New York Knicks, 101-89, on Wednesday. Here's what else you need to know about the Pacers. Thanks for giving me a little space, little man. (AP Photo) 1. This is a special night in Indianapolis as the Pacers will have a special tribute to the late Mel Simon, who with his brother Herb bought the team in 1983 and made sure it didn't leave. Indiana will also celebrate the 10th anniversary of the opening of Conseco Fieldhouse, which is one of, if not the coziest basketball venues in the NBA. Unfortunately for the Wizards, it's also a place where they haven't had

Nick Young to start vs. Indiana

Fri, 6 Nov 2009 20:06:43 +0000

In a rather surprising move, Wizards Coach Flip Saunders has decided to insert Nick Young into the starting lineup against Indiana in place of the injured Mike Miller. Miller sprained his left shoulder during the Wizards' 93-89 loss against the Miami Heat on Wednesday and isn't expected to return until next week at the earliest. Young didn't play against Miami, receiving his second DNP-Coach's Decision of the season, and has been used sparingly in the other three games. Young, a third-year guard, has scored just nine points in 27 minutes this season, after averaging 10.9 points last season. He started the preseason opener against Memphis but his inability to grasp Saunders's system on both ends of the floor pushed him out of the rotation. He missed his first nine field goal attempts of the season. Randy Foye started at shooting guard against New Jersey on Saturday but Saunders said he

New ESPN film highlights Reggie vs. Knicks

Wed, 4 Nov 2009 17:51:30 +0000

What you miss most about Reggie Miller is that Knicks fans no longer have a player they love to hate. Michael Jordan was feared. Hakeem Olajuwon was respected and Miller was hated. Film-maker Dan Klores gives us the opportunity to re-live the hatred in his new documentary "Winning Time: Reggie Miller vs. The New York Knicks" which will air in March as part of ESPN's 30 for 30 film series. At a private screening in Manhattan on Tuesday, you felt as if it were the mid-'90s again as John Starks head butts Miller and the fun begins. The film, which tells the story of two basketball crazed towns and the Pacers-Knicks rivalry through 1995, is excellent and Miller is the star of the documentary. He tells great stories about getting under Starks' skin and what it meant to represent the state of Indiana going up against Madison Square Garden and New York City. Of course, Spike Lee is featured in the film as well and there are several amusing scenes of Spike taunting Reggie. No two opponents ...
