 Will “Big Baby” Take His First Steps In The Finals In Game Six?
In the column that I wrote just before the NBA Finals began, It's Back To The Future As Celtics Host Lakers In Finals I predicted the Boston Celtics to win the series in seven games. After Boston won game four in stunning fashion, coming back from a 24 point deficit to defeat the Los Angeles Lakers 97-91, I amended my prediction. I told my friends, both in and out of the media, that ... [link]

June 16th, 2008 – Dr. Browntorious Well it wasn’t pretty now was it? But a win is still a win, and the season is still alive for the Lakers. Unfortunately for Lakers fans all of those questions regarding Kobe Bryant’s offensive performance thus far in this series have still not been answered.

TBL After Dark: NBA Finals Game 5
I tried to write the intro for this post earlier this afternoon, but my prediction of Kendrick Perkins scoring 36 on the way to a big Celtics lead at the half didn’t exactly pan out. We’ve had some surprises early. First Kobe came out and hit more three’s in the first quarter than he’s hit in the entire series. Then the Lakers built a 20-point lead. Then Phil ...

Weekend ratings predictions.
First, the results of last week's predictions. NBA on ABC, Lakers/Celtics. Prediction: 9.2. Final rating: 8.5. Ratings for the NBA Finals are well under expectations, but the games are still doing very well in the ratings. Game 2 on Sunday was the lowest rated of the series, drawing an 8.5, but still won the night and gave ABC its best Sunday night ratings among key male demos in over two years,
NBA Finals 2008: Show Ray Allen the Love; Irony for Allen and Garnett
June 13, 2008 – Dr. J-Water When the NBA Finals began I stated that the key to this series was whether or not Kobe Bryant could defend Ray Allen. As Game 4 is now in the books and the Celtics are leading the Lakers 3-1, I guess the answer is no. I received multiple emails and messages from readers of The Hoop Doctors who thought I was focusing on the wrong Celtic player, as both Paul ...

For one, you had good old Jack sitting in his usual courtside seats cheering away. Second, you saw the fans going absolutely crazy. Third you saw Odom and Gasol crash the boards. Fourth you saw ...
NBA Finals 2008: Game 3 – Lakers make adjustments, Kobe attacks the rim
June 10th, 2008 – Dr. Dime Kobe Bryant and company need to attack the rim more . Check. Kobe came out to start this game with one intention in mind. Go hard to the rim, using his athleticism, and absolutely punish the opposition. And it worked. Kobe closed the game with 18 free throw attempts, only a couple shy of the number of attempts the entire Lakers team had in Game 2. The ...
NBA Finals 2008: Game 3 Preview – ‘There’s No Place like Home’
June 10th, 2008 – Dr. Browntorious The Staples Center will be an overwhelmingly welcome sight for the Los Angeles Lakers tonight. Everyone knows “there’s no place like home,” which is probably even truer during this epic playoff run than in most past years. During the 2008 NBA Playoffs we have seen the home team win a staggering 63 out of 82 games. 77% of the time the home team has ...

I am sorry Pau Gasol for calling you “soft.” I also apologize on behalf of the other writers at The Hoop Doctors who have ever called you soft.
