NBA players shoot for championship

May 15, 2014 by Archived posts 6 Comments

By Elizabeth Piraino |Staff Writer| The NBA playoffs are in full swing as teams are finishing up each of their series. The Brooklyn Nets series with the Miami Heat at American Airlines arena came to an end in a losing effort. Unfortunately for the Nets, the Heat came through with less than five minutes to play to end the game and eliminated the Nets. Miami was down by eight points with 4:49 left in the game and came back with 12 unanswered points. The Heat put the game away for good when Ray Allen, the NBA 3-point leader, sank a three-point shot with 32-seconds to play. The Nets came within one point of tying the game when Joe Johnson hit a three-point shot with 11 seconds left to … [Read more...] about NBA players shoot for championship

Clippers destined to take NBA by storm

October 30, 2012 by Archived posts

By Jovani Gama |Sports Editor| If last season’s battle for Los Angeles was any indication as to what this year is going to look like, then basketball fans should be licking their chops in anticipation. After a few blockbuster acquisitions during the offseason that involved the arrival of Steve Nash, Dwight Howard, Jodie Meeks and Antawn Jamison, the Lakers enter the season with, not only what everyone not living in South Beach considers to be the best and most fearsome starting lineup in the league, but with a bolstered and revamped bench as well. 33 All-Star Game appearances, four Defensive Player of the Year Awards, and three Most Valuable Player Awards comprise said starting … [Read more...] about Clippers destined to take NBA by storm

By Jovani Gama |Sports Editor| With the Los Angeles Clippers breathing heavily on their backs, and the frightening possibility of facing the Memphis Grizzlies in the first round of the playoffs looming over their heads, the Los Angeles Lakers entered Sunday afternoon in a matchup against the Oklahoma City Thunder in what most would call a must win scenario. The game was decided after two overtime sessions. The Lakers ultimately prevailed with a 114–106 victory but their impressive victory was not the only thing that made headlines. For one, the fact that the Lakers won the game was not as astonishing as the fact that they climbed a seemingly insurmountable mountain in order to do … [Read more...] about Coyote Jock Talk: Strong playoff implications in the Lakers,Thunder matchup

Coyote Jock Talk: Move over Lakeshow, welcome to Lob City

March 8, 2012 by Archived posts 131 Comments

By Katherine Valadez |Staff Writer| Until now, L.A. has really had only one basketball team. The Lakers have always run the show, attracted the celebrities and made L.A. traffic even worse with their championship parades. It’s always been about that purple and gold, not whatever colors that other team in L.A. has on their jerseys. The Clippers really were more like a “half” team. They were just the cheaper option for L.A.’s basketball fans to see a live basketball game without having to pay over 100 bucks just to sit in the nosebleeds. But this season, Los Angeles has started to notice that not one, but two NBA teams play at the Staples Center. That fact alone shouldn’t be … [Read more...] about Coyote Jock Talk: Move over Lakeshow, welcome to Lob City
