Video: Carmelo’s Game-Winning Three Against Bulls
No Jeremy Lin, No Amar’e: Just Carmelo Anthony. And thanks to his 43 points and this absolutely cold-blooded 3-pointer against Chicago on Sunday, the Knicks are back to being Melo’s team. But you know what the best thing about that shot is? Anthony hit that same shot against Luol Deng two years again when he was still with the Nuggets. (see video here)

This is absolutely disheartening.
Music Video: Los – Wit My Hoodie On (Trayvon Martin Tribute)
Los came through with an highly inspirational track a couple weeks ago called “Wit My Hoodie On” during the Trayvon Martin case. And today, he decided to drop an inspirational video to go along with it. There’s no way that anyone could hate on Los’ music. And if they do, it’s only because they don’t understand his lyrics.

Mike Woodson On J.R. Smith: I Want His Shorts Pulled Up
The Allen Iverson clothing days in the league are over. Nowadays, players are walking into the arena wearing skinny jeans and pink t-shirts. But J.R. Smith? Well, he’s always been somewhat of a “sagger” when it comes to his shorts and jeans. Even with his basketball uniform. I watched Smith hoop for six years in Denver and I always noticed how his jersey and shorts were almost one size too big. It looks like Knicks interim coach Mike Woodson has taken notice, too:
“I told him I’m going to continue to coach him as long as I’m coaching the team,” Woodson said at the Thursday morning shootaround at Amway Center. “I told him I’m not going to let him off the hook. I want his shorts pulled up. I want him to look presentable. Be a professional. That’s what it’s all about.’’
House Divided: Magic Players Leaning Toward Van Gundy
I wrote earlier today that Orlando Magic head coach Stan Van Gundy addressed the rumors of Dwight Howard wanting him fired by stating that he was already told by management that Howard wants him gone. As of right now, the house is divided right now in South Florida, and that’s not a good thing since we’re only 12 games away from playoff basketball. It’s possible that tonight’s game against the Knicks could be Van Gundy’s last with the Magic, but Otis Smith certainly owes Stan to let him finish this season out and do the best they possibly can in the playoffs.
Dwight might want him out, but some of the other Magic players don’t. Especially the one’s that Stan has helped make a better player over the years (mainly his 3-point shooters). Brian K. Schmitz of the Orlando Sentinel reportedly interviewed players on how they felt about the situation, and surprisingly, some of the biggest names on the roster don’t want Stan to leave:
Stan Van Gundy Confirms Dwight Howard Wants Him Fired
Dwight Howard tried to do everything he could this year to not be ostracized like his pal LeBron James was when he decided to “Take his talents to South Beach.” Well, it looks like Howard has officially failed to do so. It was just yesterday when CBSSports.com revealed information about Dwight possibly wanting his head coach in Stan Van Gundy fired in hopes of bringing in another coach that could help lure an elite player to Orlando to better their chances at winning a championship.
Videos: Blake Griffin Kills Pau Gasol, Then Does It Again
We know who the best power forward in the league is already (i.e. Kevin Love), but the best in-game dunker in the league right now, hands down, is Blake Griffin. This kid is just ridiculous. And during the Lakers|Clippers game Wednesday night, Griffin kills Pau Gasol not only once, but twice. (The second really was murder)
Video: Ty Lawson Breaks Ryan Anderson’s Ankles
When Ty Lawson is aggressive, he makes Denver an elite team. Although the Magic were without Dwight Howard during their loss to the Nuggets on Sunday, it was Ty who dropped 25 points and 8 assists. He also dropped (literally) 3-point shooter Ryan Anderson, and he ended up leaving the game with an injury.
