Dirtlocker points for: Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett, Dwight Howard, Shaquille O'Neal

Larger-than-life likenesses of Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett and Dwight Howard -- a trilogy of NBA giants -- adorn one side of a downtown hotel. They tower over trolleys and tourists on Canal Street along the French Quarter's fringe. The mammoth images of the All-Stars are impressive and imposing, yet somehow seem incomplete.

I walked around a fair amount last night -- the traffic is pretty bad, and while I saw a massive police presence, I did not see any trouble. Haven't heard any stories, or read any articles either. The NBA has to be cautiously optimistic that their approach this weekend is succeeding. Also, one note: the place in the city with more police than anywhere else I have seen is immediately out...

NBA MVP Watch: OFD's candidates (via ArmchairGM)

The NBA has reached its midway point and that means it's time to look at the potential MVP candidates so far for this season. You can look at the MVP any way you want to; most valuable to the team, most valuable to the league, etc. I look at it as how would their team look without them? So your

With the NBA All-Star Game set to tip off this weekend, FIO humor writer Brian Lutz takes a different approach to typical mid-season reports and awards. Instead, play the NBA Numbers Game in this edition of B. Lutz's Sports Sound Off... including: the Celtics tremendous plays, Melo and AI pouring it on, Tim Duncan's playoff poise, and much more!

As a former player (Knick, Nugget, Bullet, Piston, and Bull) and head coach (Raptors and Wizards) New Orleans Hornets assistant coach Darrell Walker has shared the court, as player or coach, with some of the best NBA players in history -- including Michael Jordan, Isiah Thomas, and Joe Dumars.

Walker has a strong sense of who is, and who is not, a superstar. After working with him day...

NBA Davids to Goliaths (via Ball Hype)

Dirtlocker points for: Tim Duncan, Shaquille O'Neal

It's not often you see NBA trades or free agent moves that turn around the fortunes of teams fast. When you look at recent NBA champs (the Lakers, Spurs, Pistons and Heat) it was a combination of things that built them. The Spurs hit the draft lottery jackpot with Tim Duncan in 1997, while the Lakers and Heat won their titles with Shaq in the middle. Shaq went as a free agent to LA in 1996, ...

Daily Babble: Pugnacious Papoose Plays the Ultimate Intangibles Game (via Ball Hype)

Dirtlocker points for: Baron Davis, Tim Duncan

The effort on number 21 in black and silver will stand out over all else in looking back at an excellent regular season win on Sunday. The individual numbers will never show it, but Big Baby Davis frustrated Tim Duncan. The Tim Duncan. Arguably the best player of the last decade. Frustrated him just enough to allow the Celtics to beat TD's Spurs for just the second time in 19 tries.

Boston 98, San Antonio 90: Second-round draft pick Glen Davis did a fine job against Tim Duncan and the Celtics are now 16-0 against the West this season. Los Angeles Lakers 104, Miami 94: Matrix won the battle of the newbies (15 points, 14 boards, three steals and three blocks to Gasol's 12-7), but it wasn't [...]
