Stat Line of the Night — 3/14/2013 — Tim Duncan
Tim Duncan took the night off on Tuesday during a game against the Minnesota Timberwolves, and while the decision to sit the future Hall of Famer resulted in a loss, it also provided the Spurs with a well-rested Duncan for last night’s contest against the Dallas Mavericks. Thanks to some fresh legs, Duncan dominated at [...]

Stat Line of the Night — 3/13/2013 — Adam Henrique
After putting together a solid rookie campaign, Adam Henrique has struggled to find his form during his sophomore season with the New Jersey Devils, as he entered last night’s game with just seven goals and three assists in 21 games. However, the Calder Trophy finalist has shown signs of regaining his offensive touch over the [...]

Stat Line of the Night — 3/12/2013 — Dwight Howard
Nothing seems to motivate a basketball player quite like playing on the road against their previous team in front of the fans that they used to call their own. We’ve seen Vince Carter do it to the Toronto Raptors. We’ve seen LeBron James do it to the Cleveland Cavaliers. And last night, it was the [...]

Stat Line of the Night — 3/11/2013 — Dustin Brown
The Los Angeles Kings continued their winning ways last night, defeating the Calgary Flames by a score of 3-1 to claim their 11th victory in their last 14 games. And on this occasion, it was captain Dustin Brown leading the charge for the defending Stanley Cup champions. Brown entered the game looking for his first [...]

Stat Line of the Night — 3/10/2013 — Chris Kunitz
Playing alongside Sidney Crosby sure does have its perks. Chris Kunitz has found that out firsthand this season, as the Penguins forward entered Sunday with 14 goals and 31 points in his first 25 games this season. And he added to each of those totals in a big way during yesterday’s match-up with the New [...]

Stat Line of the Night — 3/7/2013 — Alex Ovechkin
After starting off the lockout-shortened 2012-13 NHL season with just four points in his first eight games, and ten points in his first 16, many wondered whether we had seen the last of Alex Ovechkin‘s dominance at the offensive end of NHL rinks. Apparently, we haven’t. The Russian sniper entered last night with three goals [...]

Stat Line of the Night — 3/6/2013 — Kobe Bryant
Kobe Bryant went into last night’s game against the New Orleans Hornets with a nagging elbow injury. He came out of it with one of his most impressive performances of the season. The Lakers trailed the Hornets by as much as 25 points, and with 6:22 remaining in the game they found themselves trailing by a score [...]

Stat Line of the Night — 3/5/2013 — Russell Westbrook
Defending against the Oklahoma City Thunder’s offense is no easy task and the Los Angeles Lakers learned that lesson firsthand last night. Sure, they were able to hold the NBA’s top scorer, Kevin Durant, to just(?) 26 points, but they had no answer for Russell Westbrook. The Thunder’s all-star guard was having his way with [...]

Stat Line of the Night — 3/4/2013 — Jeff Carter
After losing their first three games, and seven of their first ten to start the lockout-shortened season, the Los Angeles Kings’ chances of repeating as Stanley Cup champions were not looking good. But they have since turned things around, as they finished the month of February off with a five-game winning streak, and they recorded [...]
-
Stat Line of the Night — 3/3/2013 — LeBron James
For a brief moment during the third quarter of yesterday afternoon’s NBA match-up between the Miami Heat and the New York Knicks, Heat fans everywhere held their collective breath as they watched LeBron James lay on the court in pain after landing awkwardly following an alley-oop attempt. It appeared as though LeBron’s season, and the [...]

Stat Line of the Night — 2/28/2013 — Joakim Noah
Heading into Thursday, only three players in the last 25 years have recorded a triple-double with at least 20 points, 20 rebounds and 10 blocks (Shaquille O,Neal, Hakeem Olajuwon and Shawn Bradley). Last night during a game against the Philadelphia 76ers, Chicago Bulls center Joakim Noah became the fourth. Noah was hosting his own block [...]

Stat Line of the Night — 2/27/2013 — Stephen Curry
When picking a deserving candidate for the “Stat Line of the Night,” we often look at players who put up solid numbers for the winning team. But in Stephen Curry’s case, we’ll make an exception. You see, during last night’s game against the New York Knicks, Curry not only delivered the best offensive performance of the night, [...]
-
Stat Line of the Night — 2/26/2013 — Tomas Kopecky
The Pittsburgh Penguins entered last night with the chance to move back atop the Eastern Conference standings with a victory over the Florida Panthers, but unfortunately for them, Panthers center Tomas Kopecky had other ideas His his 436 previous NHL appearances, Kopecky had never scored a hat-trick, but game #437 turned out to be a [...]
-
Stat Line of the Night — 2/25/2013 — Roman Josi
The Nashville Predators’ offense has been struggling mightily this season. Heading into last night, the Preds were averaging a league-worst 2.05 goals per game and they were in the midst of a 120-minute goalless streak. But with defenseman Roman Josi leading the charge, the Preds were able to regain their scoring touch at the expense of the [...]

Stat Line of the Night — 2/24/2013 — Kobe Bryant
Prior to yesterday’s NBA match-up between the Dallas Mavericks and the Los Angeles Lakers, Mavs owner Mark Cuban suggested that the Lakers should consider using the amnesty clause on Kobe Bryant. Well, let’s just say that perhaps Cuban should have waited until after the game to open his mouth, because his comments seemed to inspire [...]
