P.J. Carlesimo says the Brooklyn Nets' goal of winning a championship within the next two years is "maybe not totally realistic," though he believes they are a contender in the Eastern Conference.
Carlesimo went 35-19 as interim coach after Avery Johnson was fired in December, but the Nets told h
When the Miami Heat faced the Indiana Pacers in the playoffs last season, the series featured two suspensions, a host of flagrant fouls and plenty of blood. It appears the Eastern Conference finals between the teams already is heating up.

This time it was unanimous for LeBron James.

A muddied American flag rested atop the metal pole that stood defiantly at the corner.
Its peaceful position contradicted perfectly the catastrophic winds that only two days earlier had ripped through town, leaving this block utterly unidentifiable, one of many that have been reduced to rubble.
For a fleeting moment he was the hero.
He was the calm, clutch 23-year-old All-Star who had not only drained a prayer of a 3-pointer to force overtime, but the one who stepped to the free throw line late in overtime and hit three straight to give the Indiana Pacers an improbable one-point lead.
