It is said that Stan Van Gundy will step in the East in the ALL-STAR game as a coach after the Orlando Magic led Atlanta for the second-best record in the conference through January.
The Magic improved to 32-16 with their 91-86 victory at Detroit on Sunday. Atlanta was idle Sunday and finished January with a 30-16 mark (.652). Cleveland has the best record in the East, but Cavaliers coach Mike Brown is ineligible after coaching in last year’s All-Star game. Van Gundy will coach his second All-Star game on Feb. 14 at Cowboys Stadium, having led the East to a 10-point win in 2005 when he was Miami’s coach.
I like magic jerseys.

Arenas banned for taking a gun
Gilbert Arenas and Javaris Crittenton were still waiting for their chance as the other players with the wizards jerseys going through the so called “workmanlike practice” Thursday.
Arenas and Crittenton were suspended for the rest of the season. Saunders said they’ve become at times … emotionally and mentally worn down and It’s almost like a boxer: They continue to take body punches, and eventually what it does, it just wears them down. Saunders said the “waiting and not knowing” what Stern’s ruling would be was in some ways more difficult than hearing the news Wednesday.
No matter how the excuse is, it's an embarrassment. But they are still going to go out there and play, so they still have a chance to make the playoffs.

Reggie Wayne is ready
May all the players with colts jerseys are eady to take another trip to Revis Island, including Reggie Wayne.
The Indianapolis receiver is trying his best to prepare for the trip and earn an expense paid trip to Miami. It's more likely an adventure for this Colts star. Wayne said Revis 's going to make him play his best. He accepts the chalenge. He feels like he's one of the best. He's going to make him play at his best, so it's going to be exciting. As a four-time Pro-Bowler, Wayne has a lot to prove Sunday in the marquee matchup at the AFC championship game. All season Revis only allowed one touchdown.
It's a fun adventurefor both of the guys.

Wade Phillips has another two years
Players with dallas cowboys jerseys will be coached by Wade Philipsfor the next two years. The two-year contract signs that Jerry Jones is just encouraged.
Phillips led the Cowboys won two NFC East titles in three years and two weeks ago got their first plyoff victory since 1996, which was the season after their last Super Bowl. Jones said they want to build on the foundation they have put in place over the last three years and he wants to take advantage of the continuity. Phillips did not care it's one year or two years. What he wants to do is just to bring the Cowboys to a new top.
This is the longest head coaching stint for Phillips. He had been in Buffalo for three seasons, then New Orleans and Atlanta.

Saints never shaken
Playoff opener was not beyond the control of New Orleans Saints who own nine double-digit victories during the regular season.
Saints receiver Marques Colston said that anyone in that locker room ever lost confidence in what they were capable of doing and they knew the formula and it was just a matter of putting it together for 60 minutes. Colston and his teammates reviewed the 45-14 rout of the Arizona Cardinals in Saturday’s divisional playoff game New Orleans training center on Sunday. Saints had never been to a Super Bowl, so they would try their best this time to prepare to host the Minnesota Vikings (13-4) in the first NFC championship game held in New Orleans next Sunday evening.
All the players with saints jerseys believed their balance in who they can count on to make big plays taking them going so far.
