Really “Psycho T”? Raptors guard Lou Williams was leading the fast break and had big man Tyler Hansbrough trailing. Lou then made a nifty pass to Hansbrough and instead of gathering the ball and throwing it down with a vicious dunk… well… hmmm… just look at how he handled the situation. (slow clap)

TNT’s Charles Barkley is known for not holding back and letting everyone know what’s on his mind. Case in point — his recent rant on Rockets GM Daryl Morey and his use of analytics. Basically, Barkley responded to

Seriously, do the Thunder have a handshake coordinator on staff? I ask because a couple of OKC players put on a handshake clinic that is so elaborate, it boggles the mind. Check this out! I think our fearless leader here at Crossover, Ben, needs to get us writers to come up with something just as […]

My goodness! The Suns’ Markieff Morris decided to make the Houston Rockets’ Josh Smith feel his presence in the paint as Morris obliterated Smith with one thunderous dunk. It was so sick, the TV announcers got into it, the fans in the arena got excited, and the Suns bench exploded.

The 2015 NBA All-Star game is a few weeks away and may be in NYC but the Sixers’ K.J. McDaniels give a dunk-contest worthy slam against the Warriors. In other words, he went Tracy McGrady with the self alley-oop, you know, a fling to the backboard, right back to him for the alley-oop that got […]

The Suns have been a good team this season, but they could be sporting a much better record had the ball not have taken a kind bounce or more luck was on their side and not their opponent’s. The Suns are 29-24 but… well… let’s just say the basketball gods have not been kind to […]

It’s the little things in life and even in the NBA. Sure there’s scoring, dunks, rebounds, and pinpoint assists, but for the Grizzlies’ Tony Allen, it’s turnovers that get him going. Or should I say, dancing. Check out the defensive stopper getting super hyped over a turnover versus the East-leading Hawks.

There’s no doubt Clippers’ Chris Paul is one feisty player on the court. He doesn’t back down, will get in the faces of players, and hands out copious amounts of trash-talk. However, he certainly picked the wrong time to do a stare down at OKC’s Kevin Durant during their recent clash. With the Clippers down […]

Awww cold refreshing beer. So smooth, so crisp, so thirst quenching that it just feels so good going down. But for one Wizards fan, he took enjoying beer to a whole new level courtesy of the Nets’ Mason Plumlee as he crashed into a sideline server and knocked the plate full of beer all over […]

Want to see every single Pelicans fans have a heart attack or faint? Play this video for them. During Saturday’s Pelicans-Bulls game, Davis threw down a massive alley-oop dunk but his landing was not as elegant. Check out Davis slamming to the floor, making Pelicans fans pass out. He left the game with a shoulder […]

Well this is a sight for sore eyes if you are a Sixers fan.

Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich is known for his short, surly, and often mean-spirited interviews with media. Well it looks like the Clippers’ Matt Barnes took a page out of Pop’s book with his version surliest and short interview with a local L.A. reporter. To Matt’s credit, he was just getting over a dispute with […]
Can Kevin McHale get this man to commit himself to the defensive end of the floor and, in the process, become the complete two-way player he is capable of becoming? No question facing the Houston Rockets is more urgent than that one.

So if you needed more proof that Houston’s James Harden is a leading candidate for the NBA MVP, then check out this play he recently had versus the Bucks. First he fakes out one player off the three point line, then he drives to the lane only to fake pass a Bucks’ player right out […]

He has a great inside the paint game, a nice mid-range game, but it seems the Pelicans’ Anthony Davis also has it going from the three point line. Against the Thunder, the Pelicans had 1.2 seconds left in the game clock, but instead of passing it to one of their known three-point marksman, they in-bound […]

Usually when an NBA player posterizies another player, it’s with power, force, a thunderous clap and most of all, brings the fans off their seats. But when Spurs’ Kawhi Leonard dunks on players, it’s more silky-smooth and suave. Take his dunk on the Magic where he threw it down, but in a more laid back […]
