Ranking the NBA’s uniforms

ESPN’s Paul Lukas recently did a ranking of the uniforms of all the teams of the four major pro sports leagues: the NBA, NHL, MLB and NFL. Lukas admits his bias without hesitation, which is good because it’s a very arbitrary list. It is all about style preference and he is really just ranking clothes, […]

Kevin Durant isn’t waiting around for his time

Kevin Durant vs. LeBron James is shaping up to be one of the greater basketball rivalries of all time. While James currently has the upper hand, winning last season’s MVP and the NBA Finals against Durant’s Oklahoma City Thunder, it is still a close gap. Durant won the scoring title for the third year in […]

Wade: LeBron has a long way to go to reach Jordan

Now that the Olympics are over and we can stop debating who would win between the 2012 American team and the 1992 Dream Team, we can return to another argument that will never be solved: LeBron vs. MJ. After LeBron James won his first NBA Championship last season and the Miami Heat look like they […]

Mike Brown already on the hot seat

The expectations for the Lakers this season are already through the roof. Multiply that by the fact that they play in L.A., a city that won’t be satisfied with anything but a championship, and you have a lot of pressure put on the players and the coach. Lakers head coach Mike Brown knows that he’s […]

Will the Thunder pay up for a championship?

Last week we talked about how much the Los Angeles Lakers will have to pay in taxes if they want to keep the team they currently have together. It’s a lot of money but the Lakers might think it’s worth it if they can take home a title. Plus, it’s Los Angeles and paying that […]

Baron Davis hopes to return this season

You cannot help but cringe when watching Baron Davis’ knee injury from last season’s playoffs (Disclaimer: not for the squeamish). The 33-year old tore his ACL and MCL while driving to the basket in a playoff game against the Miami Heat. The recovery time for this type of injury is supposed to be a full […]

What does Iggy bring to the Nuggets?

Lost in all the hype of Dwight Howard heading to the Lakers was a move that helped another Western Conference team as well. The Denver Nuggets picking up Andre Iguodala is part of the trade that deserves a lot more attention than it is getting. Iguodala’s game is not one you would immediately think meshes […]

Some teams may be interested in Greg Oden

I would say it is unlikely that Greg Oden is ever going to shed his reputation as one of the worst draft picks of all time. He has already missed too much of his career and who knows if he will ever even see the floor again. Plus the guy that was picked behind him […]

Rose improving his shot during healing process

An injury as bad as what Derrick Rose went through is going to take it’s toll in more ways than one. Since he’s going to be out for almost a year, he’s going to lose a lot of strength and conditioning that he’s built up for years. He’ll lose his explosiveness and jumping ability and […]

Jimmer looking to step up in sophomore season

There’s a lot of pressure on rookies coming into the league that are lottery picks. They’re expected to make immediate contributions and even in some cases expected to change the luck of an entire team. Jimmer Fredette wasn’t expected to turn the Sacramento Kings into a title contender or maybe not even a playoff team, […]

Avery Bradley will miss Ray Allen

Avery Bradley has come a long way during his two years as a member of the Boston Celtics. When he was a rookie, he average just over five minutes a game. He was one of the last guys on the bench. But towards the end of this season his role increased more and more as […]

J.R. Smith thinks the Knicks can win it all

After landing the 7-seed and nearly getting swept out of the playoffs in the first round by the Miami Heat, it’s hard to say the New York Knicks can make the jump to championship contender next season. Well, J.R. Smith is saying it. "Right now with the talent we have, what it says on paper […]

Kenyon Martin looking for a new home

The Olympics have taken center stage in the basketball world for now, but once they’re over, it’s going to be time to start thinking about the next NBA season. I know, quick turnaround, huh? Most of the big free agents signed with teams (new and old) before the Olympics started, but there are still a […]

Barbosa could be good fit for Cavs

Right now, Leandro Barbosa is in London trying to help Brazil win a medal in basketball. Although, if you’ve ever watched him play, you would think he’d be just as comfortable out on the track. The “Brazilian Blur” has found success in the NBA being one of the fastest guys out on the court. Barbosa […]

People still making jokes about Kobe Bryant’s rape case

Kobe Bryant has come a long way trying to move past his infamous incident in 2003 where he was accused of raping a woman in a Colorado hotel room. For the most part, he’s done a good job, but that doesn’t mean there won’t still be jokes about it. The latest of these jokes came […]
