When Jeremy Lin’s season ended early because of an injury that kept him out of the playoffs for the New York Knicks, “Linsanity” lost a lot of its luster. But when next season starts, I would imagine it will pick up right where it left off. The question is, will that be in New York […]

Just a few days after being drafted by the New Orleans Hornets with the first overall pick in this year’s draft, Anthony Davis has reportedly suffered an ankle injury that could keep him off the Olympic team. There are some conflicting reports about the severity of the injury at this time, anywhere from a light […]

Whether you have the first pick or the last pick, all teams look forward to draft night. Granted, some teams have been counting down the days until June 28 a lot longer than others. But now that the day is here, everyone should be focused and ready to go. There is a lot of pressure […]

The Oklahoma City Thunder will have to give up their second-round draft pick next year to the Boston Celtics as part of a ruling by NBA commissioner David Stern. Right before the trade deadline of the 2010-2011 season, the Celtics traded Kendrick Perkins and Nate Robinson to the Thunder for Jeff Green, Nenad Krstic and […]

Mike Tyson is getting ready for his career on Broadway. Although, if his one-man show includes any singing, he’ll have his audience wishing he had bitten their ears off. Tyson appeared on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” before the NBA Finals started to sing a tribute to LeBron James. Not to seem biased, he followed it up […]

Phoenix Suns point guard Steve Nash is going to be one of the top prizes of this year’s free agency period. The 38-year-old veteran proved this season that he can still play and still be a key building block in a team’s chance to be successful. He has said he does not want to stay […]

The Golden State Warriors have 4 picks in next week’s draft. There’s a lot of work to be done, but I would imagine they’re most excited about their lottery pick at number 7. There’s a decent-sized drop-off from Anthony Davis, who will surely be the top pick, to the rest of the field, but there’s […]

Mario Chalmers is a young guy on a team of superstars. He’s done well to settle into his role on the Miami Heat. He’s the starting point guard on the team, but there’s no doubt about who runs the offense, and it isn’t him. With all that being said, his performances in Game 2 and […]

Indiana Pacers center Roy Hibbert was one of the breakout players of this year’s playoffs. Hibbert will be a restricted free agent this offseason and since the talents of a true center are hard to come by these days, he’ll surely be on the radar of a lot of NBA teams. Hibbert was on the […]

After winning 4 in a row against a San Antonio Spurs team that hadn’t lost in a month and a half, the Oklahoma City Thunder looked like they were on a roll headed into the NBA Finals. They seemed pumped and ready to face a Miami Heat team that had just been beat up through […]

The Los Angeles Lakers were pointing fingers at just about everyone to take the blame for missing a chance at another championship after the Thunder knocked the Lakers out of the postseason. Los Angeles is not a patient city, so you can bet all the guys taking flack for not stepping up during the playoffs […]

Man, this series is off to a great start. Even when the Heat went up 16-2, you knew at some point, the Thunder would make it into a game. Oklahoma City waited almost the whole game, but they didn’t disappoint. The biggest difference I saw in last night’s game compared to Game 1 was the […]

One of the most interesting teams to watch this offseason will be the Boston Celtics. They have to face the decision of bringing back their aging veterans or letting their stars go and starting over. They were within one win of the NBA Finals, so it would be hard to make the argument that the […]

Dirk Nowitzki has set the mold for big guys that can shoot from the outside. He’s going to go into the Hall of Fame as one of the greatest shooters of all time, and he’s 7 feet tall. Last year he took over during the NBA Finals and this year he has to pass off […]

LeBron James has been criticized his whole career for not stepping up when it really matters. That’s the price you pay when some call you the best in the world. His constant disappearing acts down the stretches of big games have now become part of his calling card. Last year’s NBA Finals was no exception. […]
