Brandon Roy agreed to a 2-year $10.4 million contract to play for the Minnesota Timberwolves in early July. Prior to that, he spent this past season retired. Or was he ever really retired?  Despite the fact that everybody said Brandon Roy was retired, it turns out he wasn't. Sound confusing? It's not to Roy, who […]

Nate Robinson is coming off arguably the best statistical season of his career. He averaged a career best 4.5 assists per game this past year, and coupled that with 11. 2 points per night on average for the Golden State Warriors. According to a Sam Amick report this week, he is about to parlay that […]

Carmelo Anthony gets blamed for lots of things that are not his fault. Just ask him if you do not believe me. One thing in particular he has been unfairly ridiculed for recently is Jeremy Lin leaving New York for the Houston Rockets. Despite glossing Lin the Knicks' Rudy Rudiger in February, and then drowning […]

The NBA schedule was announced last night. All one thousand two hundred and thirty games that will be played next season now have times, dates, and locations associated with them. Here’s some other things that we know: Brooklyn will be hosting a Christmas Day game. Probably because they moved. The Nets will play the Celtics […]

Robin Lopez was drafted 15th overall by the Phoenix Suns in 2008. He hasn’t been horrible in Phoenix, but he hasn’t looked like a guy taken 15th overall either. Maybe some of that was the system. Maybe he’s been developing as a player. Maybe he’s not that good. We’ll find out shortly. Lopez was dealt […]

There’s probably a joke in here somewhere about Mikhail Prokhorov, scopes, and AK47’s but there’s no way I’m putting that one together. The former owner of the Russian superpower CSKA Moscow usually gets what he wants, and in this case he wants fellow countrymen Andrei Kirilenko to join him in Brooklyn. The Russian baller spent […]

Linsanity was huge because Jeremy Lin was balling out. There may have been a perfect storm in play, he may not ever be able to specifically duplicate that run, and history may tell us that Mike D’Antoni had a bigger hand in orchestrating the whole affair than anybody’s ever given him credit for. But Jeremy […]

The Los Angeles Clippers quietly filled out their roster with three veterans who should help LA take a step forward next season. Not necessarily help them step any closer to an NBA Title specifically, but certainly an incremental step forward in the least. The Clippers didn’t make any moves you would categorize as major this […]

Luis Scola is maybe the most underrated 15 and 8 big man in the NBA. In a world where Omer Asik gets paid like Patrick Ewing, and Roy Hibbert gets maxed out like a top-10 NBA player, the Suns locking Scola in for three years at just over $4 million per deserves a standing ovation. […]

Kobe Bryant recently said the 2012 Olympic Team could beat the 1992 Dream Team. His feelings probably boiled over while he watched everybody gush at how good those old guys were during NBATV’s documentary declaring their greatness last month. Why was Charles Barkley wearing bicycle shorts and a tank top as he strolled through the […]

Free agency wasn’t going initially well for Dallas. Deron Williams didn’t work out, nor did Jeremy Lin, Steve Nash, or any other Point Guard they tried to acquire. They didn’t appear to have enough ammo for a real shot at Dwight Howard, and then Jason Kidd left along with Jason Terry. But I do have […]

The New York Knicks needed front-court depth heading into the Free Agent Period. They addressed that need by locking into a 3-year $13.2 million guaranteed contract with Marcus Camby. Marcus Camby is 48-years old, under contract until he’s 51. He is expected to back up both Amar’e and Tyson, filling in at both the Power […]

Twitter is a tremendous tool. It is an amazing medium to exchange news and information, and connect on some level with people all over the world. It is also the worst thing ever though when idiots log on to spew hate as far as they can throw it. In a most recent event of ignorance, […]

Upon hearing the news that Jason Kidd has spurned the Dallas Mavericks in order to sign with Tyson Chandler, Amar’e Stoudemire, Carmelo Anthony and the Knicks, I believe a conversation similar to this one might be happening right now: Mavericks Front Office Guy: “No, seriously, Ramon is our guy. We wanted him the whole time”.  Ramon […]

Roy Hibbert averaged 12.8 points per game last season. He was an All Star Center in the Eastern Conference. Hibbert also finished the regular season averaging 8.8 rebounds and 2.0 blocks per night. He then elevated those numbers during the playoffs, posting 11.2 and 3.1 respectively. Roy should be paid much more than Omer Asik, […]
