Should an NBA team take a flier on Stephon Marbury right now?

Stephon Marbury is doing well these days as a member of the Chinese Basketball Association. He led his Beijing team to the CBA championship last week, and scored 41 points in the series finale’ last Friday. That’s great for Steph. It’s also great that he’s been able to parlay his basketball career into an encouraging […]

Bynum injury not too serious, relief in Lakerland

Andrew Bynum injured his ankle on Sunday in Golden State after trying to block David Lee’s shot. It looked pretty bad at first, and the Los Angeles Lakers faithful let out a collective gasp upon the thought of Bynum being out for the season in response, but it turns out he won’t be. The X-rays […]

Michael Jordan could be on his way out as owner of Charlotte Bobcats

Nothing Michael Jordan can ever do will change his GOAT status as a player on the NBA’s basketball court. In the NBA’s boardroom, however, he has been an absolute train-wreck. Almost as bad as an executive, as he was great as a player, Jordan is currently pile-driving the Charlotte Bobcats into the NBA abyss this […]

MVP Race: Defining a Player as Most Valuable

Our modern dictionary describes the word “valuable” to me mean having qualities worthy of respect or esteem when used in terms of NBA Basketball players. In this same context, the word “most” technically refers to the greatest, as in size or extent. So who then, you ask, is the NBA Player with the greatest number […]

Brandon Jennings says Knicks are improved since Mike D’Antoni left

Mike D’Antoni once recommended against the idea of drafting Brandon Jennings. Jennings heard him say as much, and appears to have made a personal vow to never forgot that he did. Following the Bucks loss to the Knicks in New York on Monday, Jennings made mention of how much better these Knicks are now too […]

Nets’ back-up plans include Kevin Garnett, Ersan Ilyasova

First LeBron James said no to the New Jersey Nets, followed by Carmelo Anthony. Then Dwight Howard opted back in down in Orlando, and it appears Deron Williams can’t get out of there fast enough either. So what’s next for the re-branded Brooklyn Nets as they make their way to home of Biggie Smalls and […]

Roy Hibbert thinks his Pacers got their swagger back

Those were my words in the headline there, not Roy Hibbert’s. If you’ve ever talked with Roy, or heard him speak, you know he’s an all class true professional. I’m a blogger though, so I kinda changed him saying: we lost our way a little bit but we’re slowly regaining it – to read: Roy […]

Lamar Odom and Mark Cuban talk some more after Lamar gets DNP-CD’d

I suppose it’s a good thing that Mark Cuban is willing to sit and talk with his players about their feelings all the time. It’s also difficult to question the methods of the Dallas Mavericks owner these days too. He’s a billionaire CEO that just won and NBA Title, so I’ll go ahead and first […]

Nate McMillan is all class on his way out of Portland

They were the Jailblazers before he got there, it’s only fair people remember that. For as much as he did in Portland during his seven years as the Head Coach of the Trailblazers though, Nate McMillan was still fired last week anyways. He spoke to the media on Tuesday for the first time, and despite […]

Thunder closing in on deal with Derek Fisher

Derek Fisher is not a starting PG in the NBA anymore, and the masquerading around as such that he did in LA this past season was painful to watch at times. But, he is still an extremely valuable NBA back-up I think, especially for a contending team. The Oklahoma City Thunder appear to agree with […]

Denver Nuggets close to locking up Wilson Chandler after dealing Nene

The Denver Nuggets traded Nene yesterday, and in return they received JaVale McGee from the Washington Wizards. But, what they maybe also got out of the deal, was the financial space necessary to lock Wilson Chandler up long-term. Chandler had been in China hooping away in anonymity as the Lockout ended and the NBA season […]

So Phil Jackson’s going to go to New York now, right?

The New York Knicks need to hire a coach that Carmelo Anthony has no other option but to listen too. Mike D’Antoni, seemingly, had the support of Amar’e Stoudemire, Jeremy Lin, Baron Davis, maybe others, and it wasn’t enough to survive the fact that Melo didn’t want to run his offense. D’Antoni also made the […]
