Orlando Magic fans have seen this movie before.  A dominant center shackled by missteps and some bad luck takes off for brighter lights and a bigger city.  That did not work out well for them.   Now they’ve gotten a second chance.  The most dominant center of our generation again resides in Orlando.  And… well…..

David Stern knows the league is coming up against it now. The players know the season — and their paychecks — are in jeopardy. Pressure is mounting as the league has canceled games. With deadlines slowly passing, the pressure to get a deal done is slowly dissipating. The parties at this point have likely tired […]

As a brand that has been struggling to keep pace with Nike over the last decade or so, this isn’t the best time for the NBA to shut things down on Adidas.  Their featured pitchman Derrick Rose is the League’s reigning MVP, the adiZero Rose 2 just dropped, and both he and his Bulls show no […]

What I am about to tell you is true and is not pulled from the satirical pages of The Onion.  Famed conditioning coach Tim Grover says Eddy Curry is in excellent shape. Yes, you read that correctly. Curry, often the punch-line in fat jokes, is in shape and if true, he just might land himself […]

October is supposed to be a good time for Ernie Johnson. The celebrated host of TNT’s Inside the NBA is typically preparing for an NBA season full of the normal chaos that comes from officiating Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley on the weekly postgame wrap up.

Since the NBA is locked out and football is in full swing, we decided to put together our list of who we think would start on a 22-man NFL Football team consisting completely of current NBA players. We broke it down into five parts, and this is the final installment. For more on the Defensive […]

The New York Knicks’ history is flooded with many NBA legends, and memories. From Bill Bradley, Patrick Ewing, and Willis Reed to two NBA titles, MSG, and Walt Frazier’s glorious suits, it all adds up to one undeniable fact, this franchise boasts memories to last a lifetime. And apparently it also means Knicks collectibles can […]

On November 1, the Dallas Mavericks were supposed to have their banner night. Celebrations would be had. Memories would be shared. Good times had by all. The crowning achievement for Mark Cuban, Dirk Nowitzki, Donnie Nelson and a host of other longtime Dallas Mavericks and their fans who had quietly dominated the NBA for a […]
