JaVale McGee, affectionately dubbed by the Crossover Chronicle writers as “JaVale the Fail Whale,” has moved away from the circus act that is the Washington Wizards. Last season he was traded to the Denver Nuggets for a chance to reinvent himself as a player and move past his series of hilariously epic failures (definitely watch […]

When Carmelo Anthony was traded to the New York Knicks a couple of seasons ago, fans and even some in the media pegged it as the move that made the Knicks an instant threat. Melo, they said, was the superstar New York needed to carry them deep into the playoffs and back to respectability. But […]

Andre Iguodala is near the top of a lot of most underrated catergories. He is the most underrated wing defender in the league (he is the best wing defender in the league and did not make either NBA Defensive Team). He was the most underrated member of both the 2010 and 2012 Team USA Gold […]

A lot of attention has been paid to big men this summer. Dwight Howard went to Los Angeles in the trade that sent Andrew Bynum Philadelphia. Roy Hibbert and Brook Lopez got max contract extensions. Even Omer Asik turned heads as part of Houston's July poison pill parade. It has been a big summer […]

A fresh start could not have come at a better time for Marvin Williams. For the previous six season, Williams languished between a breakout performer with range and trying to slide out from underneath the microscope after the Atlanta Hawks selected him as the second overall pick in the 2005 NBA Draft after one season […]

For 18 years he poured his heart and soul for the Utah Jazz and became an unstoppable force in the paint.

The big question for the Knicks […]

Derrick Williams’ first year in the NBA was marked with inconsistency. The rookie out of Arizona appeared in every game last season for the Minnesota Timberwolves, but if you made a graph of the minutes he played, it would look like a mountain range. Williams had some brilliant performances, including a 27-point game against the […]
