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 […]

He took the NBA by storm with his dazzling passes and ability to hit the open shot but in an instant, Minnesota Timberwolves’ Ricky Rubio went down with a terrible knee injury. And with that, the winning spirit went out of the Timberwolves and their chance for a playoff appearance floated away. Now that the Timberwolves […]

Boston will have none of your small-ball, stretch-4 offense. The Celtics are as old school as it gets in the current NBA. I am not just talking about Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce. This is a team that will beat you with defense and pound the ball inside. The power forward is just another post […]

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 […]

Kevin Love has made his intentions with the Minnesota Timberwolves very clear. They either need to get better or he is jumping ship at the first chance he gets. Love signed a four-year, $62 million extension last season but gave himself the option of opting out after three years if he does not think the […]

It was a crushing blow to the Chicago Bulls’ title hopes last season when All-Star Derrick Rose dropped to the court in agony after suffering a devastating knee injury in the playoffs. Now, Rose has began the grueling process of coming back from the injury and though some reports have him coming back to the […]

When the Lakers traded for Steve Nash and as they continue to pursue Dwight Howard, much has been made of their salary cap situation and their lack of depth. Once the the Thunder eliminated the Lakers in the second round of the playoffs, rumors started flying immediately that the Lakers were going to trade Pau […]

Many top-tier free agents have been making moves but this addition by the Minnesota Timberwolves could be seen as an under-the-radar move which could prove to make huge dividends. Center Greg Stiemsma (restricted free agent) has decided to join the Timberwolves (offer is reportedly a multiyear deal believed to be near $3 million per season) […]

By this time in July, NBA fans have typically already seen the biggest moves go down. The NBA’s schedule makers are busy piecing together each team’s 82-game schedule and talking with the TV networks about the games they want. That whole process and the next stage of the NBA’s summer (perhaps the first stage, the […]

There is a lot going of NBA going on in Las Vegas. Summer League has been going on for a week now. In addition to the games, guys like Jermaine O’Neal are auditioning for clubs and teams are having face to face talks about trades since a heavy amount of general managers are all in […]

The Portland Trail Blazers made it pretty clear that Nicolas Batum is part of the future of their franchise, so it is not surprising they matched the Minnesota Timberwolves’ four-year, $46.5 million offer sheet. The talented young forward will remain in Portland for now. It is a smart move by the Blazers. Batum continues to […]

Jeremy Lin took the NBA world by storm in late January and February of this past season. Then he took the NBA world by storm with the contentious restricted free agency that saw him leave The Big Apple for Clutch City (awful memories of 1994 just came rushing back into The Empire State). The debate […]

Well, maybe we should not call these guys victims. The four players still available signed contracts above their value. Then they played so far below the value of their contract, they got waived, will still get paid their complete contract and make some more money from another team.  This summer we are talking about Darko […]
