It’s a busy time for Charlotte Bobcats’ General Manager Rich Cho and President of Basketball Operations Rod Higgins. Not only are they interviewing every available coaching candidate from here to China, Higgins is also taking meetings on “buy one season, get the next free” season tickets and both are scouting for the NBA Draft. The […]

The Brooklyn Nets had a simple plan. Acquire a star player like Deron Williams, sell him on the move to Brooklyn and the all-star, mega-billionaire ownership of Mikhail Prokhorov and Jay-Z, and then work on acquiring a second superstar player to make the move to the Barclays Center complete. That task was accomplished by clearing […]

Every morning, we’ll give you five things from the night before in the NBA to start your day. 1:  We’re all starting over The Spurs and Thunder start over with a “Best of 3” series that begins tonight in San Antonio.  This has been an amazing series that shows the mighty Spurs also bleed.  Home […]

After going up 2-0 on the Boston Celtics, the Miami Heat looked primed to take the series and advance to the 2012 NBA Finals. However, once the series shifted to Boston, the Celtics were able to hold home court and ties the Eastern Conference Finals at 2-2 as the series will now shift to Miami […]

Oklahoma City is thrilled with their Thunder these days. The fans all wear the same t-shirts to every home game, and stand cheering in unison until their faces are more blue than Kevin Durant’s uniform. That energy helped OKC get a much needed win over the Spurs last night, to cut San Antonio’s lead in […]

There’s no denying Boston Celtics’ Kevin Garnett has always brought intensity to the court. From his days with the Minnesota Timberwolves to his time in Boston, KG is known as one of the best at his position and an all-around player. But according to his former teammate, Wally Szczerbiak, KG always has lacked the “clutch-gene” […]

So you live in Charlotte. Your basketball team just won seven games for an entire season and, even in a shortened season, still managed to set the record for worst winning percentage in NBA history. Your owner is the greatest basketball player of all time, but does not have a great track record running a […]

Every morning, we’ll give you five things from the night before in the NBA to start your day. 1:  The Spurs…… lose? This has to be some kind of special effect, right?  That was Hollywood CGI that made the Thunder fly all over the court and make more baskets than the Spurs, wasn’t it? After […]

Trading Lamar Odom to the Dallas Mavericks clearly wasn’t good for anyone. The Lakers missed their Sixth Man of the Year, Odom missed L.A. and the Mavericks missed out on a legitimate chance to defend their title. That wasn’t all Odom’s fault but he clearly wasn’t happy playing in Dallas and it showed. Odom’s attitude […]

He’s Larry freaking Bird, first of all. But not only that, he’s also clearly separated himself as an executive from those legends who once played as his contemporaries. If he wants to come back, you let him come back. This isn’t Isiah Thomas or Michael Jordan looking to stay on as President of Basketball Operations […]

Call it a conspiracy, call it karma for a team that didn’t tank, either way it doesn’t matter.  The New Orleans Hornets won the NBA Draft Lottery and will soon have a new cornerstone to their franchise. For a franchise that’s been in flux for the last three years or so, it was a great […]

If there was one team that could use the re-assurance of some lottery luck, it felt like Phoenix was that team. OK, so a whole lot of teams who just missed out on the Playoffs like the Suns did could have used the safety blanket of a top 3 pick. Many of those teams though […]

Every morning, we’ll give you five things from the night before in the NBA to start your day. 1.  Heat have just enough The Heat looked plenty vulnerable last night to a Celtics attack that featured an historic Rondo (specifics on him a little later one), and scattered contributions from the rest of Boston’s Big […]

Now is probably not the best time to be commenting on basketball players’ overall IQs (although Tim Duncan DID graduate in four years from Wake Forest). Now is the time to go on the court and show what you got. The Playoffs are a grueling challenge for every player. Your weaknesses are exposed more and […]
