Every morning, we will give you five things from the night before in the NBA to start your day. 1: Rondo's streak ends with scuffle, Celtics reign too? It is probably a little too early to declare Boston's reign at the top of the Atlantic Division over. Rumors of the Celtics' demise have been shot […]

With the Nets up 51-35 in the first half of their game against the Celtics last night, tempers flared when Nets' Kris Humphries fouled Celtics' Kevin Garnett sending him crashing to the floor. Rajon Rondo didn't take to kindly to Humphries' foul on his teammate and that's when a brawl broke out.  Boston head coach […]

Houston Rockets (7-7) vs. Oklahoma City Thunder (11-4) 8 p.m./NBATV Oh, hey there, James. Did not even notice you are gone. Why are you wearing red? There is a game tonight. Huh? You got traded. I thought you looked less beard-y coming off the bench. Tonight, James Harden returns to Oklahoma City for the first […]

Seems despite playing overseas in Turkey and a couple of stops in the NBA, Omer Asik still hasn't learned which basket is the aim when scoring for his team. In last night's Rockets-Raptors matchup, Asik tipped in the ball for Toronto in the second quarter but what is hilarious is how emphatic he was going […]

Every morning, we will give you five things from the night before in the NBA to start your day. 1: Brand, Collison come off the bench, fails to jump start Dallas Dallas does not have Dirk Nowitzki, and so any thoughts of making final statements or analysis of the team is likely incomplete. O.J. Mayo […]

With the college basketball season now a few weeks old, evaluating draft prospects can actually get going in earnest.  Every team has played at a couple of games, most have played more.  Before the season started, both Jonathan Givony of DraftExpress and Chad Ford of ESPN both had, in some order, Nerlens Noel of Kentucky, […]

Indiana Pacers (6-8) vs. Los Angeles Lakers (7-7) 10:30 p.m. There was a time this offseason when Indiana was thought to be the second best team (at least for the regular season) in the Eastern Conference. This was a young team, committed to defense and able to find scoring from just about anywhere. David West, […]

The Washington Wizards are finding it hard to get that first win of the season. Sitting at 0-12 has to be embarrassing enough. But for Wizards forward Jan Vesely, it gets even worse. To call Vesely a bust would be an understatement. Washington took him with the sixth overall pick in last year’s draft and […]

The Lakers are still in upheaval and getting used to their new coach. The last thing Mike D'Antoni probably wants to do at this point is make things worse and bring more change. D'Antoni has no plans for any more changes to the Lakers coaching staff. He said last week that he plans to keep […]

This is just totally embarassing for Celtics' Paul Pierce and it came courtesy of Magic's Jameer Nelson. Let's set it up: The scene: Orlando, FL, Amway Center The victim: Boston's Paul Pierce The outcome: Pierce gets decimated by a hesitation move by Nelson which causes his ankle to get shattered along with his knee to […]

Every morning, we will give you five things from the night before in the NBA to start your day. 1: Brooklyn's town The long-awaited Knicks-Nets game lived up to its billing in the way only a game in New York could. The two teams from the City that Never Sleeps went back and forth and […]

New York Knicks (9-3) vs. Brooklyn Nets (8-4) 7 p.m./TNT At long last, the Knicks and Nets will meet in the battle of New York. A new rivalry is born and the excitement in The Big Apple is pretty palpable. TNT reported on its pregame show that Raymond Felton compares the excitement for this rivalry […]
