The Spurs pretty much called it a season last night when they faced the Warriors as they sat Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, and Kawhi Leonard. Add the fact they also did not have Boris Diaw nor Manu Ginobili both out with injuries, it pretty much meant a loss for the Spurs and a nice win […]

This season, the second year pro is currently averaging 22 points, 5.8 assists, 3.7 rebounds and shooting 45% from the field in 57 games for the Cavs. Not only […]

Not long after Kobe Bryant was injured, a lot of people started wondering out loud whether the Los Angeles Lakers should use their amnesty clause on Kobe Bryant, shedding the gigantic $30 million price tag off their salary cap figure for next season. The thought was it's Kobe's final year of his current deal and […]

Jordan played his college ball at Rutgers and was an on-and-off assistant there for a few seasons, so the moves make total sense For an embattled major public university like Rutgers, in the middle of an athletic scandal its administration has never seen before, rebuilding its stripped-down men's basketball program will be a massive, and […]

It was not quite what Dallas Mavericks fans wanted, but it is a nice consolation prize. The Mavs will be missing the playoffs for the first time in 13 years, but at least they finally made it to .500 so Dirk Nowitzki could shave away his "loser’s beard." Several Mavericks players made a pact in […]

Many NBA fans were probably introduced to Hugo the Hornet in editions of NBA Jam or NBA Showtime video games. The Hornets mascot was a perfect high flyer for the video games. As far as NBA mascots go, Hugo is one of the best in the NBA. Who else could make a Hornet not scary […]

Lakers' Kobe Bryant is already considered one of the most self-motivating player in the game. It doesn't take much for him to find an edge on the court to destroy the competition. And now that he is on the road to recovery after suffering a season-ending torn left Achilles heel injury, he is gathering up […]

"I can't walk," Bryant said. "I tried to maybe put pressure on my heel, but there was nothing there." Those words were the last thing Lakers fans did not want to hear as the team battles for a playoff spot. The Lakers have had a turbulent season with coaching changes, Dwight Howard not meshing with […]

TNT decided to experiment a little bit with its broadcast of last night's Thunder vs. Warriors game in Oakland, Calif.

Much success has been coming the Knicks way of late. A 50-game winning season since 1994, second seed in the playoffs, a strong squad led by Carmelo Anthony and versus the Bulls last night, some NBA history. During the first half in last night's game in Chicago, the Knicks connected on seven three-pointers which added […]

The potential move of the Sacramento Kings has been a long, winding process that has now involved fans in Sacramento, Anaheim, Seattle and, for a hot minute, Virginia Beach. Presumably it will come to a resolution next week when the NBA Board of Governors decides whether to approve the Kings move to Seattle. The Kings' […]
