Fourth investor emerges in Sacramento’s bid to keep Kings

The mood in California's capitol has never been one that is resigned to the fact the Sacramento Kings are likely moving. Led by Mayor Kevin Johnson, Kings fans have remained stubbornly hopeful and slightly confident that the team is staying put. In the last few days however, the fan base and local leaders have become […]

Kevin Love could return, but probably shouldn’t

We have only seen Kevin Love play 18 games for the Minnesota Timberwolves this season, and there is a chance that may not change before the year is over. Love broke bones in his shooting hand before the season started and then broke the same bones again in a game against the Denver Nuggets on […]

Will Wall get the max? Absolutely

Definition of a max player is still something that is a bit fluid. There are your sure-fire max guys — the superstars that undoubtedly are being unpaid by a max contract. There are your borderline guys, but still solid All Stars. And then there are the fringe guys. Players with tons of potential and ability, […]

Video: Rockets’ Smith puts Splitter on a poster

It must be the month of posterizations in the NBA. Not only did we have the DeAndre Jordan dunk on Brandon Knight and the LeBron James facial on Jason Terry now we can add Rockets' Greg Smith to the list of dunkers who decimated players in the paint. During last night's Spurs-Rockets matchup, the game […]

Gallinari says Karl is ‘not happy’ with team lately

It’s a shame the Miami Heat have overshadowed what the Denver Nuggets are doing. If the Heat weren’t chasing down an NBA record for consecutive wins, we’d all be talking about the Nuggets a lot more. Denver is currently on a 15-game win streak, which is extremely impressive when you consider: A) how bad the […]

CC video of the day: James Harden’s game-winning shot vs. Spurs

Heading into the contest versus the Spurs, the Rockets probably were not given much of a chance considering the Spurs have won the first three meetings this season.

Sunday Standings Watch: Effect of a win streak

There are currently two win streaks of 15 or more games going on in the NBA right now, which is just crazy to think about this late in the season. The pressure is on for Playoff positioning and both the Heat and the Nuggets have lots and lots to play for. These win streaks have […]

Starting 5

Every morning, we will give you five things from the night before in the NBA to start your day. 1: Still the one There was a time when Chris Paul vs. Deron Williams was appointment television. There was a serious debate to settle after all. Who was the better point guard? The two are very […]

STAT-urday: Jazz out of tune

The Utah Jazz were flying high before the All-Star Break and comfortably sitting in that final Playoff spot. They had dreams of winning and moving up the standings to get better Playoff positioning.

Grizzlies doing just fine without Rudy Gay

When the Memphis Grizzlies dealt away their leading scorer, they were criticized for “giving up” on a season where they had a real chance. They responded by going 17-6 without Rudy Gay, and they have become even more of a contender in the last few weeks. Their recent success gets overshadowed by the current win […]

Warriors focus on long-term goal: Playoffs

Mark Jackson has seen plenty of Playoff battles. His Knicks and Pacers were staples in the Eastern Conference Finals throughout the 1990s. The wealth of his experience is something that is a clear resource to this growing Warriors team. Jackson has brought something resembling a championship attitude to the Warriors organization. This year is looking like it […]

CC video of the day: Fan runs on court during Cavs, Heat game

The Cavaliers almost ended the Heat's insane winning streak last night in Cleveland but it wasn't just the players on the court that had everyone's attention.
