David Stern still dreaming of Europe Division

It is getting close to a year before David Stern steps down from his perch as the NBA's commissioner. For as much as Stern has accomplished, there is still the feeling that a lot of work is left to do. One of Stern's biggest legacies in his quarter century as the league's commissioner is the […]

Video: Kings’ Thomas and Thomas hook up for amazing ally-oop

Talk about one eye-opening ally-oop from Kings' Isaiah Thomas to teammate Thomas Robinson.

Jan. 15th brings the unofficial beginning of trade season

The NBA trade rumor mill has heated up a little earlier than expected thanks to Pau Gasol being the scape goat for the Lakers' troubles and Rudy Gay kinda, sorta getting made available.  But Tuesday was the day the NBA trade season unofficially started. Tuesday was the day that several players who re-signed with their […]

Clark not wasting his chance with Lakers

The Los Angeles Lakers got a much-needed win on Sunday against the Cleveland Cavaliers. They ended a six-game losing streak and held a team to less than 100 points for the first time in 2013.

Video: Durant decimates Suns’ Gortat

What do you get when you add Thunder's Kevin Durant, Suns' Marcin Gortat, and a clear path to the rim with Durant with the ball? You get quite possibly the dunk-of-the-year by KD. Late in the fourth quarter with OKC up big on the Suns, Durant blows past Michael Beasley en route to the rim […]

NBA schedule draws complaints

Last year, the NBA had to squeeze a condensed 66-game schedule into a small window because of the lockout.

This year, we are back to the normal 82-game schedule, but some are still critical of […]

Carmelo Anthony ends 15 day fast

New York Knicks star forward Carmelo Anthony revealed this week that he has just completed a 15-day fast. That is right, the guy that is averaging 32.3 points per game, 6.5 rebounds per game and 4.3 assists per game during January has been going without most food during that period. Apparently this is a yearly ritual for […]
