Hawks make some more history

Not only are the Hawks the only team to go 17-0 during an entire month, but now the starting five are the only starting core to share Player of the Month honors. All the starters — DeMarre Carroll, Kyle Korver, Al Horford, Jeff Teague, and Paul Millsap — were in double figure scoring, but none […]

Watch the worst turnover of the season

Ughhhhh! Talk about the most absolute, bone-headed turnover you might ever see in an NBA game. While trying to in-bound the ball versus Minnesota, Miami’s Norris Cole and Hassan Whiteside were trying to get the ball in play. I repeat, trying! Cole in-bounded the ball to Whiteside, when Whiteside tossed the ball back, Cole has […]

OKC’s Westbrook doesn’t take kindly to being left hanging

Everyone knows that OKC’s Russell Westbrook can be a hot-head at times on the court. However, off the court, well, he can also be a bit surly if you leave him hanging after he is trying to slap hands. While coming off the court, Russell was giving high-fives to his teammate when one of his […]

Kyrie Irving is just showing off now

When word got out that LeBron James was returning to the Cavs, many were already frothing over the thought of James and Kyrie Irving teaming up for some special highlight worthy moments. Like this one! Irving was on the break and he had a trailing James. So what does Kyrie do? Oh just a fancy, […]

With a healthy core, Pelicans can make some noise in West

Monday night, the New Orleans Pelicans did something that no other NBA team had been able to do since December 26th, 2014 — beat the Atlanta Hawks. The Pelicans, still without Jrue Holiday, who has missed the last 11 games with an ankle injury that’s expected to keep him sidelined for the next two weeks […]

Adam Silver would be open to expanding All-Star rosters

With this year’s All-Star Game looming on the horizon, commissioner Adam Silver talked about the choice he had to make between Damian Lillard and DeMarcus Cousins in the West once Kobe Bryant went down with this torn rotator cuff. “That I had to decide between DeMarcus Cousins and Damian Lillard. I didn’t like having to […]

Clippers’ Griffin fakes Tim Duncan right out of his shorts

As if getting throttled by the Clippers at home wasn’t embarrassing enough, Spurs big msn Tim Duncan got faked out pretty badly by Blake Griffin leading to a Griffin dunk right over “The Big Fundamental.” Hey Griffin, ever heard of respecting your elders?

Mavs’ Jefferson hits teammate Rondo with errant knee to the head

Quick! Call the police. There’s been teammate on teammate crime in Dallas. During their recent game versus the Magic, Maverick forward Richard Jefferson was trying to get on the fast break when his fellow Mav, Rajon Rondo, was on the floor and took an RJ knee to the dome! Ouch!

Heat’s Whiteside shows no mercy to little kids

Miami’s Hassan Whiteside has been showing he truly belongs in the NBA. He has been doing it on the offensive end as well as on the defensive end with his prowess for blocking shots. Indeed, Hassan is telling the NBA, there’s no easy buckets when he is in the paint. He is also telling little kids […]

Watch Pop take a basketball to the head courtesy of Boris Diaw

Spurs big man Boris Diaw heaved a shot before halftime of the team’s recent game versus the Clippers. However, instead of hitting the rim or the backboard, the ball nailed coach Gregg Popovich in the head. With it being Superbowl today, it seems Diaw might be able to give Russell Wilson and Tom Brady a […]

Wiggins vs. LeBron… the showdown

Timberwolves rookie Andrew Wiggins found himself being defended by perhaps the best basketball player in the world – LeBron James. Did Wiggins fold and succumb to the aura of James and wilt? Naw! Wiggins took it to James and ended up making LeBron look like his feet were in cement. Take it to him young one! […]

Jacque Vaughn and the Orlando Magic are at a crossroads

We should be better than this. This assertion is one of the last things an NBA head coach probably wants to hear from the front office and ownership. Sometimes this assertion is fair, perhaps in the case of the Orlando Magic, but other times it’s an unreasonable one, such as the Sacramento Kings’ current head coaching […]

Damian Lillard, Mike Conley and another year of All-Star snub talk

From the confines of my office Thursday night, I received two notifications from the NBA Game Time app (have you pledged appllegiance?) that 14 players had been selected as reserves in the 2015 NBA All-Star game. We’re supposed to scream and shout about which players were snubbed every year, for tradition’s sake, but I mostly agree […]
