James Harden is not known for his defense. It has become a favorite Internet meme. But . . . So . . . that is not very good defense. Fortunately Team USA is dominating Serbia thanks to Harden’s offense and Kyrie Irving’s incredible performance from beyond the arc. No video yet of Harden flying out […]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iixq0Lc27Fw Team USA’s Kenneth Faried and Stephen Curry decided to have a little fun on the USA bench with a sit-down shoot out. But if you are thinking “Manimal” had a chance against Curry, one of the best shooters in the league, you will be sorely wrong.

Team USA got the win over Team Lithuania 96-68 but things were testy during the game. And at the center of it was DeMarcus Cousins. Yeah shocking right? During the game, Cousins and Jonas Valanciunas got tangled up when DeMarcus was soooooooo close to throwing a vicious punch at Jonas. It seems Cousins didn’t take to […]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpXbA5WKN3c NBA 2K15 ratings are a big deal. In fact, they might be bigger than the game itself. Where a player ranks on this video game rating system gets fans talking. Did so-and-so get the right rating? How come someone got a bigger rating than this player? It definitely creates debate and now the upcoming […]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SNBIVUeMrvU OK it must be getting a bit tiresome waiting for the new NBA season because Lakers’ Jeremy Lin is pranking people. Lin was honored by the folks at Madame Tussauds wax museum in San Francisco as a new wax figure was made in his likeness. Of course this gave Lin an opportunity to pretend he […]

How do you know it is officially the doldrums of the NBA offseason? This! Apparently the Mavs thought it be fun to put their newest player’s mug — Chandler Parsons — on the body of a Pokemon cartoon character. Enter the Cavs who did not want to be upstaged with their own version of Anderson Varejao‘s afro on […]

By now you heard of the departure of ESPN’s Tony Reali. He is off to bigger and better things but he got his start on ESPN as PTI’s “Stat Boy.” So who could ever fill Reali’s big shoes? How about 7-foot-7 former NBA center Gheorghe Muresan! Well done PTI!

Lakers’ Nick Young is making the most of the offseason and getting mixed in a pick-up game with a few youngsters is on his list. Nick was in NYC recently and decided to get in a pick-up game and even nailed a shot. Of course in Nick Young fashion, he boasted about it and made […]

Again that is Steve Smith CNN wanted to talk with but for host Fredricka Whitfield, she […]

Houston fans and coaching staff may want to not even press play on this video considering it’s their star player — James Harden — taking a risk on a Segway. Harden is in Spain with Team USA for the FIBA World Cup and was taped soaking in the sights while on a Segway. So what could […]

That James Harden photo started making the rounds as the Dallas Cowboys lost to the San Francisco 49ers 28-17 after the Cowboys last year had the worst statistical season defensively in NFL history. Or something like that. I am usually napping during NFL games Sunday afternoon (when does basketball start?!). But this James Harden photo […]

Heading into the Turkey vs. Australia matchup at the FIBA World Cup, many thought Australia would end up advancing to the next round. But Turkey had other things in mind namely crushing Team Australia’s dream at a shot a medaling. With 22 seconds left in the game, Australia up 64-62, Turkey had one shot left […]

If you have not been watching the 2014 FIBA tourney out in Spain, then you are missing a whole lot of sweet plays! From Serge Ibaka being the “Serge Protector” at the rim for Spain, Spurs’ Boris Diaw with a huge rejection, Goran Dragic with a nifty drive at the rim to some Spurs-like team passing […]

The San Antonio Spurs added yet another NBA crown to their trophy case as they walked away from the 2013-14 season as NBA champs. It was their fifth title in franchise history and won it with teamwork, unselfish play, solid coaching, a team-first mentality and that oh so beautiful ball movement. But before they hit […]
