There’s no doubt Lakers’ Nick Young is beyond confident on the court however after hitting the three pointer which netted LA a recent win over the defending champ – Spurs – “Swaggy P” wanted to show everyone just how great he is. Enter Michael Jackson! Nick posted on his Instagram a photoshopped picture of his […]

He can knock down threes with ease and now it seems Spurs’ Marco Belinelli can also make great rap video cameos.
I do not speak Italian but from what I can gather from the video, Marco seems to be the center of attention of this song.
From his standing in the background bobbing his head, on the court taking shots at the rim to Belinelli lip syncing, this video has it all (h/t Project Spurs).

Things are bad in L.A. And I mean reallllyyyy bad!
Aside from sitting at the bottom of the Pacific Division at 6-16, Kobe Bryant absolutely went on on teammates and Lakers GM Mitch Kupchak including Kobe calling out Mitch for assembling a horrible roster in a recent practice session.
Check out Kobe ripping into his team and hear when he call out Kupchak right in front of the entire team! Poor Mitch. He just stood there and absolutely was berated by Bryant.
WARNING – NSFW LANGUAGE!
I get it. Frustration may have set in for the ultra competitive Bryant but come on Mamba! How is this tirade going to help the situation?

It’s no secret that the Detroit Pistons have been a trainwreck for the past seasons as a casualty of a strangely constructed roster loaded with talent but lacking in any sort of basketball chemistry. That losing culture was supposed to change, at least somewhat, this season due to the team’s offseason hiring of veteran coach […]

What better way to embarrass children than to have their dad dance so awkward and have video of it being shown to over 15,000 people in an NBA arena.
Well that’s exactly what the Spurs did as they recently trotted out the “Awkward Dad Dance Cam,” and from the look of the video below, it is over-the-top awkward.
Imagine if this was YOUR dad shaking his booty in front of the masses. Ughhhh! Sit down dad! (more…)

The New York Knicks stink. At 4-19, only the Pistons and Sixers have a worse record than them in the entire NBA. The Phil Jackson era doesn’t look much different from the pre-Jackson era. And of course, everyone on the team hates each other and coach Derek Fisher. This ESPN New York piece by Chris […]

Whoops! Recently, Prince William and his wife, Kate Middleton, took in Cavs game and afterwards, got to meet the “King” himself, LeBron James. However, during a photo-op, James put his arm around Kate which apparently is something one doesn’t do overseas. In fact, it’s a huge breach of etiquette. Via Daily Mail: “Although I am […]

At 7-5, one would think… no expect a basketball player to patrol the paint and block and shot attempt at or near the rim. Well that’s exactly what 7-5 Sim Bhullar did in his debut game for the D-League’s Reno Bighorns blocking a whopping 6 shots against the LA Defenders. Check out the video of […]

If there’s any team in the NBA with more bad luck it has to be the Pacers. As if losing their cornerstone player, Paul George, to a devastating season-ending leg injury, now comes word big man Ian Mahinmi will be sidelined for up to 8 weeks with a foot injury. Indiana announced in a press release […]

The Miami Heat were fortunate to end their short losing streak after dropping four consecutive games to the Washington Wizards, Atlanta Hawks and Milwaukee Bucks and lastly the Memphis Grizzlies before finally picking up a win against the Phoenix Suns. The Heat currently sit 3rd in the Southeast Division, with a record of 10-11. The […]

I have seen some odd ball celebrations from NBA bench players before but this one ranks up there in my book.
In a recent game between the Spurs and Wolves, Marco Belinelli was on fire, doing what he does best and that’s knocking down three-pointers with ease.
So his teammates on the bench started to rub their bellies after Belinelli drained threes. Get it? Belly… Belinelli! See what they did there?

Golden State Warriors fans were never afraid to criticize their old coach, Mark Jackson. The frustrations that he had simultaneously taken the team forward while also holding it back never ceased throughout his tumultuous final year. Warriors owner Joe Lacob went out of his way to criticize the former coach yet again this weekend. Right […]

DeMar DeRozan is the Raptors’ All Star. OK, maybe Kyle Lowry was more deserving last year and DeRozan is a bit too inconsistent to be an All Star, his place on last year’s team more of a team honor for how well the Raptors were playing than anything else. And DeRozan is good. In this […]

The Cavaliers are all in on the All-Star Game now that LeBron is back, and the Cavs are relevant again. They have officially put their name in the bidding hat for 2018 while the Portland Trailblazers and Charlotte Hornets have done the same.

It took about a month into the season. It took some trials and tribulations. Some hard lessons learned from the young players and some teammates to get used to. The storyline followed the similar path that the Heat did when LeBron James joined the Heat. He had the experience to know to let things work […]
