With all eyes glued to “Emojigate” on Wednesday afternoon, the Orlando Magic announced that they’d be resting their three most important Summer League players for the final two games of the tournament. Arguably the MVP of the Orlando Summer League – don’t forget, we have summer action taking place in Utah and Las Vegas this […]

Sometimes in life, a contentious issue leaves no room for two competing viewpoints to share the victory platform.

The saga of DeAndre Jordan and […]

This has been a solid-but-unspectacular moratorium period for the Boston Celtics. They managed to resign their valuable ‘young veterans’, Jae Crowder and Jonas Jerebko, to fair market contracts. They also brought in Amir Johnson on what some may view as a slight overpay, but considering the fact that he is going to bring Boston precisely […]

Before the New Orleans Pelicans get started in the Las Vegas Summer League starting on July 10, they had to take care of some very important business first, like signing franchise cornerstone Anthony Davis to the richest contract in NBA history — a five-year extension worth an estimated $145 million. Davis will be 28-years-young when […]

It is a weird time in the calendar year to be a sports fan. Many are still coming down from the highs that were the NBA Finals, the United States Women’s Soccer Team winning the World Cup, and some other — eh — notable (Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest, I am looking at you!) sporting […]

It’s not new for athletes (or coaches) to reconsider where they’ll play, but it’s not exactly commonplace for an athlete to very purposefully and intentionally take a long time to make a decision; announce said decision; and then encounter serious doubts a few days later. This is what we have in the engrossing — but […]

Find us on Twitter @CrossoverNBA The NBA does a good job with free agency. In fact, the NBA has done a good job with off-season stuff being captivating enough to be the only other league aside from the NFL that gets any really notable run for any of its events nationally when not in-season. In […]

Follow us on Twitter @CrossoverNBA We all knew a few of them growing up. Odds are, you know a few of them now too. They’re the folks that crave some sort of drama, controversy, and say things like, “I try to avoid it, but it finds me.” It’s a mildly rough way to live, it’d […]

The Golden State Warriors and Oklahoma City Thunder share a number of similarities. Some of them exist independent of other machinations and movements in the larger theater of the NBA. Some similarities are more particular to this offseason and the aftermath of NBA free agency. Several of these connections are explored here. In this piece, […]

In the wake of the free-agent frenzy we witnessed over this Fourth of July weekend — the Houston Rockets’ red glare at the San Antonio Spurs, the Woj bombs bursting in air — it’s worth noting both the similarities and differences between two of the top contenders in the 2015-2016 Western Conference.

One of the bigger surprises of the 2015 NBA Draft was the fall of Justise Winslow, and the Miami Heat couldn’t have been happier about it. Rumored to go as high as No. 5 overall, Mario Hezonja, Willie Cauley-Stein, Emmanuel Mudiay, Stanley Johnson and Frank Kaminsky were all called before Winslow after the Knicks selected […]
