He was expected to have a huge season under new head coach Frank Vogel this year. Unfortunately, that hasn’t been what has transpired thus far. According to […]

Fun. That’s the most important part of all of this. Frank Vogel was introduced as the Orlando Magic’s 12th coach in franchise history Monday, and that’s what he talked about. “We’re going to win and we’re going to have fun winning,” he told the assembled media. “We’re going to win and we’re going to have […]

The arrival of Jeff Hornacek as the new head coach of the New York Knicks certainly qualifies as a surprise relative to expectations… and hopes. Any Knicks fan who had become resigned to the idea that Kurt Rambis would be the permanent head coach in New York is happy in the wake of this development. […]

Frank Vogel and David Blatt already had a lot to think about in the first place. The Memphis Grizzlies, Houston Rockets, and Indiana Pacers all need a head coach. The New York Knicks’ coaching situation has not been fully or formally resolved, but Phil Jackson is carrying himself in a way which suggests that he’ll […]

The Orlando Magic will carry a measure of regret into the NBA offseason. That said, the frustration attached to early tee times — at least there are plenty of great golfing options in Orlando — will burn off when the Magic consider how many resources lie at their disposal.

It wasn’t the day the music died — Tuesday was the day the Magic died. Many California dreams have been born in Los Angeles, but for an Eastern Conference team on a late-season West Coast swing, visions of an NBA playoff berth came to rest against the Lakers. It’s time to think about the future […]

One of the best set plays in basketball is the “elevator doors play,” but this piece won’t be about that double-high screening action.

Forget about games decided by five points or fewer — let’s offer an even more specific examination of NBA teams and their results in the first half of the season.
