Every Player to be Added to All-Star Ballot

It hasn’t even been a year since Adam Silver took over for David Stern as NBA commissioner, but it feels as if he’s made more changes in this time than Stern has over the past several years. It gives you the sense that Silver stood idly by compiling a list of new things he would [...]

Kenyon Martin to Work Out for Grizzlies

Kenyon Martin to Work Out for Grizzlies

The last time we saw Kenyon Martin, although he was getting up there in age, he was still a very formidable presence around the basket. In fact, he was probably a better rim protector than Tyson Chandler when the two were in the New York. Martin is a free agent who hasn’t been on an [...]

Stephen Curry’s Streak of Consecutive Games with a Made 3-Pointer Ends at 76

Stephen Curry has one of the prettiest strokes in the game and it stands to reason that he’ll eventually set a bunch of shooting records before his career is over. Coming into last night’s loss to the Spurs, Curry had connected on a 3-pointer in 76 consecutive games. That was good enough for 5th all [...]

Derrick Rose is Thinking About His Long-Term Health

Derrick Rose is Thinking About His Long-Term Health

Derrick Rose is 26 years old, but he’s already thinking long-term. The recently oft-injured point guard doesn’t mind sitting out games because he knows his body will thank him for that in the long-term. Most guys his age don’t have that same frame of mind, but credit Rose for saying this out loud because you [...]

Mark Cuban Doesn’t Dislike Wade Anymore; Wade Still Doesn’t Lose Sleep

Mark Cuban’s Mavs have met up with Dwyane Wade’s Heat in the Finals twice since he’s been an owner and is 1-1. Because of the dominant performance in 2006 by Wade in the Finals (and perhaps other reasons as well), Cuban was not fond of Wade. But eight years removed from that first showdown in [...]

Dwyane Wade Comments on Cleveland’s Slow Start

Dwyane Wade Comments on Cleveland’s Slow Start

To some, the Cavs’ slow start is reminiscent of Miami’s slow start four years ago. A collection of talent is great, but they still need time to gel in order to everyone to be on the same page. Dwyane Wade knows all about that. He was asked about the Cavs and is confident LeBron will [...]

Kendrick Perkins, Serge Ibaka Froze Out Reggie Jackson in Recent Loss

The OKC Thunder will have to weather the storm for a few months until they get back either Russell Westbrook or Kevin Durant back from injury. Until then, offense will need to come from somewhere. Reggie Jackson thinks he’s the guy apparently. In a recent loss to the Nets Jackson’s trigger-happy play gut under the [...]
