When Kobe hurt his knee several weeks ago, the timetable put his return at roughly the all-star break. He had his knee examined today and it turns out that he’s still about 2-4 weeks away. Many believe that Kobe should just sit out the remaineder of the season and come back next year, since the [...]

Kevin Durant is playing on another level right now. Another planet, even. Since Russell Westbrook has been out, his shots have increased and so have his points as a results. He is averaging 31.3 PPG and that’s thanks in large part to a huge January. His latest victim was Atlanta. Last night, KD stole the [...]

Nate Robinson is from Seattle and naturally, he still has strong ties there. He’s now a Denver Nugget and ever though the Denver Broncos are in the Super Bowl, he’s still pulling for his hometown Seattle Seahawks this Sunday. This should be pretty obvious, but some fans don’t seem to care and it wouldn’t be [...]

When the 28-man roster of invitees for Team USA was announced last week, one of the first omissions that jumped to mind was John Wall. While his career didn’t get off the start off as quickly as many would’ve liked, he has come on strong over the past couple of years. The Wizards are right [...]

Dwight Howard hasn’t played for Team USA in six years. Most recently, he sat out the 2012 Olympics because of back surgery, but was present in 2008. He intends on playing in the 2014 World Cup of Basketball later this year. This doesn’t necessarily mean he’ll want to take part in the 2016 Olympics (when [...]

Last year, Denver’s Danilo Gallinari tore his ACL shortly before the playoffs began. It was tragic in that he was critical in making their offense flow and who knows how far Denver would’ve gotten with him. In fact, Gallo only had surgery for a torn meniscus, but did not have ACL surgery. It was purposely [...]

Location, location, location. That applies to real estate, the value of sports franchises and just about everything, really. Regarding sports franchises, the team doesn’t even need be that good for the value to be great, as location will supercede most. Look no further than the New York Knicks. Last season marked the first time the [...]
