The Golden State Warriors have clinched a playoff berth, but their seeding is still yet to be determined. If they’re healthy, they can be an interesting matchup. The key word is “if”. Last night, Andrew Bogut went down with an ankle injury and did not return. This is the same ankle that caused him to [...]

Kobe Bryant seems to be very uncertain as to when he plan on retiring. He’s only 34 years old, but he has 17 years worth of NBA miles on his body. His game hasn’t fallen off all that much but I wonder how much desire he has left or how much he wants to accomplish. [...]

For the first time in a very long time, the Dallas Mavericks will not be a part of the playoffs. For about a decade, they’ve been a fixture atop the Western Conference. But age and injury has kept them away this year. But if you ask Mark Cuban, he doesn’t anticipate this being a trend. [...]

If you thought the Miami Heat were the only team “resting” players in preparation for the playoffs, guess again. Whereas something like this was unheard of in the 90s, it has become commonplace for certain teams. The Boston Celtics are no stranger to this phenomenon either.

The wife of Minnesota Timberwolves head coach Rick Adelman has been hospitalized for some time now, and that has understandably taken a toll on Rick. It has made it difficult for him to focus on basketball. Previously, there was speculation that Rick may step down so that he could devote all of his attention on [...]

Time flies, especially in sports. If we told you that the last time the Knicks won their division was the 1993-94 season, would you believe us. You should, because prior to last night, that was the case. Nineteen seasons. That’s amazing. After defeating the Wizards last night, the Knicks not only won 13 straight (their [...]

The Bulls’ Joakim Noah has been sidelined for a while now with a foot injury. That means, they’ve been without their best perimeter player (Rose) and best frontcourt player when it matters most. Noah was supposed to be nearing a return, but has suffered a setback. With the playoffs less than a month away, and [...]

A few years ago, even though LeBron James was pretty much universally hated for leaving Cleveland for Miami, he still had the NBA’s best-selling jersey. In fact, he had that distinction for his first two years in Miami. He has finally been unseated, by Carmelo Anthony. I must say, this is quite surprising. Of all [...]
