The Lakers are just a few games out of the 8th playoff spot in the West. And sadly, Laker fans are excited about that. I mean, we’re talking about the Lakers here. Last night, they fell to the Heat at home as Kobe scored 25 on 8-25 from the field. Most analysts would agree that [...]

It’s never easy being the coach of a bad roster. You’re doomed if that’s every the case because if the team under performs, you’re the one they get rid of because they can’t fire the players. The Phoenix Suns’ Alvin Gentry learned that today. Alvin Gentry is no longer the head coach of the Phoenix [...]

Last night, the 2013 NBA All-Star sarters were announced on TNT. Yes, this is a popularity contest, but even so, there aren’t many surprises here. What’s actually surprising is that Jeremy Lin wasn’t voted a starter. Hey, it worked for Yao Ming. The Los Angeles Lakers’ Kobe Bryant (1,591,437) edged the Miami Heat’s LeBron James (1,583,646) [...]

Wallace still has a lot left in the tank and has the veteran savvy to help the Knicks both offensively and defensively. But he suffered what is likely a stress fracture in his foot [...]

The only thing more troubling than a player being suspended for conduct detrimental to the team is when the team doesn’t announce what that player did. That’s the case with Atlanta’s Josh Smith. The Hawks have been spiraling of late, so does this mean Josh has had enough of the ATL? Either way, Smith will [...]

Remember back in November when Gregg Popovich sat Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili for a Thursday night, nationally televised marquee match up vs. the Miami Heat. If so, you’ll also remember David Stern fining the team $250,000 for this. Maybe this is why Stern was so upset. A fan has decided to take legal [...]
