Ty Lawson’s previous DUIs seem like a lifetime ago, but he still hasn’t been punished by the league. Even though he’s in Houston now, the NBA has come down and suspended the PG for two games for his past transgressions. Houston Rockets’ guard Ty Lawson has been suspended for two games without pay for driving [...]

The Dwight Howard experiment in Houston may be nearing its end. A few years ago, his arrival to the Rockets was a huge social media phenomenon, as he chose to take less money to get out of L.A. Only a few years in, he’s reportedly not happy with playing in Harden’s shadow. Frankly, it is [...]

Quietly, Carlos Boozer is still a free agent, looking for work. Once a premier big man, Booz’s time with the Lakers last year hurt his stock some. It showed just how bad he is on defense and frankly, just how old he has gotten. But you always had the feeling that a team would come [...]

After Kelly Olynyk yanked Kevin Love’s arm out of the socket in the first round playoff series between the Cavs and Celtics a year ago, J.R. Smith decided to defend his teammate with some retaliation. Smith fouled Jae Crowder so hard that Smith was suspended and Crowder wrenched his knee. Now that everyone is healthy [...]

With every great scorer, there’s always somebody who is perceived as being the best at shutting him down. Or, at least coming close to it. Now that Kobe has decided to call it career at season’s end, he sat down with TNT’s Ernie Johnson to reflect on certain aspects of his career. Among the many [...]

The Bulls have been the sexy pick out East for quite some time now, but that appears to be vanishing with each passing year.
