Marc Gasol was not a happy camper on Wednesday, with the Memphis Grizzlies entering their tilt against the Phoenix Suns having lost 10 straight. He’s not about to feel any better now, knowing they lost again, to make it 11 straight letdowns. Here’s what Big Spain had to say, per the Commercial Appeal (via Bleacher Report’s Tyler [...]

Twenty-seven percent of NBA players polled by ESPN agree: The Boston Celtics make the league’s best free-agency pitches. The worldwide leader polled “48 NBA pros” on various hot topics, including LeBron James’ free agency, DeMarcus Cousins’ future with the New Orleans Pelicans and LaVar Ball’s impact on the Los Angeles Lakers’ appeal. ESPN also asked [...]

Kevin Durant doesn’t have time for the people who are all hot and bothered over every little thing the Golden State Warriors do. Especially when it comes to how much freedom head coach Steve Kerr grants his players. Durant’s latest disdain for public perception stems from the reaction to Kerr allowing Draymond Green, Andre Iguodala [...]

The Utah Jazz are playing the best basketball of anyone in the NBA right now. After coming back from a 13 point deficit, they were able to take down the San Antonio Spurs at home without Ricky Rubio. A Donovan Mitchell jumper with 32 seconds left would end up sealing the deal… The Jazz are [...]

The NBA’s trade deadline came and went on Thursday without the Houston Rockets making a move. It felt weird. Wrong, even. They’re the Rockets. General manager Daryl Morey is the captain of futzing and fiddling. Surely he could have done something, anything, however insignificant. Right? Maybe.

Marcus Smart is one of those guys who’s value isn’t as apparent if you aren’t watching him play on most nights. His extreme hustle and effort to get loose balls, extend plays, make the extra pass and defend some of the NBA’s best perimeter players make him a valuable asset and a big part of [...]

LeBron James is no doubt annoyed the Cleveland Cavaliers have the NBA’s second-worst defense. He’s definitely frustrated they’ve lost 10 of their past 12 games. He can’t feel good about how close they are to dropping out of third place in the Eastern Conference. But, more than he’s ticked off at any of the aforementioned [...]

Rajon Rondo has held the reputation of being one of the more ornery and opinionated (at times) players in the NBA. His like or dislike for certain teammates and coaches over the years has been made very public: Kendrick Perkins, Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett = like, Rick Carlisle, Ray Allen = dislike. Rondo is very [...]

Isaiah Thomas wants to get paid this summer when he enters free agency. He’s been thinking about this next contract for a while—almost, it seems, since he signed his last one, a four-year, $27 million deal with the Phoenix Suns in 2014. Unfortunately for him, though, it doesn’t look like he’ll be needing a Brinks [...]
