The Golden State Warriors have too much offense for the rest of the NBA to handle and blasted yet another professional team off the court on Monday. There were a few things about this game that made it particularly memorable though, one was the circus-like, Harlem Globe Trotter-esque, eye-popping alley-oop from Curry to Durant on [...]

The Thunder have played 22 games so far this season and Russell Westbrook has posted a gaudy 31.0 points, 10.9 rebounds, while dishing out 11.3 assists. What he has done so far is unthinkable. We haven’t seen a player average a triple double for an entire season since Oscar Robertson. Nor have we seen anyone [...]

Don’t expect Chris Bosh to put on an NBA uniform this season. You probably were already expecting that. But it’s widely known that Bosh plans to fight the Miami Heat’s refusal to clear him for duty. We just weren’t sure when or how he planned on doing that. Apparently, though, he will wait to make [...]

The Indiana Pacers may be ready to move one of their key pieces. For all you hope-drunk folks out there, it’s not Paul George. It’s Monta Ellis, per Basketball Insiders’ Steve Kyler: Not sure there is much the Pacers have to offer without ripping up the core, which I do not see them doing. I [...]

Well, the Brooklyn Nets took their shot. Again. And they missed. Again. The Nets signed restricted free agents Allen Crabbe and Tyler Johnson to offer sheets over the summer.

Sherrod Blakely of CSNNE.com said that the Celtics would consider trying to trade for Andrew Bogut as a way of beefing up their defense, the NBA-worst Dallas Mavericks apparently aren’t having it, per ESPN.com’s Tim MacMahon: Sources tell ESPN that Mavs have no immediate intention to shop Andrew Bogut, as [...]
