Jeremy Lin has been going through somewhat of a mid-career crisis, as once a subdued Harvard graduate with a short and clean cut haircut in the his early NBA days and during the great Lin-sanity of 2012, Lin has cycled through a number of crazy hairstyles in the past year or so. Now it appears [...]

Ty Lawson sounds like a guy ready for a return to stardom. It’s difficult to believe that barely a year has passed since he played like one of the NBA’s top point guards, as a member of the Denver Nuggets, in 2014-15. Two DUI arrests between January and June 2015 have altered his image drastically, [...]

Upon choosing to leave the Oklahoma City Thunder for the Golden State Warriors, Kevin Durant did what any self-respecting NBA free agent who just broke the hearts of millions of basketball fans would do: lay low.

Anthony Davis does not seem broken up about the departures of Ryan Anderson and Eric Gordon, both of whom left the New Orleans Pelicans for the Houston Rockets as unrestricted free agents. Of course, Davis’ ostensible indifference to the situation may have something to do with the fact that he didn’t try getting either of [...]

If the Milwaukee Bucks begin the 2016-17 season with Greg Monroe still on the roster, it’ll be a surprise at this point. Monroe has been linked to various trade rumors since before his first season with the Bucks ended, and that chatter is only picking up steam as we move into the dog days of [...]

Tom Thibodeau has liked what he’s seen from the New York Knicks this summer. I’m sure that is a totally objective stance and has nothing to do with them acquiring two of the most renowned players from his time as the Chicago Bulls’ head coach. Here’s the New York Post‘s Marc Berman with the lowdown: [...]

The leg injury Paul George suffered with Team USA in 2014 that caused him to miss all but six games of the NBA’s 2014-15 season is officially behind him, just in case you were wondering. Paul George is once again back with Team USA, prepping for a gold medal march in Rio that will begin [...]

One of the chief complaints by NBA players, and non-NBA fans, is that the playoffs go on and on and on. This past year the first playoff game of the season tipped off on April 16, with the Cavaliers besting the Warriors in Game 7 of the Finals a full 65 days later. During that [...]
