Stephen Curry’s pregame preparation is a spectacle unto himself. What, you didn’t think the reigning MVP was just lazily good, did you? Curry makes world domination look easy, but it’s actually really hard, and he puts in a lot of work so that he can destroy galaxies for 30-plus minutes every game. Here is some [...]

But, as Dwain Price of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram noted, the Rockets are still taking extra precautions: #Rockets C Dwight Howard won't play Fri. [...]

Remember when Dwyane Wade broke Kobe Bryant’s nose during the 2012 NBA All-Star Game? Sure you do. But Kobe doesn’t. Fine, yes he does. But he’s not holding any grudges nearly four years later.

Additional offensive help is not on the way for the Chicago Bulls. Already bogged down by subpar play at the point guard position (sup, Derrick Rose) and in the frontcourt (sup, Pau Gasol, Taj Gibson and Joakim Noah), the Bulls definitely need an offensive boost.

Randy Wittman must be an avid fan of Forgetting Sarah Marshall. The Washington Wizards are floundering as a team. At 7-9, they’re owners of the fourth-worst record in the Eastern Conference. Their offense isn’t nearly as potent as it was during the playoffs, and their defense, relative to this season’s field of points-prevention units, has [...]

Bryon Scott’s job is safe. For now. Not 20 games into his second season as head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers, it already looks like Scott will have played babysitter for the two worst teams in franchise history.

Dirk has quietly been putting together a renaissance season at the age of 37 and like a fine wine he shot seems to get better with age (unlike another certain NBA superstar of Dirk’s era who is nicknamed Vino…). Through 19 games of the 2015-16 NBA season, Dirk is shooting 50.4% from the field, 44.6% [...]

Back in 2007, two years removed from his divorce with Shaquille O’Neal, Kobe Bryant wasn’t happy with the Los Angeles Lakers and demanded a trade. That much is common knowledge. It’s been talked about and re-spun three times over for nearly a decade, and it’s bound to be rehashed now that the Black Mamba plans [...]
