Otto Porter is ready to break out in 2015-16. He was taken 3rd in a disappointing 2013 draft, headlined by the biggest bust in recent history, Anthony Bennett. Coming off a season where he averaged 6 points a game, and 3 boards, a lot of you will be looking at this going “WHAT??” But let’s [...]

Carmelo Anthony is a forgiving man…in a manner of speaking. The New York Knicks’ only superstar apparently wasn’t the biggest fan of Sasha Vujacic back in the day. But now that the two are teammates, he’s all about giving Sasha some love. Per the New York Daily News‘s Frank Isola: Carmelo Anthony has a history [...]

The Boston Celtics are, on paper, one of the NBA’s most intriguing teams heading into 2015-16. This is both a good and bad thing.

The NBA’s preseason has not been kind to the New Orleans Pelicans’ big men. First Alexis Ajinca went down with a right hamstring strain, which, per a team announcement, is expected to sideline him for the next four to six weeks. Now, to make matters worse, starting center/$60 million man Omer Asik is projected to [...]

Markieff Morris is having a weird few months. The Phoenix Suns traded his brother, Marcus Morris, to the Detroit Pistons in what was clearly a salary dump as the team attempted to become part of the LaMarcus Aldridge sweepstakes after signing Tyson Chandler. Marcus has since called the Suns out, leaving no doubt that he [...]

Yeah, so, the Jimmy Butler-Derrick Rose feud that isn’t needs to die.
