Yogurt-coated moths! Tree monkey-shaped lightbulbs! Onion-scented udder cream! See, I can say totally outrageous things too. Just like Kobe Bryant. Relax, I jest. Kobe told Yahoo! Sports’ Adrian Wojnarowski that the concept of his impatience is a myth, and I agree with him. Kind of. First, here’s what he told Woj: “The idea of me [...]

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kevin Durant could possibly make his much-awaited season debut tonight as his team visits the New Orleans Pelicans, according to Darnell Mayberry of the Oklahoman. Durant was forced to miss the start of the season due to a right foot fracture and had to undergo surgery to repair the injury. And [...]

Lance Stephenson may have overstayed his welcome in Charlotte. Yes, it is only his first season with the Hornets. And yes, said season isn’t even 25 percent done. But the Hornets look like the Bobcats, and it’s forced them to scour the trade market for reinforcements, according to Grantland’s Zach Lowe: The Hornets have been [...]

After reading about his idea -which includes moving his team into the Eastern Conference-, I came to the realization that Mr. Cuban is somewhat crazy. Lately Cuban has been a staunch critic of the NBA. When former Los [...]

Never say Nets coach Lionel Hollins isn’t honest. Brutally honest. Tears-inciting honest. Hollins has been a source of brazen transparency since joining the Nets, and Brook Lopez has often been the center of his candid wrath. That, apparently, isn’t going to change. From the New York Post‘s Brian Lewis: Lionel Hollins has offered pointed critiques [...]

Oh, what could have been. Ahead of the Knicks’ loss to the Rockets on Monday night, Carmelo Anthony—who left the game with back spasms—admitted that Dwight Howard, who didn’t even play, tried really hard to get him to sign in Houston.
