On the heels of another delusional tirade by banned Clippers owner Donald Sterling, the Clippers lost 104-98 to the Oklahoma City Thunder. How? How does the team with the best floor leader (Chris Paul), the best coach (Doc Rivers), and best frontcourt (Griffin/Jordan) lose a playoff series? In the critical game 5, the Clippers blew [...]

Times are a changing. One day, you’re Kobe Bryant, ruler of the Los Angeles Lakers. Your will be done. Don’t like Shaquille O’Neal? He’s gone. Championships? Got ’em. Comparisons to Michael Jordan? Check. Then, quite suddenly, you’re old, going on 36 and fresh off a season that saw you appear in just six games. You [...]

If you’re a basketball fan, you can’t help but love what the Spurs have done over the past 17 years. In the Tim Duncan era they have never been in the lottery(Kawhi Leonard is the lowest draft pick they’ve made since 1997, and that pick was traded from Indiana), have always won 50+ games (or [...]

Phil Jackson called his shot. Then he swung. Then he missed. After a months-long courtship that began long before Mike Woodson was officially fired, the New York Knicks missed out on Steve Kerr, who agreed to a five-year, $25 million deal with the Golden State Warriors Wednesday night, according to NBA.com’s David Aldridge and Yahoo!

Excuse me for being so blunt and direct and not buttering you up with some clever catchphrase that’s almost lost in a brilliant metaphor. I’m so sorry. But this is just too weird. “Hopefully I get to play with him [...]

I didn’t know apologizing involves bashing other people? On Monday night, Los Angeles Clippers owner (for now) Mr. Donald Sterling sat down with Anderson Cooper of CNN to talk about the racially driven tape scandal that took the NBA and world by storm. It seemed like through the entire interview, NBA hall of famer Magic [...]

The Los Angeles Lakers are in no rush to replace Mike D’Antoni. While plenty of other NBA teams are in a mad dash, searching feverishly for their next head coach, the Lakers are going to take it easy and really dig into to this entire process. That’s the plan, anyway. General manager Mitch Kupchak sat [...]

Amar’e Stoudemire may, at some point over his last three decades of life, have stayed at a Holiday Inn one night. But that doesn’t mean he parades around claiming to know things he doesn’t. Because he doesn’t. Speaking on ESPN Radio’s The Herd with Cowerd, the New York Knicks forward was asked if he thought [...]

Everyone has one of those days, when at the end of it, all you want is a nice, tall, cold water. Er, I mean beer. Or bourbon. Or vodka. Any alcohol really. And why the hell not?
