The Golden State Warriors would follow Mark Jackson anywhere. Into to an erupting volcano? Yes. Into the local mall on Black Friday? Yup. Into a movie theater showing only Nicolas Cage movies filmed in the last seven years? Yes again. Would the Warriors front office do the same? Check back after the playoffs. After reassigning [...]

This is tank-tastic. With Evan Turner, Jrue Holiday and Andre Iguodala all gone, Thaddeus Young is the Philadelphia 76ers’ leader. Heck, he’s their best player with Michael Carter-Williams still developing. But that doesn’t mean he hasn’t given thought to life outside Philly. How could he not? The Sixers have lost 25 straight games, and there’s [...]

Stop. Please stop. I’m begging you. Derrick Rose isn’t going to play again this season. We know this. Yet people still feel the need to ask because, well, he’s Derrick Rose. And when the Chicago Bulls took on the Indiana Pacers Monday night, someone asked, per The Associated Press (via ESPN): Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau [...]

Nothing beats that awkward moment when you realize the New York Knicks are still in the playoff race. I’m kidding.

After assuming inconsistent roles with the Memphis Grizzlies and Houston Rockets through the first six seasons of his career, Lowry has found a home with the Toronto Raptors. He’s averaging 17.3 points and 7.8 assists per game this season, making [...]

On most nights, Carmelo Anthony doesn’t sound like a man who’s going to leave the New York Knicks. After watching the franchise nab Phil Jackson, it seems even less likely. He’s waxed nothing but support and optimism for the Zen Master. The Knicks’ season-long seven-game winning streak even has him smiling in spurts again. But [...]

Meet Mark Cuban, owner of the Dallas Mavericks and resident broken record. While Cuban is prone to repeating himself, it’s not all his doing. He’s asked the same questions over and over and over and over again, Groundhog Day-style. It’s never, “How do you feel about bowl haircuts?” or “Are you supplied with unlimited cheese [...]
