Well, duh. Kevin Durant was asked about life on the Oklahoma City Thunder without Russell Westbrook prior to the team’s Game 4 overtime loss to the Memphis Grizzlies, and he responded by saying the only thing he really could: He missed him. Asked Kevin Durant what he’s learned about himself in the absence of Russell [...]

Where did all the three-point shooting go? That’s what every member of the New York Knicks, their fans and Mike Woodson should be asking themselves following the team’s loss to the Indiana Pacers. New York fell in Indiana 82-71 (it could have been worse), attempted just 11 three-pointerss and connected on just three of them. [...]

On Thursday he began to put his stamp on the franchise when he shuffled the front office and fired five scouts. “He fired five scouts — international scouting director/player personnel Pete Philo, regional [...]

While most of us would kill just to play in the NBA just for one game, former NBA stars and current TNT analysts Shaquille O’Neal, Charles Barkley, and Kenny Smith have taken things to another level living the dream on Inside the NBa. Not only did they log thousands of minutes on the NBA hardwood [...]

Maybe Chris Paul isn’t such a flight risk after all. Following the Los Angeles Clippers’ first-round exit at the hands of the Memphis Grizzlies, I was of the mind that Paul would consider spurning Hollywood for a different locale. And I still am.
