Carmelo Anthony and the New York Knicks need to be careful, not reckless. But it seems the latter is prevailing. We’ve been led to believe that Melo’s knee is a perplexing mystery, but real “mystery” is why he hasn’t got it drained. We know there’s fluid in there, he needs to just get it out [...]

Dwight Howard emerged from the Amway Center with both a victory over the Orlando Magic and some fresh new perspective on the Los Angeles Lakers in hand. Though the prevailing theme in the Lakers’ latest travels was Howard’s return to Orlando, something much greater can be taken away from this: Dwight and Kobe Bryant are [...]

As MSG completes a $1 billion dollar renovation, it seems odd that only 1 NBA All-Star Game ever took place there (in 1998), while the New York Knicks have made 5 NBA Finals. Honorable Mention: Bernard King’s 60, Amar’e Stoudemire’s 41, Carmelo Anthony’s 41, Kyrie Irving’s 41, Jeremy Lin’s 38 [...]

What’s ailing Carmelo Anthony? That’s the eight-figure question currently plaguing the New York Knicks. We know it has something to do with his knees and fluid, but how serious is it?

Much has been made of Smith’s previous assertion that he is a max contract player and while the general consensus borders on split, J-Smoove is standing by his sentiments (via Gary Washburn of The Boston Globe): That was supposed to clear the pathway to happiness for Smith, who felt [...]

Prior to the Los Angeles Lakers’ victory over the Chicago Bulls, Kobe Bryant dropped a steaming pile of truth. In his never-ending quest to be completely honest, Bryant admitted that he and Dwight Howard are not “best friends” (via Dave McMenamin of ESPNLosAngeles.com): Kobe Bryant to Michael Wilbon on his relationship with Dwight: “It’s not [...]

When it comes to Kyrie Irving, the Cleveland Cavaliers can’t be too careful. All of 20 years old, Irving appears fated to be a top five player in the NBA at some point. Already, he’s one of just four players in the league averaging at least 20 points and fives assists per game while shooting [...]

Whoever said chivalry amongst billionaires was dead has clearly never crossed paths with Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban. Apparently, the Chicago Bulls’ jet was forced to touch down because of engine problems over the weekend, and Cuban loaned the team Dallas’ so that they could get to their game against the San Antonio Spurs on [...]
