Danilo Gallinari can score. Sometimes it’s pretty, sometimes it’s not. His game-icing bucket against the Milwaukee Bucks though was pretty—pretty damn wild. With the Denver Nuggets ahead by four and less than a minute remaining in the fourth quarter, Ty Lawson poked away an entry pass made by Brandon Jennings. Gallinari came up with the [...]

Move over Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett is about to take center stage at the NBA trade rumor mill extravaganza. Speculation has swirled over whether or not the Boston Celtics would ultimately deal Garnett, and thus blow up their financially cumbersome roster. As one of only four players with a no-trade clause in the Association, though, [...]

In the first quarter of Miami’s win against Charlotte last night, LeBron James utilized a classic post move. He took to the left block, established undeniable position, and scored on his man with a high left hand hook off glass. It was efficient, nostalgia-inducing (clearly taking away from his work with Olajuwan). It was also [...]

The Los Angeles Lakers are going to cap off a tumultuous season by doing nothing at the NBA’s trade deadline. Much has been made of what the team would try to do leading into February 21st. Would the Lakers attempt to trade Pau Gasol? Dwight Howard? Everyone (kidding)? Sitting 3.5 games outside the Western Conference [...]

Kevin Garnett may have just changed everything for the Boston Celtics. And when I say “everything,” I mean everything. Rajon Rondo’s torn ACL forces Boston to look at their assembly through a whole different lens. Suddenly, they’re not a veteran team led by a youthfully exuberant point guard. Instead, they’re just old. As such, no [...]

Danny Granger can be the answer for an Indiana Pacers team without a whole lot of questions. I’ve penned a number of thoughts on the star forward since he was shut down before the start of the season with a knee injury. Most have been responses to trade rumors that I simply don’t agree with. [...]

30-15. The Knicks may not be in the immediate conscience of the NBA media anymore (they were essentially getting Lakers coverage for all of two months), but they still stand at a record of 30-15. And they’re still doing it with some unorthodox basketball. If someone-hell, an alien-were to watch basketball for the very first [...]

The Boston Celtics are undefeated since losing Rajon Rondo, which does anything but speak volumes about the point guard’s value to the team. Without Rondo, the Celtics are 4-0 and have snagged victories over the Miami Heat and Los Angeles Clippers, two authentic contenders. Naturally, after such immense, albeit brief, success, the narrative in Boston [...]

Ricky Rubio wants Pau Gasol, and he doesn’t care if the entire world knows it. Per Eric Pincus of the Los Angeles Times, Rubio not-so-subtly continues to hold out hope that the Los Angeles Lakers big man will wind up with the Minnesota Timberwolves: Pau Gasol has been loosely linked to the Wolves, primarily because [...]

After learning that Celtic rookie Jared Sullinger wasn’t selected to participate in the NBA’s Rising Stars competition, Kevin Garnett was none to pleased. “Really? I’m actually shocked.”, Garnett responded upon first hearing the news. Frankly, he should be shocked. “Sully”, as 2012’s 21st overall pick is fondly called, is having a solid first year for [...]
