The saga that is the future of Los Angeles Lakers forward Pau Gasol continues. Rumors have begun swirl, most of which state that the Lakers are interested in dealing the struggling Gasol. But regardless of whether or not said reports hold any validity, trading the Spaniard may not be an option for Los Angeles. According [...]

James Harden is off and running with the Houston Rockets, but there is a new elephant in the Oklahoma City Thunder’s locker room in the form of Kevin Martin. The high-scoring shooting guard came to the Thunder in what was, to say the least, a painstakingly difficult Harden trade. Oklahoma City was hard-pressed to relinquish [...]

The Wilson Chandler experiment is not going well for the Denver Nuggets. Not well at all. But is it time for the team to give up hope of the wing man ever making a substantial contribution? It’s a more than fair question. Since being traded to the Nuggets in 2011 as part of the Carmelo [...]

We can call for Pau Gasol’s head until we’re blue, purple or green in the face, but he was nowhere to be found when the Los Angeles Lakers were taken down by the Houston Rockets. Gasol sat out in Houston as he continues his seemingly lost battle with tendinitis in both of his knees. But [...]

It’s not easy being Tyson Chandler of the New York Knicks. Seemingly single-handed, Chandler turned the Knicks into a top-11 defense last season, and he and coach Mike Woodson have picked right back up where he left off. His direction on the defensive side of the ball remains nothing short of inspiring and innovative. He [...]

The Los Angeles Clippers are absolutely infuriating. Yes, infuriating. I personally spent a large chunk of the NBA offseason criticizing their roster and many of the moves they made; I simply didn’t believe they were a contender, or even a viable powerhouse for that matter. But then the season began. Los Angeles was 8-2, Chris [...]

Last night, the Orlando Magic further lifted the fog on just how brittle the Los Angeles Lakers have been looking. Yes, the short end of this story is that the Magic won a game through the efforts of an all too convincing final period. Kobe Bryant had another monster game (34 points, 7 rebounds, 5 [...]
