Dwight Howard made his Lakers debut last night, albeit in preseason action. Dwight finished with a double-double and looked right at home. He picked up right where he left off. His first bucket as a Laker? An alley-oop of course: [...]

Not that most fans are counting exhibition game wins in the preseason, but it could be noted that the Lakers are still winless. Dwight Howard’s return could give the likes of Pau and Kobe a bit of an energy boost, having a chance to finally play with the big man. Howard has been ruled out [...]
Just because the Celtics lost Ray Allen to free agency, don’t throw them a pity party just yet. They’ve reloaded their complementary pieces and should give Miami all they can handle when the two inevitably meet in the Conference Finals. And consequently, they’ve gotten younger too. The Celtics decided on Tuesday to let Dionte Christmas [...]

Andrew Bynum had an interesting season last year. He should a great deal of improvement, while also showing a great deal of immaturity. The latter probably played some role in the Lakers’ decision to move him (Dwight Howard helped, too). But is this what the Sixers can look forward too? Bynum’s already making headlines because [...]
There was time when NBA arenas didn’t have a corporate sponsor and they were just named after the city or team for the most part. But of course, there’s too much money to be left on the table by not giving naming rights to a company willing to shell out millions. No matter what their [...]
Dallas Mavericks Coach Rick Carlisle this morning announced that the team has decided to suspend guard Delonte West for ‘conduct detrimental to the team’. Details are limited as to the incident, but apparently West had some sort of locker room incident after a Dallas win. Some are speculating the outburst was due to lack of [...]
There have many been many strange sports injuries over the year, but Kevin Love’s may be the best. Love is playing the best basketball of his life and is probably the best PF in the league, so good thing this didn’t happen during the regular season. Kevin Love’s going to need a bigger bed. The [...]
