Yesterday was an Independence Day that will live in infamy for those living in the state of Oklahoma and not for good reason (unless you live in Seattle or Northern California). Much to the chagrin, horror and heartache of Thunder fans across the country, Kevin Durant chose to celebrate his July 4th by declaring his [...]

News came down Wednesday evening that the New York Knicks and President of Basketball Operations Phil Jackson made the decision to hire Jeff Hornacek as their head coach. [tweet https://twitter.com/HowardBeck/status/733079407607353345] The news comes as a bit of a surprise for Knicks fans and many who were covering the situation as many assumed Phil Jackson would [...]

On Thursday night, as the buzzer sounded on the Suns’ 118-104 victory over the Clippers, Austin Rivers had a few choice words for Mirza Teletovic. I think. See, inside 15 seconds to play, with the shot clock turned off and the Suns already leading 115-104, Teletovic drilled a wide-open three. Rivers, the son of Clippers [...]

Fresh off his Most Improved Player award from last season, the Suns’ Goran Dragic will become arguably the most sought after free agent this summer. LaMarcus Aldridge, Marc Gasol and Kevin Love will also be available, but Dragic is still coveted. Dragic sounds like he will enjoy going through free agency, as he states every [...]

From the moment we were introduced to Shawn Marion’s funky shot release, we knew he had to be talented to make it as far as he had with a shot like that. Shawn was drafted in 1999 and has enjoyed a very fruitful career. But this may be the end of the line for Marion, [...]

And so, too, were the Celtics. Here’s Green Street’s Ben Rohrbach with more: Other than the late addition of Evan Turner at [...]

Allow me to tell you a secret. Injuries suck. The NBA has been a hotbed for injuries and sad storylines early on, and it sucks and blows simultaneously. So, too, does the whole early-season confusion. There is so much inconsistency around the Association this time of year. Good teams aren’t good, bad teams aren’t bad, [...]

We are now just a month away from the highly anticipated 2014 NBA Draft. Following a surprising NBA Draft Lottery where Cleveland snagged the top overall selection for the 2nd consecutive year, we can now begin to formulate our newest Mock Draft based on team needs. The top tier obviously includes a trio of talented [...]

For the longest time, former Lottery pick Darko Milicic has been considered the most disastrous #2 overall selection in NBA Draft history, or at least in the modern era. But after the still only 24 year old Michael Beasley, the #2 pick in 2008, was released this past week, could “B-Easy” be creeping up on [...]

Max contracts usually solve everything, just not in the case of Eric Gordon. After receiving a four-year deal worth $58 million from the New Orleans Hornets this past summer, Gordon has pouted, been injured and, most recently, engaged in a shouting match with head coach Monty Williams. Oh, and he’s essentially been put back on [...]
