The NBA was close to losing Kevin Garnett. Nearly two decades deep into his career, the 37-year-old had plans to call it quits if he wasn’t playing under one non-negotiable condition: next to Paul Pierce. During a recent interview with China’s Sinas Sports (via Celtics Life) Garnett said he would have retired if he hadn’t [...]

After the usual rollout & marketing tactics (shouts to you Gerald Drain) for a new, premiere Jordan sneaker, this performance-drivin Jordan Super.Fly 2 makes its way to the Nike iD sneaker customization program. Available for anyone willing to put up the money for a pair, the Jordan Super.Fly 2 has multiple parts that can be [...]

There is much more to Jordan Brand than the Retro releases of silhouettes Michael Jordan wore. Some of the best Jordan basketball sneakers aren’t apart of the Air Jordan line. Jordan Brand releases the Jordan SUPERNOVA pack, featuring the first available colorway of the new Jordan Super.Fly 2 and Jordan CP3.VI AE; post season sneaker [...]

Chris Paul is excited to return to the Los Angeles Clippers. Don’t underestimate the power of excitement. It’s always better than hearing “Oh crap, I’m still playing here?” According to Arash Markazi of ESPN Los Angeles, Paul harbors no such resentment or regret about remaining in Los Angeles: “I’m excited,” Paul told ESPNLosAngeles.com. “I’m excited [...]

Watching the NBA Finals is too painful for Dwight Howard. That’s what I’m assuming anyway. What else are we supposed to believe? The Los Angeles Lakers behemoth admitted to TMZ that he wasn’t going to watch nor did he have any desire to watch the finals. “I’m not watching … I’m not playing so ain’t [...]

Kevin Garnett wouldn’t have been enough for Chris Paul and the Los Angeles Clippers. Perhaps five or six years ago he would have, but now. When the deal that would have landed Garnett and Doc Rivers in Tinseltown went South, Clippers fans shouldn’t have been jumping for joy. Seriously. Unloading DeAndre Jordan would have been [...]

Like the Boston Celtics aren’t already linked to enough mayhem. Boston and the Los Angeles Clippers are currently engaged in talks about a trade that would send Kevin Garnett and Doc Rivers (and potentially Paul Pierce) to Tinseltown in exchange for DeAndre Jordan and Caron Butler, among other pieces, one of which the Celtics had [...]

Donald Sterling strikes again. The Los Angeles Clippers showed Vinny Del Negro the door because of Chris Paul. They didn’t fire him, they just elected not to offer him a new contract. And now, as The Hoop Doctors has already told you, Paul’s pissed. How pissed? Enough so that he’s no longer a lock to [...]

Phil Jackson won’t be coaching the Los Angeles Clippers because, well, that would be creepy. The Clippers agreed to part ways with head coach Vinny Del Negro—whose contract was up—on Tuesday, paving the way for them to hire anyone they wanted—so long as Donald Sterling was willing to actually pay them and Chris Paul approved. [...]

Boston Celtics general manager Danny Ainge has no illusions about his current team. Though the Celtics came back from a 3-0 series deficit to bring the New York Knicks to a Game 6 in the first round of the NBA playoffs, Ainge knows that he doesn’t have a contender on his hands. He also knows [...]
