Anthony Davis has had enough of the New Orleans Pelicans playing the part of unlikely bottom-feeder. Entering the 2015-16 regular season, the Pelicans were considered playoff locks. They wouldn’t be a top-four Western Conference team, but they would appear in the postseason, perhaps as a No. 6 or No. 7 seed. Alvin Gentry’s offense would [...]

In case you haven’t noticed, Kevin Durant isn’t bashful when it comes to speaking his mind to the media. He has almost become a villain in that sense, even though his overall image hasn’t really been impacted by it. (Can you imagine if LeBron was the same way towards the media?, But I digress) At [...]

Prior to the start of the season, Steph Curry sarcastically apologized for the Warriors’ health. He grew tired of people almost giving them a hard time for remaining healthy on their quest for a title. And a few weeks ago, LeBron said the Warriors were the healthiest team he has ever seen.
