Four games into the season, the New York Knicks’ highly-touted rookie in Kristaps Porzingis has been proving his critics wrong thus far. The fourth overall pick of this year’s draft has posted respectable averages of 11.3 points and 6.3 rebounds. This has definitely given Knicks fans more reason to feel optimistic about not just their [...]

Kristaps Porzingis is hurt. Again. But his injury isn’t believed to be serious. Again. Late in the fourth quarter of the New York Knicks’ 94-84 loss to the San Antonio Spurs, Porzingis and Carmelo Anthony were involved in a chaotic scrum for an offensive rebound; Anthony came up with it and either fell or stepped [...]

The Washington Wizards would be smart to offer a contract extension to starting shooting guard Bradley Beal, but they made an ever wiser decision to delay the negotiations. Although Beal deserves a new deal and the Wizards are almost certainly going to pay the Florida product whatever he wants, the front office properly exploited the [...]

Blake Griffin is a beast. He proved that during their season-opener at Sacramento on Wednesday night, during which he finished with 33 points, 8 rebounds and four assists. But he didn’t stop there. Last night, Blake Griffin was on Beast Mode yet again. He led the charge for the Los Angeles Clippers with his game-high [...]
