Knicks coach Derek Fisher filed for divorce back in March of this year and Matt Barnes’ wife is “estranged.” The two instances couldn’t be any more unrelated except for the fact that they are. Apparently, Fisher is dating Barnes’ estranged wife and Matt isn’t too thrilled about that. The two apparently got into a physical [...]

We’ve been hearing rumors for a while that Jimmy Butler and Derrick Rose aren’t as close as you’d think. One guy is the face of the franchise, while the other is on the rise. Apparently, Butler isn’t happy with how hard Rose works. Naturally, Butler will likely deny these reports, but where there’s smoke, fire [...]

Byron Scott, head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers, cannot see Kobe Bryant, a career-long member of the Los Angeles Lakers, playing for another team other than the Los Angeles Lakers. Well, that’s surprising. In absolutely no way. New York Knicks team president Phil Jackson sent Twitter into a miniature tizzy at the start of [...]

In typical fashion, or at least what we have become accustomed to seeing from the Warriors, Curry and co. proved why they are the most exciting team in the league. And defending champs as the icing on top. When Steph Curry [...]

Kawhi Leonard doesn’t do celebrations. Not even when there’s almost $100 million involved? Not even when there’s almost $100 million involved. The 24-year-old signed a massive extension with the San Antonio Spurs this past summer, one worth nearly $95 million over the next five years. And when he finally put pen to paper on said [...]

Danilo Gallinari is ever the optimist. Even though he’s spent the last two seasons battling injuries, missing the 2013-14 campaign entirely, Gallinari isn’t down. Not that he should be. He played well during FIBA Eurobasket, and the Denver Nuggets signed him to a two-year extension worth around $34 million over the offseason. Tack on his [...]

The Hornets have a nice young core and were primed for to take a step further this year. But that plan has been derailed (on paper, anyway) as Michael Kidd-Gilchrist needs to undergo shoulder surgery.
