Ty Lawson’s two DUI arrests this year are apparently just the tip of the iceberg as far as him and drinking are concerned. It doesn’t sound as if these were just two rogue incidents, per Nuggets brass. Apparently, the team has had to deal with Ty and his drinking habits before. Kroenke said on Tuesday [...]

It’s no secret Kobe Bryant may not be the best teammate in the history of professional team sports. He can be too hard on guys and distances himself whether he intends to or not. And just because new guys join the team, don’t expect him to break his neck and reach out to them. We [...]

It’s been awhile since we’ve heard from Baron Davis. The 36-year-old point guard last played for the New York Knicks during the playoffs in 2012. That was the last time he stepped on the court before suffering a devastating right knee injury, which looked to be the end of his career in the league. However, [...]

So about that rift between Chris Paul and DeAndre Jordan… When Jordan first chose the Dallas Mavericks over the Los Angeles Clippers in free agency, his relationship, or lack thereof, with his point guard seemed to be the driving force behind said departure. Now, on the right side of his offseason flip-flop, it appears the [...]

It won’t be today or tomorrow, but there will come a time when Mavericks fans will get over the DeAndre Jordan fiasco. Time heels all. But no guarantees on Mark Cuban getting over it, which is understandable. For the first time since flirting with the Mavs before ultimately going back to the Clippers, Jordan openes [...]

Kobe Bryant will retire as a shooting guard. Next season, though, he’ll probably log most of his minutes at small forward. Some of his minutes might even come at the 4, too. Wait, what? The Lakers just have too many damn guards. Players will have to, well, play bigger than they stand. That’s the only [...]

It’s good to know that Daryl Morey always has James Harden and Dwight Howard on his mind. Well, maybe not always. But certainly before he pulls off a blockbuster trade, like the one he brokered Sunday night, when he acquired embattled Ty Lawson from the Denver Nuggets for a lottery-protected first-round pick in 2016 and [...]

When you know you’re wrong, you know you’re wrong, and J.R. Smith knows he’s wrong. Sort of. Rather than opting into the last year of his contract that would have paid him well north of $6 million next season, the Cleveland Cavaliers’ volume chucker elected to hit unrestricted free agency, probably thinking that he, like [...]

The 2014-15 New York Knicks won 17 games, and it’s not hard to see why. Injuries, specifically that to Carmelo Anthony, played a big role. So too did the lack of talent on the roster. The Knicks, quite simply, weren’t very good. But they were also needlessly dysfunctional, especially before team president Phil Jackson blew [...]

At the beginning of the off-season, the Clippers had already been making changes. They have unveiled their new logos and uniforms, which arguably garnered both praise and criticisms from many. And now, the Clippers have revealed their newly designed court, which surprisingly has an abundant usage of black in the mix of their usual colors [...]
