DeMarcus Cousins is arguably the best center in the league right now—and he showed us why on Monday night when they went on the road to face the Brooklyn Nets. Just under 4 minutes remaining in the game, Cousins aggressively attacked the paint and threw down an emphatic slam over the defending Mason Plumlee and [...]

Knicks Not Interested in Fire Sale Trades…Yet
The New York Knicks aren’t ready to give up on their 2014-15 season. Which is weird. At 5-28, the Knicks are off to their worst start in franchise history. They have the most losses of any NBA team, and they look like a patented shit show. Mathematically, at 9.5 games back of eighth place, they’re [...]
LeBron: “Right Now, We’re Just Not Very Good”
The Cavaliers had a slow start to the season, then got hot, and have slowed down once again. Although they’re 18-12, Cleveland lost at home to the lowly Pistons by 23 points on Sunday night. The loss of Anderson Verajao eliminates the only legit rim protector they have, but that’s no excuse for this loss. [...]

Nets Tried to Trade for Rondo

Stuck in the throes of a season that has them contending for eighth place in the Eastern Conference, the Nets find themselves in a tough situation, footing an extravagant salary and luxury-tax bill for a mediocre product. Their next move, then, is obvious: Blow stuff up. Shop Deron [...]
Pistons Waive Josh Smith
For the amount of talent he has, it’s rare that anything positive is said when Josh Smith’s name is mentioned. It’s usually followed by some sort of punchline of comment about 3-point field-goal accuracy (or lack thereof). From the onset, you never got the sense that Stan Van Gundy was a fan of Josh Smith. [...]
Happy Holidays from The Hoop Doctors!
The Hoop Doctors want to wish you all a very safe and happy holiday season. Here’s hoping you were all good boys and girls so Santa will wipe out that christmas list. We too will be visiting with family and friends, so we will be closed for business December 23-26, 2014. Of course if we [...]
Kings Talking Deron Williams Trade
Sure. Mike Malone is no longer the coach of the Sacramento Kings for stylistic reasons, mainly the fact that ownership and management want the team to run fast. So, naturally, in the post-Malone era, that’s led them to targeting a trade for the Brooklyn Nets’ Deron Williams, a former All-Star with paper ankles and spongy [...]
