Ty Lawson has stated previously that he feels he’s overlooked in the “best PG” discussion. That may be true, as he’s often forgotten in that discussion and is perhaps severely underrated. He’s a tremendous ball handler and sees the court well. Regarding that ball handling part, Kirk Hinrich can vouch: Please enable Javascript to watch [...]

Now that he’s the all-time miss king, look for Kobe Bryan to offer up reasons as to why he’s been missing so much. A quick, easy answer is because if you shoot a lot, you’re probably going to miss a lot as well. But perhaps there’s another reason for Kobe. The 36 year-old blames tired [...]

There’s a lot for the NBA to be thankful for this time of year. Stephen Curry’s bombs; Marc Gasol’s everything; the Mavericks offense; the Kings’ illogical record; Jimmy Butler’s surge; Anthony Davis’ god mode; San Antonio being San Antonio; Damian Lillard’s cold-bloodedness; and so much more. Truth told, there is also plenty the league could [...]

The Houston Rockets are considering signing sixteen-year veteran forward Al Harrington, according to Yannis Koutroupis of Basketball Insiders. Harrington started the season in China, but then decided to opt out of his contract in order to make a possible NBA return, and one of the teams interested are said to be the Rockets.

Derrick Rose was back on the court last night for the Bulls and naturally, his appearance drew a bunch of questions post-game for head coach Tom Thibodeau. When asked asked about Rose’s play, Thibs offered a very interesting response; one that could be taken as either “I’m tired of talking about Rose’s injuries” or “Rose [...]

The Oklahoma City Thunder’s season has been going downhill from almost the start, as they have been struggling to win games without their all-star duo—Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook. They currently have the worst record in the west right now at 3-12. And yes, the Lakers have a better record than them. Shocking. But now, [...]

Oh, what could have been. Ahead of the Knicks’ loss to the Rockets on Monday night, Carmelo Anthony—who left the game with back spasms—admitted that Dwight Howard, who didn’t even play, tried really hard to get him to sign in Houston. Not to spoil the end of this story, but it didn’t work. Anthony remained [...]

You know things are getting bad for the 0-14 Philadelphia 76ers when turnovers are turning into viral memes on the internet within minutes. The play below from tonight’s loss to the Portland Trailblazers is making the rounds already, with headlines like this one about the Sixers looking for help from the refs in knocking down [...]

Give Kobe credit. He was written off and left for dead, but so far this year he has shown that he’s still got it. And “it” could mean bounce in his step or shooting at a high volume. Either way, he’s still very productive. But maybe too productive. Teammate Nick Young thinks sometimes the team [...]

The New Orleans Pelicans are off to a surprisingly good start so far at 7-5. That mainly has to do with the start of Anthony Davis, who is playing at an MVP level so far. Eric Gordon has also been paying huge dividends for the Pelicans so far as well, but he will be out [...]
