Playing for the Phoenix Suns must be nice. No, not because most of the players are making bank. Or because head coach Jeff Hornacek will babysit for free. Or because the arid climate compels you to go commando. Or because Goran and Zoran Dragic (probably) argue and celebrate and curse in Slovenian. The Suns just [...]

After their first five games of the season, the Los Angeles Lakers unsurprisingly remain winless as the team continues to struggle defensively and offensively. In majority of their games—it has been the ‘Kobe Bryant Show’ all throughout and in his age right now (36), he can’t do it alone anymore and he desperately needs help [...]

J.R. Smith’s reputation precedes him. During the fourth quarter of the New York Knicks’ 98-83 loss to the Washington Wizards on Tuesday, Smith appeared to hit Glen Rice Jr. in the groin as he was driving right. Though nothing happened at the time, Smith was later suspended for New York’s game against the Detroit Pistons [...]

Kevin Durant’s free agency is two years away but the discussion has already begun regarding where he’ll land. He seems loyal to OKC, but he’s also very close to his DC-area roots. Because the West is so tough, he’ll have a much better chance winning a title with the Wizards. Per Grantland, KD’s decision will [...]

The Cavaliers’ slow start is alarming but we’ve seen this movie before. This is very reminiscent to the start the Miami Heat had back in 2010. It will take time and there’s too much talent on that roster for this not to work. LeBron has a theory as to why the Cavs have started they [...]

You guys. It wasn’t a dream. The NBA is still back. Shhh. Stop fist-pumping and -bumping and -twerking so loudly. You might scare the regular season away. There. That’s better. The first week of the 2014-15 season was crazy. There were plenty of exciting games, and even more devastating injuries.  There were surprise wins, and [...]

The Lakers tough start was expected by most, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy to deal with. From the coaches to the players, everyone has to answer questions from the media. Head coach Byron Scott was asked about what he has seen early on from Carlos Boozer and coach feels he can get more out [...]

It’s been a while since we’ve seen a player hit a cameraman during a game. In fact, the only other time has to be Dennis Rodman in the late 90s when he kicked a cameraman in Minnesota. Last night, Tony Allen channeled his inner Rodman and slapped a cameraman for no reason. At least Rodman [...]

To say the Jason Kidd didn’t exactly leave Brooklyn on the best terms would be putting it lightly. We’ll never get the whole story, but this he said-he said version is quite amusing. Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov recently opened up about Kidd. Prokhorov hasn’t shared much about what happened with Kidd but he doesn’t exactly [...]

Kevin Durant wants y’all to know he left Team USA this past summer for the reason y’all already think he left Team USA this past summer. Paul George’s injury spooked him. During an hour-long HBO Sports documentary entitled “The Offseason: Kevin Durant,” the now-injured Oklahoma City Thunder superstar basically admits that he left Team USA’s [...]
