Greivis Vasquez wants Kevin Durant to join the Toronto Raptors via free agency in 2016. Excuse me for being so blunt and direct and not buttering you up with some clever catchphrase that’s almost lost in a brilliant metaphor. I’m so sorry. But this is just too weird. “Hopefully I get to play with him [...]

One play typically doesn’t decide the outcome of a game. Especially when a team is up by 13 with four minutes to play, and up 7 with less than a minute to go. OKC topped the Clippers in game 5 last night, but all anyone is talking about is this controversial out-of-bounds play. It appears [...]

When he was re-hired by the Cavaliers last offseason, I’m not sure many had high expectations of Mike Brown succeeding. I mean, he was fired for a reason, right? After missing the playoffs by 5 games, Brown has been fired by the Cavs once again. It was rumored during the season that Kyrie Irving wasn’t [...]

Amar’e Stoudemire may, at some point over his last three decades of life, have stayed at a Holiday Inn one night. But that doesn’t mean he parades around claiming to know things he doesn’t.
