This one’s all about you. No, not you, Steven Tyler, lead singer of Aerosmith. I know you’re reading, but this isn’t about just you. It’s about all of you, the fans. Imagine the worst version of yourself; the absolute most-insufferable supporter of your favorite NBA team. Then times it by 10. Or more. That’s what [...]

Well it’s official.  Monday, the Indiana Pacers officially signed much maligned big man Andrew Bynum. The 7’1, 285 lbs center that was a former NBA All Star and 2 time NBA Champion with the LA Lakers has worn out his welcome with 2 NBA franchises(Cleveland and Philadelphia) over the past 2 seasons and now goes [...]

As we approach the All-Star break, everyone is jockeying for position, especially in the weaker Eastern Conference where every win can vault you up the standings. The extra effort leading in to the all-star rest for those that didn’t get the nod to play, means some more amazing highlights for us to showcase. Check out [...]

The 2014 NBA All-Star Weekend festivities happen in New Orleans this year. So accordingly, the adidas sneaker pack uses Mardi Gras as inspiration for the colorways. Good enough reason to have a lot of paint speckles to me. Even if Kobe Bryant isn’t participating in any on-court All-Star festivities this year, his presence is still [...]

Newly named 2nd time NBA All Star Joakim Noah likely will be a few thousand dollars short in his next game check after a vicious expletive tirade directed at the referees Monday night as the Bulls took on the Sacramento Kings.

Following a loss to the league-worst Milwaukee Bucks, the New York Knicks dropped to 19-29 on the season, 1.5 games out of the Eastern Conference’s playoff picture. With contests against the Portland Trail Blazers, Denver Nuggets and Oklahoma City Thunder imminent, New York’s postseason hopes aren’t exactly rock [...]

Don’t worry, Dante. Chris Paul and Blake Griffin have your back. The NBA sphere has been abuzz with anticipation since Dante Exum, a 6’6″ guard out of Australia, declared for this summer’s draft. He’s expected to go in the top five, and scouts value him for all sorts of reasons—his improving jumper, athleticism, first step, [...]

It was recently reported that the Phoenix Suns are interested in trading for Pau Gasol. One way or another, you get the sense Pau won’t be in a Laker uniform by the end of this season. Phoenix has a bunch of draft picks and an expiring contract (Emeka Okafor), so they definitely have assets. However, [...]

Evan Turner’s career got off to a slow start by most measures. He may even admit the same thing. However, he has shown promise recently in his career. Enough promise to make him trade-able? Perhaps. With the hot start to Michael Carter-Williams’ career and Nerlens Noel waiting in the wings, the Sixers are looking to [...]

A few years ago when the Bulls signed Carlos Boozer via free agency, he was thought to be the low post presence the team sorely needed. But as the years have gone on, he has proven to be anything but. Lately, Boozer has found himself on the bench during the end of games in favor [...]
