So I’m going thru the normal process of gathering content for the site and I learn that 2014 will have the first Air Jordan Retro that I’ve been excited to get my hands on, in years. And a new colorway at that. The ‘Championship Cigar’ Jordan 4 gives off the appearance of having brown lux [...]

When Kobe hurt his knee several weeks ago, the timetable put his return at roughly the all-star break. He had his knee examined today and it turns out that he’s still about 2-4 weeks away. Many believe that Kobe should just sit out the remaineder of the season and come back next year, since the [...]

Kevin Durant is playing on another level right now. Another planet, even. Since Russell Westbrook has been out, his shots have increased and so have his points as a results. He is averaging 31.3 PPG and that’s thanks in large part to a huge January. His latest victim was Atlanta. Last night, KD stole the [...]

It seems that winning the Atlantic Division isn’t enough for the Raptors to keep their current core intact. Previous rumors suggested that general manager Masai Ujiri was looking to move Kyle Lowry in effort to, you know, tank. The Raptors had just traded Rudy Gay and didn’t figure into any meaningful conversations. Best thing to [...]

Even though KG was only in Boston for 5 years, it feels as if he was there for much longer. When he left for Brooklyn, it seemed as if we all forgot about his time in Minnesota. Paul Pierce on the other hand, spent 15 years there so there’s definitely history. Yesterday, the two made [...]

Jalen Rose is a funny guy. An interesting guy. Most of all, Jalen Rose is a man unafraid of making bold proclamations. During halftime of the Knicks-Lakers game Sunday, ESPN’s on-air personality did just that. Speaking on Carmelo Anthony’s impending free agency, this Rose made it clear he thought ‘Melo should join another Rose—Derrick Rose. [...]
