Two new pairs of Allen Iverson’s second signature shoe drops towards the end of the month in the ‘All-Star’ Answer 1. There is something for everybody not matter which set you rep with both a [...]

The interwebs are a wonderful place aren’t they? Where else could you have the pleasure of coming across gems like this Michael Jordan poster from China that depicts the GOAT as a military war general. It’s an old cliche, love not war, and in this case love=basketball. Although, of all the players in the NBA, [...]

Metta World Peace may be headed to the New York Knicks. After clearing waivers on Sunday, the World Peace sweepstakes began. As with all things Metta, his free agency is bound to be an adventure. According to Marc Berman of the New York Post, it’s one that may lead him right to New York to [...]

Remember back when Shaq blew the internet’s mind after posting this picture of him and girlfriend Nicki ‘Hoopz’ Alexander. Keeping in mind Hoopz isn’t exactly a large person, you still get a better picture of just how massive Shaquille O’Neal really is. Or when he dwarfed ‘The Rock’ at a fitness gym. And now there [...]

The one championship. Everything. Pierce spent 15 years in [...]

Steve Nash was right, Dwight Howard really didn’t want to play for the Los Angeles Lakers. The NBA free-agency period is winding down. Most of the big-name players have signed, and a majority of the drama is over. And still I find myself writing about the Lakers on an almost daily basis. Partly because I [...]

The Brooklyn Nets just added a nice bench, complimentary player in Andrei Kirilenko. However, in doing so, they’ve added to their already unprecedented luxury tax bill but that doesn’t seem to bother owner Mikhail Prokhorov. Kirilenko will be the Nets mini-mid level exception player and actually took less money to play in Brooklyn. He could’ve [...]

Looking at the Atlanta Hawks, you just can’t help but shake your head. They let Josh Smith walk, which is cool. I was exhausted from writing about him, them and the rift that existed-but-didn’t-really-exist-except-it-did-exist between them. Snagging Paul Millsap was more than fine by me, too.
