The Wizards have very legitimate chemistry issues. There have been multiple reports that have gone public about ineffective players only meetings (are they ever effective) and players taking veiled or not so subtle shots at other members of the team. Gortat is usually at the center of this as one of the more difficult personalities [...]

The New York Knicks’ future just got a whole lot bleaker. Early in the second quarter of their Tuesday night loss to the Milwaukee Bucks, Kristaps Porzingis completed a dunk over Giannis Antetokounmpo, only to land awkwardly on his fellow unicorn’s foot. He crumpled to the floor and immediately began writhing in pain, all but [...]

Trading Blake Griffin apparently wasn’t a signal from the Los Angeles Clippers that they’re prepping for a full-scale teardown. If it was, they would be nearing deals to send DeAndre Jordan and Lou Williams to other teams in advance of Thursday’s trade deadline. Not only is this not the case, as of now, but the [...]

In what one would assume will be one of the more ho-hum trades of the next few days leading up to the deadline, the Bucks acquired Tyler Zeller from the Nets.

The Indiana Pacers are probably the NBA’s biggest surprise this season as the No. 5 team in the east at the moment with a 30-25 record. While much of the acclaim and rightfully so has been for Victor Oladipo and his breakout season that has led to his first All-Star nomination, one of the key [...]

The Los Angeles Clippers already through the NBA for a loop by unexpectedly trading one marquee power forward, in Blake Griffin. Could the Orlando Magic be readying a similar move? Yes, we’re talking about exactly who you think we’re talking about: Aaron Gordon. The Magic are apparently testing his trade value around the league in [...]

After rumors of a deal and the deal reportedly falling through at one point, the New Orleans Pelicans have acquired Nikola Mirotic in a trade with the Chicago Bulls. [tweet https://twitter.com/ShamsCharania/status/959128268464119808?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw] The pick is top five protected this season, which means unless the Pelicans miss the playoffs again and land in the top three, the [...]

The Moose is no longer on the loose in the valley of the sun. The Suns and Greg Monroe agreed to a buyout for the remainder of his $17 million annual salary for this season. [tweet https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/958907611579142144?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw] Monroe played well in limited minutes and opportunity in Phoenix, averaging 12.5 points, 8.0 rebounds and 2.5 assists [...]

C.J. McCollum was in the zone last night. The Blazers shooting guard was on fire from the start, with an incredible 1st quarter that included 28 points and 11-for-18 shooting… He outscored the Bulls 28-19 in the 1st quarter. He finished his special night with an incredible 50 points in three quarters on 18-for-25 shooting [...]
