Not that long ago, Miami’s Chris Bosh had his home burglarized while his housekeepers and kids were home. Many think the housekeepers had something to do with it, but we don’t know for sure. But roughly a month later, his teammate had his home burglarized as well. Udonis Haslem’s home was also just broken into. [...]

It’s amazing how many storylines can develop in a single playoff series. In the Warriors – Nuggets series, first it was David Lee’s injury, then it was Stephen Curry’s hot shooting, and now it is Mark Jackson saying the Nuggets took dirty shots at Curry. But how about this. Reports indicate that in addition to [...]

For whatever reason, it always seems as if the Milwaukee Bucks are one of the more overlooked franchises in the NBA. Despite making the playoffs and having a respectable record most year, they always seem to fly under the radar. In fact, they have one of the more exciting backcourts, with Brandon Jennings and Monta [...]

Over the last few years beards became cool again in the NBA. The surge in popularity of the NBA beard started with Baron Davis, but hit its peak with James Harden when he was a member of the Thunder. However, a case could be made that Dirk Nowitzki single-handedly ruined the NBA beard this season [...]

For all intents and purposes, I think it’s safe to say that the 2012-13 NBA season was a huge disappointment for prized big men Dwight Howard and Andrew Bynum after that blockbuster trade last summer that sent Howard to the Lakers and Bynum to Philadelphia. While Howard struggled to regain his form after back surgery, [...]

Dwight Howard and the Los Angeles Lakers have entered unchartered territory. Never before has Howard, an unrestricted free agent, had the option of choosing where he will play. Not like this. Even when he forced his way out of Orlando, he wasn’t sent to his first destination of choice (Brooklyn Nets). For the Lakers, they’re [...]

This one is a slam dunk. No pun intended. From the very beginning of the season, Portland’s Damian Lillard looked as if he belonged. You knew he had to be special since the Blazers took him in the lottery from a mid-major. And he has never disappointed. Although Portland missed the playoffs, they have a [...]
