Last night, the Los Angles Lakers fell to the Golden State Warriors. L.A. can ill afford too many more losses, as every game means that much more to them now. During the second quarter, David Lee landed an alleged accidental to Dwight Howard’s mouth. This actually caused Dwight to get three stitches. Perhaps Kobe is [...]

  John Wall scored a career-high 47 points and added eight assists, Emeka Okafor had 21 points and nine rebounds, and the undermanned Washington Wizards beat the Memphis Grizzlies, 107-94 Monday night. Wall shot 13 of 22 from the field and made a career-high 19 free throws on 24 attempts. [...]

Kevin Martin’s tenure with the Oklahoma City Thunders stands to live on. We think. With the volume-scoring guard set to explore unrestricted free agency upon season’s end, much has been made of his future, or lack thereof, in Oklahoma City. Not because of his performance, though. He’s averaging 14.3 points on 44.9 percent shooting (42.6 [...]

Nothing lasts forever and UCLA’s Ben Howland just learned that. The Bruins have decided to part ways with their coach after a decade on the sidelines. Typically when a coach is fired, it’s because he underperformed. But you can’t necessarily say that’s the case here. In his 10 season, Howland led the Bruins to three Final [...]

Several months ago, it seemed to be a certainty that the Sacramento Kings would be moving to Seattle. But there have been countless “snags” along the way for Seattle basketball fans. Sacramento isn’t just going to give away their team and they’re not going down without a fight either. After finding new investors a few [...]
