Raymond Felton got off to a hot start as PG for the Knicks who boasted the best record in the East during the early going of the season. But he has missed significant time of late due to a broken finger. In his absence Jason Kidd assumed most of the ball handling responsibilities. But it [...]

It’s official. The NBA’s New Orleans franchise will have the silliest team nickname in the history of sports. The Hornets will become the Pelicans. The pelican is the official state bird of Louisiana, but that still doesn’t make it right. Doesn’t sound very intimidating to say “the tough Pelicans come to town tomorrow night.” This [...]

Kobe Bryant’s play lately has been atrocious. Specifically, his shooting percentage has been directly the cause for the Lakers last three losses. He is simply shooting the team out of games by himself as his teammates continue to put in solid performances on very limited touches. So, it is for that reason that I’m not [...]

Even though Dwight Howard finally made his move to L.A. last summer, he’s still a free agent at the end of this year and can bolt. But if the Nets have it their way, they’ll nab his before then, since he’s not what he used to be (no yet, anyway) and his value may be [...]

I think we all, whether we liked it or not, were forced to follow the whole Kris Humphries and Kim Kardashian saga last year. Well now that she’s with Kanye West and with child, that seems like the distant past. Except for maybe the Brooklyn Nets Kris Humphries himself, who probably still feels burned by [...]

The Cavs’ big man has been hospitalized since Thursday, limited to little outside of a regime of blood thinners. He’ll have to continue taking those blood thinners [...]

Since it was announced that Dwyane Wade would be forming a partnership with Li-Ning to launch the Way of Wade line, people wanted to see the sneaker. Pictured above is Dwyane Wade with associate Nile Patrick and two big boxes of different pairs of the Way of Wade, the first WADE Brand sneaker that Dwyane has [...]

Kevin Durant was just named the Western Conference player of the week for games from January 14th to 20th. His performance was enough to garner the honors, and then some. We weren’t sure the POW honor was enough to do it justice, so the editor of our THD Video weekly series decided to shine some [...]

Peter Vecsey tweeted this shortly after the announcement that the Maloofs have sold majority ownership in the Sacramento Kings to a Seattle investment group: Source says almost living lock Phil Jackson will become front office face of Seattle-bound Kings’ franchise. Won’t coach. Will mentor choice — Peter Vecsey (@PeterVecsey1) January 21, 2013 So will Phil [...]
