Although he’s the furthest thing from a jump shooter, after most of his made jump shots, Joakim Noah acts as if his fingers are guns, blows them, then puts them in his imaginary holster. That’s part of the reason people don’t care for him. But in the wake of the tragedy of Newtown, Connecticut, Noah [...]

J.J. Redick is one of the best players the Orlando Magic currently possess. But he’s also a free agent at the end of this season. Which is why the Magic should trade him. According to Ric Bucher of Comcast, that may, in fact be just what the team ultimately does: More from the Trade Winds: [...]

This dunk by Charlotte Bobcats guard Gerald Henderson on the Lakers big man Dwight Howard was too nasty. It was sort of a hybrid between a Blake Griffin and throw in, and Howard’s own ‘superman’ dunk. The Lakers were able to sneak away with a one point win by the skin of their teeth. But [...]

So much has happened with the Lakers so far this season that you sometimes forget all about Steve Nash, who has barely played this year before going out with a leg injury. But Nash may be pretty close to returning. He may be back this Saturday vs. Golden State which will finally give us a [...]

I think it was quite obvious that the Clippers weren’t going to have too tough of a time handling the Detroit Pistons last night.

Granted, last night’s performance was out of the ordinary for Ibaka, but the trust his teammates showed in him offensively tells the story. Ibaka can do it [...]

Every basketball player has heard of the importance of “BEEF” (balance, eyes, elbow, FOLLOW THROUGH) when taking a set shot. Specifically for a free throw. So it shouldn’t surprise anyone that Thunder’s Kendrick Perkins is taking the follow through to a whole new level: [...]

Basketball sneakers made especially for Christmas isn’t anything out of the ordinary, but pairs made for the night before aren’t as common which is why adidas chose to do just that with a pair of the Rose 3. Inspired by Tim Burton’s movie ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’, the adidas Rose 3 ‘Nightmare’ features a wavy [...]

Andrew Bynum hasn’t seen the floor at all yet this year for the Sixers and we don’t know if he will at all this season. But his absence on the floor hasn’t stopped him from talking. The Lakers visited the Sixers over the weekend, and prior to tip-off, Bynum sounded off about his days playing [...]
