There is never a good time for an NBA player to get injured, but Kentavious Caldwell-Pope’s groin injury comes at an especially unideal juncture. The 22-year-old wing injured his groin in the Detroit Pistons’ Wednesday night loss to the Boston Celtics and, per the Associated Press’ Dave Hogg (h/t Bleacher Report), is expected to miss [...]

Meet those who will revive the NBA dunk contest. Or something. Sources gave Cleveland.com’s Chris Haynes a preview of next Saturday’s dunk-contest lineup, and he was kind enough to share his intel: The field for the NBA Slam Dunk Contest scheduled for Feb. 13 in Toronto is set, according to league sources. The defending champion [...]

Now that Jeff Hornacek has been shown the door, it appears as if the team will try and revamp the roster too. Might as well. If this is the case, the first guy that should go would be Markieff Morris. Keef still hasn’t gotten over the fact that the Suns traded his brother, and it [...]

What time is it? NBA power rankings time. A lot has happened since we last met. All-Star rosters were finalized. The Warriors refused to lose. The Suns refused to let Jeff Hornacek keep his job. The Cavaliers found their mojo. The Bulls forgot how to score. The Spurs unleashed Kyle Anderson. The Knicks proved they’re [...]

Jodie Meeks won’t be taking the floor with the Detroit Pistons anytime soon. The 28-year-old guard hasn’t played since October 28 as he continues to recover from a broken right foot. And now, when it appeared that he might be nearing a return, Meeks must shut it down, per MLive.com’s David Mayo: Jodie Meeks’ fears [...]

Let’s ask the question that’s been burning a hole in our brains for months. Are the San Antonio Spurs as good, if not better, than the Golden State Warriors? No. No, they are not. Golden State proved as much during its 120-90 romping of San Antonio on Monday night, setting the stage for our power [...]

Andre Drummond doesn’t care that the fans voted in Carmelo Anthony instead of him as an Eastern Conference All-Star starter. Or does he? Per Rod Beard of the Detroit News: #Pistons Drummond on All-Stars: "I wasn’t voted in; it’s a fan thing and they voted for the guys they wanted to see. I can’t control [...]

Half of the 2015-16 NBA season is in the books. Pat yourself on the back. You’ve done it. You’ve watched, you’ve cheered, you’ve moaned. You’ve wondered why it’s taken the Suns so damn long to sell off Markieff Morris. You’ve pondered the meaning of life whenever the Spurs or Warriors take the floor. You’ve lamented [...]

The reigning NBA champion, historically good Golden State Warriors are back. Because, apparently, they left. Which is effing absurd. Draymond Green offered some pointed words following the Warriors’ shellacking of the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday night that should terrify the rest of the NBA. From the Washington Post‘s Tim Bontemps: “We kind of have that [...]

The Rockets-Pistons battle last night was not only highly entertaining and featured some classic performances but was also very bizarre. The Rockets trailed the Pistons by nine at halftime and employed the highly controversial “Hack-A-(insert player name)” strategy to new levels when fouling Drummond during the third quarter.
