Dirk Nowitzki

Chris Paul continues to make no guarantees. Though the Los Angeles Clippers have the third best record in the Western Conference and are willing to do just about anything Paul tells them to, the point guard is still reportedly unsure of what he’ll do this summer. According to T.J. Simers of the Los Angeles Times, [...]

Kevin Garnett isn’t going anywhere. The Boston Celtics reached a proverbial crossroad when they lost Rajon Rondo to a torn ACL for the rest of the season (and beyond?). Given what his playmaking abilities meant to this team, there are few things that the Celtics wouldn’t consider doing to instill some sort of change. Dealing [...]

The Los Angeles Lakers aren’t going to trade Dwight Howard, and Magic Johnson should remember that. Per Matt Formica of Hoopsvibe.com, Johnson took a controversial stance on Howard’s situation: Magic Johnson just made it clear (on National TV) that if he was Lakers CEO Jim Buss, he would trade Dwight Howard. “If I’m Mark Cuban, [...]

Mark Cuban and Dirk Nowitzki want the Dallas Mavericks to not just win, but contend for a title. But is that even possible? With the current roster, no. Hence Cuban’s interest in holding a fire sale. Or rather, a “I’ll take on any contract you don’t want if I like them” sale. Though Nowitzki’s return [...]

There’s dumb, there’s stupid, there’s completely insane and then there’s the idea that the Los Angeles Lakers should trade Dwight Howard to the Dallas Mavericks for Dirk Nowitzki. You might think I’m an idiot for mentioning it—and I may very well be—but just know my crime is only acknowledging that the concept exists. According to [...]

The NBA’s Development League kicked off its showcase week with a couple of match-ups earlier Monday.

This year, it [...]

The Dallas Mavericks are struggling. Like really struggling. Like they need Dirk Nowitzki to drop 25 a night bad struggling. But that’s no reason to rush the rehabilitation on his surgically repaired knee. Dallas was given a gift when Nowitzki made a surprise return against the San Antonio Spurs. Since then, he has continued to [...]

Oklahoma City’s most talented hoop artist is looking to join a very exclusive group: the 50-40-90 club. Larry Bird, Mark Price, Reggie Miller, Dirk Nowitzki, and Steve Nash make up this club of players who have achieved 50% from the field, 40% from three, and 90% at the freethrow line for a full season. That [...]

The Phoenix Suns continue to make difficult decisions surrounding the team’s status at point guard. If the team isn’t being goaded into trading Steve Nash, it’s throwing a pile of money Goran Dragic’s way. And now, Phoenix has opted to place Kendall Marshall, their rookie facilitator outside of the rotation. According to Michael Schwartz of [...]

The Dallas Mavericks have thought about it, they know it’s inevitable, but there’s no use pretending Mark Cuban and company were hoping it wouldn’t happen. I’m of course referring to the team being forced to face life without Dirk Nowitzki. Nowitzki, one of the NBA’s most durable and prolific scorers, is having knee troubles, the [...]
