Kevin Garnett Expected to Remain With Brooklyn Nets

Kevin Garnett Expected to Remain With Brooklyn Nets

Kevin Garnett’s career is not over yet. Watching Garnett this season was difficult. Sometimes, you couldn’t even watch him, and not just because he missed 28 regular-season games.

How does the team with the best floor leader (Chris Paul), the best coach (Doc Rivers), and best frontcourt (Griffin/Jordan) lose a playoff series? In the critical game 5, the Clippers blew [...]

Nets Owner Still Thinks Team Can Win Title

Brooklyn Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov hasn’t given up his team. Meaning? He’s a far better man than I am. Although the Nets have began the season 16-22, waffling in and out of the Eastern Conference’s playoff picture, Prokhorov has yet to give up hope. His team was supposed to contend for a title following the [...]

Kevin Garnett Calls Doc Rivers ‘Damn Near Close’ to Perfect

Kevin Garnett Calls Doc Rivers ‘Damn Near Close’ to Perfect

Allen was the rat bastard traitor who left the Boston Celtics high and dry in 2012, spurning them for the Miami Heat and the opportunity to win a title. Rivers, who orchestrated his departure from Boston, is almost perfect. Or so says [...]
