LeBron James is not happy with the Cleveland Cavaliers’ performance. It doesn’t matter that they own the Eastern Conference’s best record despite a banged-up roster. And it most certainly doesn’t matter that their outlook only seems brighter when you factor in the eventual return of All-Star Kyrie Irving, who has yet to play this season. [...]

Some NBA players cannot come to grips with their age, let alone the limitations that come as a result of that age. (Shout-out, Kobe Bryant.) LeBron James, though, is not one of those players. As he approaches his 31st birthday (December 30), he has never been more accepting, or more obvious about accepting, that he [...]

The latest signature sneaker for LeBron James continues to pick up stream with this new, regal colorway. Officially called the Nike LeBron 13 ‘Pot Of Gold’, this new colorway is mostly black with deep purple and metallic gold accents.

Is runner-up fatigue a thing? LeBron James sure thinks so. Championship fatigue is a more accepted phenomenon. It’s when reigning NBA champions struggle to find inspiration and drive and the motivation to play at full tilt every night following their title-toting campaign the year before. Health plays a part too, since extensive postseason pushes take [...]

Life is, by all appearances, good for the Cleveland Cavaliers. They are winners of seven straight leading into Friday night’s bout with the New York Knicks and own the Eastern Conference’s best record. LeBron James is playing defense like it’s 2010 and balling out on offense when he feels like it. (Though, I must ask, [...]

Stephen Curry update: Stephen Curry is still really good. Really, really good. So good that he’s used the Golden State Warriors’ first eight games as his own personal plaything—a stage on which he has humiliated defenses, torched twine, made twenty-point quarters a regularity and, above all else, put the NBA’s early season MVP race in [...]
