Memphis Grizzlies

The Los Angeles Clippers are absolutely infuriating. Yes, infuriating. I personally spent a large chunk of the NBA offseason criticizing their roster and many of the moves they made; I simply didn’t believe they were a contender, or even a viable powerhouse for that matter. But then the season began. Los Angeles was 8-2, Chris [...]

San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich is currently both an NBA outlaw and, well, one helluva coach. Prior to the Spurs’ road game against the Miami Heat, Popovich made the decision to send Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker, and even sharp shooter Danny Green, back to San Antonio to rest. This was a [...]

I’m worried about the New York Knicks. More specifically, I’m worried about Carmelo Anthony and the effects his leadership will have on these Knicks. Anthony is having a sensational season.

I love a lot of the [...]

The Memphis Grizzlies lost a dynamic power forward last year to a partial MCL tear. Zach Randolph was sidelined in an early-season game against the Bulls. What followed was a 38-game stretch that forced the Grizzlies to progress through a tough conference without one of their stars. With Marc Gasol and Mike Conley leading Memphis in practically [...]

August 24, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors NBA fans in some cities have had to endure either losing their team or the fear of that happening. It seemed like every game that wasn’t a sell out in, say, Sacramento, was a harbinger of a move. Seattle’s story is one that remains with many fans. An [...]

August 20, 2012: R.S. De France – Given the recent news in Laker Nation that they have acquired Dwight Howard, we decided to rank this move against some of the other big Laker trades in NBA history…. [...]
