Danny Granger can be the answer for an Indiana Pacers team without a whole lot of questions. I’ve penned a number of thoughts on the star forward since he was shut down before the start of the season with a knee injury. Most have been responses to trade rumors that I simply don’t agree with. [...]

The Boston Celtics are undefeated since losing Rajon Rondo, which does anything but speak volumes about the point guard’s value to the team. Without Rondo, the Celtics are 4-0 and have snagged victories over the Miami Heat and Los Angeles Clippers, two authentic contenders. Naturally, after such immense, albeit brief, success, the narrative in Boston [...]

Ray Allen remains one of the NBA’s best shooters, but we may not get the opportunity to bear witness to such talents for much longer. Though the 37-year-old Allen signed a three-year pact with the Miami Heat, the next two are both player options. Contracts never prevent players from retiring in the first place, but [...]

In a season that started with the promise of four All-Stars joining together on a championship quest, the Los Angeles Lakers stumbled through their first big test of the season. Despite their troubles, the Lakers problems are fixable. Losses are just that, but the Lakers going 0-4 against some of the best teams in the [...]

Add the Denver Nuggets’ seldom used Timofey Mozgov to the never-ending list of centers the Miami Heat may opt to pursue. According to Chris Tomasson of Fox Sports Florida, the Nuggets have placed Mozgov on the chopping block and the Heat are among the teams who might make a play for his services: An intriguing [...]

These Danny Granger trade rumors just won’t go away for the Indiana Pacers and I, for the life of me, cannot figure out why. I understand the Pacers have the third-best record in the Eastern Conference. I understand that they’ve won a franchise record nine in a row at home and two straight over conference [...]

Andrei Kirilenko has had a pretty darn good return to the NBA thus far. Rejoining via the Timberwolves, “AK47” has been up to his old statistical tricks. Kirilenko is now averaging 13.9 ppg, 7.4 rpg, 3.9 apg, while also contributing 2 steals and 1.5 blocks per game. On two consecutive games, Kirilenko has had to [...]

Josh Smith has been a budding young star on an Atlanta Hawks team that has been consistently mediocre for nearly a decade. But that’s officially all changed. Atlanta’s explosive power forward is set to become an unrestricted free agent after this season, and through last year, all indications were that he would spurn the Hawks [...]

Joel Anthony doesn’t look like much, but to the Miami Heat, he means everything. Though the big man has never been much of an offensive player (2.6 points per game for his career), he is a rim-protecting savant, someone who the Heat actually utilized more than slightly last season. But that was then and this [...]
