Those hoping that the New York Knicks retain their 2015 draft pick aren’t in the clear just yet.

They’re by no means your [...]

Oh me, oh my: The Phoenix Suns are apparently at it again. After flipping two of the three heads on their three-headed point guard monster during the regular season—Goran Dragic and Isaiah Thomas—the Suns are now apparently willing to move Eric Bledsoe.

Ping pong gods are no fan of the New York Knicks. Phil Jackson and company had so much riding on Tuesday’s night’s lottery.

Breaking: Someone actually wants to play for the New York Knicks! Sure, that someone also longs to just play at the NBA level in general, but still, the Knicks’ll take it. And if they win the draft lottery, they’ll end up taking him—him being Kentucky’s Karl-Anthony Towns. Speaking on the life transition to come, Towns [...]

Doesn’t Charles Oakley know that, contrary to his playing days, the NBA is like one big band of loving brothers exchanging hugs and fist bumps and laudatory pleasantries? Sure doesn’t seem like it.
