So that was fun…for some teams. The 2014 NBA draft lottery is over. Finished. Kaput. Next stop, the NBA draft. Well, first we need to finish the Conference Finals. And crown an NBA champion. Then it’s on to the NBA draft. Here are some thoughts for each lottery team, along with their draft position, on [...]

Doug McDermott doesn’t think the San Antonio Spurs are boring. Across casual NBA circles, the Spurs aren’t always held in high esteem. The age, boring, humdrum, they-must-be-flawed-because-they-just-must-be narratives remain overplayed and, unfortunately, prevalent. Diehards know better. Media members know better. Smart people know better. McDermott, who is preparing to enter the NBA after four years [...]

March Madness, here the NBA comes. While many of you remain transfixed on your television screens, waiting to see how long it takes before Wichita State gets screwed by vengeful and begrudging bracketing practices, some of us still care about the NBA. And its playoff race. And whether or not LeBron James can win another [...]

Three cheers, eight fist-pumps and infinite twerks for movement. The NBA is rife with movement this week. Goliaths fell, Davids ascended and the enfeebled experienced success. Translation: It’s been weird in the NBA lately. (Spoiler alert.) (Seriously.) (Don’t read what comes next if you don’t want to ruin the below contents.) (I’m not joking.) (Okay, [...]
