Never say J.R. Smith doesn’t have goals. Conventional goals, mind you. Not aspirations to open up his own chocolate factory that’s managed by Willy Wonka and a platoon of Oompa Loompas. Not hopes of one day building and living in a house made of beef jerky, cheese and ranch dressing. Actual, basketball-related goals that demand [...]

On the heels of another delusional tirade by banned Clippers owner Donald Sterling, the Clippers lost 104-98 to the Oklahoma City Thunder. How? How does the team with the best floor leader (Chris Paul), the best coach (Doc Rivers), and best frontcourt (Griffin/Jordan) lose a playoff series? In the critical game 5, the Clippers blew [...]

The New York Knicks were old last season. Really old. Historically old. And Raymond Felton knows it.

Knicks close [...]

Kenyon Martin doesn’t want his ride with the New York Knicks to end. After spending most of the season waiting by the phone for an NBA team to give him a shout, the 35-year-old Martin has found a home in the Big Apple. And per Ian Begley of ESPNNewYork.com, he’d like to keep it that [...]

Anything can happen leading into the NBA trade deadline, but that hardly means everything we hear will. As such we must take Alex Kennedy of HOOPWROLD’s latest report that the New York Knicks are targeting Josh Smith with a grain of salt: Every year at the trade deadline, there is at least one move that [...]

Kenyon Martin and the New York Knicks continue to dance around and toward each other. According to Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports, the Knicks are once again considering signing the veteran power forward: As Rasheed Wallace’s foot injury lingers, the New York Knicks are showing a renewed interest in free-agent forward Kenyon Martin, league sources [...]
