Allow me to tell you a secret. Injuries suck. The NBA has been a hotbed for injuries and sad storylines early on, and it sucks and blows simultaneously. So, too, does the whole early-season confusion. There is so much inconsistency around the Association this time of year. Good teams aren’t good, bad teams aren’t bad, [...]

You guys. It wasn’t a dream. The NBA is still back. Shhh. Stop fist-pumping and -bumping and -twerking so loudly. You might scare the regular season away. There. That’s better. The first week of the 2014-15 season was crazy. There were plenty of exciting games, and even more devastating injuries.  There were surprise wins, and [...]

Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god. The NBA is back. Like, really back. Not summer-league back. Not FIBA World Cup back. Not training camp back. Not preseason back. Regular-season back. The Hoop Doctors’ totally awesome, not-at-all restrained power rankings back. That’s right. After a months-long hiatus—during which time yours [...]

Sacramento’s loss is Phoenix’s gain.

Ugh. Just when you think Rajon Rondo trade rumors are dead for the time being, they’re revived, but not really. Consider what follows to be a lesson in recycling. T-Spence, a sports radio host, tweeted this: [tweet https://twitter.com/tspence26/status/500931306599886848] It created some buzz, but not much. BasketballInsiders.com picked it up…I think: [tweet https://twitter.com/BBallInsiders/status/501274440596873216] Don’t bother clicking [...]

August and the NBA don’t together. News is typically slow this time of year, leaving fans and scribes to look for topics of interest and note. When the Kevin Love rumors aren’t flowing and the San Antonio Spurs offense isn’t running like a well-oiled, time-tested machine, that’s a ridiculously hard task. Benny Kriefall of Minnesota [...]

As you have heard by now, we are a month into NBA free agency and the Phoenix Suns and their 24-year-old do everything point guard Eric Bledsoe (or “Mini LeBron” as he’s called) are still far apart in their negotiations for a new contract for the restricted free agent. The Suns reportedly offered Bledsoe a [...]

No, you’re not experiencing deja vu. This is just a firsthand run-in with the Sacramento Kings.
