Ryan Anderson and Stan Van Gundy, together again? Yes, please. The Detroit Pistons have positioned themselves to be big spenders this summer. They delayed an extension for Andre Drummond, used the stretch provision on Josh Smith in 2014-15 and have a number of non-guaranteed and expiring contracts that will allow them to create max-contract space. [...]

Here. We. Go. Again. The New Orleans Pelicans have battled myriad injuries this season. From a minutes limit for Jrue Holiday, to random absences of Anthony Davis, to recurring mishaps involving Tyreke Evans, and everything in between, the Pelicans’ downfall, aided in part by their badly built roster, continues to be fueled by unfortunate ailments. [...]

Damian Lillard, 2 time All-Star, has never shied away from the spotlight, whether it be in clutch moments on the court, or whether it be using his position as a basketball player to evoke change socially. As MLK Day and Black History Month rolls around for 2016, race issues have grown to a tipping point [...]

I really like infographics. I really like first-hand information that summarizes something great that’s occurred in history with respect to sneaker culture. That is why Nike putting out an infographic chronicling the Air Force 1 history is noteworthy. Called ‘The Morphology Of The Air Force 1’, this infographic takes you thru the history of the [...]

Daryl Morey lives in the now. And, by extension, so do the Houston Rockets. Relative to last season’s second-place finish in the Western Conference, the Rockets are laying a dud. They’re miles away, in terms of championship value, from the Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Clippers, Oklahoma City Thunder and San Antonio Spurs, and if [...]

Joakim Noah’s shoulder injury puts the Chicago Bulls in a tricky situation. The 30-year-old center needs to undergo surgery on his left shoulder and will miss four to six months, ending his 2015-16 season. Joakim Noah is slated for unrestricted free agency this summer and will most likely leave. A breakup between he and the [...]

Hopefully Joe Johnson enjoys playing out another year of his twilight with the listless Brooklyn Nets. Because he isn’t going anywhere. Not by the Nets’ hands at least. Some have speculated that Brooklyn would look to deal Joe Johnson’s expiring contract after firing head coach Lionel Hollins and reassigning general manager Billy King. But, as [...]

Times really are changing in Philadelphia. Used to be that the Sixers were one of the NBA’s trade-deadline draws, as they proved only last season in many ways, most notably with their decision to flip 2013-14 Rookie of the Year Michael Carter-Williams to the Milwaukee Bucks in a deal that netted them the Los Angeles [...]

Kristaps Porzingis is going to be fine. Cue the sighs of relief coming from New York Knicks fans everywhere. The rookie landed awkwardly on his right foot after going up for a rebound late in the fourth quarter of New York’s Monday afternoon double-overtime victory over the Philadelphia 76ers. He tried to shake it off [...]

“Psych!” -Kevin Durant, probably. Kevin Durant’s relationship with the media has, by many appearances, deteriorated quickly. He has gone from lovably infallible to ostensibly agitated. At last year’s All-Star festivities, when commenting on the job security of now-former head coach Scott Brooks, he claimed the media didn’t know shit. Most recently, he implied that the [...]
