Of the many, many, many, many things Carmelo Anthony is criticized for, his apparent shortfalls as a leader remain most unsettling. After being traded from the New York Knicks to the Cleveland Cavaliers, J.R. Smith, a known friend of Anthony’s, essentially came out and explained the differences between Melo’s and LeBron James’ leadership qualities. He [...]

The Celtics are rebuilding and Isaiah Thomas is a good piece to build around. The PG seems like he could be on the brink of stardom and he has the opportunity to run the show in Boston. He’s also pretty confident in his abilities too. While team goal’s are atop his list, he also would [...]

Metta World Peace is a confident man. Maybe too confident. Maybe delusional. The 35-year-old hasn’t played in the NBA since 2013-14, and though he’s interested in returning to the Association, potentially with the Los Angeles Lakers, the odds are against him making any sort of substantive impact for any kind of team—unless, of course, you [...]

Eric Gordon’s feelings about the New Orleans Pelicans have changed. It was the summer of 2012, and Gordon, after spending a year in New Orleans following the Chris Paul trade, signed a max offer sheet with the Phoenix Suns in restricted free agency. Knowing the Pelicans (then the Hornets), could match that contract, he publicly [...]

C.J. McCollum knows it’s go time. Entering his third NBA season, McCollum now needs to make the transition from developing complementary piece to key building block as the Portland Trail Blazers look to rebound and regroup after a franchise-altering offseason in which 80 percent of last year’s starting lineup journeyed elsewhere, by way of trade [...]

Carmelo Anthony doesn’t seem as if he’s in the good graces of Colin Cowherd. On Tuesday’s The Herd with Colin Cowherd, Fox Sports’ newest talking head had something unflattering to say about the New York Knicks superst—er, I mean, the New York Knicks forward, because Cowherd clearly isn’t OK with calling Melo a superstar: "He's [...]

Mark Cuban is not one to hold his tongue or to hold back when he doesn’t particularly care for someone. He was recently asked by CNBC about the possibility of him ever running for president. Since Donald Trump is in the mix, all of a sudden there’s this feeling that anybody with a lot of [...]

It doesn’t look like Steve Nash will stay retired for too long. The former MVP is in talks with the Warriors to become a part-time consultant. It’s unclear at this point if Nash has any interest in coaching, but this would be a good first step and he’d join a recent list of recently retired [...]

Allen Iverson getting into the Hall of Fame isn’t exactly a question. But “when” was up in the air. The Answer was recently ruled 2016 HOF eligible after decision was made that could’ve pushed his eligibility back by a year. The uncertainty arises due to his brief stint playing in Turkey. The calendar distinction is [...]

“Linsanity” may be years old, but Jeremy Lin is still a household name because of it. Well, to some people anyway, and that doesn’t include the security at the arena in which the Hornets play. Lin attempted to enter Time Warner Cable Arena to workout and he was stopped by security who didn’t believe he [...]
