Despite missing much of the season due to injury, the Spurs’ Kawhi Leonard has won the NBA’s Defensive Player of the Year award. He finished ahead of Draymond Green and DeAndre Jordan. Frankly, it’s nothing short of incredible that DeAndre Jordan has never won this award. He should probably have two now, as he’s in [...]

Well, this certainly didn’t take long. Rajon Rondo came to the Dallas Mavericks via trade in December. Despite initial hopes and projections, it seems like he’ll be gone by July. First, we start with some weird joo joo. Mavericks head coach Rick Carlisle pulled Rondo out of the team’s Game 2 loss to the Houston [...]

It has been speculated for a few weeks now, but today was D-Day for Scott Brook. He has been relieved of his duties of head coach of the OKC Thunder after seven very successful seasons. The irony in all of this is that if the Thunder would’ve won just one more regular season game, they [...]

With the NBA team in Charlotte gone back to the Hornets name (and uniform colors) it is only proper that Jordan Brand pay homage to the North Carolina city that helped honed the basketball talent of the player the company gets its namesake from.

After Tuesday night’s 111-99 loss at Toyota Center, the Mavericks now find themselves in a 2-0 series hole, with little hope of extending their NBA playoff push into the second round. Make that no hope. Nothing the Mavericks [...]

The Pelicans fought hard, but dropped another one at Oracle Arena to the Warriors last night as they face a 2-0 hole headed back home. Prior to game 2, Pelicans head coach Monty Williams complained about the crowd noise. He thinks that the fans are too loud in the arena and would like something to [...]

Greg Monroe and the Detroit Pistons may not be headed for a divorce. Of all the NBA’s impending free agents, Monroe has long been considered the consummate flight risk, and for good reason. Rather than sign a new contract in restricted free agency last summer, he inked his qualifying offer, ensuring he reached unrestricted free [...]

The 2014-15 NBA season marks a lot of firsts for Kyrie Irving. Not only did he get his first signature sneaker this year, but this is his first time in the Playoffs. To mark that occasion, Nike made this new Kyrie 1 colorway. Simply (and officially) called the Kyrie 1 ‘Home’ this pair has a [...]

Atlanta Hawks head coach, Mike Budenholzer has been rewarded by the league for his tremendous coaching success this season by being named as the NBA’s Coach of the Year for the 2015 season. At second place was the Warriors’ head coach, Steve Kerr, who trailed Budenholzer by just 42 points. While Jason Kidd, finished at [...]
