With Stephen Curry starting in his second-straight All-Star Game (and this time in his first signature shoe), Under Armour laced him with the ‘Dark Matter’ colorway of the UA Curry One. For the ‘Dark Matter’ Curry One, Under Armour got the nickname from actual dark matter not being able to be directly seen, the material [...]

Potential blockbuster trade alert. Just kidding. What, you didn’t think I was serious, did you? From now on, assume everyone who says that is kidding. There has been so much action early on—significant, blockbuster action, mind you—it’s incredibly unlikely that any deals ahead of the February 19 trade deadline will fall into that category. More [...]

Bank on DeMarcus Cousins being named to the Western Conference’s 2015 NBA All-Star roster. It feels good to write those words in that particular order. Statistically speaking, Cousins should have been All-Star last season. He’s become a 20-point, 12-rebound, three-assist, one-steal, one-block guy. Those players make All-Star teams, even if they play center, which has [...]

Older players usually have a theory as to why the game has changed. They always look back at the beginning of their careers regard it as the ‘good ol’ days’. Paul Pierce is no different. The 37-year old is on a team in Washington that has a blend of young and old(er) players, and he [...]

Holidays are marketable. Using annual happenings as inspiration for product is cool, and for the first time ever, Chinese New Year will be acknowledged by the NBA in the form of special Golden State Warriors uniforms. February 19th marks the beginning of the Year Of The Goat and the restart of the Chinese zodiac calendar. [...]

They’re called the Splash Brothers for a reason. When it’s all done, if they stay together, Steph Curry and Klay Thompson will probably go down as the best shooting backcourt in NBA history. So, it’s only natural that they both compete in the 3-point contest at all-star weekend. It’s not everyday you see to high [...]

New York basketball fans just cannot catch a break. The Knicks stink something awful, sort of on purpose, but kind of an accident. They have the league’s second-worst record, have stripped the roster of most impact players, remain thin on young talent, will probably shut Carmelo Anthony down after the All-Star break and are, frankly, [...]

Kobe Bryant is done for the season. Probably. Initial assumptions were confirmed Monday, when the Lakers announced that Kobe would undergo shoulder surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff: [tweet https://twitter.com/Lakers/status/559807630370025472] At 36, with only one-year left on his deal, having faced roadblock after roadblock after roadblock, it stands to reason that Kobe would consider [...]

Kobe Bryant’s infatuation with Michael Jordan is well documented, as he resembles Jordan in a lot that he does. But perhaps his admiration goes even further. According to Kobe, he was so frustrated with the situation with the Lakers about a decade ago that he wanted to join MJ’s Wizards. Can you just imagine? More [...]

The all-star break is right around the corner, and shortly after that will be the time when playoff-bound teams start prepping their rosters to make deep postseason runs. The Dallas Mavericks are reportedly getting a jump start on that as they’re close to signing Jermaine O’Neal. The last we saw of O’Neal, in Golden State, [...]
