Over the past few months of the season, no player in college basketball has had a better close to the season than Creighton senior forward Doug McDermott. The nation’s most glamorous walk-on player surpassed names like Larry Bird, Elvin Hayes, Danny Manning, and Tyler Hansbrough to move into the Top 10 in all time scoring [...]

As the NCAA’s regular season comes to a close and Conference Tourneys get amped up heading towards March Madness, it’s time to hand out some hardware. Creighton’s Doug McDermott is the clear frontrunner for National POY, Wichita State’s Gregg Marshall is probably the favorite for Coach of the Year, and Duke’s Jabari Parker and Kansas’ [...]

It’s not often you see a guy turn down a free Division-1 scholarship to play ball overseas, but that’s what Aquille Carr, former standpoint HS point guard from Baltimore did. He’s not the first and probably won’t be the last. Carr first committed then changed his mind. But things didn’t exactly go as planned. Carr ended [...]

Phil Jackson has pretty much made it known that he does not want to coach. But that doesn’t mean he won’t take a front office gig. The Knicks have been in hot pursuit of Jackson over the past few weeks and according to ESPN, he’s likely to take that job. What this role will be [...]

Philadelphia is none too fond of Kobe Bryant for whatever reason, even as Kobe’s hometown. But Kobe may be unseated as the visiting villain. Surely Philly has more harsh feelings towards Andrew Bynum. Right? After sitting out all of last season due to injury, many fans feel as if the big guy didn’t try hard [...]

Don’t count on it, in part because Josh Smith and Rajon Rondo wouldn’t qualify as one of the great pairings; mostly because it’s just not going to happen. Before the Boston Celtics handed the Detroit Pistons another loss on Sunday evening, Smith openly [...]

Despite being proclaimed the best high school player since Lebron James, University of Kansas star freshman Andrew Wiggins hasn’t quite had the standout season some had expected in College Hoops. While fellow star frosh and potential one-and-done players Julius Randle, Jabari Parker, and even fellow teammate Joel Embiid have all had some pretty impressive offensive [...]

A few days ago, Paul George expressed that he would like for LeBron James to be his mentor during the offseason. I’m sure LeBron loves knowing that so many guys are dying to work with him. When this was relayed to LeBron, he seemed more than happy to oblige. LeBron’s hands are tied here. It’s [...]

We are on the brink of a major shakeup with the Knicks. A few months from now, the roster may look completely different than it does now. That includes Carmelo Anthony, of course. But the coaching situation may look different too. Mike Woodson has been reportedly on the hot seat practically the entire season, but [...]

For whatever it’s worth, Tyson Chandler is as challenged offensively as Kevin Love is defensively. That being said, the Knicks took on the T’Wolves a few nights ago and the two were matched up against one another. During halftime, Knicks reporter Tina Cervasio asked Tyson Chandler about his matchup with Love: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKto9xsrNQo Kevin Love apparently [...]
