Dwight Howard is the king of free throws. Blind free throws, that is. Superman challenged Houston Rockets teammate James Harden to a blind free-throw shooting contest according to a report from the Houston Chronicle and brought to us by ESPN.com. Howard apparently defeated Harden, hitting on 8-of-10 from the line with his eyes closed. “I [...]

A 37-year-old Kevin Garnett has still got it. Age won’t extinguish the competitive fire he has left, and it most certainly won’t deter him from being honest. That’s not how it was with the Minnesota Timberwolves, that’s not how it was with the Boston Celtics and that most certainly isn’t going to be how it [...]

Kobe Bryant must never change. Seriously, he can’t. Chills, the bad kind, are sent down my spine when I think of how much more mundane topics of conversation would be if he changed. Or stopped talking altogether. Case in point: Los Angeles Lakers media day. It was a glorious occasion, one that wasn’t as filled [...]
