Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan have been one of the best duos in the NBA for half of a decade now. They look as dangerous as ever thus far in the 2017-18 season (especially DeRozan) as they are 29-12 and in 2nd place in the eastern conference. The special partnership on and off the court [...]

Some NBA players are vibing the new All-Star Game format, in which two captains are tasked with assembling rosters irrespective of conference affiliation. Other players, though? Not so much. The Golden State Warriors find themselves adequately represented in both departments by Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry—two players who not only share opposing views, but who [...]

How did LaMarcus Aldridge go from unsatisfied and out of place with the San Antonio Spurs to happily extended, all in the span of one offseason? By asking Gregg Popovich to trade him, of course. No, that’s not a joke. It’s serious. As the Spurs’ head coach told reporters, Aldridge is not only still in [...]

Gordon Hayward had one of the more grotesque leg injuries that we have seen in the NBA for a while on opening night when the Celtics took on the Cavaliers in Cleveland. While most would safely assume that Hayward was done until next fall, there have been rumors that have popped up at times over [...]

Why no, Isaiah Thomas did not purposely clothesline Andrew Wiggins across the throat during the Cleveland Cavaliers’ Monday night drubbing at the hands of the Minnesota Timberwolves. Not according to Isaiah Thomas, at least. Just three games into his return from a hip injury he suffered las season, Cleveland’s point man earned himself a Flagrant [...]

For the first time during his run as Houston Rockets general manager, Daryl Morey doesn’t expect to be making too many moves in advance of the NBA’s trade deadline. This is both shocking and not at all surprising. Idleness isn’t Morey’s bag. He’s proved that time and again. But the Rockets, even with their recent [...]

As the Los Angeles Clippers continue to sneak back into the Western Conference’s playoff picture, the DeAndre Jordan trade rumors are dwindling in number and persistence.
