LeBron’s out again, so the Lakers need another awesome Anthony Davis game tonight
OK, let’s try this again....

Anthony Davis got injured again, and it’s getting late early for the Lakers
The league leader in heading to the locker room during games has to be either Anthony Davis or Kristaps Porzingis....

Knicks fans were skeptical, and then Derrick Rose became their third-most important player
When the New York Knicks added Derrick Rose from the Detroit Pistons about three months ago, the overwhelming concern was whether or not he’d interfere with Immanuel Quickley’s growth....

The Mavericks have time to figure out what a Luka-KP led contender looks like, or if one even can
When Googling the phrase “Dončić Porzingis,” the first hits all direct you to stories about their relationship, chemistry, and beef. [As of this writing, at least.] That’s not to say there’s friction between the current two Dallas Mavericks cornerstones, but rather, the outside hunger for there to b...

Chris Paul is the MVP this season, don’t be stupid
CP3 should be the MVP this season....

It was Old-Timers' Night at Madison Square Garden
I could have sworn there would be some sort of sign when the Knicks returned to relevancy. Unpredicted bird migrations, horses running through the streets, green skies, things of that nature. Knicks fans have been waiting...well, most of my adult life for the chance to be as obnoxious as their Yanke...

Kyrie Irving is present and accounted for and the Brooklyn Nets’ MVP this season
For sure, nobody wants to hear it....

For now, Julius Randle and the damn New York Knicks are still here
Conventional thinking in the form of many NBA media members suggested that the New York Knicks would, to some degree, fall off by now, and rightfully so. They’ve had one of the league’s most challenging schedules since March’s All-Star break and that will remain as such through the end of the season...

Why the hell is Grady Sizemore trending on Twitter in 2021, and what does it have to do with Bo Jackson?
People apparently enjoy painful memories, as the twitterverse is currently talking about a lot of “what could have beens.” Waking up this morning, not quite fully caffeinated, I saw that Grady Sizemore was trending, and immediately questioned the entirety of the space-time continuum. A tweet was pos...

Jeremy Lin deserves a roster spot, but the NBA is drunk on bare-minimum contracts
Much like Isaiah Thomas signing a 10-day contract on April 3 with the Pelicans, Jeremy Lin is just looking for one more chance in the NBA. Based on his G League production this past season, he’s earned it. As I said last week, the league has a problem with its veterans being cast aside in favor of y...

The Dallas Mavericks are officially ‘in the mix,’ which is good enough in this crazy season
Part of your initiation as a young NBA nucleus is getting your ass whooped in the playoffs. But last season, the Dallas Mavericks were robbed of what could’ve been....

Jazz and Suns give us a sensational late-night cookie in a season lacking real drama
I’ve used this space to try and quiet any meaning to NBA regular-season games. It’s been especially acute this season, when teams have rarely been at full-strength, and they seem more intent on just being intact for the playoffs, which they know are what counts and are more likely to have at least s...

The players we’d most like to see in the Big 3’s new season
According to a report from Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports, the Big3 is returning after their 2020 cancelation due to COVID....

Who do we actually think is going to be moved in by the NBA trade deadline?

Anthony Edwards is averaging 23.5 points per game since we engaged in that stupid conversation about that no-fun Nate Duncan tweet reacting to the dunk of the year. ...

It's Gone With the Wins for the Suns, Who are All of Us Right Now
There’s probably a harsh life lesson in going unbeaten in a rearranged season and becoming one of the biggest stories in the NBA and still not even making the play-in round. This is the Phoenix Suns’ lot in life at the moment. Sometimes you can do everything perfectly and it still won’t matter and o...

Four Squads, Two Spots: Today Will Be The Best Day Of The NBA Bubble To Date
By the end of the night, The Bubble is going to pop for two teams in Orlando....

Bow Down Before The Mighty Devin Booker And His Unstoppable Phoenix Suns
I don’t want to alarm you, but you should begin to prepare for a world where the Phoenix Suns are NBA champions. It’s the only logical conclusion one could come to after one of the league’s sorriest franchises beat the Clippers on Saturday, 130-122, without their starting center (Deandre Ayton) or ...

Deandre Ayton Suspended For 25 Games, How Are The Suns Always Like This
The godforsaken Suns got their season off to a rare positive start Wednesday, erasing an 11-point first-half deficit and wiping out the visiting Kings, 124–95. Exciting second-year center Deandre Ayton was a huge factor, piling up 18 points, 11 rebounds, and four blocks, and finishing a game-high pl...
