The Golden State Warriors this season appear to have a problem with technical fouls, and that problem has recently been addressed by the team’s general manager, Bob Myers, per Chris Haynes of ESPN. Myers is reportedly worried about the rate at which the Warriors are accumulating technicals and ejections this season. Haynes laid out where […]

With the Cleveland Cavaliers making moves to completely overhaul their roster by the trade deadline, the Golden State Warriors stood idly by not doing much of anything at all on that front. Perhaps the Warriors wanted to wait for the buyout market, where the Warriors can get their hands on some good veterans that became […]

On paper, it seems that the best way to dethrone the Warriors grip on the current NBA crown is to boot up your favorite console, load NBA 2K18 and select enough legends of the game to give anyone problems. Forums are full of how Jordan, Johnson, Pippin, Bird and the like, would cause all sorts […]

If it weren’t for Koby Altman’s multiple power moves in the dying moments of the NBA trade window, the long-anticipated trade deadline would have passed in a somewhat anticlimactic manner. The Cleveland Cavaliers completely refurbished their roster in a flurry of unexpected moves, but the vast majority of teams stood pat, avoiding major alterations to […]

The Golden State Warriors were expected to complete some trade deadline moves. In past years, the Warriors have taken advantage of waived players and teams in need to dump their little-used talent. Not this year. The Warriors have actually made no transactions at all since the start of the regular season. Even the best teams […]

When it comes to the criticism Golden State faces, generally it’s a form of nit-picking.  The Bay-Area boys employ two of the league’s three best players, a top ten shooter of all time and Draymond Green.  Yet, for some reason, this criticism seems different.  Poor performance over the past several days starts highlighting a genuine […]

Sometimes, it’s the littlest things in life that can make us the happiest. Look no further than Golden State Warriors star shooting guard Klay Thompson and the cake of his beloved dog, Rocco, that he got on Thursday night for his birthday. According to a video posted by Mark Medina of the Mercury News prior […]

The Golden State Warriors have had some struggles on the court and it has led to a lot of outbursts at the refs. Steve Kerr has seemed to have had enough of the childlike behavior and has voiced his displeasure. Draymond Green has been very vocal about his displeasure with the refs this season, and […]

Joe Johnson was traded from the Utah Jazz to the Sacramento Kings and although he wasn’t a star for the Jazz, it did break a little girls heart. In the video below posted by young Skyler Kerwin’s dad, she was heartbroken when she found out that Johnson was traded. I understand it had to be done […]

Following a technical-foul marred game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, the ire and rift between Draymond Green and the referees didn’t cease during Thursday night’s game against the Dallas Mavericks. Green picked up his 14th technical foul with 8:12 left in the second quarter after pushing the ball out of bounds following a layup make, […]

The NBA made a series of changes to the All-Star game to try and get the players to compete a little harder for the sake of a more competitive and entertaining game. They took the top two vote-getters and they became the captains of their own teams, instead of the classic East and West format. […]

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green is going to be flashing some new metal in his mouth when his team takes on the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday night at Oracle Arena. Green was elbowed near the end of the second quarter in Tuesday’s loss to the Oklahoma StateThunder by Jerami Grant. He was left with […]

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green’s pockets will be a little lighter after the NBA fined him a dizzying amount of money for his antics during a 125-105 loss at home to the Oklahoma City Thunder last Tuesday, according to Chris Haynes of ESPN. Golden State forward Draymond Green has been fined $50,000 for directing […]

There is a good chance that veteran shooting guard Joe Johnson’s stay with the Sacramento Kings may not last long. Johnson was sent to Sacramento after being part of a three-team trade that involved the Utah Jazz, Cleveland Cavaliers, and Sacramento, but is reportedly seeking a buyout from the Kings. According to Kelly Ilko of […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers shocked the basketball world as they completed a series of trades prior to Thursday’s deadline as they totally shook their roster up.

In a frenzied NBA trade deadline, Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant reacted to the biggest move of the day, as the Cleveland Cavaliers traded their recently-acquired point guard Isaiah Thomas, Channing Frye, and their own first-round pick for Los Angeles Lakers guard Jordan Clarkson and forward Larry Nance Jr. “They got better,” Durant said, […]

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr had some questions to answer after his team’s recent lackluster play that resulted in three losses in four games. The media had to ask him what has been ailing the team especially after a 125-105 home loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder Tuesday night. In an interview that […]

Despite being included in some trade rumors as Thursday’s deadline nears, Golden State Warriors center JaVale McGee still remains with the team and no deal has materialized yet. While there is growing belief that he will be moved, he made it known that he prefers to stay in Oakland. The 30-year-old Nevada product understands that […]

Draymond Green is one of the most versatile players in the NBA today and the Golden State Warriors have been the beneficiaries of his all-around brilliance. Recording a triple-double doesn’t guarantee a win but in Green’s case, it does. In the 24 games in which Green has notched a triple-double, the Warriors have been undefeated, […]

Golden State Warriors shooting guard Klay Thompson became the second-fastest player to eclipse the 1,500 three-pointer milestone during last night’s game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, taking only 517 games to reach the mark. The fastest you ask? None other than his backcourt mate Stephen Curry, who did so 40 games quicker. Klay Thompson hit […]

If the rift between NBA players and officials hasn’t been enough of a prominent storyline in this 2017-18 season, inching closer to the postseason won’t help matters at all. During Tuesday night’s TNT showdown between the Golden State Warriors and the Oklahoma City Thunder, referee Lauren Holtkamp had one of the biggest gaffes of her […]

The Oklahoma City Thunder did something to the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night that had not been done in over a half-decade. In their 125-105 drubbing of the Warriors at Oracle Arena, the Thunder never trailed. Not even once. There has not been a Warriors home game where Golden State has not at any […]

Following his ejection during the Golden State Warriors’ Tuesday tilt against the Oklahoma City Thunder, forward Draymond Green elected not to speak with the media about the incident, rather choosing to keep some money in his pocket after the hefty fines that await him for two separate technicals and a consequent ejection. “Nah, I’m going […]

The Golden State Warriors imploded in a bar-measuring tilt against the Oklahoma City Thunder and their emotional leader Draymond Green was no exception. Green received a technical foul after the first half ended with a missed layup attempt from Russell Westbrook, going over to complain to referee Lauren Holtkamp, visibly angry from a prior play. […]

For the first time during the entire 2017-18 season, the Golden State Warriors are currently on a losing streak. After their sloppy 125-105 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday night at Oracle Arena, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr opened up about the team’s current state and questionable officiating. Via a video posted on […]

The matchup between the Oklahoma City Thunder and Golden State Warriors on Tuesday was a highly-anticipated one as it features some of the biggest stars in the league today. With Carmelo Anthony forced to exit the game early after tweaking his ankle, Paul George and Russell Westbrook knew that they had their work cut out […]

The Oklahoma City Thunder just annihilated the Golden State Warriors on their home court with a 125-105 beating Tuesday night. But what might be more embarrassing than the Warriors’ home loss is one erroneous call by the referees late in the third quarter. The Warriors’ Kevin Durant was called for a tripping foul on the […]

The Golden State Warriors finished their game against the Oklahoma City Thunder sans Draymond Green. The All-Star forward got ejected after serving his second technical foul for lobbing the ball toward the referee. While the action may seem innocent, Green’s reputation did not help his cause as the officials appear to have a special ability […]

When it comes to the Oklahoma City Thunder lately, they have really been struggling to finish teams off down the stretch. A lot of that has to do with how poorly they have been playing defensively, which stems from the loss of guard Andre Roberson for the season due to a ruptured left patella tendon he […]

Russell Westbrook, like his counterpart Kevin Durant, have grown tired of the excessive and at times intrusive questions from the media surrounding the rivalry between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Golden State Warriors and themselves. So tired, in fact, that Westbrook made one of the reporters answer his very own question and walk out […]

The slash between the Oklahoma City Thunder and Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant isn’t as deep as it was during his first season in a new uniform, but that didn’t keep the media from asking the question during Tuesday’s practice, ahead of a second matchup against them. Durant has about had it with the […]

After playing three years alongside him, Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant knows what it’s like to go one-on-one against a legitimate perimeter hound in Andre Roberson. Durant found out what it’s like to be in the opposite side of the fence for the first time last season, as the two got into a heated […]

With the trade deadline approaching on Thursday, there are rumors swirling about teams that may be looking to make some big trades to bolster their rosters. One of the rumors circulating involves Avery Bradley and the Golden State Warriors. The Warriors have been trying to add to their bench, and like the idea of Bradley […]

What do Stephen Curry and legendary “Pistol” Pete Maravich have in common? Both showed off some ball-handling wizardry with the basketball, are tremendous scorers, good passers, and like shooting threes. This last statement might not be as fitting, as the 3-point line was not introduced to the NBA until 1979, Maravich’s last season in the […]

With a day off on Sunday, Golden State Warriors star guard Stephen Curry took advantage of it to watch Super Bowl LII live at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minnesota. However, he was booed by the fans and did not receive the warmest of welcomes from the fans of the Philadelphia Eagles and New England Patriots, […]

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr is no longer making any excuses for his players’ poor performance. After a sound loss to the Denver Nuggets after falling to the Utah Jazz by a season-high 30 points two games ago, the man at the helm noted fatigue would be no longer the scapegoat. “I think […]

In lieu of his recent induction into the NFL’s Hall of Fame, Golden State Warriors star Kevin Durant decided to send a special shout-out to Randy Moss. Moss, now 40 years of age, was a first-ballot inductee — and for good reason. Over the course of his illustrious career, the Rand, West Virginia native played […]

After a lackluster win the other night over the Sacramento Kings, Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr was disappointed. He said the team was “mentally fried,” possibly looking ahead to the All-Star break while still having some games to play, like the one Friday night against the Denver Nuggets. The Warriors lost to the […]

During the third quarter of last night’s Houston Rockets 120-88 blowout at Cleveland, James Harden attempted a three-pointer while being closely guarded by Cavaliers’ Isaiah Thomas. The 5-foot-9 point guard closed out on Harden while the latter was in his shooting motion with the former’s feet under Harden’s landing space. This caused “The Beard” to […]
