Walt “Clyde’ Frazier used to be one of the smoothest cats in the NBA during his playing days. He didn’t seem to be as suave doing his present job, however.

We all live in an age where it’s actually possible for people to define each other according to what pictures they double-tap on Instagram. Isn’t that too shallow?

New York City newspapers love their puns. Unsurprisingly, they simply couldn’t help themselves with their use of the eminently pun-able “Ball” name in their headlines for the Knicks’ win over Lonzo Ball and the Los Angeles Lakers at Madison Square Garden. Surprised there isn’t more Ball wordplay to go around. pic.twitter.com/Ct6vumQdM5 — Bill Oram (@billoram) […]

Kristaps Porzingis can sympathize with Los Angeles Lakers rookie Lonzo Ball. The New York Knicks star knows what it’s like for a family member to say something controversial.

Seems like everyone has an opinion about LaVar Ball, the father of Los Angeles rookie point guard Lonzo Ball.

We all know that New York Knicks forward Michael Beasley is the type of player/person who marches to the beat of his own drum, so while it’s surprising to learn that the former lottery pick fouled out of Sunday’s contest against the Atlanta Hawks after seeing just 10 minutes of playing time, it’s not as […]
