As a team […]

Under head coach Ime Udoka, the Houston Rockets built their identity on grit and defense. However, this season, that formula has flipped.

Ja Morant’s struggles on and off the court reached a new level after the Memphis Grizzlies star responded to a heckling New York Knicks fan, telling Morant to join the Knicks, with two simple words: “I’m cool.” “I’m cool” -Ja Morant when asked by a fan to come to NY. we don’t need him 🤦🏽‍♂️ […]

Nine months too late.

The Golden State Warriors lost another road game this season, and it marked their sixth consecutive road loss.

The New York Knicks have found their rhythm. Not only have they won their past five games, they’ve won them all by double digits. On Tuesday, it was the Memphis Grizzlies’ turn to get blitzed by this new and improved Knicks team under new head coach Mike Brown, as New York took a 133-120 win […]

Brandon Ingram became the subject of plenty of criticism over the weekend after his outburst led to a deplorable action involving a game attendant. During the Toronto Raptors’ 130-120 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers this past Saturday, Ingram was so filled with anger to the point where he slammed a water bottle while he was […]

The Denver Nuggets are humming, just as everyone expected, and Nikola Jokic is rolling. They have now won five consecutive games, with Jokic playing at an MVP level yet again. On Tuesday night, Jokic literally could barely miss. He finished with 35 points, 15 rebounds, and seven assists while making 16 of his 19 shots […]

Donovan Mitchell has been playing his heart out for the Cleveland Cavaliers to begin the 2025-26 season, perhaps to dampen the sting that remains from the heartbreaking manner in which they exited the 2025 NBA playoffs.

In what was supposed to serve as a “measuring stick game” between themselves […]

Had Mark Cuban remained in charge of the Dallas Mavericks as the majority owner, the Luka Doncic trade would not have happened. Alas, Cuban lost control of the team’s basketball operations when he surrendered majority ownership of the team to Patrick Dumont.

Free agent signee Luke Kornet has officially played in just three games for the San Antonio Spurs. Keyword: officially, because Kornet did see action in the team’s preseason games.

On Tuesday morning, the Dallas Mavericks fanbase finally got what it’s long been craving for — the firing of general manager Nico Harrison.

The Philadelphia 76ers, for as long as Joel Embiid is on the roster, will always want to be on the hunt for a championship. Their 7-4 start to the season is impressive in that regard, as Embiid is yet to go full-tilt since the start of the new campaign, with Philly still limiting his workload. […]

When NBA teams invite players to training camp, the harsh reality is the majority of them don’t really have a chance at making the team’s final roster.

The Philadelphia 76ers, all things considered, are having a strong start to the 2025-26 season.

What makes this 7-4 start to the new campaign that much more impressive is that Joel Embiid continues to be […]

The Dallas Mavericks’ 2025–26 NBA season has quickly descended into chaos, and the firing of Nico Harrison has compounded their terrible start to the season.

After they sputtered towards the end of the 2024-25 season, a slow start is not what the Memphis Grizzlies envisioned they would have entering the new campaign.

But looking at Turner’s […]

The Brooklyn Nets dodged a significant injury to a key contributor. Day’Ron Sharpe exited Sunday’s loss to the New York Knicks with what was reported as left hamstring tightness.
