Blake Griffin’s days in the NBA, if he continues down the path he has been on in recent years, are numbered.

It hasn’t been a week since Blake Griffin signed with the Boston Celtics and he’s already making history with the team.

What Griffin did, however, is a Boston first as he chose […]

The Boston Celtics finally brought in a veteran forward with an All-Star past ahead of the 2022-23 NBA season, but it’s not the player many expected. Boston just signed 6-time All-Star Blake Griffin to a one-year, fully guaranteed deal.

Boston Celtics big man Luke Kornet will miss 1-2 weeks with a sprained ankle, per Jared Weiss. The news comes amid the Celtics signing Blake Griffin.

The Boston Celtics franchise has been in a bit of a pickle as of late. Nonetheless, they remain as one of the best teams in the NBA following a surprise run to the 2022 NBA Finals. But following the latest injury to Robert Williams III, reinforcements are needed. And help is coming in the form […]

Blake Griffin has had a pretty steep fall from grace over the past few seasons. The former “Lob City” member has lost his burst since his Los Angeles Clippers heyday, and has since spent time with the Detroit Pistons and Brooklyn Nets. Griffin is now looking for a new home, as he is reportedly not […]

The Brooklyn Nets have to invest in two things: their superstars and their future. That means letting go of aging assets and avoiding depreciating free agents. Keep in mind that the Nets made the 2022 NBA Playoffs, but they got swept by the Boston Celtics in the first round. That was not supposed to happen. […]

The Los Angeles Lakers have little margin for error when the 2022 NBA free agency period begins. Not only do they want to turn a flawed, 33-win team back into a playoff-caliber group, but they have to do so with extremely limited resources. On the eve of free agency, the Lakers have nine players under […]

Blake Griffin is coming off of his worst statistical season of his career. He averaged just 6.4 points and 4.1 rebounds across 17 minutes per game, all career lows. Some of that has to do with the back up role he had with the Brooklyn Nets. But, some of it was simply because he’s not […]

As the Brooklyn Nets find themselves in a 0-3 hole to the Boston Celtics, you can sort of feel the roof caving in on a difficult season. The Celtics had the Nets outclassed in this one. Kevin Durant has been in a funk this series and it persisted at Barclays Center. We didn’t expect that […]

In what has been a rollercoaster season for the Brooklyn Nets, they’ll now have to fight to keep their season alive in the Play-In Tournament.

At the beginning of the year, Blake Griffin started for the Brooklyn Nets. Now, he isn’t playing at all. He has been a healthy scratch in three straight games as head coach Steve Nash incorporates new acquisitions from the trade deadline into his rotation. Griffin joined the Nets last season looking to become a key player […]

It’s not every day your favorite team engages in an absolute blockbuster trade. Fans spend a lot of time concocting them on trade machines but so rarely do they actually go down. Thursday’s NBA Trade deadline was not one of those days. This time, we really got one. The Brooklyn Nets traded James Harden and […]

The Brooklyn Nets lost their eighth straight game against the Denver Nuggets on Sunday, and big man Blake Griffin couldn’t help but be worried.

The NBA Trade Deadline is coming up in the next few months and the Brooklyn Nets are once again going to look to add some guys just like they did a year ago. When a title contender has an opportunity to get better, they’re always going to do so. Brooklyn has shown throughout the past […]

The Brooklyn Nets are short on bodies. Kyrie Irving remains unavailable due to vaccination status. Joe Harris is still recovering from ankle surgery. Both of those players’ names have popped up in trade rumors recently as well. And that was before a COVID-19 surge hit the fully vaccinated members of the team. Just about one […]

David Kahn, a former executive for the Minnesota Timberwolves, takes aim at other teams who didn’t draft Stephen Curry after a reporter seeks comments. Long before Curry broke Ray Allen’s record for all-time three-pointers made, he was already considered the NBA’s greatest shooter ever. Previously sinking 400 threes in a season, garnering two MVPs, winning […]

When Sean Marks and the front office designed this Brooklyn Nets team, they knew it was going to be extremely top-heavy. With a major component of total cap space being allocated to Kevin Durant, James Harden and Kyrie Irving, that left precious few resources left for the rest of the squad. No one should be […]

Brooklyn Nets star Kevin Durant woke up on Sunday feeling extra generous. He was so in the mood for giving, he gave the Detroit Pistons a heavy headache after dropping a season-high 51 points. Durant toyed with every defender thrown at him, as the Pistons, playing without injured star Jerami Grant, looked hapless all game. […]

Blake Griffin admitted that he was surprised upon learning he was out of the Brooklyn Nets rotation. He came over from the Detroit Pistons via buyout market in 2021. The six-time All-Star was an important part of why the Nets were clicking defensively once the playoffs rolled around. Much was made of how few slam […]

When the season began, Brooklyn Nets fans had unusually high hopes for Nic Claxton, the former second-round pick in 2019. When the action first kicked off, it was Claxton who Nets head coach Steve Nash tapped to start in place of Kyrie Irving. The 6’11” big out of Georgia drew starts in the first three […]

Much like the rest of the NBA world, former Boston Celtics star Paul Pierce couldn’t believe that Kemba Walker and Blake Griffin have been kicked out of their respective team’s rotations. New York Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau confirmed recently that Walker has been officially removed from their rotation. Now, the Big Apple franchise is […]

In the battle for borough bragging rights, the first-place Brooklyn Nets (14-6) will host the seventh-place New York Knicks (11-9) on Tuesday. A couple of years now removed from the fateful 2019 decision made by Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant to sign with the Nets and not the Knicks in free agency, the big-market teams […]

The Brooklyn Nets have pulled veteran Blake Griffin out of their rotations. With the addition of LaMarcus Aldridge, Blake has found himself struggling to find playing time. For the Nets this season, Griffin is averaging 5.5 points, 4.9 rebounds, and two assists per game. Aldridge has played some great basketball for Brooklyn as he’s averaging […]

Blake Griffin started every game for the Brooklyn Nets with the exception of one contest to rest during a back-to-back set. But after only logging nine total minutes in Cleveland during the team’s 117-112 win, coach Steve Nash made the switch to LaMarcus Aldridge in the starting lineup. The seven-time All-Star got the start against […]

The Brooklyn Nets are openly seeking an offensive identity. They’ve made no secret that they believe finding one will take some time. Kevin Durant and James Harden came into the season healthy, but their “continuity plan” was abruptly shattered with the whole Kyrie Irving absence thing. Nets coach Steve Nash has been experimenting with his […]

At different times throughout the season, the Brooklyn Nets (now 11-5 and tied for first place with the Miami Heat) have talked about finding their identity. They were pretty honest in saying they didn’t have one at first and didn’t know what theirs would be during the season’s early grind. But it does seem as […]

The Brooklyn Nets improved to 7-3 with a hard-fought 116-1103 road win over the Toronto Raptors on Sunday. They now sit in third place in the Eastern Conference.

Brooklyn Nets teammates James Harden and Blake Griffin had the home crowd roaring after their alley-oop connection against the Miami Heat on Wednesday. Bruce Brown knocked the ball away from Tyler Herro near midcourt, leading to a loose-ball play which the Nets ended up winning. Brown tossed the leather to Harden, who then lobbed it […]

It’s easy to overreact to the first game of the season. The Milwaukee Bucks torched the Brooklyn Nets, with Steve Nash’s team looking like it’s going to have lots of problems in the season’s early going. Of course, all of the narratives might get flipped on their heads in a few hours after the Nets […]

Blake Griffin was a huge addition for the Brooklyn Nets last season, and has once again signed on for another run at the title. The six-time All-Star recently revealed how he ended up in Brooklyn, which was thanks in large part to a certain Kevin Durant. Griffin admitted that KD didn’t exactly pull out all […]

Los Angeles Clippers fans everywhere were taken by surprise when the team decided to send Blake Griffin packing back in 2018. This happened barely six months after he signed a massive extension with the team, so not many expected such a sudden and drastic change of heart from the front office. As it turns out, […]

When LaMarcus Aldridge retired last April, everyone thought there’s no chance he would return to the NBA. After all, his heart problem at the time was too serious that it forced him to leave the Brooklyn Nets abruptly. However, luckily for him, Aldridge was able to overcome the health problem and get a second chance […]
