Chris Paul and LeBron James are good friends off the court, which is why the Phoenix Suns star finds it “crazy” and difficult to play the Los Angeles Lakers forward in the 2021 postseason. The Suns and Lakers are in a tight first round battle, with Phoenix tying the series to 2-2 with a 100-92 […]

The “washed-up” LeBron James was at it again. Emphasis on the quotation marks.

The King looked like he was having fun out there, making acrobatic plays and dishing to teammates all game. […]

Andre Drummond loves being LeBron James’ teammate on the Los Angeles Lakers.

Remember when LeBron James and Anthony Davis played poorly in Game 1 against the Phoenix Suns? Yeah, that feels like a glaring aberration now.

Dear Los Angeles Clippers fans, It’s me, a diehard Lakers fan who comes to you with sincerity- and more. After the offseason that landed the Clippers Paul George in a wild trade, and the same offseason that had Kawhi Leonard spurn the Lakers and sign with the Staples Center rivals, it was time. The rivalry […]

Stop me if you’ve heard this: anonymous NBA executives are complaining about the Los Angeles Lakers. This time, it’s about the treatment LeBron James received after breaching the league’s COVID-19 protocols.

Starting any sort of GOAT debate involving Luka Doncic is utter blasphemy at this point.

For most of the Phoenix Suns’ stellar season, it was Chris Paul and Devin Booker who heaped praise from fans and analysts. But in the first two games of the playoffs, Deandre Ayton is finally getting some love. Frankly, his play should’ve been noticed way earlier. His averages might have gone down in his third […]

A recent visit to the basketball cards section of the Upper Deck online store denotes “we can’t find products matching the selection.” Those seven words are a depressing summary of the demise that the once-thriving business suffered. They do sell sports memorabilia like autographed game-worn LeBron James shoes and a Michael Jordan Fleer rookie card. But […]

The Los Angeles Lakers relied on “championship DNA”, crunch-time execution, and increased assertiveness and focus — namely from their two stars, LeBron James and Anthony Davis — to take back home-court advantage from the Phoenix Suns and even their first-round series at 1-1. "It's about championship DNA and we got that." @KingJames talks with @LakersReporter […]

The Miami Heat have only been around since the 1988-89 campaign, but they already have a rather rich history in the NBA. Obviously, the Heat aren’t at the level of cornerstone franchises like the Boston Celtics or Los Angeles Lakers, but the fact that they have already won three championships in spite of being a […]
