The Charlotte Hornets had a chance to take over the sole possession of the eighth seed on Tuesday night, but they failed. The Brooklyn Nets handed the Hornets their 34th loss of the season, 132-121. To be honest, the game was a lot more of a blowout than it seems. The Hornets were down by […]

Since joining the Philadelphia 76ers, James Harden has brought multiple new elements to the team.

The Golden State Warriors are on a five-game losing streak after falling to the Denver Nuggets on Monday night with an extremely shorthanded roster. The Warriors’ last win was a blowout victory against the Portland Trail Blazers, which came back on Feb. 24. Since then, Steve Kerr’s Warriors have lost their identity. The shorthanded team […]

In the last four games, Golden State Warriors rookie Moses Moody has been nearly perfect. It took the 2021 lottery pick three games to miss his first shot.

Following the Los Angeles Lakers loss to the San Antonio Spurs on Monday, Russell Westbrook used his post-game press conference to stand by his wife, Nina, for her recent posts about the harassment directed at their family, adding that the “shaming” of his name has gone too far — to the point where he doesn’t […]

No one expected the Portland Trail Blazers to beat the Minnesota Timberwolves. They’ve been awful offensively with Anfernee Simons off the floor since the New Year, and Portland’s latest star shot-maker joined Damian Lillard, Jusuf Nurkic, Nassir Little and Justise Winslow on the sidelines Monday night with a left quad contusion. Considering the impressive fight […]

The Brooklyn Nets continue a downward trend as they just can’t get a healthy team on the floor. The most impactful absence of their season has been Kyrie Irving. His disinterest in getting vaccinated makes everything hard on these Nets. And the team continues to hope for change from NYC, since they seem to have […]

Kyrie Irving isn’t shy and he isn’t boring that’s for sure. And his description for Boston Celtics fans who boo him and have words for him during games, won’t do much to improve the “relationship” he has with his former fan base. The Brooklyn Nets visited Irving’s former team on Sunday afternoon. But it was […]

In nearly two full seasons, Brooklyn Nets head coach Steve Nash has rarely had a fully healthy team. The Kevin Durant-Kyrie Irving-James Harden trio barely took the floor at the same time, resulting in massive disappointment. Swap in Ben Simmons for Harden and things haven’t improved at all yet. The latest timetable for Simmons’ possible […]

Ben Simmons is in many ways the perfect fit for a struggling Brooklyn Nets squad. He’s selfless and dedicated to defense, running in transition, and pushing the tempo. These are all things Nets head coach Steve Nash has been preaching (but not always getting) all season long, but getting the 2021 runner-up for Defensive Player […]

The Portland Trail Blazers finally ran out of gas in the fourth quarter on Saturday night, falling to Karl-Anthony Towns and the Minnesota Timberwolves 135-121.

This LA Clippers season has felt like one hit after another, with the city’s, ‘other team,’ simply unable to catch a break all season long. It’s also been nothing short of spectacular.
