The Boston Celtics have traded two second-round picks to the Orlando Magic in exchange for point guard Evan Fournier. The team planned to acquire a key player from Orlando in the midst of the Magic’s sell-off at the deadline, and this was rumored prior to deadline day. Boston just didn’t get the Magic player they […]

The NBA announced on Tuesday night that Knicks forward Julius Randle would be fined $15,000 for his recent transgressions against the league’s officiating. The King of New York dropped the F-bomb on the postgame Zoom call following a heartbreaking 101-100 home loss to the top-seeded Sixers on Sunday.

The New York Knicks have been in desperate search of a franchise point guard for over two decades now. Ever since Mark Jackson started all 82 games at PG for the Knickerbockers and averaged 7.4 assists per game during the 2001-2002 season, the team has endured very underwhelming production out of the slew of NBA […]

The New York Knicks have a history of making horrendous trades. The franchise truly has a knack for royally screwing its own future year after year. The team develops a promising young core, gives the fans hope, then trades it all away along with its future draft picks for some washed-up player who either gets […]

Well, well, well, Mavs fans. Looking back on the Kristaps Porzingis trade, maybe you were right about the move being a total fleece after all.

Hairstyles aren’t the only thing changing for Julius Randle in his second season with the New York Knicks. While I’m still waiting for him to break out the shoulder shimmy, the Knicks forward has been playing more like Julius Curry this season than the Randle of old.

What exactly is the NBA’s All-Star Game plan this year? Are all players (excluding James Harden, because he does it every game) going to social distance on defense? Will we see the NBA’s most lethal shooters masked up during the three-point contest? Will the rims be sanitized after every slam in the dunk contest? How […]

With Derrick Rose and Immanuel Quickley lighting it up off the bench lately for New York, it’s safe to say that Knicks fans have had enough of the Elfrid Payton experiment. Payton has been playing starter’s minutes throughout the season despite ranking 79th out of all NBA point guards in real plus-minus. His 11.8 player […]

I already know what you’re thinking. The Nets are downright stacked. They have three of the NBA’s top scorers playing together on the same team. They play in the East, which is clearly the weaker of the league’s two conferences. Nobody can guard Kevin Durant. James Harden is a triple-double machine. Kyrie Irving is a […]

Malik Beasley‘s sentence is a tough blow for Wolves fans, but it could mark the return of the in-game ankle monitor to the NBA.

Both Knicks fans and Pistons fans seem upset with the Derrick Rose trade. Then again, when aren’t Knicks fans and Pistons fans upset about something?

Let me start by listing all of the ways NBA teams this season have stopped Kevin Durant: contact tracing. Durant was scratched from the Nets’ starting lineup last night due to the NBA’s COVID-19 protocols. He then entered as a reserve, dropped eight points, six rebounds, and five assists in 19 minutes, then got pulled […]

This is going to be a hard pill to swallow for Lonzo stans, but LaMelo is already better. The Charlotte Hornets struck gold when they selected LaMelo Ball with the third pick in last year’s NBA draft.
