Today was Kevin Durant’s day. Not only did the NBA superstar win his first NBA MVP Award after finishing second the past few years to LeBron James, he also was chosen to be on the cover the latest edition of NBA2K15. Since Durant has yet to win a championship, this has to count as the […]

Jamal Crawford Wins His Second NBA Sixth Man Of The Year Award
I don’t think anyone else came close to challenging Jamal Crawford of the Los Angeles Clippers for this award this season. Congratulations to Jamal Crawford for winning the NBA Sixth Man of the Year award. With him narrowly missing out on this trophy last year, Crawford becomes only the fourth player in NBA history to […]
We Are One: Los Angeles Clippers & Their Fans Show Up To Play
“We are one.” Those were the only words on the Los Angeles Clippers’ website today after NBA Commissioner Adam Silver banned Clippers owner Donald Sterling from the NBA for life and fined him $2.5 million. The banishment, with Silver adding later in the press conference that he urges the other NBA owners to vote to […]
Check Out Blake Griffin’s New $9 Million Crib
No, Blake Griffin did not actually buy an overpriced baby bed. He bought a house. A really, really nice house. We’re not exactly sure when Griffin had the time to shop for a home, as he and the Los Angeles Clippers are in tough first round battle with the Golden State Warriors (the Clippers are […]

What’s With These NBA “Nickname” Jerseys?
I found myself a bit confused when I was watching the Miami Heat/Brooklyn Nets game tonight. I was confused because either I had a really bad case of food poisoning tonight and the names on the players’ jerseys were changing on their own, or the NBA had changed the names of the players for some […]
Joakim Noah’s Dream Team Starting Five Includes Corey Brewer
Joakim Noah is one eccentric, high energy fellow. I think we can all agree on that. His energy on the court is intense and it’s hard to find someone that is more passionate in a game. But when it comes to naming a dream team, Noah is definitely in a world of his own. He […]
Yes, Metta World Peace Compared Ryan Kelly To Kevin Durant
At first, I thought it was just a joke. We’ve all seen and heard Metta World Peace, formerly known as Ron Artest, make crazy comments in the past. So to hear this, I’m still not taking him seriously and it’s taken me a day to wait to make sure it was serious. It seems like […]
