It’s time for more stray NBA thoughts. We made it through All-Star weekend. Looked like we weren’t going to make it when Machine Kelly was bricking layups at the Celebrity game and Cole Anthony scammed us all and snuck into the dunk contest even though he appears to have never dunked a basketball a day […]
The New York Knicks are currently 25-34 and have lost 13 of their last 16 games. They’ve blown 3 20+ point leads in the last 2 weeks. Every player regressed from their means. Yet somehow, head coach Tom Thibodeau continues to lead this team through the local landfill. The Knicks rank 27th in points per […]
For weeks there were reports saying the Sacramento Kings were shopping De’Aaron Fox because their second-year point guard, Tyrese Haliburton, had emerged as the superior player and leader of any future the team hoped to build. Jeremy Lamb AND Justin Holiday. https://t.co/0GbRwKcRBP — Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) February 8, 2022 Andddddd Haliburton is gone. Ok. The […]
For 8 years, Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum battled in the Western Conference and every single one of those seasons ended with the Western Conference beating their asses. As was tradition. But it’s all over after the Portland Trailblazers made a trade with the team ahead of them in the standings which is always a […]
Full trade: Indiana sends Caris LeVert and a 2022 second-round pick via Miami to Cleveland for Ricky Rubio, lottery-protected 2022 first-round pick, 2022 second-round pick via Houston and a 2027 second-round pick via Utah, per sources. — Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) February 6, 2022 1. As a Knicks fan watching this team sit at the […]
The Knicks blew a 21 point lead to the Los Angeles Lakers on national television Saturday night. They sit comfortably in the 12th seed with no signs of a second-half run in their system. The trade deadline is this Thursday. Time to blow this shit up Let’s rank each Knick based on who should be […]
Every year around the All-Star break when the NFL season is coming to an end and all our eyes are on the NBA, we are reminded of the massive separation in quality between TNT’s basketball coverage and ESPN’s. ESPN NBA Countdown is a terrible pre-game show and an even worse halftime show. Mike Greenberg, Stephen […]
With the All-Star break approaching, this feels like a perfect time to look around the NBA and see where everything stands. Sample sizes are large enough to assess what’s going on out here. The Phoenix Suns are the best team in the NBA, the Detroit Pistons are the worst. We all saw this coming. But […]
This weekend, there was a report saying Knicks head coach, Tom Thibodeau, would not be adding new addition, Cam Reddish, into the team’s rotation. New York recently acquired the 22-year old slasher who has played a grand total of 15 minutes in 8 games with the team. A lot of people are wondering why the […]
The 2021-22 NBA All Star voting is in and there are a few interesting results no one saw coming. Andrew Wiggins will be starting the game over guys like Chris Paul, Karl-Anthony Towns and Anthony Davis because we still vote for specific positions in a modern NBA where those don’t really exist anymore. But who […]
The Lakers Big 3 of LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Russell Westbrook have led the team to a below .500 record all season long as they continue to scratch and claw for the 8th seed in the Western Conference. All eyes have been on Russell Westbrook who appears to have no idea how to play […]
Last season, the Hawks embarrassed the Knicks in the first round of the playoffs. Trae Young shushed the MSG crowd and I’m punching my keyboard in a rage just thinking about how terrible the Knicks looked against that team. This season, the Knicks embarrassed the Hawks after sending Kevin Knox and a protected first round […]
Recently, the Houston Rockets have been in the middle of some turmoil as Kevin Porter Jr and Christian Wood were suspended one game for refusing to check into a game. They flipped out on their head coach and Kevin Porter went as far as leaving the arena at halftime. Turns out, putting together a team […]
Being a sports fan is the weirdest shit on Earth. I have spent my entire life defending the Knicks despite how terrible they’ve always been solely due to me being born in New York. No matter how bad the team performs, fans are expected to continually support them. If your favorite deli makes terrible egg […]
Everyone in the NBA has Covid but games are still being played every night despite most teams missing half of their rosters as guys quarantine. Instead of pausing the season or even ramping up Covid protocols, the NBA elected to give teams more roster spots which has granted us the opportunity to witness the return […]
Kyrie Irving has played a grand total of zero (0) NBA games this season. He refused to get vaccinated for reasons even Kyrie has not been able to properly articulate and unfortunately for him, New York City has forbidden citizens from entering buildings without their vaccine card. On one hand, it sucks that Kyrie plays […]
