Beast of the Night: Kevin Love finished with 24 points, 17 rebounds, seven assists and a three last night against the Rockets. He shot 50 percent (6-12) from the field, 100 percent (11-11) from the line and had two turnovers. Love remains a top-three fantasy beast this season and there’s no reason to expect him to slow down.

Watch Wizards rookie Kevin Seraphin get told by teammate Hilton Armstrong that his shorts are on backwards during last night’s game in New York. I mean, Washington is currently 0-21 away from the Verizon Center, so I don’t blame him for trying something.
The instruction book says Chris Paul is the alpha, omega, and everything in between for the New Orleans Hornets, but last night Dave West owned the most crucial moments of the team’s win over the Thunder. We reference shooting one’s face off here often, but D-West was the epitome on Monday. By the time he was done sticking daggers on OKC, eyeballs and noses were strewn everywhere like it was the prop room of “Nip/Tuck,” and the Hornets won their 9th in a row to take possession of third place in the Western Conference … Read More »

The majority of NBA players can dunk, but somehow few can throw it down like Will Bynum. As you probably already know, the six-foot Pistons guard is one of the most powerful and explosive dunkers in the League, and now he’s challenging you to throw it down for more than bragging rights.

It’s more than just Jordans. eBay’s strongest tie to basketball is not documented footwear, but an infinite inventory of NBA junk, official and otherwise, wearable or not. If it’s old and NBA, it’s worth watching. Keep checking back for the best in vintage NBA memorabilia around. This week, we have a game-worn Mark Price jersey and some Steve Nash kicks. Read More »
Around Christmas time, I was playing NCAA Football on PS3 against my boy from college. I was at his house, on his system, on his game … and I stomped him. At some point in the fourth quarter, frustrated and getting done in by the Legion of Hokies Doom, he yelled “F*** this!” and tossed his controller against a wall.
Crazy? Yeah. Awkward? Definitely. Scary? Almost. But hey, at least he left no doubt that he really cared about the outcome. If only Jay Cutler had heard this story, maybe he would have acted differently yesterday and wouldn’t be the national sports pariah of the moment. Read More »
As you may have heard, Nike Basketball has been working on a film project with Kobe Bryant titled, The Black Mamba. Not excited yet?

Slated to release Feb. 19 during NBA All-Star Weekend, check out the first official trailer below, and two exclusive behind-the-scenes photos from the set after the jump.
