If you’re looking for a new shoe to rock this summer, the Nike Air Max Flight ’11 might just be the one for you. With Flywire technology and Air Max cushioning, you have the best of both worlds. With that said, check out what Nike Basketball put together for Russell Westbrook this season. I kind of wish they released a whole Creamsicle set. Check ‘em out: Read More »

If you’re looking for a new shoe to rock this summer, the Nike Air Max Flight ’11 might just be the one for you. With Flywire technology and Air Max cushioning, you have the best of both worlds. With that said, check out what Nike Basketball put together for Tyreke Evans this season. It’s crazy to think that this colorway could be a throwback next year. Check ‘em out: Read More »

If you would have told me back in ’08 that an undersized four named Kris Humphries playing for the Raptors would be producing double-double numbers in 2011 while starting for an NBA franchise, I would’ve said you’re crazy. I guess I was hasty in my judgment. This year, “The Incredible Hump” sprouted from a cocoon to a butterfly seemingly overnight, posting averages of 10.0 points, 10.4 rebounds and 1.1 blocks per game, with a respectable PER of 17.91 (ahead of Rudy Gay and Danny Granger among others). Whether you attribute his improved play as being the product of playing in a contract year, a depleted Nets frontcourt that can’t rebound *cough* Brook Lopez *cough*, or the “hot and heavy” effect of being Kim Kardashian’s latest fling, Kris has emerged as a candidate for Most Improved Player and is one of the lone bright spots on a Nets team under renovation. We caught up with Kris to talk about the Nets’ move to Brooklyn, competing against Michael Phelps and scoring on his own net. Read More »

Beast of the Night: David Lee posted 29 points, 20 rebounds, two assists, two steals and a block last night. He shot 77 percent (13-17) from the field, 100 percent (3-3) from the foul line and had four turnovers. This was the kind of line many fantasy owners expected to see from Lee this season, but he fell short of expectations, thanks in part to Wilson Chandler’s tooth. In the past month, however, Lee has averaged top-12 numbers. He shouldn’t be forgotten on draft day next fall. Read More »

Oh boy. It’s about to get ugly. That was our first reaction. With this new idea beginning to float around that he’s not clutch, fumbling away the ball with the game on the line is perfect ammunition. When Gordon Hayward outplays you down the stretch, be ready for criticism. Even if you are Kobe Bryant … Read More »

Pau Gasol probably thought he was finally finished hearing it. But no, Amar’e Stoudemire came and brought the old flame back. And then Andrew Bynum had to start calling people out on Twitter. “He’s…he’s still soft,” STAT said about Gasol during an appearance this weekend with Hot 97’s Peter Rosenberg. Read More »

In January, we told you that “The LeBrons” were back. Today, we have an exclusive clip from the the first episode where Kid (Wesley Jonathan) is on his bike with his friend Condor (Jason Weaver), being chased by a pit bull (Andrew Kishino), before they ride past Athlete (Dempsey Pappion) shooting hoops in the driveway.

Get ‘em some Lucky Charms. At this point in the season, anything can help. Moving into the playoffs, the second season, question marks remain. Conjuring up memories from last season shouldn’t really count. It was boredom and injuries then that caused Boston’s mediocre finish to the regular season (27-27 after a fast start), not a makeover.

No Kendrick Perkins, an injured Nenad Krstic and a glass-fragile Shaquille O’Neal are forcing the Celtics’ hand. Read More »
