  • Oklahoma City Thunder – Kevin Durant Shows Who’s the Best in the NBA

    Oklahoma City Thunder – Kevin Durant Shows Who’s the Best in the NBA

    Best player? No, not yet. Not until he takes the Oklahoma City Thunder all the way, possibly again vs the anointed and three time MVP winner, LeBron James. But the best team in the NBA? Probably, if you go by the records. Kevin Durant was too much for their biggest rivals in the West this season, playing without their number one player.

    Milwaukee Bucks – Brandon Jennings & Ersan Ilyasova Taking Over

    It looks like closing out games in the fourth quarters is turning into the Brandon Jennings job, while Monta Ellis takes a side seat to the younger and better guard in the duo, while Ersan Ilyasova is suddenly making up for all of his bad games earlier this season for the Milwaukee Bucks.

    Kyrie Irving Makes Celtics Looks Older Than Ever

    Stephen Curry Loves Torching the Clippers

    There’s somewhat of a pattern forming in the short-term rivalry between the Los Angeles Clippers and the Golden State Warriors, and one of the aspects in it is Stephen Curry going absolutely wild from everywhere on the floor when he faces the team with the best record in the division.

  • Brooklyn Nets – What Joe Johnson Is Paid to Do

    Brooklyn Nets – What Joe Johnson Is Paid to Do

    It’s hard living with the expectations of a huge salary when your ability can’t match the expensive contract. Once in a while, Joe Johnson shows he still has what it takes to be a prime time player, leading the Brooklyn Nets with some clutch shooting in the fourth to beat the New York Knicks.

  • Houston Rockets – Awful James Harden & Jeremy Lin Still Win

    Houston Rockets – Awful James Harden & Jeremy Lin Still Win

    After seven straight defeats, any win is a good one. James Harden didn’t really get out of his shooting funk, while Jeremy Lin had one of his weakest and most unproductive games of the season. It still didn’t stop the Houston Rockets from ending their slide, beating the Charlotte Bobcats.
