NBA free agency 2015 was interesting, to say the least. From the DeAndre Jordan fiasco to the Lakers’ failed meetings with LaMarcus Aldridge, there was entertainment for NBA fans during the semi-dull offseason. There was no Kevin Durant in the free agent market, but there was still a fair amount of role players who could […]

Brooklyn Revival
At the beginning of the season, the Brooklyn Nets were picked by many experts to win the Atlantic Division, and ultimately challenge the defending champions, the Miami Heat, for the Eastern Conference crown. To say that things did not go as expected would be a massive understatement. At the end of the 2013 calendar year, […]
Can Phil Jackson Save the Knicks?
This past week, Phil Jackson became the new president of basketball operations for the New York Knickerbockers. This agreement called for approximately a $12 million annual salary; however, Jackson may not live in New York City full-time as he assumes this role. This is a hefty price for someone who might not be working in the […]
Should He Stay or Should He Go?
Carmelo Anthony is easily the greatest player to put on a Knicks uniform since Patrick Ewing. Last season, he led the Knicks to a 54-28 record and their first playoff series victory since 2001 (vs. the Toronto Raptors). He’s craved the bright lights and, individually, he’s lived up to the hype. Continuing with the trend, Anthony […]
NBA 2013-2014 Southwest Division Preview
Last season, the San Antonio Spurs were one Ray Allen step-back three pointer from another NBA Championship, but alas, we know how that ended. There is much speculation about the future of the big three—Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, and Manu Ginobli—and whether they have the legs for another championship run. As per usual, the Western […]
NBA 2013-2014 Northwest Division Preview
The Northwest division is likely to see the most change from last season. Every other division got better, while the teams in this division either stayed the same or shed themselves of multiple key components, as the Utah Jazz did with Al Jefferson and Paul Millsap. Despite the falloff, this division is still likely to […]
NBA 2013-2014 Southeast Division Preview
Other than the Miami Heat, this division is weak overall. The Atlanta Hawks lost talent. The Orlando Magic are very young and inexperienced —they will not be a strong team this year. In the future? Yes, possibly. But not now. The Washington Wizards have a lot to prove this year. This is John Wall’s year […]
NBA 2013-2014 Atlantic Division Preview
The 2013-2014 NBA season is riddled with headlines. From the Miami Heat’s pursuit of their third consecutive NBA title to the return of Derrick Rose to the battle between the Spurs, Thunder, Clippers, and more, the season promises to be one filled with a mix of old and new stars. Here is a preview of […]
NBA 2013-2014 Central Division Preview
The Central Division should be a great one to watch this year. This is basically a two-team race for the division crown. The first team is the revitalized Chicago Bulls, who have Derrick Rose back this year. The second is last year’s division champion, the Indiana Pacers, who came within one game of the NBA […]
NBA 2013-2014 Pacific Division Preview
The Pacific Division will definitely be one of the more interesting divisions to watch this upcoming season. There are many storylines to follow, including: When will Kobe come back? Will he be the same? What does Andre Iguodala do for the Warriors? How bad will the Suns be? How many guards will the Kings have […]
