JARRETT JACK
If you didn’t know any better, one may have thought that Jarrett Jack was referring to how he and his team would perform against the San Antonio Spurs on Friday night when he said “history” would be made. Of course, the backup point guard for the Golden State Warriors was actually referring to the new short-sleeved “jerseys” the team would don for the first time in the history of the NBA.  [Read more…]

SH Blog: Derrick Rose’s brother rips Bulls, Rockets remain interested in Howard

by

So the trade deadline came and went, which we covered extensively, without the much anticipated movement of players such as Josh Smith, Paul Pierce, Eric Bledsoe, Monte Monta Ellis and others. The biggest name to be traded as the clock moved to 3 p.m. was J.J. Redick, which Chris Sheridan talked about here. With teams trying to get under the luxury tax, we are now expected to deal with smaller moves and deals that have next to no immediate impact on the court,

What is this about, you might ask? It’s pretty simple: J.R. Smith decided to “go on the defense” about this particular screen shot of a direct message between him and a female fan, provided by Barry Petchesky of Deadspin: [Read more…]

Jeremy Lin
75 combined points from Jeremy Lin and James Harden against Kevin Durant and the Oklahoma City Thunder. 122-119 victory for the Houston Rockets. Something would be terribly wrong if the fans weren’t amped up from a performance of that magnitude, against opponents of that caliber, from two of their brightest stars. Check out one of Harden’s impressive buckets below: [Read more…]

by

The official NBA Trade Deadline is on Thursday, at 3:00 P.M., EST.  That means the clock is ticking for teams around the league, and rumors continue to circle around Josh Smith and company. In today’s blog, we’ll get straight to all the rumors, including the ones that appear to be shot down and ones that are still well in discussion.

Chris Webber
So, to fully understand this correctly: you can never lose a game if you outscore your opponents? Groundbreaking. In all seriousness, everyone has mental lapses from time to time, so lets give whoever provided the “stat” on twitter for the Nets PR Department a break on this one, and move onto something that was entirely more fun – Joe Johnson’s greatness when the game was on the line against the Milwaukee Bucks: [Read more…]

Jason Thompson
It’s a bit surprising that he still wasn’t aware, but we’ll help Jason Thompson with this one. The name of the “old white guy” is “Wes”, who is played by the currently injured Kevin Love. In case you haven’t seen the entire clip of “Uncle Drew Chapter 2”, here it is: [Read more…]

NBA players react to All-Star Slam Dunk Contest

The Slam Dunk contest mostly turned out to be a snooze fest of sorts. Saturday night actually kicked off with a promising reverse dunk off the side of the backboard from former champion Gerald Green, but took a dive from there, as the contestants repeatedly failed to convert their attempts on the first couple of tries. Green was surprisingly the biggest culprit, as the high-flyer ultimately failed to covert his double-dunk attempt in the allowed time. [Read more…]
