Roy Hibbert
Tweet of the Night goes to Roy Hibbert, who shared a video of what he learned in his Mixed Martial Arts training session on Thursday. Clearly, he is a center you do not want to mess with. Hibbert improved his game all around last season, though it may be hard to tell by looking at just the statistics alone. With the acquisition of David West, the improved game of Paul George and leading scorer Danny Granger on the team, opportunities

Heisler: L.A. Story: Meet the new boss, same as the old boss

by

Having trumped up, er, written more intracity rivalry stories than I care to remember, there are three things I know. 1. They’re really no big deal. So what if the Clippers don’t like the Lakers, who don’t deign to notice the Clippers? The Clips don’t dislike the Lakes any more than the Suns or Warriors do, to say nothing of the Celtics. This isn’t high school. It’s not even USC-UCLA. This is the NBA, where only the Clips would remember if they swept the Lakers,

Amar'e Stoudemire
Tweet of the Night goes to Amare Stoudemire, who shared part two of his training video with Hakeem Olajuwon. You can find part one here if you missed it. Stoudemire recently discussed how excited he was to work with one of the greatest of all time, and will look to utilize some of the moves he has learned from Olajuwon once the season begins.
