    Offseason Review: Indiana Pacers

    Indiana Pacers (45-37) *Photo via Indy Star All things considered, last year was quite successful for a “rebuilding” Indiana Pacers team. The Pacers were ousted in the first round of the playoffs as the 7th seeded team. Now, the Pacers have purposed themselves to become a threat in free agency and in the Eastern Conference by acquiring Jeff Teague and Thaddeus Young.

    An OKC Upset Story

    *Photo via Getty Images The Oklahoma City Thunder surprised in a Game 1 road victory to continue their playoff groove. Following three straight wins against the San Antonio Spurs, the Thunder remained stubborn in their strategy and continued their frontcourt dominance to extend their streak. While Oklahoma City relied heavily on their big men and athleticism against the Spurs, the latter is paralleled or even superior in a Golden State Warriors team. Will the Thunder continue

    How OKC Can Win This Series

    *Photo via Getty Images The Oklahoma City Thunder are two games away from advancing to the Western Conference Finals for the fourth time in six years. But guess what? So are the San Antonio Spurs. Game 1 of this series could all but be a wash as the Thunder’s dynamic duo went for a combined 30 points on 33% from the field. But, three games later, Kevin Durant put on a 41-point performance to put his team in position to take the series lead. No secret here, this is exactly wha

    The Not-So-Golden Path

    *Photo via Hyperbeast Without Stephen Curry, the Golden State Warriors remain the better team in their series with the Houston Rockets. Following Curry’s freak accident, which will keep him sidelined at least two weeks, the Warriors routed an uninspired Rockets team to put them within a game of clinching the series. The Warriors will do exactly that in their Wednesday night matchup in Oakland. There is no better nor easier way to state this, Golden State is a great team and H

    An Early Farewell to Memphis

    *Photo via sportspagenetwork.com After a dominating 106-74 win against the Memphis Grizzlies in Game 1 of their first round series, it’s hard to imagine anyway the San Antonio Spurs will lose this series, let alone lose one game. The Grizzlies have hobbled their way into the playoffs losing 10 of their last 11 games, a result of losing their two best players in Marc Gasol and Mike Conley to season ending injuries. By comparison, the Spurs were handed their first home loss in

    The Curious Case of the Clippers

    *Photo via Getty Images The curious case of the Clippers continues to riddle the NBA. Los Angeles has been beset with injuries, controversy, and rumors. Namely those associated with their franchise face, Blake Griffin. While Griffin continues to be sidelined by a quad injury, his actions off the court questioned the integrity and continuity of the Clippers’ locker room. His standing with the Clippers would also be questioned as they went on an immediate ten-game run and now f

    Why Kawhi Leonard Will Not Win MVP

    *Photo via USA Today Kawhi Leonard is having his best season of his young career. He has grown in leadership and influence, defensively, and statistically. Leonard has presumed the most important player role on one of the best teams in the NBA. When Leonard won the 2014 Finals MVP, this role was a forgone conclusion and it seems this destiny is finally taking shape. Now, Kawhi Leonard is quietly developed himself into an early MVP candidate. Much of San Antonio’s success thi

Stephen Curry has dazzled his way through the league leaving us all jawless.

    Spurs' Style – Flying Under the Radar

    *Photo via ESPN Go ahead, Steph Curry and the Warriors, the Houston Rockets, Kobe, and even Pozingis, go ahead and take those headlines because the Spurs don’t mind. Matter of fact, it’s what they’d prefer. Even further, the Spurs seem to treat the regular season as an 82 game preseason to prepare for the ‘real season’ or, as it's formally known, the postseason. Once again, the San Antonio Spurs have flown under the radar as one of the league's best teams, now undoubtedly the

Porzingis has done just that, and with every release of the ball on his new home court there’s a sudden gasp of “ah” as if every shot has the potential to be a game winner. Now, the young Latvian stud, whom uneducated Knicks fans were ready to boo away from Madison Square Garden before his first appeara

    *Photo via the Big Lead It’s fairy tale season 2.0 for the freshly donned Champions and surely no one is happier than Luke Walton. Despite missing their head coach, Steve Kerr’s young squad hasn’t skipped a beat. It looks like the Warriors are set to frolic their way through another breeze of season headed by the man in the ruby slippers: Stephen Curry. This is no gimmick; after defeating their playoff foe, Memphis Grizzlies by fifty points in their most recent joyride, the G

    Top Storylines: Pacific Division

    Golden State Warriors – Back to Back. *Photo via Getty Images The Warriors are already on the defense of their title in sparring Doc Rivers’ words that the team’s championship was “lucky”. Between Klay Thompson’s blunt “we smacked [the Clippers]” last year and Stephen Curry’s not-so-apologetic apology, it seems this team of young champions are ready to prove their not a one-ring-wonder. The entire Championship team is back with the exception of David Lee and little less spina

    ​What to Expect From the New and Improved Los Angeles Clippers

    I’m going to be blunt, strictly for the sense of this article and educational purposes; not so I can finally vent my bad blood towards the Los Angeles Clippers: I have never believed their hype. Ever since the acquisition of Doc Rivers (no slight to him) as head coach, many top basketball experts have considered the Clippers to be title contenders every year, but I never hopped on the bandwagon. A core including arguably the best point guard in the game (Chris Paul) and two o

Cherish the moment on opening night when you receive your championship rings but don’t let it blind you, mighty Warriors of Golden State. This year’s road to victory will be significantly more difficult as the wild Western Conference of the NBA will be even wilder this season.

    The Spurs Takeover

    *Photo via AP After a devastating NBA Finals loss at the hands of the Miami Heat (and, really, a loss of their own making) in 2013, it seemed an ageless group had reached its end. Though their crop of young talent, headlined by Kawhi Leonard, was just starting to spread its wings, surely the San Antonio Spurs core would shake the hand of father time and retire. The finals loss ate at them and instead the under-celebrated group returned for another shot at a ring. Surprisingly
