Old friend Kendrick Perkins made headlines last week for his underwhelming performance in the playoffs. Perk’s playoff impotence revived speculation that OKC would consider the amnesty provision on their center. Thunder GM Sam Presti says such speculation is inaccurate: “We just haven’t considered using the provision,” Presti said. “I wouldn’t necessarily directly attribute that to [...]

  Great win for the Celtics last night at TD Garden as they beat OKC 108-100. Of the games I’ve been to so far  this year, last night’s had easily the best atmosphere. The crowd was fired-up and it definitely had a playoff feel, even though it’s only November. Here are some great pics & [...]

Our favorite Western conference center – Kendrick Perkins – didn’t mince words (shocking, I know) when asked about the revamped Lakers: “We are the Western Conference champs,” Perkins said. “So at the end of the day, we’re not chasing nobody except for the ring.

The dude doesn’t udder a word in the ad, yet it’s flat out hilarious. Way to go, Perk. (h/t Jess Camerato) [...]

Old friend Kendrick Perkins is never afraid to speak his mind: All series long Thunder coach Scott Brooks has been taking flack for his handling of the Thunder rotations — sitting Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook at the same time, leaving guys with hot hands on the bench, not seeming to have a feel for his team. It’s not [...]

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big storyline. Because there’s nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump. “I feel like if he does return to basketball, I think that that would be the team,’’ Perkins said of the Celtics. “I heard Kevin say a [...]

The Oklahoma City Thunder and Miami Heat might be the toughest NBA Finals to call in quite some time.  They are alternately very similar and quite different.  They each boast a 1-2 punch that can be both explosive and inconsistent.  But, as usual, this will be a series that comes down to match-ups, and I [...]

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump. Q: One other thing going back to the history of the league and the history of it repeating itself, Kareem when he got Magic was invigorated.  That [...]

I know this seems like I'm dredging up an old story line.  And I guess I sort of am.  But I swear, I'm doing it for a good reason.  Because like everything else in life, proper perspective is needed before rushing to judgement.  It's been more than a year since "it" happened.  Last year, Danny [...]
