Though he's still an incredible mid-range shooter in the game, his other stats have diminished since his 2K9 peak. There are a number of reasons for that decline, and players often see their stats decrease as they age, but the biggest one is his new franch

The Warriors rested Klay Thompson and the Jazz were without All-Star Gordon Hayward due to a quad contusion in this matchup. Rudy Gobert (17/18/0) and company stole the win on the road from Steph Curry (28/4/4) and his crew. Interestingly, the Jazz made 13 three-pointers compared to Golden State’s n

With all of the ridiculous numbers being put up by players like Russell Westbrook, James Harden, Isaiah Thomas and the entire Golden State Warriors these days, it's easy to lose sight of the most ridiculous stat going in the lea

LeBron is set to make a run at a fourth NBA title as the Cleveland Cavaliers head into the playoffs. Strangely enough, despite the Cavaliers staying intact, they're going into the postseason as the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Confere

The last NBA finals game played without LeBron in the lineup was on June 17, 2010 when Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers topped Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen and Rasheed Wallace (!!) and the Boston Celt

The 2011-2012 season was a strange one, though, with the NBA having a shortened regular season following a nasty lockout. Players and league executives engaged in a bitter standoff that cut the NBA season down by 16 games and condensed the schedule sever

With Russell Westbrook and James Harden battling it out for one of the most hotly contested MVP duels in recent years, it will be a shame to see one of these players miss out on the award after both enjoying incredible seas

While the trade on the surface looks lopsided (and you can make the argument that Sacramento could have gotten much more in return), you have to understand that other than receiving two draft picks, the Kings got back some interesting play

Westbrook and Harden have broken records this year and it's possible that they may never have better individual campaigns for the rest of their careers, so this could be their best shot at hoisting the MVP tro

Well, Prokhorov gave away a whole bunch of future assets to be decent for a few years, Derrick Favors was shipped to Utah before his rookie season ended, and now the Nets are going nowhere for the foreseeable fut

Despite a 12-70 season for the New Jersey Nets, there was reason to believe good things were on the way. Prokhorov wanted stars to help facilitate a move to Brooklyn that was still two years away, and despite the lottery balls not falling in their favor to land John Wall, the Nets still had the third pick in the dr

Clearly, while he was with the Nuggets, Melo was one of the game's elite all-around offensive players (though his defensive stats definitely left a lot to be desired). But, once he forced his way to the Knicks, the steady decline be

Galloway, who has been a reserve for the Pelicans this season after playing the two previous seasons on the New York Knicks, has put up 8.6 points through 20.4 minutes per contest in 55 games this year. He’s also 25-years-old and has shown a great deal of promise when he has started games and has seen increased court t

Like Kidd, Hall of Famer Thomas is firmly in the conversation when discussing the best point guards in history, he was a magician with the ball in his hands. However, unlike Kidd, Thomas at least had some rings to show for

During his rookie season with the Kings in 2009-2010, he put up 20.1 points, 5.3 rebounds and 5.8 assists per game through 37.2 minutes. While he might not be the same player today, the 27-year-old can still be a legitimate and versatile starter when heal

Coming off of a game in which they blew a 26-point lead in the fourth quarter last night, the Cavaliers blew an 11-point lead in the fourth in this game and eventually lost in overtime. Playing without LeBron James and Kyrie Irving, Cleveland couldn’t get the job done down the stretch, despite an amazing game by Deron Williams (35/7/9). Hassan Whiteside (23/18/1) double-doubled in the must-win game for Mi

The Spurs were back with payback in their minds after losing to the Heat in a seven-game series the previous postseason. San Antonio jumped all over the Heat, thrashing them in a 4-1 series that was never really close. The Spurs won by double-digits in each of their four victor

They went on to face the Oklahoma City Thunder in the Nba Skills|Https://Nbaactioninsight.Com/ Finals and absolutely thrashed them in a 4-1 beat down. LeBron captured his first of three NBA titles, and on top of eliminating the Thunder, they effectively ended the James Harden era in Oklahoma C

West finished second in the MVP voting four different times, losing out to Wilt Chamberlain in 1966, Willis Reed in '70, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in '71 and again in '72. In the '65 ballot, West finished third, behind only Bill Russell and Oscar Robertson. It's certainly no shame losing out to those na
