After an illustrious career, it felt like an inevitability before Chris Paul won a championship. However, through a 19-year career, an NBA ring is the one prize alluding to the Point God. But, it finally looks like he’s okay with it. A season after going to the Golden State Warriors to take them back to the promised land, his priorities are different. Paul was his usual efficient self in a bench role in The Bay. However, the same winning did not follow as it usually does. Prior to his stint in San Francisco, Chris was responsible for an uptick in winning for each of the teams he came to. And ..read more

The Klay Thompson career arc has been an interesting one. As a former lottery pick, expectations were high for what he could achieve in the NBA. However, even the wildest supporters couldn’t have imagined the success that Thompson would have in the league. A four-time NBA champion, and second-best player in the greatest dynasty of the modern era, Klay is a certified Hall of Famer. However, there is still a sense of drive for the ‘new’ Klay Thompson.

The New York Knicks have turned into one of the best teams in the NBA under head coach Tom Thibodeau. He has not done it alone, as he has been in lockstep with the front office since arriving ahead of the 2020-21 season. Since taking over the job from Mike Miller, who was interim head coach after David Fizdale was fired, Tom Thibodeau has led the New York Knicks to a lot of success. They have made the postseason in three out of four seasons. They have made the playoffs in two straight seasons, the first time since 2010-2012 they qualified in consecutive years. He has brought some much-needed ..read more

A few old wounds are yet to seal as a new dawn arrives in the Los Angeles Clippers franchise. Since 2019, the Clippers have had the outlook of perennial NBA contenders without any real success to show for it. With three total playoff series under their cap, the Paul George trade to acquire both PG and Kawhi Leonard has been a disappointment. However, the team isn’t ready to turn back just yet. Since that infamous trade, they have doubled down on building a contender. As a result, their future assets are essentially nonexistent, with two former MVPs James Harden and Russell Westbrook joining t ..read more

The Bronny James discussion. Due to his last name, the microscope was always going to be intense on Bronny. However, just how deep it would get was something no one could have seen coming. Since talk of him joining the USC Trojans, the spotlight has been squarely on the young man. And with each step forward, that spotlight seems to get brighter, especially since being drafted by the Los Angeles Lakers. Talk of his depleted stats post-cardiac arrest was the talk of the town. Then, when rumors of his placement as a late second-round pick came to the forefront, the same conversations became comm ..read more

The Los Angeles Lakers have had an eerily quiet NBA offseason. Apart from their core returning from last season and re-signing LeBron James, the team has made no moves. Instead, the only real additions to the squad came in the form of rookies Dalton Knecht and Bronny James. After a disappointing season, the lack of movement was a serious red flag for fans of the team. Given the number of players rumored to be of the Lakers’ interest, them striking out on every deal was a shocker. Whether it be free agents like DeMar DeRozan, Klay Thompson, or Jonas Valanciunas, no name came to LA. As a result ..read more

Man, the Dallas Mavericks are having one hell of an offseason. While not going after any premium, superstar names, Dallas has been quietly building out their roster.

The Cleveland Cavaliers have been hard at work securing their roster. After their first NBA playoff series victory this century without LeBron James, the team has to be in high spirits. Furthermore, rumors of a Donovan Mitchell departure have been put to rest thanks to a three-year, $150.3 million extension. The team has a ways to go to emerge as a true contender, but in back-to-back years, they have been the 3rd seed in the East. In Darius Garland and Donovan Mitchell, they have two elite creators. Additionally, with a strong frontcourt to boot, their defense remains top-notch. The only ques ..read more

The Los Angeles Lakers have had a quiet NBA offseason. Apart from most of their 2023-24 roster picking up their player options, the team is relatively stagnant. Instead, the big change for them has come in the form of a head coaching replacement. After less-than-ideal results under head coach Darvin Ham, the team is instead pivoting to another first-time coach. After over a decade in the NBA as a sharpshooting specialist, JJ Redick will take over head coaching responsibilities for the purple and gold. As a first-time head coach, he could face immense pressure. But the front office has done a ..read more

The Milwaukee Bucks are in a weird position as the year begins. After their 2021 NBA championship run, the team has been stagnant. Multiple playoff exits without a Conference Finals appearance have people raising eyebrows. However, injuries have been a big part of their lack of success. Since then, either Khris Middleton or Giannis Antetokounmpo has been out of the lineup for each playoff game. As a result, there has been optimism each season about their potential ceiling. But with the latest Middleton update, that optimism might pause the Bucks. The Khris Middleton injury ..read more
