Adams: The death of the Big Three era in the NBA

Hayden Adams | Wednesday, October 9, 2019

Some say it began with the Boston Celtics in 2008. Others say with the Miami Heat in 2012. You could even make an argument for the San Antonio Spurs in 2007, or the Chicago Bulls in 1996 if you want to get frisky. In any case, the “Big Three” era of the NBA seems to

Hayden Adams | Friday, September 27, 2019

In the sport of basketball, there are numerous legends, and many of them had an iconic, go-to move that only added to their fame. Michael Jordan had his cradle dunk, Kobe Bryant had his fadeaway and Allen Iverson had his crossover. However, there are only a select few moves ever deployed in basketball that have

Masin-Moyer: Previewing 2019 NBA title race

Lucas Masin-Moyer | Wednesday, April 10, 2019

Though there are still a few games left in the NBA season, and a few teams and seedings left to be determined for the playoffs, the teams that are most likely to be crowned champions this year have already locked down their places in the playoffs. So, with that in mind, I’ll be looking at

Adams: The rightful NBA regular season award winners

Hayden Adams | Tuesday, April 9, 2019

As the NBA regular season comes to a conclusion, I feel that now is a good time to reflect on this season and name who I believe deserves this year’s major awards. Without further ado, here we go. Defensive Player of the Year — Paul George, Oklahoma City Thunder Paul George is, in my opinion,

Masin-Moyer: George, Embiid shouldn’t be overlooked in MVP race

Lucas Masin-Moyer | Tuesday, February 19, 2019

This past weekend, the NBA’s brightest stars were on full display at All-Star weekend in Charlotte, North Carolina. The All-Star Game itself displayed its trademark lack of any semblance of defense, and Oklahoma City guard Hamidou Diallo stole the show with his Vince Carter-inspired dunk over Shaquille O’Neal in the dunk contest. All in all,

Padanilam: Westbrook is clear choice for MVP

Benjamin Padanilam | Wednesday, March 22, 2017

As the NBA’s regular season winds to a close, its MVP conversation has started to heat up. There are several worthy candidates for this season’s honor, so there is no need to fear or expect a repeat of last year’s unanimous outcome. James Harden, Kawhi Leonard, LeBron James, Isaiah Thomas and Kevin Durant would all

Stempak: NBA MVP race heats up

R.J. Stempak | Tuesday, March 7, 2017

Sadly, we are coming to the final months of the NBA season. The playoffs are nearly set in the West, all spots nearly secured except the eighth seed. Kevin Durant’s injury complicates the Warriors’ smooth ride to the first seed with Kawhi Leonard’s Spurs storming in close behind them. Other than that, the Thunder pretty

Stempak: Westbrook, Green ripping through NBA

R.J. Stempak | Tuesday, December 6, 2016

Two players are beating up the NBA this year. But before I talk about them, I have a quick note on the one player connecting these two maniacs of pedal destruction: Kevin Durant. Durant is quietly putting up career highs in field goal percentage, three-point percentage, rebounds, steals and blocks, to go alongside career lows in turnovers

Best (wurst) ‘beefs’ of recent history

Miko Malabute | Tuesday, August 25, 2015

“What’s beef?” East coast rapping legend Biggie Smalls, a.k.a. The Notorious B.I.G., once posed in 1997. Almost 20 years later, we have (un)fortunately seen it all: rappers beefin’ with rappers, rappers with R&B singers, R&B singers with athletes and — just to bring things full circle — athletes with rappers. Let’s face it, as uncomfortable
