Chance the Rapper stopped by the Staples Center on Wednesday to watch the Clippers play the Milwaukee Bucks, and he hung around after to hop on the court himself. In a video provided to TMZ, Chance made it clear he probably should stick with rapping. Chano missed 11 shots in a row in the clip, as […]
Twitter has a new most hated NBA team and it’s the Los Angeles Lakers.

It was determined that the Lakers are the most hated in 34 different states. Despite […]
The objective was simple for Los Angeles Clippers head coach Doc Rivers. With the Clippers getting dragged through the coals for sitting Kawhi Leonard for a second time in the team’s first eight games of the 2019-20 season, the NBA gave the organization a legitimate reason for keeping him out of action for a nationally televised game against […]
A Reddit user found a somewhat accurate way to predict what kind of game James Harden’s going to have (and it has nothing to do with which refs call travelling). User AngryCentrist found that Harden had a significant decline in performance in cities with a reputation for having top-tier strip clubs. A reddit user found […]
The building should’ve been buzzing before this one. With tons of media on hand for a nationally televised game between last season’s regular season MVP and NBA Finals MVP, Staples Center was supposed to be poppin’ for one of the season’s most eagerly anticipated matchups.

With LeBron James taking a backseat to Davis, who is fifth in the league in points per game with 28.5, the Lakers have started the 2019-20 campaign by putting together a Western Conference-best 5-1 record. It would preposterous […]
Lance Stephenson doesn’t know how to interpret Jimmy Butler‘s remark about him during his appearance on the Winging It With Vince Carter podcast. Butler, who was selected 30th overall in the 2011 Draft by the Chicago Bulls, revealed that he knew early on in his NBA career that there was an opportunity for him to get playing time after seeing who else in the […]
When Jimmy Butler signed with the Miami Heat this past summer a lot of people were probably confused. Not only because he vacated a roster that had Joel Embiid, Ben Simmons, and enough firepower to give the eventual champion Raptors their biggest test in the NBA Playoffs. But also because he didn’t link up with […]
The Clippers aren’t making it up as they go, even if it may seem like it at times. There is a strategy. Sorta. A day after Kawhi Leonard missed his first game of the season for load management reasons, the talk before he returned to the court against the Spurs Thursday at Staples Center in […]
