need help at the backup point guard spot. With no solid backup option behind All-Star Kyrie Irving, he has had to log a lot of minutes. Right now, he is averaging 35.2 minutes per game. The Cavaliers know that if they want to make it back to the NBA Finals and defeat the Golden State Warriors, they need another option behind Irving. On Saturday, Marc Stein of ESPN reported that the Cavs could target either Utah Jazz point guard Shelvin Mack or Denver Nuggets point guard Jameer Nelson. However,…

Team Loyalty vs A Championship Winning Career: The New Challenge for NBA Players Should I stay or should I go? That’s the question every Hall of Fame worthy star asks himself at some point in his career in the league. Now to be fair,the answer depends largely on the team you were drafted to and the overall potential to win a championship.

upcoming regular season? 2. San Antonio Spurs - Swap Tim Duncan for Pau Gasol and what do you get? Basically the same Spurs team as last year: still old, but still good. 3. Utah Jazz - The new kids on the block. The up-and-comers. The millennials of the NBA. The Jazz have been bad for a while, but that should stop now. 4. Portland Trail Blazers - Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum are the forgotten Splash Brothers. If the duo keeps shooting they way they have, Portland should keep making the…

I have started following basketball for about seven years now. I have watched as a fan and as a way to learn the game. In my opinion, the two best ways to watch the game is by watching the NBA or the NCAA. The NBA or National Basketball Association, is a league of professional club basketball teams that all compete in North America with only 30 teams. It is considered to be the best of the best when it comes to the sport. The NCAA or National Collegiate Athletic Association, is a collegiate…

From NBA superstars like Lebron James to NFL superstars like Peyton Manning, they are idolized by many. People pay lots of money to watch them and spend lots of their time watching them as well. The question is -- are they paid and idolized too much? The answer is no, they are not. They are important to American culture, they worked extremely hard to get where they are, and they…

according to Vegas odds they are expected to be the second best team in the East with fifty-one wins. A lot of commentators of the NBA would have you believe that they are in an enviable position with their stockpile of draft picks and young players. The signing of Al Horford seems to be a turning point in the rebuilding of the Celtics by acquiring the four time NBA all-star they finally added some legitimacy to their title hopes. But there are still a lot of questions for the Celtics throughout…

the time when Rondo is not in the game. For fantasy basketball owners, it’s going to be worth watching how Rondo and Holiday function together. This would not be the first time Gentry has deployed Holiday this fashion. Tim Frazier started 12 of the final 13 games last season in the same backcourt, and Holiday scored at least 17 points six times with two double-doubles. In his other 55 games last year, Holiday reached that point total 19 times with 13 double-doubles. Holiday’s minutes shifted…

The first day I met with Stephanie I mainly asked questions I never received an answer to my first semester as a Communications Arts major. I switched into Comm halfway through my first semester as an architecture student because I worried I would be stuck with the same architecture job my whole life. I told her things like that really concern me and she confirmed what my friend from high school told me when I decided I wanted to switch. They both explained how Comm had multiple options from…
