In a few years, LeBron James Jr. is going to have all the eyes in the world on him as he makes the transition from High School basketball to college. Today, the 17-year-old baller is just a High Schooler enjoying the last bits of his childhood. On Instagram, Bronny went...

The story of LeBron James' rise is more than enough for anyone to get motivated in their life. Growing up poor to becoming one of the richest athletes in the world is certainly something that not many can achieve. Evidently, LeBron is considered one of the greatest players to grace...

Shaquille O'Neal and Charles Barkley are arguably the most fun duo on the air when it comes to NBA media. The two are constantly going at one another on Inside The NBA, and one of their main topics of argument always boils down to Barkley trying to discredit Shaq a little and O'Neal responding by bringing up how many rings he has compared to Chuck.

While they only played in the NBA together for 3 years, LeBron James and Kyrie Irving were a formidable duo. Kyrie's growth into a superstar was one of the biggest reasons LeBron James returned to the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2014. And the duo went to the NBA Finals all three...

The NBA fanbase loves only two things they love as much as basketball, trash-talking and memes. Jokes at the expense of players that underperform, especially stars, are all over social media platforms, with fans getting into heated arguments in the comments over some truly ridiculous jokes. And certain players are often targeted a lot more than others. Chris Paul is the latest example of a big NBA star receiving a lot of slander for their performances.

When Magic Johnson announced he had HIV, the NBA world didn't know how to react. His colleagues had a hard time trying to figure out what to do or what Magic should do with his career. He received a lot of criticism, mostly due to the misinformation about the disease, which led Magic to retire from the game for the first time.

Luka Doncic has been elite almost since the moment he stepped foot into the NBA, claiming Rookie of the Year before going on to make the All-NBA First Team in just his second season. The Mavericks star has been in the MVP conversation every season since his sophomore year and seems to have taken another leap this season, carrying the Dallas Mavericks to the Western Conference Finals.

Kyrie Irving and LeBron James started their relationship the best way in Cleveland. The King took the young point guard under his wing, trying to teach him one thing or two about winning in the NBA. They made it to three consecutive NBA Finals from 2015 through 2017, winning one championship in 2016.

The relationship between Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen is pretty much dead at this point, following a series of controversial statements made by the latter regarding his time with the Chicago Bulls and what it meant to be a Michael Jordan teammate during those magical runs in the 90s. Pippen...

The NBA media can be quite reactionary at times, and they tend to remember players' lower moments perhaps longer than they should. This gets held against those players until they perform at an elite level again and then they become subject to praise once more. This is perhaps most evident when it comes to Jimmy Butler, who after being maligned a fair bit after the 2021 playoffs is now earning comparisons to Michael Jordan.

Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen are considered by many to be the greatest duo in NBA history. Jordan and Pippen were able to win 6 NBA championships together, something that might never be matched by any other duo in history. Playing Jordan and Pippen in a 2 vs. 2 during...

The Dallas Mavericks play their first Western Conference Finals in over a decade tonight as they face the Golden State Warriors after a triumphant upset series win over the league-leading Phoenix Suns.

Things got a little heated during Wednesday's Western Conference Finals pre-game show. Two of the internet's most treasured broadcasters (ex-basketball stars Shaquille O'Neal and Charles Barkley) got into a pretty heated debate live on the air. The argument was all about Jimmy Butler and whether or not it would be...

Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley entered the NBA together in 1984, as part of the legendary 1984 NBA Draft class that also included Hakeem Olajuwon. Both players went on to establish themselves as superstars in the NBA. Barkley and Jordan became friends during their time in the NBA and even...

Larry Bird and Magic Johnson are arguably two of the most important figures in basketball. Bird and Magic revolutionized the NBA when they were drafted in 1978 and 1979 respectively. Over the course of their careers, the pair would win 8 titles and 6 league MVPs for two of the most historic teams in the league's history.

Deandre Ayton isn't having the best time currently. His future is in serious doubt after Phoenix refused to give him the max extension. Ayton will be a restricted free agent this offseason and there is the added wrinkle of his reportedly heated exchange with Monty Williams during the embarrassing blowout loss against the Dallas Mavericks in Game 7 in which he was benched for almost the entirety of the second half.

There have been many great players over the NBA's 75-year history. From Wilt Chamberlain to Stephen Curry, the league has rarely been without a top-tier, generational talent. In a recent chat with other prominent voices in the basketball world, Charles Barkley spoke about some of the legends that have impacted him the most and revealed his "Mount Rushmore" of greats:

The Western Conference Finals is set as the Golden State Warriors and the Dallas Mavericks are set to go to battle after the Mavericks shockingly blew out the reigning Finalists, Phoenix Suns, in one of the most shocking Game 7’s in NBA history. Dallas certainly looked like a force in the West during the playoffs, as they took care of business against two very solid teams in the Utah Jazz and the Phoenix Suns. In many ways, nobody truly thought the Mavericks would have had a shot in the dark against either the Jazz or the Suns.
