For some time now, the Lakers have been flirting with an unserious loss. The second half of Sunday’s game against the Pelicans served as the perfect example of how the team was coasting by on its talent and not its effort. So, when the Suns — a team whose identity is playing hard — came […]
One year ago, there was a decent argument that LeBron James and Anthony Davis were the best duo in the NBA. Those conversations came with the caveat that both players be at full health and up to the challenge, but at their best, that pairing felt unstoppable on both ends of the floor. Fast forward […]

I could sit here and give you a normal recap of the Chicago Bulls ‘ tight loss to the Indiana Pacers. But does this team even deserve that? For the third consecutive game, the Bulls have lost to one of the NBA’s worst. They started things off by allowing a season-high to the two-win New Orleans Pelicans. Then, they struggled on the road against the four-win Charlotte Hornets. Now, with a matchup against the three-win Indiana Pacers, the Bulls blow a late lead and fall below .500 for the f...
The New Orleans Pelicans were on a nine-game losing streak and 2-15 to start the year. The Charlotte Hornets were on a seven-game losing streak and 4-14 to start the year.

While the Bulls were already eliminated from the NBA Cup heading into Friday’s game, the loss marked another unceremonious end for the franchise in the league’s annual tourna...
Living on the edge is fun and all … until a flock of Pelicans swoop in while you’re eating a sandwich, thus making you lose your balance and plummet into the depths of the earth’s core. It was only a matter of time for the Chicago Bulls. The team has been playing with fire over the last week-plus. Dating back to their double-OT loss to the Utah Jazz, this group hasn’t looked anything like the 6-1 team that shocked the NBA. They started the season punching teams in the mouth with their d...
