Granger-less Pacers Spank Knicks At MSG 106-93

For those who are Tyler Hansbrough fans, then you know what long and winding road he had to take to get to the NBA. As it were, league pundits had projected him to be a late-1st round pick in the 2009 draft, presumably because they had doubts about whether he could transition his college game [...]

Thunder Squashes Pacers 113-89, Durant Injured

The Indiana Pacers certainly didn’t get off on the good foot as they started their mini-Midwest swing through Oklahoma and Texas, starting at Oklahoma City Arena.

There is a good reason as to why Sacramento Kings guard Tyreke Evans was named the Western Conference Rookie of the Month; in 17 games, he has scored 20 or more points, so there you go – not bad for a rookie, wouldn’t you say?
