If you've been following the NBA for a while you'll know that Chicago Bulls point guard Nate Robinson likes his kicks, in fact, dude has one of the illest collections going around. If you don't believe us then just YouTube some of his videos, you'll see what we mean. So, when the Bulls visited Barclays Center last night to face the Nets we decided to catch up with Nate and have a chat to him about his kicks, why NBA players seem to be switching shoes at half-time more often, and also grabbed his thoughts on whether teammate Jimmy Butler would make a good addition to the All-Star game dunk contest.
Right after that we caught Taj Gibson - a Brooklyn native - on his way back to the Chicago locker room and got his thoughts... |

It was an unseasonably warmer-than-usual winter's day yesterday in New York City. Perhaps the Miami team had brought the 'Heat' literally from down south, or maybe it was the hot air that Reggie Evans had been blowing thoughout the day - doing his best to antagonise Miami's LeBron James.

The Brooklyn Nets came into Madison Square Garden and exacted some revenge for their poor showing in their previous encounter at the home of the Knicks. The season series ended at two-games a piece - with the exception of the third game, all games were close and came down to the final possessions - but the intensity of this budding rivalry has left fans wanting more of the match-up.

Copeland is averaging 6.4 points per game this season in limited minutes but the 28-year old is happy playing his role for the 23-11 Atlantic Division leading Knicks team. Watch the video below and stay tuned to Starting5online.com for a full... |

Many internationals have tried their luck, and eventually - for numerous reasons - they return back to their countries or continue playing their trade abroad.
