The New York Knicks are a hopeful bunch. Though Carmelo Anthony has thus far refused to expand his trade-destination wish list beyond the Houston Rockets—even, apparently, souring on the Cleveland Cavaliers—the Big Apple’s finest still believe he might relent. And if he does, the Oklahoma City Thunder, New Orleans Pelicans, Portland Trail Blazers and, yes, [...]

Even now, more than a month after the Detroit Pistons started the NBA’s free-agency period wheeling and dealing, their offseason feels weird, and unsettling, and potentially awful.

From the NOLA.com’s William Guillory: “I get asked all types of random stuff,” he said with smile. “The [...]

The Knicks had the No. 1 pick of the 2008 NBA Draft class last year in Derrick Rose, and now they have decided to sign the No. 2 pick of the 2008 draft Michael Beasley. Beasley is 28 now and has been a pretty huge disappointment in his NBA career thus far. After showing some [...]
