Rumors

Derrick Rose’s injury casts doubt in to the future of the organization. With a completely healthy unit, they were still probably a piece away. Without Rose, they are just another team. There are now alot of questions that management needs to answer regarding the direction of the organization. Joakim Noah isn’t optimistic of the future [...]

The Washington Wizards quietly have a nice young team, but you’d never know it. Injuries have prevented them from reaching their full potential. If last season began when John Wall returned from injury (which, of course it didn’t), they would’ve been a playoff team. This year, they’ve had to deal with injuries from Nene and [...]

After just a few seasons in Minnesota, the former #2 overall pick, Derrick Williams, appears to be on the move. Williams may be headed to Sacramento for Luc Richard Mbah a Moute. Williams has plenty of potential and the Kings are assembling a nice young nucleus. But it’s always interesting when a team gives up on [...]

Kobe may be coming off major surgery and is 35 years old, but that doesn’t mean the Lakers still don’t want him. If nothing else, he’s a box office draw. We saw evidence of this a few weeks ago with the Lakers home sellout record of 200+ games was recently snapped. The Lakers have decided [...]

Heading into the Portland Trailblazers’ early season tilt with the Golden State Warriors, Rip City was riding high, and surging to the top of the Western Conference standings behind a 9 game win streak. Once the final whistle sounded, the Blazers’ streak had reached an even 10 games, following a hard fought 113-101 victory, but [...]

Derrick Rose is opting for season-ending surgery to repair the meniscus he tore in his knee on Friday night in Portland. Frankly, that’s the only option. Rehabbing it without surgery would probably be a huge mistake. That means the earliest we will see him is the beginning of next year, but don’t hold your breath. [...]

Out of frustration the other night, Dwight Howard tossed the ball at a heckling fan as the Rockets were in Dallas. It was a soft lob and nothing malicious. Even so, who does that? But I’ll give Dwight a pass, because fans have the green light to be mean-spirited at games, but if the athlete [...]

We are only 11 games into the season, but after a 3-8 start, we are in full panic-mode regarding the Knicks. The team has been stung by the injury bug already and the defense has left a lot to be desired. And because Mike Woodson is a defensive-minded coach, that’s not good news for him. [...]

Not only does Dwight Howard have a bunch of critics to silence in Houston, but he also has to impress Hakeem Olajuwon who is mentoring him. Hakeem arguably had the best footwork of any big man in the post, and no one ever accused Dwight of being a polished back-to-the-basket player. That spells trouble. Apparently, [...]

The downside about being a famous athlete is that your life plays out for everyone to see. Dwyane Wade went through a pretty public divorce a few years ago and it’s unfortunate because there are two children involved. But apparently, Wade isn’t shying away from his personal life. In fact, he wants to make it [...]
