There are a bunch of big name players who are pending free agents. Most of them you realize, but Chris Bosh is also one that people have forgotten about. It will be interesting to see what happens with the Miami Heat in a year or so. According to ESPN, the Mavericks will have plenty of [...]

Now that he’s finally come to grips with reality and has retired, the Philadephia 76ers organization is doing the next logical thing in the equation: retiring Allen’s jersey. His #3 Philly jersey is iconic and is a big reason why you see so many guys wearing #3 today. The ceremony will take place next year [...]

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 [...]

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.

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. [...]
