Rumors

Early season overreactions are commonplace. It’s easy to get too high or too low after just a few games into the season. Wizards coach Randy Wittman can attest to this. He was just fined by the league for an expletive-laden tirade following a recent loss to the Sixers. However, he seat is probably warm in [...]

If the Wizards had John Wall all of last season, who knows where they would’ve ended. Their record since  getting Wall back was good enough to make the playoffs, but of course it doesn’t work that way. The Wiz added some good pieces this offseason, but Nene was hurt last night to a calf injury. [...]

In sports, at one point or another, we’ve all had suspicions of teams tanking during a season in order to improve their draft positioning for the following year. We’ve just never heard of any one associated with that team admit it. Until now. An anonymous NBA GM has apparently admitted that his team may tank [...]

This is the type of stuff you want to hear in the league these days. In an age where everyone is friends with everyone else, seeing two teams that genuinely don’t like one another is refreshing and welcomed. That’s what we have with the Heat and the Bulls.

According to Kevin Durant, that answer is yes. KD says that last year he was too obsessed with winning. That’s only natural, since he got to [...]

Are the wheels beginning to fall off in Hollywood? First, Kobe’s devastating injury. Then, the Lakers are predicted to finish 12th in the West and Kobe was recently ranked the 25th best player in the league and no longer the best shooting guard. Now, reports surface that the Lakers will allow him to become a [...]

Andrew Wiggins hasn’t even played a college basketball game yet, but the hype surrounding him is off the charts. In fact, we haven’t seen this much hype from someone who is not even in the NBA yet since…LeBron James. And that’s where Wiggins has had enough apparently. Because of their freakish athleticism at such a [...]

Kenneth Faried is they type of player that every team needs. He does the little things and is very young. Because of those, his trade value is pretty high should the Nuggets want to move him.
