Rumors

Kobe Bryant’s demise in the eyes of analysts continues to roll on. Last week, he was ranked the 25th best player in the NBA by ESPN, and today he was not voted the best SG by GMs for the first time in the last 12 years. General Managers believe James Harden is now the best [...]

Quietly, Zydrunas Ilguaskas was one of the more productive players in Cavs history. Because LeBron took over the team in 2003, we forget that Big Z played many years in Cleveland. Because of his size, he slowed down considerably as he got older and was barely able to see the floor due to injuries. The [...]

The Brooklyn Nets are poised to be one of the more exciting teams this year, but it will be tough to achieve that without their floor general Deron Williams. Williams has been out for a while with a bad ankle and there’s no timetable for his return. In fact, it’s so bad he’s not even [...]

You could argue performance enhancers don’t necessarily help basketball players because of the finesse required to play. But what about for injuries? PEDs are allegedly also used to increase recovery time for athletes. When he was going through his various injuries several years ago, Tracy McGrady considered turning to PEDs. He didn’t but it crossed [...]

I’m not sure a stranger story could’ve possibly surfaced. Bill Russell, the man for whom the NBA Finals MVP trophy is named after, was arrested earlier in the week for having a loaded gun on him in a Seattle airport. The gun is legal, but why was Russell walking around with this in the first [...]

If this doesn’t get you excited for the start of the NBA season, nothing will. LeBron James and Kevin Garnett have engaged in a war of word of sorts. The other day, LeBron James gave his opinion on the backlash Ray Allen received for leaving Boston, only to have Doc Rivers, Garnett and Paul Pierce [...]

Stop me if you’ve heard this before. Not to make light of the situation,  because it’s very unfortunate. Greg Oden had to skip Miami’s most recent practice because he was experiencing swelling in his knee. Maybe this is nothing, or maybe this is something. Who knows at this point. But this is why he’s only [...]

We’re just a mere weeks away from the start of the season, and everybody is still waiting to see what will happen with Kobe Bryant. Will he play? Will he not? It was just eight months ago when he tore his Achilles. According to Mike D’Antoni, Kobe will miss the opener. I think that makes [...]

Each year, ESPN ranks NBA players, from worst to first. And naturally, it causes much debate. Basketball is the sport that lends itself best to the “who is better?” debate. Today, they announced on twitter that Kobe Bryant is #25.  Last year, he was ranked 6th, and he took offense to that. So what will his [...]

Dwight Howards’s departure from Orlando almost makes LeBron’s look innocent. But more than a year later, why is Dwight still talking about his days in Orlando? He needs to just let that go and get on with his career. The sooner he stops talking about the Magic, the better it will be. After he left [...]
