Rumors

Last week, we brought you the news stating that LeBron James was considering making a run at Union president. Typically, star players don’t take on this role. It’s typically someone who is towards the end of his career, as that job can be very demanding, especially during a lockout. It probably wasn’t that close to [...]

The Philadelphia 76ers and Doug Collins parts ways shortly after the season ended. Because so much time has elapsed since then, most actually forgot all about their head coaching search. Recently, all has been quiet on the Sixers coaching carousel front, until today. It was rumored on Friday, but it became official today: the Sixers [...]

Did New Jersey Nets rookie Mason Plumlee just leak the team’s plans to retire Jason Kidd’s jersey this season? Via The Basketball Jones from a transcription of a Bleacher Report interview with incoming NBA Rookies on how they will select their jersey numbers: “Mason Plumlee – I wanted 5, 5 is what I wore in [...]

It’s typical for guys to make adjustments part-way through their careers, but even this may be a bit extreme. Tristan Thompson from the Cavaliers is undergoing a change this offeason. He will change the hand in which he shoots with. That’s right, he will now shoot free throws and jumpshots with his right rather than [...]

Greg Oden will not be asked to score for the Heat. Coming in, his role is clearly defined. After three consecutive trips to the Finals, the Miami Heat roster works, even though it’s flawed. But Oden is supposed to rid the club of that flaw by adding size in the frontcourt. In his first comment [...]

When Brandon Jennings was traded to the Pistons, the logical assumption was that he’d be the starting PG. But hold on. That may not be the case necessarily. The Pistons have four PGs on their roster and one of them is named Chauncey Billups. Even though Chauncey is older, his game was never based on [...]

Knicks starting PG Raymond Felton is solid but is he the answer? He played well in spurts. Jason Kidd is no longer a part of the equation but Pablo Prigioni is back. Looking to add more depth at that position, the Knicks have signed veteran PG Beno Udrih. I’m sure all three will start at [...]

Michael Beasley finds himself in trouble once again. Once upon a time, people actually debated whether Beasley should’ve been drafted ahead of Derrick Rose in the draft a few years ago. A handful of teams and a few run-ins with the law later, that seems like a silly question. Michael Beasley has been arrested for [...]

Several years ago when the Cleveland Cavaliers acquired Mo Williams to be LeBron James’ running mate, he became a semi-household name and a pretty respected player. Mo is a solid NBA performer, but ever since LeBron left Cleveland, Mo has fallen off the map even though he’s just 30. I guess you can say that [...]
