Rumors

The Brooklyn Nets have had a very up and down season, but will surely be right there in the mix come playoff time. Last night, they were rolled over by the Spurs in Brooklyn causing some doubt as to how seriously people should take the team. Deron Williams has been playing through the some pain [...]

The Bulls’ Joakim Noah has been out with plantar fasciitis and his return is still up in the air. But this weekend is the All-Star weekend and Noah was named to the squad. But do to his ailing foot, he may have to sit the game out which is something he understandably doesn’t want to [...]

Don’t look now, but the Indiana Pacers are just a mere 4.5 games out of first place in the East. They’ve managed to put together one of their best seasons in recent memory, while flying under the radar and doing so without Danny Granger. Imagine where they’d be with Granger. Looks like we won’t have [...]

If you were snubbed from the all-star game, would you still participate in the other contests if you were invited? It was rumored that Golden State’s Steph Curry would turn down the invite if asked to do the 3-point shootout. But apparently that isn’t the case as he will participate. This should be a good [...]

Performance enhancing drugs in sports is something that has been around for a while and doesn’t appear to be going away anytime soon. From cycling to football to baseball, we hear of new stories all the time. But for the most part, basketball has avoided the conversation. That’s primarily because you can make the argument [...]

According to a tweet from CBS Sports Pau Gasol is out at least six weeks with a partial tear of his plantar fascia in his foot. If the Lakers were planning to trade the big fella before the trade deadline, this can’t be good for negotiations. Unless of course being on the injured list is [...]

Over the past decade or so, the halftime performance for the NBA’s All-Star game has gradually become a bigger deal. The acts that have been booked have been major compared to the past. This year, Alicia Keys has been tabbed as the halftime entertainment. Keys has had a busy month, as she sang the National [...]

Last night, the Houston Rockets were on fire (video after the jump). Just about everything they threw up from behind the arc vs. the Golden State Warriors dropped. They tied an NBA-record with an amazing 23 3-pointers made, en route to a 140-109 win. Let’s see if they can do the same tonight vs. Miami. [...]
