Rumors

Nikola Mirotic doesn’t seem like he’ll be a member of the Chicago Bulls much longer. ESPN.com’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported earlier this week that two sides are still fixing for a divorce, and that the 26-year-old forward held the Utah Jazz in special regard. Well, the Jazz apparently feel the same way. They’ve spoken to the [...]

Isaiah Thomas wants to get paid this summer when he enters free agency. He’s been thinking about this next contract for a while—almost, it seems, since he signed his last one, a four-year, $27 million deal with the Phoenix Suns in 2014. Unfortunately for him, though, it doesn’t look like he’ll be needing a Brinks [...]

The Detroit Pistons are heavily invested in winning now. That much is certain following the latest rumor dump from ESPN.com’s Adrian Wojnarowski.

It has taken some time for the Thunder to effectively integrate their two star additions from the 2017 off-season: Carmelo Anthony and Paul George. While both are set to be free agents in the [...]

By the time Feb. 8 rolls around, don’t be surprised if the New York Knicks have moved Willy Hernangomez to another team. He’s drawing that much interest on the trade market, according to the New York Post‘s Marc Berman: With the Knicks exploring what to do with their four-center glut by the Feb. 8 trading deadline, [...]

As the Los Angeles Clippers continue to sneak back into the Western Conference’s playoff picture, the DeAndre Jordan trade rumors are dwindling in number and persistence. But that doesn’t mean they’re entirely gone. On the contrary, teams continue to monitor Jordan’s situation in Hollywood. And the Cleveland Cavaliers are one of them. But, according to [...]

Nikola Mirotic is ruining the Chicago Bulls’ tank job, and they appear to know it. Since making his debut after suffering facial fractures and a concussion during a dustup with teammate Bobby Portis, the 26-year-old forward is averaging 17.2 points and 7.6 rebounds on 50.4 percent shooting, including a 47.5 percent clip from downtown. The [...]

Gregg Popovich always keeps it 100, as the kids say (do they still say that?). He also has no problem speaking his mind about an issue with his team, the NBA in general, or even society and politics. He is a very intelligent human being and an all-time great coach. He can be a very [...]
