Rumors

July 6, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors It doesn’t seem that long ago that Elton Brand was one of the best power forwards, while playing for the Clippers. But he has undergone his share of injuries and the Sixers have decided to release him. I wonder if this is the end of the road? The [...]

July 6, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors For whatever reason, the Knicks have recently tended to be a punchline of sorts. They haven’t earned much respect around the league. But with the addition of the highly respected Jason Kidd, that may change. After failing on their attempts to work out a sign and trade to [...]

July 5, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors Here is Steve Nash’s statement to his fans regarding his decision to go to the Lakers. All class from Nash as usual… For the last 8 seasons I’ve been blessed to play for a team and a city that has embraced me and that I have come to [...]

July 5, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors The interesting thing about this story is that Jeremy Lin was once a Houston Rocket. In fact, it wasn’t that long ago. Now the team is attempting to break the bank to get him back. This makes perfect sense for the Rockets who just lost point man Goran [...]

July 5, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors When the Hornets drafted Duke’s Austin Rivers with the 10th pick last week, on the surface it made it seem as if Eric Gordon would become expendable since he plays the same position as Rivers and because Rivers will be less expensive.

July 3, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors Danny Ferry has barely been GM of the Atlanta Hawks for a few weeks and has already shaken up the franchise. Yesterday, not only did he shock the basketball world by trading Joe Johnson and his salary, but he also was able to move Marvin Williams. The Hawks [...]

July 3, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors With the core of the team returning, as well as their head coach, the OKC Thunder should be set up nicely to make many more runs in the future. Brooks’ agent, Warren LeGarie, told SI.com that the deal is agreed on for four years and approximately $4 million [...]

July 2, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors This doesn’t sound like your ordinary sprained ankle. It’s so bad that Davis will likely miss summer league and the London Olympics as well. Anthony Davis, the No. 1 overall draft pick of the New Orleans Hornets, suffered a severely sprained ankle in a workout Saturday and almost [...]

July 2, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors This isn’t that surprising. With Blake locked up long term, and with the addition of Lamar Odom (and they’re still looking to acquire pieces), the Clippers should be mentioned in the same sentence as the West’s best before long. And as expected, Griffin agreed to his five-year extension [...]
