If you’re expecting the Miami Heat to pivot into a rebuild this season, keep dreaming. Any real reset starts with the team realizing it won’t have meaningful cap flexibility until 2020 at the earliest. From there, the Heat cannot be totally serious about rebuilding unless they move Goran Dragic. And according to ESPN.com’s Zach Lowe, [...]

The Houston Rockets don’t have to worry about soldiering on without James Harden for much longer. He’s nearing a return from his Grade 2 left hamstring strain. From ESPN 97.5 in Houston’s Kelly Iko: James Harden is nearing a return to the court and “should be back soon, anytime next week”, according to a member [...]

At least one member of the Los Angeles Clippers is hoping DeAndre Jordan doesn’t get trade this season or leave in free agency: Blake Griffin. As the All-Star forward told The Undefeated’s Marc J.

While the Knicks may not have the most depth on the wing, they have a logjam in the front court. Because of the emergence of Enes Kanter and now Michael Beasley (MVP! MVP!), the Knicks are struggling to find minutes for some of their talented big men: Willy Hernangomez and Kyle O’Quinn. After a breakout [...]

As previously mentioned, Blazers Owner Paul Allen is not happy with the level of success the Blazers are experiencing this season at 21-18 and wants more.

LaVar Ball doesn’t want Luke Walton coaching the Los Angeles Lakers. Whether his son, Lonzo Ball, feels the same is a matter up for debate. But LaVar made his thoughts clear this past weekend while speaking with ESPN.com’s Jeff Goodman. Plenty of people took exception to his comments, the prevailing theme of which centered on [...]
