Adam Silver only speaks the truth. Less than a year into his tenure as NBA commissioner, Silver has not held back. From wanting to impose a new draft age limit to banning super-sized shitbag Donald Sterling for good, he’s shot straight from the hip, never shying away from the big decisions or questions. Talking about [...]

Greg Monroe has apparently been doing anything and everything he can to escape the Detroit Pistons. Accepting Detroit’s qualifying offer—like he’s supposed to do—reeks of doubt and distrust and potential disgust. Rather than secure his financial future, he’ll likely play through next season at a ridiculous discount so he can explore unrestricted free agency in [...]

Ugh. Just when you think Rajon Rondo trade rumors are dead for the time being, they’re revived, but not really. Consider what follows to be a lesson in recycling. T-Spence, a sports radio host, tweeted this: [tweet https://twitter.com/tspence26/status/500931306599886848] It created some buzz, but not much.

Jim Boeheim’s latest verbal foray into Carmelo Anthony’s free-agency decision is going to make Phil Jackson blush.

But Anthony signed in New York, where he’s not going to [...]

There are (roughly) 7,045,999,999 in this world who can’t touch Derrick Rose in Coach Mike Krzyzewski’s eyes. The Team USA head coach has strong feelings for the Chicago Bulls point guard. Very strong feelings. So strong, players at Duke might want to start taking offense. Speaking on Rose’s progression and his personality, Coach K threw a [...]

In the NBA’s never-ending, superstar-encompassing game of tag, James Harden is apparently it. During an interview with ESPN.com’s Scoop Jackson, the Houston Rockets and Team USA super stud dished on his ongoing development. The question and answer session is a pretty fun, informative read, so hop to it you consumers of digital media (CoDs for [...]

Things just keep getting better and better for the Cleveland Cavaliers as it looks like veteran forward Shawn Marion will be another key piece added to their roster, according to ESPN.com’s Marc Stein. The four time all-star played with the Dallas Mavericks for the past four seasons and was a significant component of their championship [...]

August and the NBA don’t together. News is typically slow this time of year, leaving fans and scribes to look for topics of interest and note. When the Kevin Love rumors aren’t flowing and the San Antonio Spurs offense isn’t running like a well-oiled, time-tested machine, that’s a ridiculously hard task. Benny Kriefall of Minnesota [...]

Well this isn’t good. Eric Bledsoe and the Phoenix Suns’ dance around and toward each other continues. Or are they now dancing away from one another? Mini LeBron hasn’t spoken to the Suns for the last four months, according to owner Robert Sarver (via Paul Coro of The Arizona Republic): A Comcast SportsNet Northwest report [...]

He was really a point guard-hopeful trapped in the body of a forward, gifted with the offensive chops of an unabashed, inside-out, 20-plus-shots-per-night chucker.
