He’s prepared to do his due diligence and take his time. And his “due diligence” will include [...]

Speaking on Dallas’ offseason plans, Nowitzki endorsed the Mavericks [...]
Things are not looking up in the Big Apple. The New York Knicks dropped Game 4 to the Indiana Pacers, falling behind 3-1 in their best-of-seven series. Now facing elimination from the NBA playoffs in Game 5, the Knicks’ backs are up against the wall and most of the general populous is doubting they’re ability [...]
All may not be well in New York. Following the New York Knicks’ Game 3 loss to the Indiana Pacers, Tyson Chandler (of all people) was more than critical of the team’s offense. He took jabs at the Knicks lack of ball movement that everyone and their extended family interpreted as indirect shots at Carmelo [...]
