Rumors

The OKC Thunder are coasting through the regular season, business as usual. Obviously, they’re still one of the best teams in the league, but they are a young team. Perhaps their inexperience showed during the Finals last year. Veteran leadership is very valuable come playoff time. Maybe that’s why they are apparently bringing back Derek [...]

Kobe Bryant and the Lakers have been the subject of more than their fair share of NBA conversation this season. But I never thought I’d see the day where someone would suggest the Lakers should simply waive Kobe Bryant under the amnesty clause, with nothing in return, to improve the team’s long term future . [...]

The Knicks traded Ronnie Brewer for a future second round pick. Brewer was supposed to be a key player for the Knicks this year, but if never really worked out. But now with Brewer gone, that left a roster spot open for the Knicks. That was filled by free agent veteran Kenyon Martin, who signed [...]

Despite playing the entire season without their leader Derrick Rose, the Bulls have played very well. But Derrick Rose’s brother isn’t impressed with the roster. Rose’s brother Reggie (who is also his manager) wanted the team to add some pieces in order to make the team better. He also implied that their trade deadline inactivity [...]

The Lakers stumbled out of the gate and have had a mediocre record ever since. They are currently 3 games under .500 and are in 9th place in the Western Conference. It isn’t impossible for them to make the playoffs, but they can ill afford any losing streaks from here on out. But if nothing [...]

The Milwauke Bucks were rumored to be the most likely landing spot for Josh Smith, if Atlanta moved him. Well, Atlanta didn’t move him. But Milwaukee did bolster their roster by adding sharpshooting J.J. Redick to spread the floor for Jennings and Ellis. The Orlando Magic were in the process of finalizing two separate trades [...]

In sports, there’s nothing better than having a great game against the team that traded you away. Last night, the Rockets played host to the OKC Thunder and James Harden lost his mind. He finished with a career high and overshadowed Kevin Durant’s second career triple double. James Harden scored a career-high 46 points and [...]

Thomas Robinson was high a top almost all of the NBA Mock Draft boards last year. So its not a surprise that Rockets fans are jumping out of their seats with joy tonight as word spreads that the Rockets have acquired Robinson in a three team deal before the deadline. The Houston Rockets have reached [...]

It’s bad enough that most fans and certain members of the media have blamed the Lakers’ struggles on Mike D’Antoni’s style of offense. But the fact that Phil Jackson has just done it is a terrible situation for D’Antoni. Phil recently came out and said Mike is misusing his two key big men. The funny [...]

Several years ago, Kobe Bryant was very vocal about his displeasure with the Los Angeles Lakers, and that he wanted out. I can very vividly recall a radio interview he gave to Stephen A. Smith where he stated that he wanted to be traded. He eventually kissed, and made up with the front office. But [...]
