Rumors

The Milwauke Bucks probably have the best backcourt that nobody talks about. Brandon Jennings and Monta Ellis could really prove to be a special duo. But because Milwauke isn’t a huge market, they don’t get the recognition they deserve. This is also part of the reason why we’ve heard Jennings in the past reference that [...]

As it turns out, Leandro Barbosa’s knee injury from last night is much more severe than anticipated. He is also done for the season with a torn ACL. How many torn ACL’s can one team endure in their backcourt. Also, what’s with the increasing number of ACL injuries in sports these days? But despite this [...]

Derrick Rose and Iman Shumpert both tore their ACLs on the same day last year. Shumpert has been back for a few weeks, but no sign of Rose yet. Granted, everyone’s body heals differently, but you got the sense Rose’s return was near. But he shot down any hope of that. He’s being very cautious [...]

Many thought that the Boston Celtics were dead in the water when Rajon Rondo went down with an ACL tear a few weeks back. But much to everyone’s surprise, they won seven straight following Rondo’s injury. However, last night their winning streak was snapped in Charlotte and they also may have lost Leandro Barbosa to [...]

The Brooklyn Nets have had a very up and down season, but will surely be right there in the mix come playoff time. Last night, they were rolled over by the Spurs in Brooklyn causing some doubt as to how seriously people should take the team. Deron Williams has been playing through the some pain [...]

The Bulls’ Joakim Noah has been out with plantar fasciitis and his return is still up in the air. But this weekend is the All-Star weekend and Noah was named to the squad. But do to his ailing foot, he may have to sit the game out which is something he understandably doesn’t want to [...]

Don’t look now, but the Indiana Pacers are just a mere 4.5 games out of first place in the East. They’ve managed to put together one of their best seasons in recent memory, while flying under the radar and doing so without Danny Granger. Imagine where they’d be with Granger. Looks like we won’t have [...]

If you were snubbed from the all-star game, would you still participate in the other contests if you were invited? It was rumored that Golden State’s Steph Curry would turn down the invite if asked to do the 3-point shootout. But apparently that isn’t the case as he will participate. This should be a good [...]

In case you haven’t noticed, Kobe Bryant has no filter these days. Absolutely none. He says whatever to whoever and worries about the consequences later. He’s not afraid to call out teammates, whether they’re current or former. He just simply doesn’t care to say what’s on his mind. One of those things on his mind [...]

Superstitions in sports is nothing new. One common trend happens to be when everyone on a team grows a beard for a common cause. Typically, that’s at the beginning of the playoffs as comradery for winning. But how about as a way to help a losing situation? This may be a first. The Dallas Mavericks [...]
