Rumors

UCLA’s Lonzo Ball may very well end up being the first overall pick in this summer’s NBA draft, but his father, LaVar, is stealing all of the headlines. Within the last few weeks, LaVar has proclaimed that Lonzo is better than 2-time reigning MVP Steph Curry, and that LaVar himself could’ve beat Michael Jordan in [...]

Despite the constant trade rumors that have swirled around him for the past year, it appears Jimmy Butler (or at least he says he is) is 100% committed to the Chicago Bulls organization and wants to be their cornerstone moving forward. Butler said as much when asked directly in an interview with ESPN. “Yes. I [...]

With Kevin Durant going down with a bum knee, the Spurs were no doubt licking their chops, as the #1 seed in the West seemed to be theirs for the taking. But that possibility has taken a hit with this recent news that LaMarcus Aldridge will be out for an indefinite period. The 31-year-old big [...]

It must be a humbling experience to be waived in the middle of an NBA season. No buyout. Just paid to go away. That was the situation with Brandon Jennings last week. Phil Jackson had apparently seen enough, and must’ve figured that Jennings’ $5 million salary doesn’t hurt the bottom line enough to fight over [...]

Ever since entering the league, Kyrie Irving has been regarded as one of the best ball handlers. And in recent years, many say he’s the best in that category, along with Steph Curry. Steph is no doubt crafty with the ball, but his handling is not quite of the same caliber of Kyrie. Both Paul [...]

LeBron’s public plea for a better roster didn’t fall on deaf ears. Management was active and acquired Deron Williams and Andrew Bogut. Sure, these two guys are well past their respective primes, but they are still more than serviceable. Williams is the playmaker that LeBron coveted, and Bogut potentially brings the inside scoop from Golden [...]

Intrepid ESPN Reporter and longtime inside source close to LeBron James, Brian Windhorst was on The Lowe Post podcast recently and gave an interesting peek into the defending champs state of mind heading into the trade deadline last week. While discussing the eastern conference contenders after the deadline and how the Cavaliers appear to have [...]

Suns General Manager Ryan McDonough was on Arizona Sports Radio, 98.7 FM on Friday and let it be known that the Suns had discussions and were presented with an offer from an unnamed eastern conference team that involved each team swapping three of their best assets. Here is McDonough’s quote from the Doug and Wolf [...]
