Rumors

The story is still developing, but news is breaking that Dwyane Wade’s first cousin, Nykea Aldridge, was shot and killed today in the south side of Chicago. The mother of four children was walking with a stroller on route to register her kids for the upcoming school year. An altercation occurred on the street between [...]

After nearly winning league MVP and making a trip to the Conference Finals in the 2014-15 season, James Harden and the Rockets had a forgettable 2015-16. Sure, they made the playoffs again, but their slow start got former coach Kevin McHale fired and they weren’t nearly the team we remembered from the season before. But [...]

Blake Griffin’s future with the Los Angeles Clippers may not be up in the air after all. Many expect the All-Star forward to, at the very least, explore all possibilities once he, presumably, exercises his early termination option next summer and becomes a free agent. But, according to Steve Kyler of Basketball Insiders, that’s not [...]

When you look at the Timberwolves, you see greatness on the rise. The team has so much promise and talent on paper. But we’ve certainly seen talent and promise on paper. You have to put it together on the court. And being in the West, that’s a tall order. But Andrew Wiggins in confident. The [...]

Stephen Jackson is serious about his NBA return, but he needs a team to take him seriously. He’s been out of the game for a few years, but he swears he has a couple years left in him. You hate to see this because if he doesn’t get a shot, he will not have left [...]

In theory, Dirk Nowitzki should’ve always been a max player for the Mavs, and it should be that way until the day he retires. He’s meant that much to the organization. But Dirk has willingly taken less money along the way, in hopes that Mark Cuban would use that extra cash to recapture what they [...]

Derek Fisher going directly from playing in the NBA to coaching in the NBA was rare. Aside from Jason Kidd, he’s the only other guy to do this without any sort of break in between. But what might also set Fisher apart from former player-turned-coach, is that he’s now attempting to become the first player-turned [...]

Historically, the LA Clippers have been one of the worst franchises in all of North American team sports, but their luck changed about 5 years ago. Now, they’re consistently one of the best teams out west. No longer are they the little brother of the Lakers. They are easily the better, more entertaining team and [...]

We never got the impression that Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook were best friends during their eight years as teammates in OKC, so they certainly aren’t that now. KD has said that he doesn’t think his relationship with Russ will ever be the same and he’s probably right. Especially since, reportedly, Durant recently told Westbrook [...]
