Rumors

Mark Cuban is not one to hold his tongue and he exercised that theory at the start of the Mavs vs. Rockets first round series where he said Houston were predictable. He went on to say more. “There’s no more predictable team than the Rockets. You know exactly what they’re gonna do. But James Harden [...]

Championship or not, Tom Thibodeau’s departure from the Bulls seems imminent as season’s end. Monty Williams getting canned in New Orleans was a surprise, but it opens up an intriguing coaching opportunity down there. A Thibodeau-to-New Orleans situation has been rumored for sometime, but it’s more likely and league sources are confirming that the Pelicans [...]

With just a few hours remaining before game five, the Grizzlies will look to redeem themselves from a crushing 101-84 defeat back in game four against the Warriors by returning the favor. Unfortunately, they might have to do this without one of their key players and premiere defender Tony Allen, who is ailing with a [...]

For a few years now, Charles Barkley has stated that he’d probably leaving TNT to do other things when his current contract is up in 2016. That would mean next season would be the last time we saw Chuck in that role. But apparently he has had a change in heart as Turner Sports has [...]

Although Wall will not play in game 4 either, coach Randy Wittman remains optimistic about John’s progress. “It’s headed in the right direction,” Wittman said. “Again, [...]

Jimmy Butler went from practically unknown, to all-star, to Most Improved Player. So the next step in that progressions would be a max player. Right? The Lakers think so, anyway. All it takes is one team to think so before you are regarded as such. L.A. will plan on trying to land the restricted free [...]

The writing was probably on the wall for a while, but it’s official: Bill Simmons is leaving ESPN when his contract expires in September, as the two sides could not come to terms on an extension. Simmons is very polarizing and once he became a fixture on the network’s NBA coverage, his popularity grew and [...]

With the loss of Kevin Love and JR Smith, the Cavs can’t really afford to lose any more key guys. So when Iman Shumpert left game 2 vs. Chicago with a groin injury, Cleveland fans held their breath. Cleveland may be without the services of Shump in game 3, but the good news is that [...]
