Now that the initial free-agency hype has subsided, the Washington Wizards can focus on making Bradley Beal a very, very (very) rich 20-something shooting guard. Set to enter his fourth NBA season, Beal is among the league’s most prominent extension candidates. His case isn’t as cut and dry as those of Anthony Davis and Damian [...]

After spurning the Dallas Mavericks by having a change of heart to eventually re-sign with the Los Angeles Clippers, it’s safe to say that DeAndre Jordan is the most hated man right now in Texas. Also, it’ll certainly be awhile before anyone can move on from this especially Mavs’ owner Mark Cuban, who went on [...]

The Oklahoma City Thunder won’t be having problems filling in their center position. Having been initially offered a $70 million offer sheet from the Portland Trailblazers last Thursday, Kanter immediately signed it which forced the Thunder into a serious predicament. Without a doubt, the amount of money offered is not justifiable to this point for [...]

The Dallas Mavericks’ loss looks like it’ll end up being JaVale McGee’s gain. Whiffing on DeAndre Jordan in free agency has left the Mavs to shift their course and try putting together a competitive unit on the fly. They traded for Zaza Pachulia from the Milwaukee Bucks, and they essentially lucked into Deron Williams. Charlie [...]

Jordan agreed to join the Mavs, then flip-flopped, leaving Mark Cuban’s team in shambles. They have cap space but no one to spend it on. Roy Hibbert has already [...]

To say Gerald Green was a late-bloomer would be an understatement. For someone to be as freakishly athletic as he is, it’s tough to fathom that he’s had a tough time latching on in the league. But after a solid 2-years in Phoenix, he’s a certified commodity. He’s also a member of the Miami Heat. [...]

The wait is over (in the event you were holding your breath). LeBron James has re-signed with the Cavaliers. He has agreed to another short-term deal: 2-years, worth a max amount of $47 million. The deal is only for two years because he’s higher more riches once the new CBA and he next contract roll [...]

Paul Pierce is a native of California, so it wasn’t a huge shocker this summer when he decided to return home for his final playing days to wear a LA Clippers jersey. If there was any surprise at all, it would have been due to how well Pierce fit in with the upstart Wizards program, [...]
