Brooklyn Nets

And you thought Dwight Howard was indecisive. Phil Jackson remains a sought after head coach. How could he not? He’s won 11 titles as a sideline stalker and in 20 years on the job, he’s never once coached a team to a record below .500. Teams want that type of resume in their locker room. [...]

Well, you can’t say you saw this one coming. The Brooklyn Nets will not be bringing back P.J. Carlesimo to coach the team next season, which means they’ll have to seek out their third head coach in the last year. Could Jerry Sloan be that coach? Deron Williams won’t rule it out (via Stefan Bondy [...]

The Chicago Bulls’ attempt to upset the Miami Heat was never going to be easy, but an excessive number of absences may make it impossible. Derrick Rose remains on the sidelines and Joakim Noah is essentially playing on one foot. We also know that Taj Gibson and Kirk Hinrich are banged up as well. And [...]

Tyshawn Taylor is one of the more promising rookies who signed an adidas Basketball endorsement this year alongside other NBA freshman like Austin Rivers, Harrison Barnes, and ROY Damian Lillard. During the regular season, Tyshawn Taylor was a habitual wearer of the Crazy Light 2 in a similar colorway so its good to see him [...]

Per their website (h/t Larry Brown Sports), CBS Chicago is encouraging fans to write an open letter to the former NBA MVP: t’s been over one year since Derrick Rose’s ACL tear and [...]

The Chicago Bulls wanted the Brooklyn Nets in the first round of the NBA playoffs. Badly. Why? Because they were beatable.

Quick answer is ‘No’. Oh, I’m sorry. Let me ask the question first. Do the Cleveland Cavaliers have a shot at landing Phil Jackson? No. There we go. After firing Byron Scott, the Cavs are on the prowl for a new coach, a search that has led them to none other than the Zen Master [...]

Carmelo Anthony and the New York Knicks aren’t done yet. They know they’ve clinched second place in the Eastern Conference. They know they’re facing the Boston Celtics in the first round. And they know they wouldn’t have to face LeBron James and the Miami Heat until the Conference Finals, should they make it that far. [...]

Mark Cuban believes in Deron Williams and the Brooklyn Nets…said no one ever. Prior to Brooklyn’s 113-96 victory over the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday night, Big D’s owner was asked about Williams and the state of the Nets. When steered in the direction of admitting that the Nets weren’t contenders, yet still strapped for cash, [...]

Josh Smith is at it again. Much has been made of Smith’s previous assertion that he is a max contract player and while the general consensus borders on split, J-Smoove is standing by his sentiments (via Gary Washburn of The Boston Globe): That was supposed to clear the pathway to happiness for Smith, who felt [...]
