Derrick Rose

The Chicago Bulls had to do some roster shuffling again on Friday night, but it didn’t appear to effect the team what so ever. In the Bulls 118-115 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers, one player returned to the starting lineup, while another sat out again. Center Joakim Noah was back on the floor after missing [...]

As the Chicago Bulls prepare for their Friday night tilt against the Philadelphia 76ers, the team has released it’s latest injury report.

[...]

Darkness, in the form of immense idleness, has set in over the NBA and basketball community at large. Any and all activity is basically suspended. For real.

Fresh off handing Chandler Parsons $46 million, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban didn’t want him playing for Team USA, risking injury and, more importantly, putting his investment in harm’s way.

Everything and anything about Derrick Rose continues to incite strong responses. When he struggles, the walls are closing in, his knees crumbling like cake, his future dark and dreary, toeing the line of hopeless. When he thrives—even if only for one game, one play or a warmup dunk—clouds part, birds sing, the harrowing reality of [...]

Adam Silver only speaks the truth. Less than a year into his tenure as NBA commissioner, Silver has not held back. From wanting to impose a new draft age limit to banning super-sized shitbag Donald Sterling for good, he’s shot straight from the hip, never shying away from the big decisions or questions. Talking about [...]
