George Karl

Well, at least Rajon Rondo is honest. Maybe too honest. On Tuesday night, Rondo got to talking about the expectations for the Sacramento Kings this season. While he would say he thinks that they can exceed expectations, he did so while admitting expectations aren’t high to begin with. Per ESPN.com’s Baxter Holmes: Rajon Rondo told [...]

This Los Angeles Lakers coaching search hasn’t been much fun. All along, the assumption was that the Lakers would make a splash by inking a big, flashy, oh-my-god-did-they-really-sign-him? name. Instead of action and visions of grandeur, though, there have been the same old recurrent, drab rumors that have them interviewing prospective candidates like Mike Dunleavy, [...]

Carmelo Anthony doesn’t appear to be a favorite of George Karl’s anymore. Not to say he ever was. He could have been. If he was, forcing his way off the Denver Nuggets and onto the New York Knicks is a good way to ensure he never would be again. Anyhow, Karl, a veteran NBA coach [...]

Because the Houston Rockets can never have enough superstars, right? Daryl Morey and company’s two-year long pursuit of Dwight Howard is well known and has been well documented. The Rockets want him.
