Everyone did. ‘Melo and his New York Knicks had the momentum. Hibbert’s block swayed that momentum back in the Indiana Pacers’ favor. It’s not a stretch to say [...]
Phil Jackson won’t be coaching the Los Angeles Clippers because, well, that would be creepy. The Clippers agreed to part ways with head coach Vinny Del Negro—whose contract was up—on Tuesday, paving the way for them to hire anyone they wanted—so long as Donald Sterling was willing to actually pay them and Chris Paul approved.
