Memphis Grizzlies

Delonte West is chock full of baggage, but I remain surprised that he has not found a new home in the NBA. Since unceremoniously departing from the Dallas Mavericks, West really hasn’t been linked heavily to any teams. The Los Angeles Lakers toiled with signing him for awhile, but ultimately passed. Aside from them, that’s [...]

The Memphis Grizzlies have traded Marreese Speights to the Cleveland Cavaliers in a move that solidifies their future as an NBA title contender. According to ESPN.com’s Brian Windhorst, the deal will save the Grizzlies more than $6 million in salary and, most importantly, prevent them from paying any luxury tax penalties: The Memphis Grizzlies have [...]

Visions of a championship are going to prove fleeting for the Memphis Grizzlies. It may not be this season, it may not even be over the summer, but the Grizzlies are going to be disbanded. Under the weight of the not-so-new CBA, Memphis is going to get taxed up the you know what if it [...]

Mark Cuban and Dirk Nowitzki want the Dallas Mavericks to not just win, but contend for a title. But is that even possible? With the current roster, no. Hence Cuban’s interest in holding a fire sale. Or rather, a “I’ll take on any contract you don’t want if I like them” sale. Though Nowitzki’s return [...]

The Washington Wizards aren’t known for their basketball savvy anymore, yet not even they would be dumb enough to trade rookie Bradley Beal. Anywhere. Remember when THD sat down with Beal when he was coming out of HS? Well he’s come a long way since then, and is now becoming legit at the pro level [...]

If it’s not broke, the Los Angeles Clippers shouldn’t try to fix it. But should they try to make it even better? Currently, the Chris Paul-led Clippers have the second-best record in the NBA, trailing only the seemingly unbeatable Oklahoma City Thunder. But while such success would normally dictate that a team not do a [...]

These Danny Granger trade rumors just won’t go away for the Indiana Pacers and I, for the life of me, cannot figure out why. I understand the Pacers have the third-best record in the Eastern Conference. I understand that they’ve won a franchise record nine in a row at home and two straight over conference [...]

Jeremy Lin and James Harden need a versatile power forward to run with, and the Houston Rockets need look no further than Paul Millsap of the Utah Jazz. According to Chad Ford of ESPN.com, Houston is likely to be active near the trade deadline as they continue their pursuit of an additional forward: Hearing yes [...]

The plot continues to thicken for the Memphis Grizzlies. As soon as it became known that the Grizzlies were willing to deal star forward Rudy Gay in favor of some salary cap relief, all proverbial hell broke loose in Memphis. First, Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports reported that the Grizzlies and Phoenix Suns were attempting [...]

From hereon out, every game Rudy Gay plays with the Memphis Grizzlies could be his last. We’ve talked about it since the Grizzlies went on that impressive playoff run in 2011 without him, but now, it’s never seemed more real. With a boatload of money committed to Mike Conley, Marc Gasol, Zach Randolph and Gay [...]
