NBA Rumors

If it feels like John Calipari is always linked to an NBA return, that’s only because he is always linked to an NBA return. Those rumors never die down, not even now, with his Kentucky Wildcats in the thick of a March Madness tournament they’re favored to win. Even amid all this, he’s still thinking [...]

These Tom Thidodeau rumors just won’t die. It’s incredibly odd that they exist at all. Thibodeau is by no means a perfect coach, but the Chicago Bulls seem utterly unhappy with him, even after he’s led them to recurring playoff berths despite a host of injuries to key players over the last four seasons. He’s [...]

Welcome to Bizarro World. Population: Dallas Mavericks. Mark Cuban’s crew has been in something of a tailspin since the Rajon Rondo trade in December. They’re still in the hunt for a top-three Western Conference playoff seed, but their offense is no longer historical, and they’re now one of the West’s few pretender candidates. Plenty of [...]

Wrapping your head around the San Antonio Spurs making a major free-agency splash is difficult. But you must do it. Because it may happen. The Spurs delayed re-signing Kawhi Leonard to an extension in order to preserve cap space. And with Tim Duncan’s and Manu Ginobili’s futures uncertain, rumors have been floated this way and [...]

It’s shaping up to be an eventful offseason for the Cleveland Cavaliers. This, in a way, isn’t surprising. Active offseasons could include a championship parade, so that’s pretty cool. But active in the sense they have to worry about their roster, specifically their Big Three foundation, isn’t so cool. LeBron James can become a free [...]

LeBron James deserves some privacy. Media members were caught trying to take some inappropriate photos of LeBron in the Cleveland Cavaliers’ locker room during their most recent road trip apparently—not once, but twice. Chris Haynes of the Northeast Ohio Media Group has the scoop (h/t ProBasketBallTalk): After Sunday’s 123-108 win over Orlando, James was sitting [...]

Golden State Warriors fans probably owe New York Knicks owner James Dolan a hearty thanks. It’s not enough that the Warriors destroyed the Knicks in New York on Saturday night, winning 125-94 while the boys in orange and blue basically did whatever they wanted, whenever they wanted. No, that loss was yet another reminder of [...]

Um…. Er… Sure. Kevin Durant and trade don’t go together in the same breath or sentence or room or shared sides of the globe. Not unless you’re referencing his opinion on a different deal, one the Oklahoma City Thunder pulled off or otherwise. For example, one such headline might read, “Kevin Durant Thinks Thunder Trading [...]

The New York Knicks are New York Knicks-ing. There isn’t much left for the NBA’s worst team to play for other than losses these days. Carmelo Anthony is done for the year and they’re short on young talent to evaluate, so losing is in their best interest, since it greatly increases their chances of winning [...]

Kobe Bryant and Mitch Kupchak are on the same page. It’s just not the page you think. All along it’s been assumed the Los Angeles Lakers would be rabid free-agency players this summer, trying to make the most of Kobe’s fast-fading twilight by throwing money every which way at players of note. While they’ll still [...]
