NBA Rumors

Andrew Bynum is quite the headline-grabber these days. After his stint went horribly wrong with the Cleveland Cavaliers, he was traded to the Chicago Bulls, who subsequently waived him. Now he’s an unrestricted free agent, able to sign with the team of choosing, likely for a minimum salary. How did we get here? Seriously, how [...]

Impossible might not be the perfect word, but it’s pretty damn close. The New York Knicks are reportedly shopping J.R. Smith, the mercurial shooting guard and reigning Sixth Man of the Year who was just fined $50,000 for a peculiar shoelace fetish, according to ESPN’s Marc Stein and Ian Begley. From ESPN New York: While [...]

Drama, drama, drama. You knew this season was going to be tough for the New York Knicks. Not 10-21 and tied-for-the-third-worst-record-in-the-Eastern-Conference tough, but tough enough. Speculation was bound to ensue with Carmelo Anthony preparing to explore free agency for the first time of his career. You just knew it. But it wasn’t supposed to be [...]

Those New York Knicks are at it again. No, not winning. I said “again,” thereby implying they’re plotting a free-agency coup of epic and unrealistic proportions. According to ESPN’s Brian Windhorst, the Knicks are hoping Rajon Rondo will force a trade to New York before 2015. If all else fails, they’ll snag him in free [...]

The Lakers have already tried trading him once, in a deal that would have landed them Chris Paul in 2011. There’s also the chance [...]

Rajon Rondo doesn’t know how to fix the New York Knicks. Then again, who does? Speaking with reporters, Rondo was asked about the recent rumor that Carmelo Anthony was recruiting him to join the Knicks in 2015, when he’ll become an unrestricted free agent. Rondo’s former high school coach at Oak Hill Academy, Steve Smith, [...]

Welp. New York Knicks fans weren’t supposed to be worried about Carmelo Anthony leaving. Why would he? He loves New York. The city has endless marketing opportunities. The Knicks have $129 million with his name on it. ‘Melo is the only player an alcohol-basted James Dolan would jump through a ring of fire for. He’s [...]

Oh, you New York Knicks. You wildly dysfunctional, presently terrible New York Knicks. You never cease to amaze us whilst also making us loathe ourselves for indulging your embarrassing antics. Sorry, did I lose you there? Good, I didn’t think so. The Knicks have been a living, breathing catastrophe this season. Reminiscent of the days [...]
