There is some good news for the New York Knicks. Carmelo Anthony, who had his knee drained during the regular season, will not require knee surgery over the offseason. For the Knicks, who have no cap flexibility and an aging roster, that’s huge. They can’t afford having ‘Melo go under the knife. Not after falling [...]
Dwight Howard is in no rush. Though the Los Angeles Lakers undoubtedly hope that Howard would make a decision about his future without taking too much time, the big man reportedly has no intention of expediting the process. He’s prepared to do his due diligence and take his time. And his “due diligence” will include [...]
This just won’t go away. No matter what the numbers or sheer logic say, the Dwight Howard to Brooklyn Nets rumors just won’t subside. At all. Brooklyn was Howard’s preferred destination of choice when he was with the Orlando Magic, but when the two sides were unable to strike an accord, Dwight ended up with [...]
Can you honestly say you’re surprised?

He inevitably played, logging 39 minutes and helping lead the [...]
David Lee will plans to play again this season. After tearing his right hip flexor in the first NBA playoff game of his career, the Golden State Warriors’ All-Star intends to return to the floor before the postseason is over once again. Lee already “returned” for Golden State’s first-round series-clinching Game 6 victory over the [...]
Boston Celtics general manager Danny Ainge has no illusions about his current team. Though the Celtics came back from a 3-0 series deficit to bring the New York Knicks to a Game 6 in the first round of the NBA playoffs, Ainge knows that he doesn’t have a contender on his hands. He also knows [...]
Maybe Chris Paul isn’t such a flight risk after all. Following the Los Angeles Clippers’ first-round exit at the hands of the Memphis Grizzlies, I was of the mind that Paul would consider spurning Hollywood for a different locale. And I still am. Fellow Clipper Matt Barnes, however, is not. Speaking with ESPNLA 710, Barnes [...]
