LeBron Addresses Tristan Thompson’s Contract Standoff

LeBron James’ feelings haven’t changed. He believes Tristan Thompson should remain with the Cleveland Cavaliers. That much has been clear for a while.

Jimmy Butler Admits He and D-Rose Must Improve Chemistry

Andre Drummond Reacts to Pistons’ 2015-16 Schedule

Andre Drummond is lit. The NBA released its 2015-16 schedule on Wednesday, much to the displeasure of the Detroit Pistons big man: 20 back to back games ….. No national televised games…..

Markieff Morris on Suns: “I’m Not Going to Be There”

Last week, reported that Markieff Morris was not talking to Suns management or teammates because he was upset that the team traded his twin brother to Detroit in order to clear cap space in an attempt to sign LaMarcus Aldridge.
