For someone who isn’t considered a free-agent flight risk, LaMarcus Aldridge sure seems like a free-agent flight risk. After declaring his loyalty to the Portland Trail Blazers over the summer, the rumor mill has started to turn on Aldridge. First a report surfaced that alleged his Blazers teammates are fearful he’ll leave in free agency. [...]

Despite missing much of the season due to injury, the Spurs’ Kawhi Leonard has won the NBA’s Defensive Player of the Year award. He finished ahead of Draymond Green and DeAndre Jordan. Frankly, it’s nothing short of incredible that DeAndre Jordan has never won this award. He should probably have two now, as he’s in [...]

Well, this certainly didn’t take long. Rajon Rondo came to the Dallas Mavericks via trade in December. Despite initial hopes and projections, it seems like he’ll be gone by July. First, we start with some weird joo joo. Mavericks head coach Rick Carlisle pulled Rondo out of the team’s Game 2 loss to the Houston [...]

It has been speculated for a few weeks now, but today was D-Day for Scott Brook. He has been relieved of his duties of head coach of the OKC Thunder after seven very successful seasons. The irony in all of this is that if the Thunder would’ve won just one more regular season game, they [...]

So much for the first-round series between the Houston Rockets and Dallas Mavericks being an actual competition. After Tuesday night’s 111-99 loss at Toyota Center, the Mavericks now find themselves in a 2-0 series hole, with little hope of extending their NBA playoff push into the second round. Make that no hope. Nothing the Mavericks [...]

The Pelicans fought hard, but dropped another one at Oracle Arena to the Warriors last night as they face a 2-0 hole headed back home. Prior to game 2, Pelicans head coach Monty Williams complained about the crowd noise. He thinks that the fans are too loud in the arena and would like something to [...]

Greg Monroe and the Detroit Pistons may not be headed for a divorce. Of all the NBA’s impending free agents, Monroe has long been considered the consummate flight risk, and for good reason. Rather than sign a new contract in restricted free agency last summer, he inked his qualifying offer, ensuring he reached unrestricted free [...]
