Derrick Rose has good news. Though “good news” and “Derrick Rose” are no longer synonymous with each other, the Chicago Bulls finally have something to look forward to next season—Rose’s actual return. Rose was in Real Madrid, and when asked about his return, he responded by saying he is 100 percent and will play in [...]

The Boston Celtics have been completely dismantled from top to bottom, and the only mainstay is Rajon Rondo who is coming off an ACL tear. Rondo has been rumored to be a difficult teammate and he has admitted to being difficult to coach. It will be interesting to see how he fairs with rookie NBA [...]

Greg Oden appears to be well on his way to another go ’round in the NBA. He has only played the equivalent of one NBA season so far (82 games) since being drafted in 2007, but maybe the second chapter will be better. Oden is scheduled to meet with three NBA teams regarding a possible [...]

Steve Nash was right, Dwight Howard really didn’t want to play for the Los Angeles Lakers. The NBA free-agency period is winding down. Most of the big-name players have signed, and a majority of the drama is over. And still I find myself writing about the Lakers on an almost daily basis. Partly because I [...]
