Kobe Bryant kneels to no one, including Dwight Howard. At a time when the Los Angeles Lakers truthfully have no idea what Howard will do when he hits unrestricted free agency this summer, I hope their counting on Kobe to do anything other than sell Howard on remaining in Tinseltown. Speaking from the NBA All-Star [...]

Jeremy Lin got enough of the spotlight and attention last year in New York, thank you very much. As the NBA All-Star weekend is now in the books, Jeremy Lin has been telling anyone who will listen that he is happy he didn’t make the all-star game (by the skin of his teeth). Lin didn’t [...]

Carlos Boozer has gone from a potential amnesty candidate to the NBA player most likely to be moved by the trade deadline.
