Brandon Jennings was the first guy to go from high school basketball to pro basketball over in Europe and then to the NBA, finding a loophole in the league’s rule that players have to go to at least one year of college. When Jennings did enter the NBA draft, he was still just 19 years […]

Who could forget the hair dying, the wedding dress and all the other ridiculous antics Dennis Rodman pulled when he was playing in the NBA? Well it looks like even after his career, the craziness hasn’t left his blood. Rodman is taking part in the US Pro-Ball Legend Asia Tour, which tipped off yesterday in […]

I would say it’s a bad sign when one of your star players is saying that he doesn’t think his knees can make it through the season before the season even starts. The New York Daily news is reporting that Knicks forward Amar’e Stoudemire thinks the shortened, 66-game schedule, may be too much for his body […]

Since Monta Ellis entered the league six years ago, we’ve seen a lot of talent and a lot that will make you shake your head. Ellis has spent his entire NBA career with the Golden State Warriors, he should be the leader of the team but his attitude has kept him out of that position. […]

Is the NBA really that short on quality centers? It must be because CBS Sports is reporting that the Golden State Warriors have signed Kwame Brown to a 1-year deal for $7 million. Yes, that Kwame Brown. This isn’t some young guy that you just haven’t heard of yet with coincidentally the same name, it’s […]

Ever since the 2007 draft, the Portland Trail Blazers have been all-in on Greg Oden. They’ve stuck it out through injuries and missed games. He’s only played 82 games in his four-year career, and hasn’t even seen the floor since December of 2009. Despite all this, it looks like the Blazers still want him. Blazers […]

Commissioner David Stern is clearly ready to move on from this whole lockout mess. He wants to pretend it never happened and just play basketball. But things don’t work that way. The fans still feel a little scorned by what happened, by the loss of some of their season and having to worry when they’d […]

Vince Carter isn’t the high-flying big time all-star he used to be, but he could still be an asset to a team looking for a championship. Carter spent last season in Phoenix after being traded from Orlando, and now ESPN is reporting that the Suns don’t want Carter’s big contract this year. If the Suns […]

For years, Miami Heat forward Chris Bosh has been called “soft” and “weak” and any other adjective you could use to describe a big man that won’t get in the paint and throw some weight around. Now, he’s trying to change that. The Miami Sun-Sentinel is reporting that Bosh has put on some muscle and […]

If the Los Angeles Lakers are going to compete for a title this year, they’re going to need a new point guard. Derek Fisher is getting up there, and there’s no doubt that all the NBA negotiations took a few years off his life. So once the big free agent frenzy begins, who will they […]

It’s the potential one-on-one matchup that everyone is talking about. No, not Kobe vs. LeBron, it’s much bigger than that. It’s Michael Jordan vs. Ron Artest (or Metta World Peace if you want to play along with the insanity).

Everyone knows the old saying, “If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.” Well it’s looking like that’s the case for those Power Balance bracelets that everyone was talking about a few years ago. You remember the bracelets that supposedly made you more coordinated with super-human strength? The ones that were practically […]

It’s an idea that’s been tossed around. The fans have thought it. It’s certainly crossed the mind of the players, Amar’e Stoudemire even came out and said it. What do you need the owners for? Why not start a player-run league? Slam Online reports that Billy Hunter, the former head of the players’ union, has […]

It’s not just the fans that are fed up with the lockout, now some big companies are expressing their frustrations as well.
