Draft rumors: Magic looking for point guard, Hornets like Saric

Just eight teams left in the playoffs, it is time for most fan bases to turn their attentions to the future.  Today, the list of invites for next week's Chicago draft combine were revealed.  We are also starting to get a heavy dose of mock drafts from a lot of different sites.  In ESPN's, Chad […]

Relocation committee recommends Kings stay in Sacramento

We are one step closer to a resolution in the Sacramento Kings/Seattle SuperSonics saga after the NBA's relocation committee made a unanimous recommendation to deny the request to relocate the team to Seattle, according to several reports. This does not totally rule out the chance for relocation, but it would be pretty odd to see […]

Cavs want LeBron James and LaMarcus Aldridge

By now you have probably heard the news, the Cleveland Cavaliers have hired Mike Brown as their head coach again, after letting him go three years ago. Good for him, I do not think he is either a great coach or the abysmal failture that he was painted as during his depature from the Los […]

Five things of note out East for Playoffs

The Eastern Conference playoffs begin Saturday at 3 p.m. with the easily the most intriguing of the first round match ups — the Boston Celtics vs. the New York Knicks. Otherwise, there is not a ton of sizzle in the first round in the east, and really probably will not be a ton in the […]

Bryon Scott out as Cavs head coach, Frank out in Detroit

The first domino in the NBA coaching carousel dropped Thursday morning and it was a pretty significant domino. The Cleveland Cavaliers have fired Byron Scott after his third year with the team. Scott's record over those three years was 64-166, which is a winning percentage of .278, which is the lowest of any coach in […]

Using amnesty on Kobe won’t solve any on court problems

Not long after Kobe Bryant was injured, a lot of people started wondering out loud whether the Los Angeles Lakers should use their amnesty clause on Kobe Bryant, shedding the gigantic $30 million price tag off their salary cap figure for next season.  The thought was it's Kobe's final year of his current deal and […]

Maloofs making demands of Sacramento

The potential move of the Sacramento Kings has been a long, winding process that has now involved fans in Sacramento, Anaheim, Seattle and, for a hot minute, Virginia Beach. Presumably it will come to a resolution next week when the NBA Board of Governors decides whether to approve the Kings move to Seattle. The Kings' […]

Fight for Kings a tale of two cities with two visions

We still do not know what exactly was said when the members of the Seattle and Sacramento investment groups gave their presentations about purchasing the Kings to the NBA's finance and relocation committees. What we do know, judging by the press conferences given by the groups, is that each unsurprisingly played to the strengths of […]

Pay Andre Iguodala

It's probably hard to imagine turning down close to $20 million in guaranteed money but Denver Nuggets swingman Andre Iguodala told Fox Sports Florida he's planning on opting out of the final year of his deal this summer, forgoing a guaranteed $16 million to seek a long term deal.  Iguodala was quick to note that […]

Fourth investor emerges in Sacramento’s bid to keep Kings

The mood in California's capitol has never been one that is resigned to the fact the Sacramento Kings are likely moving. Led by Mayor Kevin Johnson, Kings fans have remained stubbornly hopeful and slightly confident that the team is staying put. In the last few days however, the fan base and local leaders have become […]

Should John Calipari jump to the NBA?

Short of making the Eastern Conference Finals, it is hard to imagine Brooklyn Nets interim head coach P.J. Carlesimo lasting past this season.  At the same time, John Calipari's Kentucky Wildcats did not make the NCAA Tournament and are even coming off a loss to Robert Morris in the first round of the NIT. Seemingly, […]

Dwight Howard parts ways with business manager

According to Howard, nothing specific happened, he just felt it was time for the two to go their own ways. At the moment, it […]

Kyrie Irving injures shoulder, should sit rest of season

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Kyrie Irving is likely to miss the rest of the month of March and possibly some time in April after suffering a left shoulder sprain over the weekend.  According to Jeff Zillgitt of USA Today, Irving will be sidelined 3-4 weeks. There are about 5 1/2 weeks left in the season […]

That time Tony Parker was almost a Celtic

We've known for a long time that Tim Duncan was almost a member of the Boston Celtics coming out of college (Celtics had the best chance to get the first pick in the draft), but did you know that Tony Parker was also almost a member of the Celtics? That's right, over NBA All-Star Weekend, […]

Whales revealed: Kevin Johnson outlines bid to keep Kings in Sacramento
