I couldn’t help but envision this Ben Stiller-esque “Starsky and Hutch” style dance-off at the disco between Dwight Howard and Shaquille O’Neal after I was about fifteen seconds into the video below.  I don’t know why either, I’m just being honest with you. I felt like any moment Howard’s rival caped crusader was going to jump into the […]

As Miami Heat’s LeBron James tours China, he fielded some questions on the lockout, and Miami’s chances at winning a title. And despite the fact the upcoming NBA season is in doubt, James is training as if training camps will open next month and says the Heat will win a title sooner rather than later. […]

Los Angeles Lakers’ Kobe Bryant is making his way through China and took time to make an appearance to discuss the NBA lockout, the recently retired Yao Ming and winning NBA championships.

If Georgia wants to qualify for the London 2012 games, it would seem they will have to do it without Zaza Pachulia. The Hawks center suffered a leg injury (via probasketballtalk) in a match against Bulgaria and will be out the rest of the tournament. A huge blow to the Georgian squad who are already […]

From playing overseas to football, it seems many locked out NBA players are looking for other outlets to pass the time as the CBA negotiations push forward. For Phoenix Suns’ Steve Nash, the offseason has also given him a chance to hit the soccer field with the team he serves as part-owner, the Vancouver Whitecaps. […]

Freed from the shackles of the World-Wide Leader, Chris Sheridan is now breaking news on his own site.  The latest, after yesterday’s rosy prediction that a deal will get done in time to save the season, is the possibility of radical changes to the NBA draft.  The NBA wants a third round in the draft, […]

As Crossover Chronicles’ John Karalis reported, the Goodman League will take on the Indy Pro-Am League this month in what should be another highlight-filled game to catch during this NBA offseason and lockout. Now before you scoff at the notion of the Indy Pro-Am League giving the Kevin Durant-led Goodman League any competition on the […]

Phoenix Suns’ Steve Nash has done much in his NBA career. Countless highlights, deep playoff runs, MVP awards, All-Star appearances and has garnered a reputation as one of the best point guards to ever play the game.
