Once an avowed homophobe, Tim Hardaway says he has grown up and changed his views on homosexuality. Hardaway, a standout at the University of Texas at El Paso and a five-time NBA all-star, got into hot water in 2007 when he went on the radio and said, “You know, I hate gay people, so let […]

The NBA purchased the New Orleans Hornets franchise from founding owner George Shinn and minority owner Gary Chouest this past December to bail those two out of some cash flow issues they were experiencing.  Last time I had some cash flow issues, I sold an old refrigerator I had in my garage on Craigslist.  As a result […]

Any NBA players under contract tinkering with the idea of playing in China should the lockout eat into the new season need to look somewhere else.
