As the hours pass toward the deadline of the NBA’s existing CBA, and the high possibility of a lockout occurring, many NBA players are prepping for the inevitable lockout. Some players such as Minnesota Timberwolves’ Anthony Tolliver will be working in the real estate business, while some players might be looking to play overseas such […]

Boston Celtics PF Glen Davis joined Isaac and Big Suke of KFXX in Portland earlier this week for an interview that was in some ways all over the map.  In one breathe he said he “was a big fan of Kobe” and in another he said of Bryant “the way he’s just so poised gets under my […]

The rhetoric leaving Tuesday’s meeting in New York between the union and owners was more amicable than it was last week. Concessions were made and hope was there. Just not a whole lot. The players walked into Friday’s meeting wearing shirts that said “Stand,” a symbol of the solidarity for the union after a divided […]

The Dallas Mavericks may have gotten back to the real world a scant two weeks since taking the Larry O’Brien Trophy home. But they sure don’t want to leave it. DeShawn Stevenson was caught partying a little too hard and tried to get out of it by reminding police the Mavericks were the championships. That […]

Not many NBA players who get the defensive assignment to guard Miami Heat’s LeBron James will jump for joy. James is a handful. His size, scoring ability, and speed is more than enough to handle for a would-be defender. But don’t tell that to the newest member of the Chicago Bulls. Last night, the Bulls […]

Here is what some of the newest members of the NBA had to say after their name was announced by David Stern, and they put on their NBA draft cap from last night’s 2011 NBA Draft. Cleveland Cavaliers’ Kyrie Irving on replacing LeBron James: “One, I’m really not looking to replace LeBron honestly, just try […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers officially made the draft pick most expected they would once they got the first pick in the lottery. Duke’s Kyrie Irving is now a member of the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Cavaliers were the only team Irving worked out for, and now the Cavs have a point guard that makes Baron Davis expendable. […]

PRUDENTIAL CENTER, NEW JERSEY – As reported earlier, the Milwaukee Bucks are set to obtain Stephen Jackson from the Charlotte Bobcats after agreeing to a three-team trade that gives Charlotte the seventh pick in tonight’s NBA Draft. Charlotte will received forward Corey Maggette from Milwaukee as well. The Sacramento Kings will receive the number 10 […]

Phoenix is at an interesting crossroads. The Steve Nash era is coming to an end and they see the need to bring in a true backup point guard. But the Suns still have a relatively healthy and springy Nash who looks like he could be like Jason Kidd, playing well into his 30s. As much […]

Some teams have all the luck.  The Minnesota Timberwolves are not one of those teams.  A regular in the lottery, yet never with the first overall pick.  Always the bridesmaid, never the bride.  If a certain draft has two “can’t miss” prospects in it, Minnesota is sure to end up drafting third overall.  Which brings […]

The Milwaukee Bucks are a perennial middle-of-the-pack team but were expected to make the playoffs last season in the weak Eastern Conference. Yet they’re back in the lottery, a big step back after a promising 09-10 campaign that featured the memorable “Fear the Deer” catchphrase. Injuries to multiple important players throughout the season didn’t exactly […]

The Charlotte Bobcats are not very good, and probably won’t be for a while.  And when you consider that losing Joel Przybilla and Kwame Brown hurts them, it’s a safe bet to say they need size.  Tyrus Thomas isn’t going to man the paint by himself.  The question then becomes, where do you get the […]
