The Great Britain national team is paying the price in more ways than one these days as they get ready to chase the gold at the 2012 London Olympics.

Before Steve Nash to Los Angeles nearly broke the Internet, the big story of the week was that Eric Gordon decided he didn’t want to be a member of the New Orleans Hornets for the next four or five years.  As Paul Coro of the Arizona Republic writes, the max contract offer sheet Gordon agreed […]

In a stunning development, Steve Nash will be be running the point for the Los Angeles Lakers next season Sources told ESPN.com that Nash, with the New York Knicks also pressing hard to complete a similar sign-and-trade deal, was swayed to join the Lakers after a determined push from Bryant and because the move keeps […]

When Jeremy Lin’s season ended early because of an injury that kept him out of the playoffs for the New York Knicks, “Linsanity” lost a lot of its luster. But when next season starts, I would imagine it will pick up right where it left off. The question is, will that be in New York […]

Roy Hibbert averaged 12.8 points per game last season. He was an All Star Center in the Eastern Conference. Hibbert also finished the regular season averaging 8.8 rebounds and 2.0 blocks per night.

The influx of European players to the NBA — or back to the NBA in some cases — next season will extend beyond the arrival of Jonas Valanciunas from Lithuania to Toronto and from France to Denver for Evan Fournier. It is more than the return of Andrei Kirilenko and Nenad Krstic from Russia. As […]

It seems every day a member of Team U.S.A. is removing his name from the potential roster due to injury. Chris Bosh (abdominal injury), Dwayne Wade (knee surgery), Dwight Howard (back surgery), and Anthony Davis (ankle injury) are just a few players who have dropped out of playing in London leaving some holes to fill […]

Just a few days after being drafted by the New Orleans Hornets with the first overall pick in this year’s draft, Anthony Davis has reportedly suffered an ankle injury that could keep him off the Olympic team.

Several outlets are reporting Trail Blazers combo forward Nicolas Batum will meet with the Timberwolves as Minnesota continues to be extremely active early on in free agency. Batum could be a huge get for the Minnesota Timberwolves in free agency. Ricky Rubio, Kevin Love and Batum could form a young nucleus that has the potential […]

Andrei Kirilenko moved another step closer to a return to the NBA this past weekend, but by the time this long offseason and free agency frenzy is all said and done Kirilenko may not be the most coveted player fleeing CSKA Moscow. That honor just might belong to Alexey Shved. Last weekend, new CSKA head […]

Free agency has begun and we are already seeing some bizarre things.
