Jerry West would call star players’ bluff

When “The Logo” speaks, you listen. Jerry West has built on his legacy on the court by a legendary track record off it. This is the man who created the idea of clearing cap room for a big-name free agent — look at what he did in the year preceding the team’s acquisition of Shaquille […]

Video: Each of the 38 points Jeremy Lin scored on Friday

Jeremy Lin. My favorite nickname I’ve seen in description of Linsanity so far is Super Lintendo. Four Lins in a row was good too. I would credit those who coined each phrase, but it is seemingly in possible to keep up with the Twitter phenomenon that is Jeremy Lin. He went from 16,000 Twitter followers […]

Jerry West: Watch out for the Lakers come playoff time

The Logo has spoken and out of respect, we listen when the Logo talks.  Despite his advisory role with the Golden State Warriors, Jerry West is still talking about the Los Angeles Lakers and why not, he was a member of that organization for over half of his life. Speaking to the Los Angeles Times, […]

The return of Aaron Brooks from China will be worth the wait

J.R. Smith is getting his press. Same goes for Wilson Chandler of late. But when it comes to NBA free agents playing in China probably the one guy who will have even a bigger impact upon his return to the league than Smith and Chandler is point guard Aaron Brooks.

Mo Williams raises uncertainty in Clippers camp

Mo Williams has been on a roller coaster of a career. Just when he thinks he has figured things out, the NBA throws him a bit of a curve ball. The latest curve ball came when Williams went from bad team to the Clippers with a chance to play alongside Blake Griffin. Then Chris Paul […]

Orlando Magic fans are still holding out hope that Dwight Howard doesn’t want to leave. But as the Magic slide further down the Eastern Conference standings, the likelihood of Howard packing his bags is increasing. Howard has already requested a trade, but with the deadline approaching, the Magic haven’t gotten an offer they think is […]

Roundtable: Who really should have made the All Star team?

The All Star rosters were announced last night and they mostly look good.  You can make solid arguments for almost everyone who made the All Star team this year.  But like everyone else, we have some differences of opinion. So the CC group huddled together in our secret underground bunker (built during the lockout, since we […]

Chandler and Brooks might be stuck

During the lockout, when some of the NBA players went to make some money overseas, most of them were able to get clauses in their contracts that allowed them to return to their teams when the lockout was over. That wasn’t the case for the ones that played in China. Players such as Aaron Brooks, […]

Love to compete in the Three-Point Contest?

When Minnesota Timberwolves’ Kevin Love isn’t stomping on Luis Scola’s face and chest, he is a pretty good player. The double-double machine was recently selected to join the 2012 Western Conference All-Star reserves (his second All-Star appearance) but apparently he won’t just be taking part in the Sunday big game. Love (h/t cbssports.com) is reportedly […]
