  • NBA Free Agency 2012 – Jeremy Lin Disappointed With Knicks

    For once, not a lot has changed in the Dwight Howard situation except for the fact that the Orlando Magic are exploring other options besides the Nets-Clippers-Cavs mega deal. Meanwhile, Jeremy Lin, still waiting for the New York Knicks to match the offer from the Houston Rockets, is disappointed the team hasn’t moved to keep him quickly enough.

  • 2012 NBA Free Agency – Houston Rockets Going for Jeremy Lin & Trading Kyle Lowry

    Point guard roulette should be the title of the 2012 NBA Free Agency period so far, as Jeremy Lin is the latest big name to probably make a switch of teams, getting the offer he wanted from the Houston Rockets, which will be very hard for the New York Knicks to match due to the salary cap restrictions.

  • 2012 NBA Free Agency – Los Angeles Lakers Get Steve Nash & Other Rumors

    The Los Angeles Lakers wanted a point guard of this caliber for a long time, and they got Steve Nash, still one of the best in the NBA via a sign-and-trade deal with the Phoenix Suns, who will get four draft picks (two first round, two second round) over 2013-2015, while the Suns wasted no time by trying to find a replacement for Nash and an upgrade for the team.

  • 2012 NBA Free Agency – Deron Williams & Other Rumors

    One of the biggest questions in this summer’s free agency period has been answered. Deron Williams decided to remain with the Brooklyn Nets instead of playing for the Dallas Mavericks, feeling that the team is doing enough (Joe Johnson trade) (and offering enough) to convince him to stay.

  • 2012 NBA Free Agency – The Best Restricted Free Agents

    The 2012 NBA free agency period is into its first day, with Steve Nash getting a lucrative offer from the Toronto Raptors while Dwight Howard wants to move to Brooklyn. In the restricted free agent zone, Jeremy Lin stands out as the biggest name (not necessarily the best player), while Roy Hibbert and Eric Gordon stand above the rest as the best players on the board.

  • Kevin Durant – The Most Popular Player in the NBA

    People like nice guys who are successful, with as little to none controversy surrounding their public persona. Kevin Durant of the Oklahoma City Thunder fits that bill perfectly, cementing his popularity and place among the league’s biggest superstars by having the best selling NBA jersey during the playoffs so far.

  • The Long List of Season Ending Injuries in the 2011-2012 NBA Season

    With Chris Bosh out indefinitely, the Miami Heat’s chances of winning the NBA title or even making it out of the East or their current series have taken a serious blow. But Bosh is just the last name in a long list of players who went down to season ending injuries in the shortened and condensed year, which hasn’t been friendly to players’ health.

  • Derrick Rose is the Most Popular Player in the NBA

    Derrick Rose didn’t exactly have the dream follow up season to his MVP campaign in 2010-2011, but his jersey has been the best selling NBA jersey since April 2011, topping Jeremy Lin, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony over the past year.

  • Life is Good for the Knicks Under Mike Woodson

    No D’Antoni, and business is booming for the New York Knicks, who decided to go with their players, mostly Carmelo Anthony and Amar’e Stoudemire, who were unhappy with whatever was going down with their former head coach. Under Mike Woodson? No losses so far, and Jeremy Lin is not shocking anyone. He might not be superstarish each night, but he’s more than good enough to lead the Knicks on some night.

  • Derrick Rose & Bulls Out to Win Title and Respect

    Derrick Rose wasn’t too pleased despite the Chicago Bulls beating the New York Knicks 104-99, despite outplaying Jeremy Lin, like every other premier point guard has, despite finishing with 32 points and 7 assists and the team improving to an NBA best 35-9 record.
