January 31, 2019January 31, 2019 Brandon King

Kyrie open to rejoining Lebron James?

January 29, 2019January 29, 2019 Brandon King

Right? Well according to…

When LeBron James had to leave the team’s Christmas Day beatdown of the world champion Golden State Warriors, the Lakers fan base has held its collective breath. In the interim, the Lakers have also seen Rajon Rondo and Kyle Kuzma fall out of the lineup due to injuries.

NBA sends out memo to teams about anti-tampering rules

December 28, 2018December 28, 2018 Brandon King

Today the NBA sent a message to its teams about tampering…..literally. The comments of LeBron James ( and those of Giannis Antetokounmpo, though they aren’t getting near the amount of pub) in regards to Pelicans forward/center Anthony Davis were, much to the delight of several NBA GM’s, the impetus for the NBA sending out a memorandum to teams to remind them of tampering rules. More from the NBA memo: This principle is particularly important in today’s media environment, where any actions or comments relating to potential player movement receive immediate…
