Times Picayune (John Reid, The Times Picayune) —
Although next month’s NBA draft is considered to be deep with talent, New Orleans Hornets Coach Monty Williams disagrees. With two lottery picks, the Hornets are slotted fourth and 10th in the May 30 draft lottery and have a 13.7 percent chance of...
SBN: Welcome to Loud City (J.A. Sherman) —
The Thunder dropped a close game last night to the Lakers in Game 3, losing 99-96. As the saying goes, the more desperate team usually wins, and that certainly could describe the Lakers' looking into a 3-0 series abyss. The Lakers ground it out, manufactured the points they needed, and are a game away from turning this series on its head. In the midst of the loss though, I can't help but...
SBN: Raptors HQ (rbala) —
Kris Joseph skips the New Jersey Draft Combine happening this weekend but by all accounts Gonzaga big man Robert Sacre is staying in. Sacre had a real up and down season with great stretches sandwiching injury laden middles but this is a great place for him to show what type of player he could be to the pro scouts. As outlined by our colleagues at The Slipper Still Fits , Sacre did...

As we let you all in a few days ago on the Can Ball Report's Twitter feed, Kris Joseph was invited to the pre-Draft combine being hosted jointly by the New Jersey/Brooklyn Nets and the Houston Rockets slated for this weekend. But no sooner than 12 hours (actually more like 8 or so) after we learned of this news we found out that Joseph has actually opted out of the according to...

The workout begins on Saturday; here's the full roster via NetsDaily . The most interesting names in Saturday's first session are Kim English of Missouri and Terrell Stoglin of Maryland. English is a wing who...

I maintain that people in the league have told me the Knicks will reach out, but talk like this has me starting to question it. And yes, I am having a hard time believing that they will possibly allow a … Continue reading →

Can Ball Ray, the finder of the strange and unusual on Ebay, has found an oddball of an autograph for you Raptors fans. The player who's autograph it is is a memorable Raptor shooter during that string of three consecutive Play Off runs but the item signed is a little unusual. Find out who it is and what he signed here ... Item: A Major League baseball autographed by Dell Curry ...
Big Easy Buzz Blog (Hornets.com) —
By: Jim Eichenhofer, Hornets.com, @Jim_Eichenhofer For numerous young Hornets players, the silver lining to a rampant, teamwide injury bug in 2011-12 was the chance to receive an unexpectedly large amount of playing time. Perhaps no player benefited more than Lance Thomas, who went from D-Leaguer to NBA starter over the course of a few months. After being cut by New Orleans early in the...
New York Magazine (Will Leitch) —
You know, there are two NBA teams in New York City right now. Obviously, you knew that, but seriously: The Nets are officially in Brooklyn now, with offices and logos and everything. In a couple of months, there will officially be scheduled games — you can already buy tickets — and next month, there will even be an NBA Draft in which the Brooklyn Nets will make a...
SBN: Welcome to Loud City (Zorgon) —
Via ProdiJTV on YouTube and GRP Fly Clothing : As Thunder fans, we've had to deal with some bad music videos. After sitting through things like "Reppin' That Blue and Orange" and "Beard Like Harden" , I was losing faith in Oklahoma City's creativity. But finally, a solid piece of work has come through with this spoken word performance of "Thunder Up, Son!". I know,...

Thunder rally foils Lakers hopes. (Oklahoman). Rejuvenated Garnett leads Celtics. (SI.com). Popovich logical choice for Olympic team. ( Sacramento Bee). Williams heading to Moscow good for Nets. (New York Post). ...
SBN: Welcome to Loud City (Zorgon) —
Yahoo! Sports Box Score: What is your initial reaction to tonight's result? Once again, the Thunder somehow saved themselves from a massive hole. It's almost surreal at this point. I'm reminded of one episode of the Twilight Zone I watched. There was this guy who was a lifelong criminal, died, and went to hell. In hell, he robbed casinos over and over again, and despite impossible odds,...
SBN: Welcome to Loud City (Zorgon) —
I know the premise of this article seems kind of silly, but it's a direct response to another article from The Lost Ogle . It's a site which I love and pretty much gets me through my day. They're 10 times funnier than I, and pretty much have the scoop on everything. But I'm not a fan of their NBA columns really, either because they're too basic or just flat out wrong. I wanted to throw out...
SBN: Orlando Pinstriped Post (Evan Dunlap) —
Eight days have passed since the Indiana Pacers eliminated the Orlando Magic in the first round of the 2012 NBA Playoffs, but Orlando has yet to announce any decision on the futures of head coach Stan Van Gundy or Otis Smith, the team's President of Basketball Operations. Though he offers no explanation for the delay, Chad Ford of ESPN.com said in a chat Wednesday, "I think you'll see...
