  Why there’s a 100 percent chance the NBA lottery is fixed 

  The NBA lottery is fixed. There’s no question about it. Just as last year’s draft order was determined by a David Stern-led conspiracy, this year’s will be determined the same way. Think about it. If the NBA lottery really were legitimate, why not conduct the draw publically rather than in a back room? If the…

  Andrew Wiggins would be the No. 1 pick this year. Kansas lucks out. 

  The NBA’s much-ridiculed one-and-done rule was not meant for guys like Andrew Wiggins. It was meant to protect owners from themselves and draft picks like Leon Smith or Darius Miles (and a host of others). We can make the a good argument that even with an extra year NBA teams still make some pretty bad…

  Kyrie Irving / Who’s Better: Stephen Curry Or Kyrie Irving? 

  While many will argue Stephen Curry has always been a star — he does have career averages of 19.2 points and 6.1 assists a night as one of the greatest shooters any of us have ever seen — ankle issues and a lack of national exposure have kept him from the limelight (and the All-Star [...]The post Who’s Better: Stephen Curry Or Kyrie Irving? appeared first on Dime Magazine (dimemag.com) : Daily NBA News, NBA Trades, NBA Rumors, Basketball Videos, Sneakers.

  Report: Cavaliers also have interest in O.J. Mayo 

  Does it feel to anyone else like somebody’s agent/manager/people are trying to pump up O.J. Mayo’s free agency options? With the playoffs and draft coming up there tends not to be a lot of focus on free agents not named Howard or CP3 (and they aren’t likely moving on), yet now we have our second…

  Now that Tracy McGrady has played in the second round, who’s the best active player never to do so? 

  Ten years after he said “It feels good to get in the second round,” Tracy McGrady finally played in the second round of an NBA playoff series. Now a role player with the Spurs, McGrady played the final 51 seconds of San Antonio’s Game 2 loss Wednesday. He never led a team to the second…

  Is Dwight Howard Really a Flight Risk for the Lakers? 

  

  Dwight Howard and the Los Angeles Lakers have entered unchartered territory.

  Never before has Howard, an unrestricted free agent, had the option of choosing where he will play. Not like this. Even when he forced his way out of Orlando, he wasn’t sent to his first destination of choice (Brooklyn Nets). For the Lakers, they’re never used to being on the receiving end of what Dwight can potentially do. Who willingly leaves the Lakers? Nobody.

  But will Howard?

  So much is being made of his impending free agency that is seems like a foregone conclusion that he will at least ...

  Video proof Kyrie Irving can pretty much own a college pickup game 

  Monday afternoon Kyrie Irving wanted to play a little pickup ball, so he strolled into the gym at Montclair State University in Jersey. Yes, he was the best player on the court. Give a couple of those defenders credit for cutting off his baseline drives, but like many an NBA defender discovered if you do that…

  Kyrie Irving / Kyrie Irving Crashes A College Court & Destroys The Pickup Game Competition 

  No more evidence is necessary to proclaim Kyrie Irving as the NBA’s ultimate showstopper. We know that already. So when you put Uncle Drew up against some ballers and students at an open run at Montclair State University, what happens next is downright ugly. Watch as Irving hands out buckets, buckets and more buckets. What [...]The post Kyrie Irving Crashes A College Court & Destroys The Pickup Game Competition appeared first on Dime Magazine (dimemag.com) : Daily NBA News, NBA Trades, NBA Rumors, Basketball Videos, Sneakers.

  Cavaliers assistant Nate Tibbetts to interview for Bobcats coaching job 

  General Manager Rich Cho and the Charlotte Bobcats face some additional challenges in getting a coach — the top-flight assistants out there are hesitant to take over a bad team with no great young prospects in a small market. Michael Jordan as an owner is not a job. For example, the Bobcats reportedly offered their…
