The Spurs have kept their core players together for an eternity, in NBA terms. But what about the other guys? Tim Duncan has had more than 100 different teammates through his 16 seasons. Who remembers those other players? Do the current Spurs reme...

On Thursday I wrote about the Timberwolves severing ties with David Kahn, who is generally treated as an NBA laughingstock. My big point: OK, he made some mistakes. But if he's so bad at his job, how come so many other teams have worse rosters? In...

The news from Friday's Board of Governor's meeting was mostly about the Kings. Whether they'll move to Seattle or not, David Stern said, should be known within the next few weeks. But Stern also addressed a range of other topics with big implications...

Before the game, Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau predicted a "cage match." Physicality, in other words, would be Chicago's solution to Miami's big, strong and super-quick LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, who tend to make layup after layup. Good, solid defe...

Kent Smith/NBAE/Getty Images Learning more than ever about the thoughts of an icon. Hanging over All-Star weekend in Houston is Wright Thompson's must-read exploration of Michael Jordan's mind at 50 -- almost certainly the most insightful thing eve...

The blog Drawllin has all kinds of crazy stuff, a lot of which kind of has something or other to do with basketball. You can lose a lot of time trolling around Drawllin. On Sunday, writer Tyler Parker posted something about his deceased grandmothe...

I know, they're manipulative tycoons and all that, but there is something touching about the genuine-seeming friendship between Mikhail Prokhorov and Bruce Ratner. They're on Charlie Rose talking about the Barclays Center and a lot of other stuff, an...

Getty Images Blake Griffin and Vince Carter both entered the NBA as revered high-fliers. Then ... the nitpicking. The other day, bless him, Jalen Rose told one of those "was he supposed to tell that?" kind of stories on Grantland's YouTube channel....

Lots of NBA owners on this Forbes list of the wealthiest Americans. However, here the Knicks' James Dolan doesn't look like the deepest pockets around, and (rhyming alert!) the Lakers' Buss family is nowhere to be found. In other words, who has the u...

Tony Gaskins is a former college football player and current Christian motivational speaker who preaches, among other things, about the perils of pre-marital sex. He stood before a room of 60-or-so players at the NBA Rookie Transition Program on Sund...

David Stern opened the Finals with a press conference that was scathing on the topic of flopping, saying: "Flopping" almost doesn't do it justice. Trickery. Deceit. Designed to cause the game to be decided other than on its merits. We'll be looking ...
