Puerto Rican promoters had been waiting on signed agreements from 10 of the 18 players expected to play in the [...]

We knew there would not be any defense in last night's Chris Paul charity game, but these guys really put on a show. This was easily the most entertaining of all the lockout games thus far. Each team had over 70 points at halftime, and there were some sick dunks thrown down. My personal favorite [...]

Chris Paul's annual charity all-star game will tip-off in Winston-Salem, N.C. tonight. Scheduled to play are D-Wade, Melo, Lebron, Durantula and more, according to WSSU's athletics website.

The C's Delonte West was among those who packed the gym at DC's Trinity University. This was the closest thing we've had to a real NBA game since June, [...]

Here's some video shot last week from Kendrick Perkins' basketball camp. The attendees, who were also scheduled to play in his celebrity game which was cancelled, included Rondo, Kevin Durant, Stephen Jackson and James Harden. Thanks to my boy Leon for the video.  [...]

On Friday, former Ozen boys basketball player Kendrick Perkins will host a celebrity basketball game featuring five fellow professional basketball players. The game will be held at 1 p.m. [...]

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump.

 Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump. Is LeBron a better all-around player?  Yes.  But Paul Pierce isn't quitting on you in the fourth quarter.  And Pierce has twice out-dueled LeBron, once on his [...]
