NBA News for November 17th: Rasheed Wallace wants to get into coaching

Just because the Cavs haven’t already signed Fisher as their backup point guard or another veteran doesn’t mean they’re content with their bench — far from it. If things don’t improve, they haven’t ruled out bringing in a veteran.”

Last night in the #Knicks locker room, @carmeloanthony made it quite clear he wants another shot at the Grizz & Gasol, specifically.

James Ham of Cowbell Kingdom reports on some discontent in the Kings’ locker room: “After another embarrassing loss in front of their home crowd, the Sacramento Kings are beginning to show major cracks. Just nine games into the 2012-13 season, veterans Chuck Hayes and Francisco Garcia (SH note: Jason Jones of the Sacramento Bee says it was John Salmons) called a players’ only meeting last night while media members waited anxiously outside their locker room door. ‘Very frustrated,’ Hayes told Cowbell Kingdom following the loss to Atlanta. ‘We came in with a good mindset, but things are going bad right now and we’re starting to break and we can’t have that.’ The Kings have had a rough 10 days. Suspensions to rookie Thomas Robinson and third-year big man DeMarcus Cousins left the team short-handed and the losses have begun to pile up. ‘Obviously we want people to know that we’re not satisfied with what’s going on,’ forward Jason Thompson told a group of hungry reporters. ‘So we thought it was only right to make each other accountable and say what was on our minds because at the end of the day, when we put our hands together, we say ‘family’ and we mean it.’ “
