PHILADELPHIA — The news keeps getting worse for Andrew Bynum and his bum knee, no matter how optimistic the Sixers are trying to make it sound. [Read more…]

SH Blog: Kidd-Gilchrist looking good in Charlotte
When Charlotte drafted Michael Kidd-Gilchrist second overall in the 2012 NBA Draft, they expected to see a lot of nights like the one he had on Saturday in the Bobcats 101-97 overtime victory over the Dallas Mavericks. It’s no secret that the rookie out of Kentucky has the quickness and agility to get to the rim at the NBA level; through three games he has gotten into the paint for 6.6 of his 9.2 shots per game.

Nash and D’Antoni Reunited; Grizzlies Burn Heat
It won’t be a Phil Jackson encore after all. Mike D’Antoni is the new coach of the Lakers. A friend of Kobe Bryant and the perfect choice to revive Steve Nash once his leg heals, he’s also a hero to fantasy owners like me who rode his fast-paced Suns and Knicks teams to a league championship or two. Last night, with interim coach Bernie Bickerstaff calling the shots, Dwight Howard scored 23 points and grabbed 18 rebounds against a Kings team
Cousins suspended two games for confronting Sean Elliott, Spurs broadcaster
DeMarcus Cousins was suspended for two games by the NBA for confronting Spurs broadcaster Sean Elliott two nights ago in Sacramento, postponing the first meeting between the two best centers in the Western Conference. Jason Thompson started at center for the Kings as they faced the Lakers, who continued to woo Phil Jackson but were covering their bases by interviewing other candidates, including Mike D’Antoni and Mike Dunleavy, to replace the fired Mike Brown. So what exactly happened between Cousins and Elliott? From
SH Blog: Phil Jackson wants to skip some road games, plus more NBA news
The Phil Jackson saga is dominating the headlines in the NBA world this weekend, and thus it is, of course, dominating today’s blog. For a primer on the Lakers/Jackson situation, check out yesterday’s blog. But if you happen to be a fan of one of the other 29 NBA teams, don’t worry, we’ve still got you covered, in today’s blog as well as elsewhere on SH. We’ve got a rundown of all of last night’s games and top performers, and a
Tweet of the Day: Jonathan Feigen
Harden has been unavailable twice in 3 days; Asik for 3 straight weeks. This on a team in which Hakeem did every interview for 17 years. — Jonathan Feigen (@Jonathan_Feigen) November 11, 2012 I expect the folks at NBA Communications are going to raise a little fuss with the Rockets. The league actually has media access rules, and although they are openly flaunted by a majority of the 30 teams, a crackdown can happen if it gets out of control. Harden isn’t doing
Sheridan Hoops MVP Rankings After Week Two
Special mention atop this column is deserved for Andre Iguodala, Nicolas Batum and Tony (SLJW) Allen, three of the league’s best man-on-man defenders who all had a chance to guard James Harden over the past week. Not that Harden is a marked man or anything, but after going for 37 and 45 in his first two games — and earning the No. 1 ranking in last week’s edition of these rankings — the guy should strike a personal endorsement deal with
Hubbard: Of Cowboys, Lakers and Jerry Buss
When the NBA lockout was announced in the summer of 2011, I was driving the streets of Dallas and checking out the three sports radio stations in the area. I listened briefly to each one to get their take on the major news of the day and then called my basketball cohort Mike Monroe in San Antonio. “Guess what the three sports radio stations are discussing?” I said. “Not the lockout?” wondered Monroe. “Hardly.” “Well then what?” “Two of the three are in animated discussions
