Newly acquired Trevor Ariza(notes) will wear No. 1 [...]

The Darfur Dream Team enlists athletes to help raise funds for schools in Chad for Darfur refugees in a sister school program with schools in the United States. The documentary "3 Points" follows McGrady on his trip to Sudan and Chad in the summer of 2007.

An NBA source has told the Orlando Sentinel that the Orlando Magic will match the five-year, $34-million offer sheet extended by the Dallas Mavericks to Marcin Gortat and thus retain him. The team would not be able to trade him until Dec. 15, at the earliest, if that's what the team wants to d

Anthony Parker officially signed with the Cavs, had a press conference today. Should be a solid bench player.

A) We now still have our MLE
B) We have an amazing great trading piece in Erick Dampier
C) Worst case scenario, Dirk is starting center with Marion - JH5 - JET - Kidd <3. Wow, that's hawt

Mine are T-Mac (magic), VC (raptors), Ray Allen (sonics), Larry Hughes (cavs), Darius Miles (cavs).
The only current one I have is Greg Oden.

here's an interesting tidbit i just read.

with the salary cap going down, the max is gonna lose like 7.7M.
if Bosh, LeBron, and Wade want to stay, they should sign the extension now and not next year

In a way you have to feel bad for Gortat. He wanted PT, he loved what he saw in Dallas, now he's going back to Orlando to get paid over 6 million dollars a year to play 12-13 MPG
Gortat, who is in his native Poland, is "very, very disappointed," Zucker said.
