How is everyone doing today I'm here with some news and some rumors that's going on in the NBA right now. I want to remind everyone that the 2010 NBA Draft is tonight so don't miss it I think we know John Wall will go first but what about everyone else. Make sure you tune in tonight @7 Eastern time ESPN.
Now other then the draft this week there has also been other things going on in the league like the trade that went down between the Golden State Warrior and the Milwaukee Bucks. Cory Maggette and a second pick went to the Bucks for Charlie Bell and Dan Gudzuric. Nice trade for both teams the Bucks get a solid basketball player and the Warriors get a solid big man in Gudzuric and a good player to back up Curry in Bell. Last week the 76ers sent Samual Dalembert to the Kings for there center Spencer Hawes and forward Andres Nocioni. The Kings get a good big man who can rebound and block shots and also who's contract is done after the 2010-2011 season. Also in other trades new the Miami Heat sent Daequan Cook and the 18th pick in this year draft to the Oklahoma City Thunder for their 32th pick. So yeah they drop in the draft but the important thing is they saved money and that means more money to spend on this years free agents.
There a lot of rumors going on in the NBA these days. The Hornets and Chris Paul are now open to trade offers for the All-Star. To me that's crazy its no way you would even think about trading one of the top 3 point guards in the NBA. I wouldn't trade him away because to me its no one in the league with Chris Paul value other then LeBron and they don't have the money to land him. There is talk already that Chris Paul along with James Posey could be trade to Orlando for Jameer Nelson and Vince Carter. Paul and Howard in Orlando together would be great for the Magic for the next 8-10 years. The Magic were also talking to the Wizards and sending Carter there for Arenas. The Indiana Pacers are also in the market for a point guard. Its been rumored they are looking at George Hill from the Spurs, Darren Collison from the Hornets and some others. Teams that are looking for points will have to trade or sign one because this years draft is big man heavy. I'm sure you all know that the Cavs are in talk with Byron Scott for their coaching vacancy in hopes to pull LeBron back to Cleveland. Shaq said he isn't done yet, its been rumored that he wants to go to Dallas and play there this upcoming season. Finally I'm going to leave you with the possibility of Phil Jackson, the greatest NBA Coach of all time, retiring. Maybe Jackson should retire or take some time off and get his health better. Phil has nothing to prove he has 11 NBA titles, most in NBA History, so what else it there to do. Now do the Lakers need him back yes that Laker team is built to play for Phil.
