Re: NBA TRADES AND F.A. SIGNINGS TRACKER

Ron Artest changed his name to Metta World Peace.

It's not actually official yet but it probably will be come August, unless a judge finds reason to deny the request.

I hope it happens.Just because it will show how much more he is not right in the head.

he just started to file about his name.. I think that was his last name and would put at the back of his jersey

I have George Hill's autograph so I hope he becomes a star in Indiana!

HaHa!!Really.I saw him at a hip hop concert.He was about 10 feet away from me.I was going to get his autograph but it looked like there were too many people asking for it.He looked like he wanted to punch somebody in the face because he wanted to enjoy the show and not get asked for autographs.

Oh yeah i can see where he's coming from. People ask for my autograph all the time.

Kings send Casspi, future draft pick to Cavs for Hickson

Looks like Alonzo Gee has his work cut out for him.

Last deal before the lockout, which goes into effect shortly.

FML lockout

Well,it looks like this season has gone to shit or half of the season.I am leaning towards a full season though.

Hopefully they'll work things out sooner rather than later. Unfortunately it seems both sides are still a long way apart.

Trading Hickson is toughest decision for the Cavs lol. Goodbye Hickson!

Man im not diggin that trade I'll get em back in 2k12...That trade gets #NOswagg!! points from me..

what was the lockout really mean? I really can't understand what is going on with that.. will the 2011-2012 season still continue?

Casspi trated to Cavs!!
but damn.. i hate this lock out!

Jhiane It just means that no one will be playing basketball until David Stern and the NBAPA can figure out a way to reduce the payments of players inorder for revenue to generate.
to keep it short and simple everyone takes a 1/3 paycut..

but will the 2011-2012 season be continue? Is it final and official? Is there any way to resolve it?

More likely but the games will be reduced from 82 to 50.. yes its official only way to resolve it is if they come to an agreement..

If the lockout will be there, it means that there will no airings of live coverage of the games?

Not sure...

If there are no games being played, then there's nothing to air. Until they work out a new agreement between the owners, the league and the players, there'll be no season, nor offseason for that matter.

First football now basketball

I would not worry about the NFL.They will be back in time.

OMG that is big news. I probably could have called it since he has been plagued with injury though.
