LeBron the 'elephant' in Cavs' room
Well, that was odd. It's one thing to bring back a deposed coach for a second chance. The Memphis Grizzlies profited from such a move with Lionel Hollins.

How to motivate a Mamba? It's a done deal for Lakers' Kobe Bryant
A couple of months ago, Kobe Bryant and I sat down over coffee in Minneapolis to discuss his future.

Lakers' balloon 'popped' with Kobe Bryant injury

Lakers weren't strong enough to protect Kobe Bryant from himself
Earlier this season, when Kobe Bryant was in the middle of a mindless streak during which he played at least 40 minutes in 10 consecutive games, his coach could only laugh about it. "I told him they'll put a statue of him at Staples [Center] but it...

Magic's Al Harrington has no plans to retire
Magic F Al Harrington didn't endure a grueling comeback to disappear into the shadows. "I can't go out like this. I just can't," he told me. "Not this way." Harrington, 33, said he is not ready to retire from the NBA. He wants to go out on his own...

No need for papal conclave: Paul and Howard will be staying in L.A.

He's just the man to lead the Lakers: Phil for president
