Saw this on hoopshype..

The NBA is preparing to double down on policing its players, teams and staff amid the expansion of legalized sports gambling in the United States, deputy commissioner Mark Tatum told ESPN.


So still no policing then! Two times zero is still zero isn't it?

Nunnally to the Rockets. I'll bet my entire nest egg that he will be consistently raining down 3's as a regular rotation player in the near future....especially when they play us.

I thought it was more interesting that House turned down a three year guaranteed deal to remain on his two way deal. Some of these players (shabazz) are either really stupid, or getting bad advice from their agents.

How David Stern and the NBA escaped the Donaghy fiasco nearly entirely unscathed remains truly remarkable...

At the time Donaghy was employed by the NBA... the officiating was one of the most discussed and controversial subjects in the game.

So when one of the officials gets popped for betting on games... and the league avoids any further inquiry or serious questions... remarkable.

House clearly thought one way or another he could make more money than the bare minimum salary the Rockets were offering. The Rockets May yet cave to a better deal for House.

Meanwhile Nunnally goes to a team with need for a wing...House was starting and Nunnally profiles as a very good shooter. Just stand and watch Harden and be ready if he passes to you. I'd guess he is gonna play. Those 10 day deals are nice gigs if you can get them and this one looks REALLY good.

No body needs wings more then us. Tolliver is our backup 3! No other team in the league would dare play him at the 3...

The Milwaukee Bucks are fun to watch. They have another good one coming up in DJ Wilson.

What are you seeing from him cool? I think a number of folks including me were wondering if he was gonna be anything? I had seen a couple recent games he played and had a plenty solid stat line. I was intruiged by him coming out of college sort of like how so was intruiged with Trey Lyles although they had different skill sets.

I'm seeing a big body that is agile and can really move for his size. He's showing a nice touch from the 3, plays very good defense, and seems to have good basketball instincts. His problem is staying healthy. I wish the Wolves could find a guy like that in the mid teens of the draft.

Thanks for the feedback Cool. I remember the knock on him coming out of college was poor rebounding. I thought he played on the perimeter so...there was some explanation but a fair criticism also. In his NBA career it's a small sample size for both seasons but he has doubled his rebounding rate from last year. 10 per 36 ain't too shabby.
