Bernstein: Shut Up, Vinny
Del Negro was a curious choice from the outset in Chicago, where he believed a warmed-over Jim Valvano impersonation constituted coaching.
Wisch: Crying Foul On The Derrick Rose Blame Game
While I’m not a doctor – and didn’t even stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night – I’m of the school of thought that if Rose’s ACL was going to blow out, then it was going to blow out.
Bernstein: Bulls-Knicks Playoff Matchup Could Be Fun
No need to be too concerned about the outcome, really, since one made free-throw at the end of regulation flips the script.
Politician Says No NBA On Christmas
While most basketball fans simply can’t wait for Christmas Day to get their NBA fix, one politician isn’t as thrilled.
Muller: Miss NBA Basketball? Blame Stern

Schuster: Will The NBA Return Next Week Or Are We Being Teased Again?
If any of you have followed me on the station, or Facebook or Twitter you know that I am a die hard hoops junkie. All levels of the sport are cool but the ultimate for me is the NBA and I have been going crazy without it during this prolonged lockout.
NBA Players: Plan B If No Season
As it seems more and more likely the players will not take the owners’ recent 50-50 revenue split, the likelihood of there being a season will continue to drop, but that doesn’t mean the ball will stop bouncing for LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Carmelo Anthony, and others.
