Paul Gasol is going to Houston and Lamar Odom is going to the Hornets with Kevin Martin, 2 other players and a first round draft pick. We all know that Paul wanted out of New Orleans and wanted to be a Laker or a Knick. Then enter [...]

Talking, celebrating and predicting that you’re going to win seven NBA Championships before you’ve even won one is foolish.
