NBA News
Is this how it will likely be for Parsons for the rest of
his career in Houston or at least for as long as he keeps returning wearing the
blue jersey of the Mavericks?
This is the question that is on many people’s minds as
Parsons returned to the Toyota Center to play against his former team. The fans
showed hostility towards the former Rocket as they booed him each time he had
the ball.
Parsons indicated that his former team the Rockets, were not
willing to offer him a good enough contract for him to stay with them. The
player was offered a more lucrative contract worth about $46 Million by the
Mavericks. Players’ contractual disputes always make NBA News and Parsons is by
no means the last NBA player to find himself in this kind of situation.

In another story that made NBA News, NBA commissioner Adam
Silver needs a wing man to help his bid to get sports betting legalized in the
United States, Mark Cuban is just a text message or phone call away.
The following is taken from an interview that Silver did
with the New York Times as his remarks made the latest NBA News.
“I agree 100 percent,” Cuban said Saturday night before his
Mavs played the Rockets at the Toyota Center. “I think we’re the world’s
biggest hypocrites when we say, ‘Oh, we don’t want you betting on our games,’
and then we get all excited about the sports betting line and people go to
Vegas on trips won from the NBA or NFL. I mean, it’s hugely hypocritical.
“I just think that Adam did the exact right thing. I think
by focusing on the federal regulations and making the changes there, that it
will change. It’s just a question of when. I think over the next three to five
years, it will change.”
“All you’ve got to do is look overseas,” Cuban said. “You
can go and legally bet on the NBA in the U.K. and a bunch of other countries,
and they’re actually big customers of NBA video.
“It’s crazy that we allow it in the rest of the world but
it’s really upsetting that sports leagues don’t think Americans are good enough
to gamble on our sports, but the rest of the world is. That’s un-American.”
NBA News
A scoring error was
made during the Milwaukee Bucks-Toronto Raptors game on Nov. 21 at Air Canada
Centre, which impacted the final score of the game but not the final outcome of
the game. The announcement, which made NBA News, was made on Saturday by the
association.
John Henson was incorrectly credited with a 3-point field
goal when he made a jump shot in the lane with 1:44 remaining in the fourth
quarter. The final score of the game is
Toronto 124, Milwaukee 82 after the game’s statistics were corrected. Henson,
who has made NBA News before, saw his scoring total changed to six points in
the official box score as a result of this.
NBA News
Players’ injuries always make NBA News. Jose Calderon is no
exception as making his season debut Saturday for the New York Knicks after
missing the first 13 games with a strained right calf.
Calderon is in the starting line-up against the Philadelphia
76ers and we are hoping that he will give a performance that will make NBA News
on his debut.

The
suspension given to Charlotte's Jeffery Taylor by Commissioner Adam Silver is
in the latest NBA News. ''Excessive, without precedent and a violation of the Collective
Bargaining Agreement'' is how the suspension was described by the executive
director of the NBA Players Association.
Taylor made
NBA News after being suspended for 24 games without pay on Wednesday. The forward pleaded guilty last month to
misdemeanor domestic violence assault and malicious destruction of hotel
property. Taylor will lose nearly $200,000 of his $915,000 salary this season.
According
to the league, Taylor will get credit for the 11 games he has missed, and will
sit out an additional 13 for a total which is slightly more than one-fourth of
the league's 82-game schedule.

In other
NBA News:"I was feeling good, I think the best I've felt in the NBA,"
Rubio said Thursday, almost two weeks after severely spraining his left ankle
in a game against Orlando on Nov. 7. I
was feeling like I'd found my tempo. I was leading the team. But it's something
that happened, you can't take it back. Just have to get back as soon as
possible to help the team and feel that way again."
This is
what Rubio said in a interview that he did after getting injured and making NBA
News again.
Rubio
signed a four-year, $55 million extension on Oct. 31 and then had 17 assists in
a loss to Chicago the next night before collecting 14 points, 12 assists and
eight rebounds in a win over Brooklyn to start a six-game road trip on Nov. 5.

York in February during All-Star weekend.

will be held Feb. 13-15 at Baruch College and feature the top 40 players born
in 1997 from Africa, the Americas, Asia/Pacific and Europe. They will work with
NBA, WNBA, and international players and coaches.
Basketball

in 2001 and has been held in 19 countries on five continents. There have been
33 campers who went on to be drafted by NBA teams.

charitable work that they do off it as well.
NBA News
An ambiguously
titled sneaker which has the No. 3 - Iverson's number - on each back heel and
the red, white and blue colors of the Philadelphia 76ers has made the latest
NBA News. Neither Iverson nor the Sixers are named on the sneaker or on the
branding for the shoe, which were expected to be released later this year or in
early 2015.
Iverson's
lawyer sent a letter to Nike this week objecting to the shoe.
Nike
spokesman KeJuan Wilkins said in a statement Thursday that the version of the
shoe Iverson protested won't hit stores.
The retired
player who made NBA News throughout his career protested against the new
sneaker because of a contract which he signed with Reebok, a rival company to
Nike.
