Coming off last night's loss to the Grizz, we head further South to Dallas to play the Mavericks . KC Johnson reports Kirk will be back from his suspension but Rose, Noah and Deng are still going to sit out. Worringly, he says Taj's foot acted up, so he's only "probable". Gotta give Taj some credit for playing on an injury that most guys don't play on. I somewhat wish the Bulls would shut...

Stop me if you've heard this one; a seven-foot tall Australian with a "bust" label, a (barely) 6'1" Comptonite who can't shoot, and a head coach who was once fired on Christmas Eve walk into the Cousins' Center, and... As of yet, there is no punchline to this joke. But as a fanbase, we're used to the ending being seriously unfunny, no matter how laughable the on-court product demonstrated...

"Sit the hell down, Joe Alexander!" The New York Knicks: As an organization, the Bricks have made no secret about their desire to lure LeBron James to the Big Apple. They want LeBron the same way a fat person wants a giant sandwich covered in gravy, frosting and other, smaller sandwiches. But rather than building a competitive team for King Crab to push over the top, the Bricks -- now 20-39...

[Thanks to Cosmis for today's game preview -ed. ] Noah is out, again (sort of a given after he didn't travel with the team to New York.) The Bulls look to take another step on the road to a first round exit playoff berth, and welcome four new players in Minnesota. Coming off of a home -and- home sweep of the woeful Knicks , and even more woeful Minnesota team is just what the doctor ordered. Most Important...

Bill Walker and a few others are unlikely to play in the D-League again. View full size photo » Scott already has touched on the trade that sent the Milwaukee Bucks /Fort Wayne Mad Ants' Joe Alexander to Chicago, but I was really struck by how many of yesterday's deals involved players that we here at RU are familiar with - Alexander, Joey Dorsey , J.R. Giddens and Bill Walker all got traded...

I was incorrect on the first rounder coming from Charlotte, as though they potentially owe a first-rounder already through 2014, apparently they can trade another pick conditionally contingent on when they give up their initial pick (it can't be the very next year as you have to have one first-rounder in consecutive years). Per ChicagoNow , the pick is first available in in 2012 and is lottery-protected,...

Even the Milwaukee Bucks, although not a serious playoff contender, decided to make a pair of trades as the trading deadline elapses soon. The team, according to the Asssociated Press, sent forwards Hakim Warrick and Joe Alexander to the Chicago Bulls for John Salmons. The second deal involved sending guard Jodie Meeks and center Francisco Elson to [...]

More photos » Gary Dineen - NBAE/Getty Images Salmons in, Hakim out Browse more photos » Are we done yet? I think so. Two trades in the span of 24 hours sees four players shipped out and three players (and three 2nd round picks) heading to Milwaukee. No huge names in or out, but for the most part John Hammond made the Bucks somewhat better today without making them any worse in the future....

While this isn't in the realm of the other big deals that went down during today's NBA trade deadline bonanza, it was the only one that directly involved a current D-League player....

MILWAUKEE – Carlos Delfino scored 24 points, and rookie Brandon Jennings had 18 points and a career-high 13 assists, leading the Milwaukee Bucks to a 127-94 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Saturday night. Minnesota has lost seven of eight and 12 of 14. The Bucks had lost six of eight games coming into the game, and coach Scott Skiles called it "a must win" before the game. His team did not...
