STEVEN ADAMS RUMORS & GOSSIP
Spurs scouting Pitt big man Steven Adams?
After a string of picks categorized as draft and stash, the San Antonio Spurs have excelled in recent years turning back end of the first round guys in to rotation players. Tiago Splitter I suppose was a bit of both, then there was George Hill, then DeJuan Blair who was actually a second round pick. More recently Cory Joseph has shown he's at least a back up caliber point...
Panthers regrouping after loss of Adams, Zeigler
Pittsburgh coach Jamie Dixon says he understands why freshman center Steven Adams is heading to the NBA even if he remains a raw talent.
Adams announced Tuesday he would make himself eligible for the draft and plans to sign with an agent. Dixon said Wednesday there were strong family considerations that Adams took into account before making the decision. The 7-footer from New Zealand...

Panthers' promising season ends on familiar note
Jamie Dixon insists he's not going anywhere. The same goes for Steven Adams.
After another March disappointment for Pitt, it's a start.
The Panthers (24-9) bounced back from a miserable 2011-12 season to get back into the thick of the Big East, but the rousing send-off Dixon and company had in mind before moving to the ACC never materialized.
Pitt rallied from a slow start...

Debating Steven Adams
I know it is common in just about every city, but I am not a big fan of the cross-media thing. Where a local columnist also does the radio show. (And by that, I mean, my general problem not specific to a particular guy.) Not because his work suffers or because he isn’t particularly good. It bothers me because every column written takes on an undertone of preparing for a topic on...
Pitt looking Panther-esque once again
Last season’s edition of the Pitt Panthers limped to a 5-13 Big East record and lost in the second round of the league tournament. It wasn’t until the CBI that they were able to get hot and eventually win the tournament and finish with a 22-17 record.
