Chris Kaman to Boston Celtics rumors continue; buyout possible
Chris Kaman has been mentioned numerous times as a possibility for the Boston Celtics. A trade might not work — the Celtics don’t have many assets, and it’s unlikely they would trade the ones they do in exchange for a two-month rental of a good-but-not-great center (remember, long-term is now the priority) — but A. Sherrod Blakely reports the Celtics are hoping to add Kaman...
Let the Chris Kaman sweepstakes begin
So no trades for the Celtics, but there's a game changer still available.

Report: Kaman staying in New Orleans, won't be bought out
With the NBA trade deadline over, the San Antonio Spurs made a huge splash by acquiring former Spur Stephen Jackson from the Golden State Warriors for Richard Jefferson, T.J. Ford and a first round draft pick in the 2012 NBA Draft.

Earlier today, a report came out that New Orleans...
Why I like the Barbosa trade for the Pacers
Ok, so the Pacers didn't make a big move, but I really liked the one they did make. No Chris Kaman, no Jamal Crawford, no OJ Mayo -- but the Pacers still did well in poaching 6'3" guard Leandro Barbosa from the Toronto Raptors for just a second round pick. A lot of people are indifferent about the trade, but I love it. Allow me to explain why.First of all, the Pacers...
