Mark Cuban was insistent on his belief that the New Orleans Hornets got smoked in the trade for all star point guard Chris Paul. In an interview with ESPN, Cuban had this to say: “It’s not about being better or worse,” Cuban said when asked to compare the offers for Paul. “It’s hard to judge any trade until it’s done.

Clippers position themselves for a big win against NBA champion Mavericks, but Caron Butler's potential game-winning shot hits front of rim, and Dallas wins 96-92. L.A. settles for 4-2 mark on trip.Reporting from Dallas -- It was the end of a six-game trip, and the Clippers were facing defending NBA champion Dallas in a city where they haven't won since April 19, 2006.

Aside from the Clippers and the teams that did not want to see the Lakers improve, there were very few people who were pleased with the way the NBA handled the Chris Paul trade.

Not only that, but he forced his way off of a team that happens to be owned by the...

Every time one of their former players comes to town with another team, they hold a nice little ceremony to give the guy his ring. That happened again with Caron Butler last...

Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, who was vocal in his opposition to the proposed trade that would have sent Chris Paul to the Lakers, still doesn't think the NBA-owned Hornets ended up with a decent deal.

Chris Paul confirmed that he’s been leading the recruitment of JR Smith, and as the mercurial swingman prepares to return to the USA, CP3 says the chances of the two re-uniting in LA are “very high” (with Smith seeming to indicate on Twitter that this is, indeed, the case.) From ESPN: “The New York Knicks are the presumptive favorites to sign free-agent...

It’s no secret that the Los Angeles Clippers are one of the teams aggressively pursuing JR Smith’s services – Smith is expected to leave China this week – and according to an ESPN report, point guard Chris Paul is leading the charge: “The Clippers were interested in Smith even before the season-ending injury to Chauncey Billups last week, believing they could use more offensive...

Mark Cuban believes Shawn Marion deserves serious consideration as a Defensive Player of the Year candidate.

DALLAS (AP) — Dirk Nowitzki scored 22 points, 11 in the final 6-plus minutes, Shawn Marion added 16, and the Dallas Mavericks held on to beat the Los Angeles Clippers 96-92 on Monday night.
