Drama surrounding NBA guard Lester Hudson
The agent for NBA free-agent guard Lester Hudson said Hudson is no longer a client after failing to show up for a workout with the Charlotte Bobcats.

We let HIM go, Glass said. It happened about a month ago. He...
Memphis Grizzlies must upgrade depth this off-season
By signing their key players to contract extensions the past couple of years, the Memphis Grizzlies have a solid starting five. However, their bench production has been average at best which has held them back a bit. The Griz need to upgrade the talent behind their starters this off-season, but that will be difficult to do since the team has very little cap flexibility in free...
How does Kyrie Irving's rookie year compare to the other great point guards?
Follow @ClevelandDTR
By: Eric Grinnell
The 2011-2012 Cleveland Cavaliers season is officially in the books. The Cavs finished with a record of 21-45, which put them at the bottom of the Central Division, 3rd worst in the Eastern Conference, and tied for the 3rd worst record in the NBA. If you read my Manifesto on the Current Climate of the NBA, you know that I think this is...
Cavs Report: Sloan seems to be getting point
A few random observations following the Cavaliers 114-98 loss in San Antonio on Sunday:
Donald Sloan is proving to be a pretty decent pickup when it comes to backing up starting point guard Kyrie Irving. Sloan seems to understand when to push things and when to set up the half-court offense, never forcing the tempo.
When it comes to the long term, Sloan is probably a better fit...

Box Score: 76ers 103, Cavaliers 87
That’s more like it. It may seem funny feeling ok about a 16 point loss, but in this game the Cavaliers came out and showed some fight, taking just a 4 point deficit into the locker room at the half. Jrue Holliday went off in the 3rd and the Sixers’ talent overtook the Cavaliers, but the Cavaliers at least played hard in this game and showed some pride and spirit in the way they...
On Dan Coughlin, JJ Hickson, Lester Hudson and Luke Harangody
Dan Coughlin wrote a blog for Stepien Rules on Friday. I really can't explain how honored I am by that development without sounding real sentimental and dorky, so I'll just say that I remain very grateful for his time on that. When traditional media was the unequivocal king of sports talk in this town, Dan Coughlin was the star of stars. He still is too. Wherever he goes...
When There’s a Wing, There’s a Way
With six seconds on the clock and his team down two points, Cleveland head coach Bryon Scott called on Lester Hudson. Summoning him to the dry erase board with four of his Cavaliers teammates, Scott drew up the play which would ultimately result in a floating jumper by Hudson that would splash through the net with just over a second remaining, sending the game into overtime.

The Cavaliers saw some improvement this season nonetheless...

On the Cavs, Tanking and Lester Hudson
"Remember Lester, only make game TYING buzzer beaters"
With their the overtime loss to the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday night, the Cavs are officially out of the playoff race. This was expected. The Cavs are in the middle of their rebuild and are in full tank mode.
I wouldn’t consider myself “happy” that the Cavaliers lost, but I do tend to think of these late season...
Hudsanity in Cleveland
It’s amazing how quickly things can change in the NBA. A few weeks ago, Jeremy Lin was the talk of the town. Linsanity was in full swing. The kid was getting shoe deals, standing ovations in Madison Square Garden and a slew of racist headlines. Times were good. But now, it’s like no one knows he even exists anymore. Go under the knife for a necessary knee surgery and your celebrity...
Hudson’s Leaving His Mark In Cleveland
There’s something about an unsung hero that makes winning extremely satisfying.
Maybe it’s the surprise of it all. Maybe it’s the out-of-the-blue extraordinary performances that are displayed by the unexpected—for a team that’s unexpected.
Allowing these unsung heroes to prove themselves is the only pot that the Cleveland Cavaliers can really pick from these days since...

Where’s Lester Hudson’s “Linsanity?”
On February 6, the shorthanded New York Knicks topped the Utah Jazz at home. The team’s two best players were inactive, dealing with various issues ranging from personal to health. The hero of the day — and subsequent weeks — was a hardwood vagabond, a scrappy guard who had been bounced from multiple NBA franchises, left to trudge through the murk and muck of the NBDL.

Quote: Byron Scott No Longer Surprised by Lester Hudson
After you see it for the second game, you don’t really get surprised the third and fourth and fifth game. I know what he is. I know what type of player he is. I know he can put big numbers on the scoreboard given the opportunity. That part of his game I know. The other part is trying to get him to understand (that) on the defensive end he has to get better and I thought tonight...

Hudson bringing life to Cavs
CLEVELAND -- Random observations from the Cavaliers 103-90 win over Charlotte on Tuesday at The Q:
1. Lester Hudson. Those are two words Cavs fans are saying with an exclamation point after watching the 6-foot-3 guard total 51 points in his previous two games. That included a game-high 25 points against the awful Bobcats.
2. What makes this more impressive is how Hudson has done...
The Cleveland Cavaliers Have A Guard Named Lester Hudson
