Marbury's new team
Earlier this month, Sports Illustrated conducted a poll with 190 NBA players, whom were asked which NBA player would they least like to have on their team and Kobe Bryant tied for third place. Ironically, on Tuesday the same group of players were asked which NBA player would they most like to have on their team and Kobe placed second with 13% of the vote.

Chris Paul has been as excellent as ever this season, but he has not been mentioned in the MVP race like he was during the 2007-08 season due to the Hornets record.

Deron Williams
Daily Illini reports that Utah point-guard Deron Williams may be a part of the U.S. Men’s Olympic Basketball team in London 2012.
Together with Jerry Colangelo, managing director of USA Basketball, Deron was honored at halftime of the Illinois alumni game Saturday night.
NBA Rumors was created by three college grads who played Division III NCAA basketball for Berkeley College. Back then, basketball was our life. A day did not go by without us talking about what was going on in the NBA.
Today, we are all working in our respective industries in Midtown Manhattan. And two years after we graduated, basketball started to fall out of our radar as we started spending more time in the office and less time on the court. Therefore, we created this blog to reunite our passion for the love of NBA and basketball across the world.
We hope that you will enjoy our blog. We are intensively working on our coffee breaks to bring you the best rumors that the NBA has to offer.
Sincerely,
Darjan Milojkovic
