Random News Shit: NBA Edition

Vince
1) Magic Land Vince Carter From Nets For Alston, Lee
At first I thought this didn't make sense, but then I remembered Hedo was opting out of his contract, and I'm guessing Orlando is expect him to come back. Then again, with Carter's contract, I don't think they can afford to bring Hedo back. Its a shame they had to give up Courtney Lee though, he had tons of potential and Vince Carter is semi-washed up. The Magic just made themselves a lot more beatable because 2009 Vince Carter is not 2009 Hedo Turkoglu.

2) Yao Ming's Foot Not Healing, Out Indefinitely
This is HUGE! What if the foot never heals and he has to retire?? That would be devastating to the Rockets franchise, especially with T-Mac on his last limbs in the league. Remember, this is the same foot that Yao has hurt the past few seasons so it not healing is definitely a bad sign. Good luck to Yao.

3) Rondo's Agent Strikes Back At Ainge
Yeah I agree, Danny Ainge should pick his words wisely because he's literally one Kevin McHale gift away from being fired. It makes no sense to disrespect one of the best players on your team in public. None whatsoever.

4) Darko Headed To The Knicks
Darko Milicic will be asked to start over again as he's been shipped off to the Knicks for Quentin Richarson and some cash considerations. We'll see if he can work in D'Antoni's system...but probably not. He's Darko! lol.
