Carmelo Anthony has lots of options. Melo could sign a monster contract extension with the Nuggets, try to create a Melo-Chris Paul-Amare Stoudemire trio in New York (with a trade possibly happening before next season), or maybe even push for a Melo-Kobe Bryant package with the Lakers. And is a…
Back when former Bronco Brandon Marshall was considering leaving Denver, the Denver Post posited that it was because he was haunted by the 2007 murder of teammate Darrent Williams.

In recent days, we’ve been musing about Melo. Will Carmelo Anthony re-sign with the Nuggets? Join Chris Paul and Amare Stoudemire in New York? Team up with Kobe Bryant on the Lakers? Now, however, a system set up by two economists suggests that Melo’s not all he’s cracked up to…

The basketball world has been debating where Carmelo Anthony might land next season if Melo doesn’t re-up with the Nuggets. Right now, the most popular possibility (well behind a potential Melo-sign-and-trade deal with the L.A. Lakers) involves a Melo-Chris Paul-Amare Stoudemire team-up in New York.

Lakers has been floated in recent days, the likeliest departure scenario continues to revolve around a Melo-Amare Stoudemire-Chris Paul team-up for the New York Knicks in 2011. But could that situation be circumvented by luring Chris Paul to Denver…

At last night’s ESPY awards, Nuggets coach George Karl won the Jimmy V Award for Perseverance — and he didn’t use his time at the microphone to mumble platitudes about Karl’s cancer fight, which kept him off the team’s bench for the final (and key) part of last season. Instead,…
Ubaldo Jimenez held the American League scoreless during the two innings he spent on the mound at last night’s All-Star game, contributing to the National League’s first win since the outcome established home-field advantage in the World Series.

New York Yankees owner George Steinbrenner, who died today, was among the most colorful characters in all of sports — so much so that the satire of him perpetrated by the folks at Seinfeld sometimes seemed less loony than the genuine item. But did you know Steinbrenner almost wound up…
Not many wedding toasts make headlines — but Chris Paul’s salute to Carmelo Anthony and bride Lala Vasquez at their weekend nuptials was definitely an exception.
