Share this: Nate Robinson still is playing basketball in the NBA Development League, and he did something Saturday that normally is reserved for elementary school playgrounds. He dribbled through another player’s legs. Not just the ball — Robinson and the ball went through another player’s legs. The other player, Edy Tavares, is 7-foot-3 and came over to trap the 5-foot-9 Robinson, which didn’t go entirely how he planned. Take a look at Robinson’s ridiculous move.

NBA Rumors: Celtics, Bulls ‘Exchanged A Bunch Of Proposals’ On Jimmy Butler
Share this: The Boston Celtics made an effort to land a star before Thursday’s NBA trade deadline, but they couldn’t find a deal to their liking. In the end, the C’s made no trades at all. ESPN.com’s Zach Lowe wrote an excellent piece outlining Boston’s deadline action, including its pursuit of Chicago Bulls star forward Jimmy Butler. “Butler was more obtainable for Boston, and the two sides exchanged a bunch of proposals,” Lowe writes. “The particulars are hard to pin down, but suffice it to say this: Boston could not find a package that left both its present and its future in a place that felt comfortable. Give up too much of the present, and you can’t compete with the big boys. Toss every pick into the
Antonio Valencia: ‘The best right-back in football’?

"I think he is the best right-back you can have," Mourinho said of the 31-year-old Ecuadorian. "There is no better right-back in football. It is a privilege for us to have such a good player and such a good man." While it's no secret where Mourinho's allegiances lie,

Brandon Marshall Admits Idea Of Joining Patriots Would Be ‘Intriguing’
Share this: Is Brandon Marshall headed for the New England Patriots? Probably not, but he wouldn’t say no to the idea. The New York Jets wide receiver’s 11th season in the NFL is ending with a thud, as his team sits at 4-10 with just two games left to go this season. That means Marshall will retain his career-long postseason drought, which is the longest of any active player. For that reason, the New York Daily News’ Manish Mehta wrote that Marshall should join the Patriots should the Jets cut him to free up salary. The 32-year-old wideout didn’t hate the idea, but there is a catch. “That’s intriguing, but that wouldn’t be my team,” Marshall told Mehta. “I would be a rental player.” With 12,033
