When I first got the alert this afternoon, I realized something was kind of fishy for a coach/GM to resign at this part of the off-season. Your first thoughts are either major personal problems or some kind of impropriety.

My favorite competition is the Three-Point Shootout, but one of the events consistently gaining in popularity is the Shooting Stars competition, which brings together a NBA star, a WNBA star and a NBA legend.
