• Ray Allen’s numbers look like a Houston sub

  The Heat signed Ray Allen and got Carlos Delfino. That’s not necessarily an awful thing, since Delfino is having a strong season as a sub for the Rockets. But considering the hype around Allen’s signing — for the same $3 million for this season that Delfino received with no fanfare [...]

• No repeat for Norris Cole in Rising Stars Challenge

  It doesn’t look like either of the Heat’s point guards will participate in All-Star weekend in Houston.
