Is it just vets themselves, or vets that can still ball? Prince and Big Ben could still share some knowledge. Outside of those two though, there isn't much.

On ESPN.com they just pulled the Demarcus Cousins story. It was on the front page and everything too.

Some real vets man... some you can respect...not some young dudes who's been in the league just a few years

That's one problem with the NBA right now

I got excited to read it because that was the first I heard of him "demanding a trade" and right when I clicked it said File not Found. So I guess your right and was a false alarm.

Yahoo had a guy reporting it too. There has to be something going on if he is not even in the arena tonight.
