The NBA announced Wednesday that they are eliminating the center position from the All-Star lineup.  And in other news, Nets opening game tickets are $800 on average.

Hoopsvibe's quick call:  The times, they are a changin' in the National Basketball Association.

Cavs star Kyrie Irving will be sidelined for a month; while Pau Gasol's return could be right around the corner.

Hoopsvibe's quick call:  The Lakers are in good position to make a playoff run; the Cavs probably wouldn't have made the postseason with Irving; they are definitely out now.
