New Zip Codes for Shaq, 'Sheed, Gordon, Artest and More...

Published July 07, 2009

Free agency opened up not that long ago and already there's been plenty of action between front offices across the league. Even before free agents were open to negotiate, there was movement as Shaquille O'Neal got a change in uniform after being moved from Phoenix to Cleveland to team up with LeBron in the hopes of title number five.

Elsewhere, Ben Gordon and Charlie Villanueva look to be on the move to Detroit while Rasheed Wallace appears to be headed to Boston in the hopes of a title. And we're not even close to being done - the Rockets and Lakers essentially swapped players via free agency as Trevor Ariza agreed to terms with Houston after the Lakers signed Ron Artest - which player ultimately regrets that swap?

Sure, some players such as Mike Bibby and Jason Kidd decided the grass isn't always greener and stayed home, but that didn't stop guys like Hedo Turkoglu from entertaining various offers before deciding on heading to Portland... and ultimately, Toronto.

You can track all of the movement over at NBA.com with their free agent tracker, but more importantly, you can be the first to own the jersey of your favorite player if he finds himself relocating or to get the jersey of the newest addition to your favorite team. How? It's simple.

Did you know that once a trade is official and a player's number is finalized, even if you don't see their jersey live on the site, all you have to do is head over to the custom jerseys? From there you can get any player you want custom made and shipped out within 5-7 business days. It's that easy.

And if your team has been quiet so far, that's no reason to forget about hoops - there are plenty of new items around, including the new summer collection, and there is our Fourth of July clearance event where you can save up to 60% off on select merchandise. So while some may say that not every free agent signing is a smart decision, don't worry, you won't find any thing that doesn't live up to it's billing at NBAStore.com!

The Sixers Get a "New" Look While the Draft Approaches

Published June 25, 2009

Sixersnewlogo

While most teams get ready to add a new face or two to their roster, the Sixers went ahead and gave the franchise a new face, going back to the old "76ers" ball logo from years past and ditching the black, gold and red uniforms of recent years.

The change is one that most Philly fans will welcome with open arms as the days of Dr. J, Charles Barkley and Moses Malone are recalled while a new team tries to live up to the logo that was worn by the 1983 champs. NBAStore.com has all of the newest Sixers gear with the new logo that you can find here in the Sixers team shop. Check it out now!

While the Sixers revamp their look, you can do the same no matter what team you cheer for as the new 2009 draft caps are now available. Wear the hat your newest player(s) will be rockin tonight at Madison Square Garden.

And while this week offers all the excitement of the draft (and the trades surrounding it), we still haven't forgotten about this year's NBA Champions, the Los Angeles Lakers. There are still plenty of items at NBAStore.com to remember the Lakers' 15th NBA title.

Enjoy the draft!

Congratulations to the 2009 NBA Champions - the Los Angeles Lakers

As much as we may not want it to happen, the season has to end some time. And this year, for the fans of the purple and gold, it's ending in style.

The Los Angeles Lakers won the NBA Finals Sunday night, 4-1 over the Orlando Magic with Kobe Bryant taking home the MVP following another ridiculous performance in game 5 (30 points, six rebounds, five assists and even four blocks).

And while the champagne sprayed, Shaq tweeted, and LA celebrated, it's become a time to take in the Lakers season and celebrate it for all of it's success, from Phil Jackson's tenth title to LA's 15th. And NBAStore.com has the best way to celebrate, with all of the official gear that the Lakers used to celebrate themselves.

You can even save by purchasing the official Locker Room tee, hat, towel and commemorative DVD for just $79.99 - a savings of more than 10% off the retail price! Or, you can always buy your favorite items individually or browse the entire champions collection for the item that best suits you or even go as far as cruising through the Lakers team shop.

It's all at NBAStore.com now - and make sure you check back at the store and here at Courtside often (or even subscribe to our RSS feed). The season might be over, but the deals here never are - we'll be doing polls, special offers and more to keep you up to date on the latest and have you ready for the start of the 2009-2010 season!
