  • lebron iv's are great
  • I'm wondering if I should sell some stocks. hey, i mean you can't go wrong booking some money, but i'll be honest ... all of us are pretty awestruck by what stocks have been up to. it's some completely parabolic shit, although they're starting to…
  • He said some funny shit this morning during a speech in the rose garden, about how China is going to want "American beef. They want it, and they're going to like it" or something to that effect. My head actually jerked up from my breakfast to see …
  • don't get it wrong though - conley is very high on draft boards in his own right. he'll likely go top-10 based on his tournament performance and portland trying to go after him isnt just to appease oden ... it just so happens that oden's best frien…
  • So his choice is retirement with full pay or sit on the bench for full pay or take a less than full buy out and try his luck elsewhere. Is that right? yup. this isn't the nfl - he's fully guaranteed 100% of his contract the moment he signs it. …
  • He has one of the all-time weirdest decisions to make. If he quits now dude to a career ending knee injury, he is allowed to keep all of the remaining money in his contract which is something on the order of 25 million. If opts to play then he rol…
  • jesus, either darius got swoll while he was rehabbing the knee or just gave up and stopped taking care of his body .. but damn, he used to be rail thin. i dont think he's a bad dude, just very immature and if he ever 'gets it' it might be too la…
  • oh word? Seems like bigs (Euro or Domestic) are making more noise in the draft these days than guards. true, the prevailing mentality around the league is starting to shift as more and more teams realize that taller men do in fact play with an adv…
  • hell yeah boy ... i was so excited to find a nice OG copy of this (and the money jungle, actually) in st louis on my way up to new york. great great album. i havent listened to these in several years, but back in the day i was enamored with …
  • Yea, Brian McKnight can play. And although not a musician, Erkell from that show.... wait, steve urkel or stephon urkelle? justin timberlake can play a little. that shit at the all star game in the 3-on-3 when he blew by kenny smith was hila…
  • O'Neal > Camby My boy Blocks shots as well and scores in the low post. Camby is a great defensive dude but u cant ask him to be the second option on offense behind K.O.B.E. Jermaine would give L.A. a true Post Threat. it would be both. odom…
  • Larry Hughes = Smush Parker at this point. Seriously--what happened to dude? well looking at it objectively the story of his career has been injuries and playing well short of his potential. he put together one outstanding season in washington …
  • bruce bowen wouldn't be half the "defender" he is if the refs didn't obviously officiate him differently from every other player in the league whether they'll let that fly against lebron in the finals .... i dont know scary to think how good lebr…
  • looks like marc stein just wrote an article that sums up a lot of the shit i was saying earlier http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/columns/story?columnist=stein_marc&page=KobeTradeRequest-070530 this summer is gonna be wild
  • Re-sign Deng and throw in P.J. Brown for cap purposes maybe. It seems more doable than any other proposition I've heard so far pj brown's contract already expired. Is there anything the Knicks could offer that comes anywhere close to that value t…
  • You would do the trade for Deng, Thomas, and the Knicks #1 though, right? That sounds better than Vince Carter and Marcus Williams. Vince would probably sell more tickets though. not even close to working, salary-wise. kobe makes $88M over the …
  • KOBE TO THE KNICKS get it done
  • His High School backcourt mate, Bracey Wright, went to Indiana and is now at the end of some NBA bench(if he's even still in the league). minnesota
  • but alas, tyson doesn't fit into their long-term plans and had to get traded - no seven-footers allowed! and, dude, if you think the bulls don't miss curry right now then i don't know what to say. okay, fine, he doesn't play defense, but the bulls…
  • major size difference, and pierce scores in ways gordon can't - esp. in the post. gordon is a fucking midget. he's totally in over his head in a playoff series against a team with a legitimate 6'7" shooting guard. he needs to be a sixth man. I h…

  • or, instead of going the PF route, i'm convinced they could have traded pj brown, gordon, and the knicks' pick to boston for pierce. that would have worked for them.
  • I feel you. How fast do u expect the change to happen though? Im mean the Bulls werent even a threat 2 sesons ago and now youve improved. the problem is that their trade prospects have deteriorated significantly .... all the talk of gasol, KG, e…
  • Aldridge has a great upside but u cant tell me if he was a Bull they would be contenders. So either way its a limited situation. U should feel good that u were able to change the culture. Bring in a Championship level defender to teach the kids tha…
  • They have no equivalent to Tashawn (or shoud I say Tay?) Prince. Unless Thomas morphs his game. No Rasheed Wallace & no bench play. actually small forward is probably the bulls' strongest position. it's that they're undersized and inconsiste…
  • If the Bulls wanna be the East Coast Warriors it works. what would give you that idea? i think the bulls want to replicate the pistons' championship team more than anything else. ... they dont seem all that concerned with offense. but for some r…
  • Kid is madd athletic, has crucial ups indispensible upz! tyrus has had his moments, not gonna take that away from him .... but i'm still not buying the idea of a 6'9", 215 lb. power forward. although he'll fit right in on the pipsqueak ass bulls…
  • Thanks for the best wishes, my peoples. Here's the story: I was bench-pressing at the gym on Wednesday night at my 5 rep max, without a spotter. I brought the weight down to my chest on the last rep of my 5 X 5 set, but couldn't get the bar back …
  • i gave it up a while ago .. was so hard to part with my vintage gretsch 18x12x14 set .. those 18" bass drums sound so so beautiful if tuned right. oh yeah i had some amazing k zildjian instanbul cymbals .. i rode with 2 20"s and some 14" hats, that…
  • i'm still on the fence for the IIIs. they are the best Jordan retro in quite a while, but from experience, the IIIs aren't really good sneakers to play hoops in. as far as wearing them casually, they are still 3/4 basketball sneaks, so they are gon…
