I think ESPN just aired a documentary called LeBron James: the Son of God and the Most Important Man in History.

Cuban is probably a bigger douche bag than Steinbrenner ever was

Agree about Cuban.
Isn't it against NBA rules for another franchise to try and convince a player to sign with them when said player made a verbal commitment to another team?
Plus they stayed at his house until the signing deadline.

Yeah I really don't know what the rules are for that sort of thing.

Had a feeling the Clippers were going against NBA rules.

Now let's hope his business partners are real Pacific Northwesters and not those skunk dealers at UConn who got their stuff third-hand from the same UMass, UNH, and Bennington-sourced moldy bellybutton lint that pollutes every college campus on the Northeast Corridor. :yuck:

The missuz is in Toronto this week and was irritated at the expense of her hotel. Turns out she's in the same hotel as players for the NBA All-Star game. She said that riding in the elevator was being eye level with elbows.

I was at DCA airport on Friday and there was what looked to be an NBA player who people were making a fuss over. He was really tall, bald with a beard and a gorgeous, smoking hot blonde who he wouldn't normally have a chance in hell of being with.

I'm pretty sure it was this guy Marcin Gorat.
