The 10-man rotation, starring Dwight Howard's new movie
A look around the league and the web that covers it. It's also important to note that the rotation order and starting nods aren't always listed in order of importance. That's for you, dear reader, to figure out.
C: New York Post. "Dwight Howard is working with 'The Ring' executive producer Michele Weisler on a movie titled 'Switch,' about a 'white, unathletic, unpopular high-school freshman who swaps basketball skills with Howard.'" (Update: Howard's agent refutes the report.)
PF: The Good Point. Allen Law on Allen Iverson(notes) and the decaying Detroit economy.
SF: Blazer's Edge. A look at what this year's draft would be like if territorial claims were allowed.
SG: Epic Carnival. The 10 most entertaining NBA players of all-time.
PG: Sports Radio Interviews. Phil Jackson says he wants to push through for one more year.
6th: Silver Screen & Roll. A tribute to Lamar Odom(notes), NBA champion.
7th: SLAM Online. Ryne Nelson: "Hating a player's ego is wack. People always want it both ways."
8th: Rufus On Fire. New Cats-Dubs trade rumor: Raja Bell(notes) for Kelenna Azubuike(notes) and Marco Belinelli(notes).
9th: Basketbawful. Oliver Miller wants to make a comeback. What? Why are you laughing?
10th: Sports Media Watch. "The entire 2009 NBA Playoffs (78 games) averaged 5.4 million viewers on ABC, ESPN/ESPN2 and TNT, up 11% from 4.9 million viewers last year."

24. Cleveland Cavaliers -- BJ Mullens (Canal Winchester, OH)
The only Ohioan prospect ranked in the top 25, Mullens puts to bed the Shaq and Yao trade rumors and has every opportunity to follow in the big stiff footsteps of Zydrunas Ilgauskas. Unfortunately, he's doomed to the worst possible rookie hazing imaginable: taking imaginary pre-game pictures for LeBron, getting covered in chalk dust by LeBron, answering post-game questions about why LeBron isn't answering post-game questions, and on and on.
It's all worth it because he gets to play with LeBron. At least for one year anyway.
***
Still hatin' on LeBron.
