Ball Don't Lie - NBA


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: Boston Celtics Examiner. Better prepare yourself for an All-Celtics NBA All-Star Game, folks.
PF: WRAL.com. Little info is available, but Rodney Rogers was injured in an ATV accident on Friday.
SF: The Sports Hernia. Pau Gasol: Sexiest Man Alive.
SG: Psychedelic Kimchi. "LeBron is the hot girlfriend, Cleveland her high school years."
PG: Ben's Suns Blog. Note to Amar'e: If you want to be the man, you can't get ejected in the clutch.
6th: And One. Lame courtside ticket-holders to rowdy Cavalier bench: "Sit down or get some skirts."
7th: Brew Hoop. Bucks guard Tyronn Lue is afraid of shooting in the paint ... and monsters under his bed.
8th: Sam Smith, via Mouthpiece. "Once upon a time, not so long ago, the Knicks offered a ton of money to a future Hall of Famer free agent guard. But Michael Jordan turned them down, and LeBron James could do the same in 2010."
9th: Flare Prod. Have trouble reaching those out of reach places, Kevin Willis? You need Mutombo Arm!
10th:
YT, via Dime. "The Assassination of Michael Jordan by the Coward Kobe Bryant," after the jump.

    There's a big problem with Sam's recollection, and he knows it, but he wants to be smarter than you and won't tell you:
    the most the Knicks could offer was just over 21 million. Jordan could sign for just over 30 million with the Bulls back in 1996.

    Not Rodney Rogers!!!! Guy had the best comment ive heard in years. After the Red Sox won a playoff game vs the Yankees and the score came up, the fans went nuts, as Rodney Rogers came in the game. Poor guy goes, "I thought I had been out a while and they were just happy to see me."

    KD, wasn't that the point of giving MJ shares of ITT and/or Sheraton Hotels, to make up the difference in salary that the Knicks couldn't offer?
    Sam Smith mentions that.

    After watching that video...it's more evident then ever, that poor Kobe had to hiest 90% of Jordan's game....pathetic. Why not just fling the tounge out there and make it official. He reminds me of modern hip-hop and how they steal, loop, and make the original look that much better when put side by side.

    Bookmark this. LeBron will turn the Knicks down. And as for Kobe. The first problem of someone trying to be the next Michael Jordan would be the name. That's it. No more words about it from here on. Kobe is Kobe and he is great. I still don't like him.
