Nice read on Congo Cash.....

I enjoyed it immensely.

Oh man, might be the read of the year!
MT: The most fun [player]? Wait let me guess … Lamar (Odom).

Mbenga: Yeah. Lamar. Lamar sometimes is kind of like a little baby, but in a grown up’s body. Some days he’ll make you laugh and you don’t even know why. Afterwards you may think, "Wait, why am I laughing?" He’s just funny.

People Need To Get Over Lebron

coming to LA…. there’s no way that’s ever going to happen as long as Kobe is in LA…

Clash in salaries, giving up players, not enough balls for two superstars, clash of egos, etc…

Besides, I’m not down in rooting for LBJ even if he had a Lakers jersey…

Kobe: "If you’re afraid to fail, then you’re probably going to fail," he says, laughing. "You know what I mean? Fuck it."

Yes, it is extremely unlikely

But if Phil Jackson can return to the Lakers and win a championship with Kobe … anything is possible.

Lebron COULD be coming to LA, but if he is, it's going to be in a CLIPPER uniform.....

And that is highly unlikely!

Mbenga is da man...

DJ is what being a professional athlete is all about. He may not garner the spotlight, appear on countless highlight reels, but what he does do is work hard, give it his all and have no regrets. His charitable nature only makes him that much more of a positive influence on others. It’s hard not to root for guys like Mbenga. You just want him to achieve as much success as he possibly can because he truly has the heart of a champion. Not only as an NBA champion, but one in life as well.

Craig Hodges

The Craig Hodges interview is a great read! Really enjoy Hodges personality, but more so his grasp of the game and the Triangle. Good stuff, check it out.

Long before there was LBJ, there was another physically talented power forward prowling the hardwood.

This is a great video of one of my favorite players, Chuck, King Charles, Turrible, however you know him, meet him again here. He loved the game, and was AWESOME!
