Disclaimer: I am a HUGE LeBron hater. With that said, read my thoughts on LeBron, and what I truly believe the Cavs did wrong in the Eastern Conference Semifinals against Boston. It’s not 100% biased either (maybe just 95% biased, haha).

After watching Game 6 of the Cavs/Celtics series, ask me if I’m happy:
You: Shooter, are you happy?

New Jersey Nets Basketball: It’s More Than Just a Russian Owner

Why not start with my favorite team, the New Jersey Nets. Now I know I don’t have much to brag about (and by much, I mean anything), but the Nets have a future. This future is definitely brighter than it is now – …

Rookie of the Year Does Not Equal MVP
Let me make this clear: I do not know who should have won Rookie of the Year this season. What I do know now is that the voters do not choose Rookie of the Year based on his value to his team (aka Most Valuable Player).
Sacramento Kings PG stud Tyreke Evans won …
