Not that we couldn’t see this coming, but according to the Cuyahogo County sheriff’s office, new Cleveland Cavaliers C Shaquille O’Neal has applied to be a special deputy for the state of Ohio.
Shaq has served prior roles within law enforcement in Arizona, Virginia and Florida, so why wouldn’t he aim for his new state of business. Well, he has. If he is hired he will have the right to carry a gun and make arrests; however, his deputy position would not be paid as he would not be a formal …

When you have a nickname such as AK-47 as a basketball player you MUST be a bad ass, this USE to be the case for Andrei Kirilenko.  From 2003-2006 AK-47 averaged over 15 ppg, over 7 rpg and over 3 bpg.  The man was an absolute beast, but over the last three seasons Kirilenko has averaged 10+ ppg, under 5 rpg and under 2 bpg.  How does one, with the nickname of AK-47 have such a downfall so quickly?  There really isn’t an explanation for it and Jerry Sloan has since …

Charles Barkley has said some dumb things in his broadcasting career and usually speaks without thinking, which is what makes him so funny.

The Phoenix Suns claimed Jarron Collins off waivers and were “awarded” the claim on Sunday.  WHAT IN THE WORLD WERE THEY THINKING. 
I understand Robin Lopez is hurt and they need size in the paint but that is literally all Collins provides, a 6’11″ frame.  Collins is such trash and I think he qualifies as a top 3 worst big man of all-time.  He brings nothing to the table and was blessed with height, but that is all that got him to the NBA. 
I believe the Suns could send Leonardo Barbosa …

In a recent article from Maxim magazine, Cavs superstar LeBron James was asked, “If there was one guy on the planet you could dunk on, who would it be?”
What would your guess be?
Shaq? Not anymore now that they’re teammates. Dwight Howard? He did knock him out of the ’09 playoffs, but that’d be no fun; he’s in the NBA. Well, LeBron wouldn’t get political, would he? Umm, yes, and let’s hope it doesn’t happen again.
