Z Should Go for 3

According to everyone, including NBA.com, Z should get his third trip to the all-star game this year. He is having a fantastic year, especially on the boards. On a personal note: I think Z is cool.



I think if he got this it should secure his number in the rafters of the Q. 11 years with the Cavs, 3 trips to the All-Star Game, one trip to the NBA Finals. (Again, I'm a big Z guy, so take this with a grain of salt)

LeBron an All-Star Starter Again

LBJ was voted to start in the All-Star game in the Big Easy. He got the 2nd most votes in the league with 2,108,831 (because the chowda-heads took care of their own giving Garnett 2,399,148). If you're counting, that is four starts in a row.

Props to "Video Game" James

Oh Boy.

And you thought a hat freaked people out. Let the whinning, pissing and moaning begin.



For the record, I don't care and I hate that this bothers people so much.

Larry Hughes would not win the batting title

Over at Yahoo! Sports Kelly Dwyer is blogging and has an interesting perspective about Larry Hughes. We have to admit, we were pretty psyched when Hughes signed and looked forward to big things. We even considered purchasing a Hughes jersey. Good thing we didn't. That would have been more embarrassing than the Charlie Frye jersey hanging in our closet. Talk about hitching our wagon to the wrong horse.

Obviously, the Hughes experiment hasn't worked out, but we're getting to the point where its just piling on to mention the monumental failure this has become. We get it, he doesn't fit with this team.



Is that a camera or a phone clipped to that lady's bikini bottom? Gotta do what you gotta do, I guess.

Not So Breaking News

We know we're not your source for Cavs news, but we're trying to get ISO-9000 certified so we have to document everything. With that in mind, Mike Brown received a contract extension the other day. Brown is in a tough predicament, when the Cavs win, it's because of Lebron, when they lose, it's because of him. That's the way it is for an NBA coach and he'll be getting paid handsomely for it. Brown has done well as the head coach, we realize his rotations can be head scratching, his offense mind numbing and his hope to recreate some variation of '2 girls 1 cup' on the sideline, by hacking luggies into a cup, disgusting (not nearly as disturbing as the original), but he has delivered on his promise to make the Cavs a defense first team. When the Cavs play defense, they win. It's that simple and it took them far last year.

Like it or lump it, Mike Brown is going to be around for a while. We're hoping he does wel enough to keep Lebron around for a while too.

LBJ Player of the Week (again)

My homey (and yours) LeBron Raymond James has been named the Eastern Conference's Player of the Week for the week ending January 06, 2008. This is the second time this year (the other was for the week ending Nov. 25, 2007).

He has now won 12 over all in his short career. Check 'em all out here

Mea Cupla

Sorry for never responding to those who took the time to email. Mixed among the 867 male enhancement and other spam emails were some genuine suggestions and questions that I checked for the first time today (only 3 years after the start of the site). Now that I know where to go and the password, I'll be able to check on a regular basis. Good news though, apparently a lot girls want to date me and the king of Zimbabwe can now access his trust fund because of my help!



Thanks for all the kind words!

Cavs media day and more...

Well, the off season is officially over and not much has changed with the Cavs roster. Stability has been the buzz word of the organization since Danny Ferry and Dan Gilbert took over, this summer they took it to extreme. So far, they've signed Devin Brown and traded for Cedric Simmons. Gone are David Wesley and Scot Pollard, but if most of your time was spent in a suit, were you really here?

Now the big issue. Sasha and Anderson are no where to be seen, two key components from the season and playoff run from last season. It appears the Cavs are playing a hard ball. They have the leverage and the players and their agents know it, so Sasha and Andy are playing their only card, threaten to play in Europe and not sign the qualifing offer. I'm all for players getting what they can, but this isn't making sense. Both players have entered uncharted waters. We'll see who blinks first.

Today the Cavs held their media day at their new pratice facility and if you want to see Lebron read some promos for ESPN/ABC, check it out.

Also, Lebron was on Saturday Night Live and it was pretty much a train wreck. Thinking back, he played himself in the first sketch after the monologue, then he played himself, then he played a basketball player, then he played an annoying nerd, then a gay Solid Gold dancer. Nothing to memorable from the show. He did wear a pretty fly velvet suit during the monologue.

Nike Zoom LeBron V Update

The dudes over at NikeLeBron.net have come correct again with the latest on LeBron's shoe line (honestly, its the only "shoe-centric" blog I subscribe to. Its easily the best LBJ Shoe site out there, hands down). After some sketchy first reviews of the V, this colorway should quiet some people down. The V's look great.



I know I'm too old and out of it to say it, but I'll "cop" these first day.

Romeo Travis Makes Cavs Summer League Roster

LeBron's St. Vincent-St. Mary highschool teammate Romeo Travis has made the Cavaliers summer league roster. He went undrafted this year but he showed hustle all four years for the Akron Zips (plus we KNOW he gels with LBJ).

How cool would it be if he made the squad.

Bryce Maximus James

LeBron's girlfriend gives birth to son
Associated Press

CLEVELAND - LeBron James' girlfriend, Savannah Brinson, gave birth early Thursday to the couple's second son, Bryce Maximus James.

Keith Estabrook, a spokesman for the Cleveland Cavaliers star and his family, said Bryce weighed 8 pounds, 6 ounces and was 21 inches long. He was born at 12:51 a.m. at Cuyahoga Falls General Hospital, near his father's hometown of Akron.

"Savannah and the baby are healthy and doing well," Estabrook said.

The boy was born as the Cavaliers prepared to host the San Antonio Spurs in Game 4 of the NBA finals Thursday night. The Spurs are one win from a four-game sweep.

The 22-year-old James and his girlfriend had their first child, LeBron James Jr., in October 2004.

RISE UP!!

Couldn't make to the game yesterday, didn't want to pay $1000 to get in the door? Well, some dood hooked it up and filmed the last minute of the game and the post game ceremony, all from his center court, lower bowl seat (not jealous, by the way).

Two things, 1.) I can't believe Gary Glitter's "Rock and Roll Part 2" is still the go to song during victory celebrations and 2.) Holy swear word! The Cavs are in the finals. It's been a ride.
