Lebron, you asked for help. You got it. You definitely got a big body to go down low.
The Phoenix Suns agreed to send Shaq to Cleveland for Sacha Pavlovic, Ben Wallace, the No. 46 pick in the draft, and $500,000. MAKE IT RAIN!
The trade solidifies a few things for us going into tonight's draft: ...

And a most pretentious one at that... Manny Ramirez went 0-for-2 for the Albuquerque Isotopes in his first action since his suspension.
The bigger story here is the fact that Manny Ramirez's playing in Triple-A is such a big freaking story. ...
Donald Fehr: The Anti-Fan
Donald Fehr... What a guy!
I look at this man, I hear him speak and I'm baptized in clarity--this is why my father would have disowned me if I became a lawyer. Seriously. He told me and my brothers, "You guys can do anything you want. But if any of you turn out to be bankers or lawyers, you're outta the will." I could be a piece-of-shit criminal and still be in the will; though probably not deeply involved in Thanksgivings and Christmases. ...

The US Open is slated to start today Bethpage Black on Long Island today. Will Tiger dominate? Will Phil "Sentimental Favorite" Mickelson win one for the Gipper? Will the gallery be as good as 2002? ...

The Crosstown Series' opener was postponed last night. With both teams looking as mediocre as ever, I was really hoping for a good game, a bench clearing brawl, and Carlos Zambrano's exploding his knee rounding second base. ...

The Headline
Game 3 of the NBA Finals tonight. Here's to hoping Dwight Howard looks a little more interested, Courtney Lee catches a break or two (after that tough one to end regulation in Game 2), Rafer Alston shakes out the cobwebs, and that nobody mentions how bad Kobe really wants it. Becuase, really, why play the game if you don't want it? Is it absolutely necessary to have a goofy "look at me" scowl to show one's "wanting it"?
By the way, Kobe, your "mean underbite face" makes you look constapated. Poop at halftime, will ya? ...
The Morning Stretch
Starting Monday, June 8th, we at BTeamBombers are instituting a weekday morning segment "The Morning Stretch". Why only the weekedays? Cuz the only thing I stretch on Saturdays is my foreskin, dammit.
This Morning's Headline:
So Courtney Lee, the young gentleman serving as a homeless man's Rip Hamilton with that facemask, took the final two shots in regulation for the Orlando Magic in last night's Game 2 overtime loss to the Lakers. Interesting... Because I thought with the game tied, you'd want it in either Dwight Howard's hands downlow or Rashard Lewis' hands anywhere from 10-20 feet from the basket. ...
If it were boxing, The Hangover takes Swingers the distance and draws… Maybe Wins.
