That’s Enough, Cleveland
There are three guys that come to mind who deserve a break: Obama, Michael Vick and LeBron James. This isn't a political blog, those are for douchebags and (speaking of douchebags) Rick Reilly beat me to defending Vick. I hate it when I find myself agreeing with Reilly. But I digress, I'm here to defend LBJ.
The Dawn of the NBA Superteam
L.A. Lakers: The Rich Keep on Getting Richer
by Sean Heffernan
When Danny Ainge's masterpiece trade for Kevin Garnett and Jesus Biggelsworth (Ray Allen) turned the Boston Celtics from perennial loser to NBA Champion in a single year a new standard was set for NBA GM's to reach for the miracle move.
Carlos Boozer to Bulls? Hallelujah!
- Coming to Chicago?
ESPN is reporting that their may be a trade in the works between the Utah Jazz, Chicago Bulls, and Portland Trailblazers that would send power forward Carlos Boozer to the Windy City.

The Forums: Is LeBron Slipping?
Okay kids - we're trying something new here. Welcome to the first B-Team forum. This is a new feature where the entire B-Team and maybe a guest blogger or two get the chance to weigh in on a hot button topic. And this shit's supposed to be interactive - so for the love of Christ USE THE COMMENTS SECTION (that's the thing that says "comments" that you write your opinions in). We want to hear what you have to say. This forum is for everyone. So let's hear it! My buddy Chris is getting us started off tonight as we discuss the recent realization the King James might be human.

Still the King?

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: ...

LEAVE ‘EM ALONE / TAKE YER SHOTS
"Leave the man alone. And leave me alone. And let it go...let...it...go." - The Rick
I find that much of the mainstream media places equal blame on anyone who slips up, whether they say the wrong thing or kill their ex-wife - as long as it leads to scandal. Do Fox News and CNN have you all bent out of shape and confused? Not sure who you should hate and who should get a free pass? Wild Bill is here to clear all that up with a brand new feature I like to call "LEAVE 'EM ALONE / TAKE YER SHOTS"
Stan The Man’s Guest Blog – Pops Sticks up For Stan Van Gundy
Cut the man some slack!
I read Jason Whitlock's Stan Van Panic article yesterday on Foxsports.com. Much too hard on a fat guy named Stan for me to pass up the opportunity to beef, so to speak. First, while I'm a big fan of JWhit, he looks like a guy who should have sympathy for fat guys!
Would, um…Anyone Care to Join Us For Our Little Website…Thingy
Sorry Dwight.
So yeah...nobody told us that part of the deal with having a website was that you have to know, write on it regularly. Admittedly, we've been about as productive as a GM plant the past few days. But in a nutsehell, here's what you missed:
