TKO! Basketball Player Loses His Cool And KO's Referee




LeBron 'Cursed' By Witch Doctor



WTF.... Like really? Although the Heat lost, mainly because the other two members of the big three were still in Miami, James was the only one that showed up posting 31 points, four rebounds, three assists and two blocks. Don't necessarily think that the 'witch doctor' had any impact on last nights performance. Might have had it on Bosh and Wade though, but they didn't put no curse on them.

I'm far from a Miami Heat fan, but Clevelanders really need to get over it. LeBron James made Cleveland relevant again during his seven years there and the team blatantly tanked to get him. As a free agent, he had the right to go wherever he wanted.

And he still would have received the same amount of backlash even if he didn't do the ESPN show.

Nike LeBron James Commercial: Rise



What should you do? Just STFU and put up the stats you did last year so I can win my fantasy league

Iverson: I'm Taking My Talents to Istanbul, Turkey


Allen Iverson has agreed in principle to sign an incentive-laden, two-year, $4 million contract with Besiktas of the Turkish professional league, sources told Yahoo! Sports on Sunday night.

Iverson plans to sign the contract this week, the sources said, and is expected to report to Besiktas the week of Oct. 31.

Iverson’s contract will give him an opt-out clause after this season. There’s no escape clause during the season for Iverson to leave Turkey and return to the NBA.

Iverson, 35, could make his debut for Besiktas on Nov. 6 in a game against Bornova. Besiktas played its first game of the season on Oct. 19 and is 1-1 in league standings.

Iverson has solicited more lucrative offers to play in China this season, but has been intrigued with the prospects of playing in Istanbul. After controversial exits with his last three franchises – Detroit, Memphis and Philadelphia – Iverson exhausted interest from NBA teams. Despite averaging 26.7 points in his 14-year NBA career, Iverson ran out of opportunities in the league.

Besiktas is considered third among the three most powerful franchises in the Turkish first division. The club has a strong following, and team officials believe Iverson could be an immense gate draw.

Toronto Raptors Life After Chris Bosh







Well judging from the preseason games, and I know its preseason, the reason why everything was centered around Bosh is because ... well... the team is absolute doo-doo without him. Colangelo put together a roster that needs Chris Bosh as opposed to a roster that masks his weaknesses.

And watching Reggie Evans and Andrea Bargnani together makes me feel like I'm repeatedly stabbing myself in the eye with a rusty fork.

Kleiza And The Raptors Go Off In Vancouver

Could it be that Linas Kleiza, leading scorer of the Euroleague last year, be the leading scorer of the Raptors this upcoming season? He is definitely more polished than Bargnani and DeRozan and looks like he will be the most consistent option on the team. 20 points in 20 minutes in a meaningless preseason game. And the new look Raptors looked like a completely different bunch yesterday in Vancouver. Even if they do suck balls, atleast they will be fun to watch.

DeRozan's Cameo Appearance On Master P's Music Video




For those who don't know, DeRozan played on Master P's AAU team that also included rapper Lil' Romeo. Following their respective high school careers, DeRozan committed to USC while Lil' Romeo accepted a scholarship with the Trojans. And for those who have forgotten, Master P was once a member of the Raptors training camp roster back in 1999.



During the 1999 NBA summer league, Percy averaged 24 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists. Quite the baller for a rap star.
