doing our damndest to keep Him in Cleveland
On this day in history people thought Darko might still be good....
Slam posted this link that discusses the ramifications of the 2003 NBA Draft (LeBron, Wade, Bosh, Melo, Mo Williams, etc). I like the breakdown on how the draft “should have went.” Check it out.
Kev, why are you the only one wearing bowling shoes?
Apparently the newest hot topic of discussion deals with LeBron James and Kevin Durant. It seems that several people are under the impression that Durant will eventually surpass James. The Kobe vs LeBron talk, I understand. This however, I can’t believe is actually even being discussed. This is a sign that the NBA season needs to start ASAP, we’ve officially ran out of logical discussion points!
LeBron’s worldwide tour will also promote the upcoming documentary “More Than A Game”, which follows James from high school to present day. The tour will also focus on neglected basketball programs throughout the world. Check out another article about the tour from Freshnessmag.
Is it just me or do these remind you of the old Griffeys?

"What are you getting me for Christmas?"
The early plan for the NBA’s 2009-2010 season has the Cavs opening with the Boston Celtics at the Q on October 27th. Although the NBA schedule is far from finalized, early plans also have the Cavs playing the Lakers on Christmas Day. Read the full article here.
Get it done Ferry!!!
ESPN sheds some light on LeBron’s contract talks. The beginning of this video pertains to Lamar Odom’s free agency, but the King has his time after Odom gets his pub.
Does Michael feel sorry about “The Shot,” or does he just believe LeBron should stay in Cleveland?
The latest from a series of teams trying to entice LeBron away from Cleveland. Who would have guessed the Clippers? This is an excerpt from Bill Simmons’ hilarious Almost Famous blog on ESPN.
“To the Clippers, who have qualified for “It’s all happening!” status a few times over the past few decades, only this time, it might stick. If you didn’t notice, they turned Zach Randolph into Blake Griffin and three quality bench guys (including Mark Madsen, the first towel-waving chemistry guy they’ve had since … since … since … I mean, have they ever had a towel-waving chemistry guy?). Now they have a killer under-22 foundation (Griffin and Eric Gordon, headed for a leap in Year 2), a fun team for this season (especially if Baron Davis and Marcus Camby are healthy) and a super-intriguing cap situation next summer (they’re under $35 million). This remains the best combination basketball/big city situation for LeBron James. It’s true.”
