Lil' Wayne x Katie Couric Interview...



Wayne makes alotta good music, that's why I fuck with him, and have been since long before the recent influx of "Wayne-heads" in the past couple years...But there's something slightly disturbing that he of all people could say he's not a role model. I understand you may think that's not your job, but it comes with the territory. Charles Barkley said the same thing about athletes in '93, but I have to believe their actions were nowhere near as extreme as those of Wayne, and a musical connection with people is different than a sports one. Being a musical artist involves words directly from your mouth going into the heads of your fans over and over, as opposed to athletes, with whom you mainly see their actions on the court, and rarely hear about their personal lives and habits. The League governs over the players actions anyway, so they are not allowed to participate in many of the things Wayne does regardless.

And this nigga said he smokes medicinal for migraines. LMAO....Get the fuck outta here!!!

NBA ADDS "HORSE" TO ALL STAR WEEKEND!!!!!!!!!



TNT today announced the addition of the popular driveway game H-O-R-S-E to its NBA All-Star 2009 programming lineup. The H-O-R-S-E game will air live during TNT's two-hour Inside the NBA program at 5 p.m. EST on Saturday, February 14.

Participants will be announced at a later date. (Please say Rasheed Wallace, please say Rasheed Wallace...)

According to TNT's press release, the game will take place on a 45' X 50' court alongside the network's new NBA on TNT rig (see above). The fancy rig set-up can rise up to 14 feet off the ground and the bleachers can seat up to 117 guests. Calling the action from the rig will be Ernie Johnson, along with analysts Kenny Smith and Chris Webber. They will be dressed in identical gray suits.

The game will use a traditional format in which three NBA players will establish the playing order. Once a shot is made, the next player in the predetermined order will attempt the same shot. If that player misses, he is assign— look, if you don't know how to play H-O-R-S-E, I doubt you're reading this blog. All you really need to know is that there is no dunking allowed and ballers have just 24 seconds to create/mimic shots.

As you might recall, the D-League actually test-drove H-O-R-S-E during last year's All-Star festivities in New Orleans. I was fortunate enough to catch it in person and here's what I said at the time:

Morris Almond didn't win the D-League's inaugural H-O-R-S-E competition, but he sure made things interesting. In the first round, Idaho center Lance Allred faced off against Fort Wayne’s Jeremy Richardson, and the craziest shot they took was probably a 15-footer with their legs crossed. Ugh. It was a painful start. Thankfully, though, Almond was up next, firing up shots from the floor, behind the backboard, eyes closed ... you know, like the game should be played. So, could it work on the NBA's big stage? Without a doubt. Throw a mic on guys like Garnett, Nash and 'Sheed, and watch the hilarity ensue. It's no worse than the Shooting Stars or Skills Challenge, that's for sure.

I'll stand by that review, especially the Skills Challenge jab — just have them race already, Stern! But, yeah, as long as the NBA lands some fairly personable stars, fans are going to eat this event up.

So, who do you want to see battle it out? Should we find out if Kevin Love is for real, or do we play nice and let LeBron try and save a little trick-shot face? Let's hear your three picks below.

Today Was A Good Day...The NBA is coming back stronger than ever...



Also, Three Point Shootout Contestants were announced:

  • Jason Kapono (2-time champ) - 52 (3-Pointers Made), 42% ('08-'09)
  • Danny Granger - 120, 40%
  • Mike Bibby - 114, 41%
  • Daequan Cook - 105, 41%
  • Rashard Lewis - 137, 42%
  • Roger Mason - 103, 45%
Granger's my dude so I gotta root for him, but I think Roger Mason might take this one.

Skills Challenge 2009 Contestants...

  • Devin Harris 
  • Derrick Rose
  • Tony Parker
  • Jameer Nelson
Obviously, Jammer will no longer be participating due to his injury. His replacement is still to be determined...

In light of Kobe's historic performance Monday night, here are some dope Kobe ads fom over the years....












NCAA Basketball...



You already know what it is. Big ups to my man Evan Turner, who continues to do the damn thing every single night. In Ohio St.'s 80-72 overtime win against Purdue, ET put in 26 to go along with 12 boards and 7 dimes. And played 45 minutes - more than anyone from either team. 



Also, HUGE ups to Jerel McNeal. Dude has been going insane for Marquette, and is one of the most - if not the most - well-rounded guards in the country. Tuesday night's stat line in Marquette's 76-61 vs. DePaul: 26 points, 6 assists, 4 boards, 5 steals, and 4 blocks. 4 Blocks for a guy that's 6-2. Wow. On top of all that, 8-16 from the field, 5-5 from the free throw line, and 5-8 from downtown. His game was efficient and flawless. 

Also, Will Walker had 30, including 5 threes, in the Blue Demons' loss.

NBA Basketball...


6 NBA Games on tap Tuesday night...Highlights: LBJ went for 33, 7 boards, 4 assists, and 2 blocks as the Cavs remained UNBEATEN at home - 23-0. Paul Pierce, Ray Allen - who hit a 3 at the buzzer to win it - and Rajon Rondo, all went for 20+ to pick up the slack for the C's in KG's absence. They've now won 12 in a row. Melo had 35 and 9 boards in his second game back after being out with a broken hand since the first week of January. Vince Carter had a triple-double - 15 points, 12 dimes, and 10 boards. Greg Popovich gave TP, Timmy D, Manu, and Michael Finley the night off.



Injury Update: Jameer Nelson has a torn labrum, and at the least will miss several weeks. Should he have surgery, he'll mis the rest of the season. Damn, there goes Orlando's title hopes...Chris Paul is day-to-day with a strained groin. 

It's crazy how the complexion of The League has changed in just a few days due to injuries to top teams. The loss of Andrew Bynum for at least two months hurts L.A.'s chances, but they're definitely not out of the conversation. Nelson's injury puts an end to title talk in Orlando, but they're certainly still a top 4 team in the East. And if CP3 misses a game, it's a guaranteed L for N.O. - no player, save D. Wade, is more valuable to their team this season.

NBA Basketball...KOBE GOES FOR 61 AT THE GARDEN!!!!!!!



It was a historic night at The Garden. Kobe led the Lakers to a 126-117 win over the Knicks, but that doesn't really matter. What matters are the following facts:
  • Kobe Bryant aka KB24 aka The Black Mamba aka The Doberman SCORED 61 POINTS.
  • Bryant's 61 is the record for most points scored in the current MSG.
  • He was 19-31 from the field and 20-20 from the free throw line - the most free throws made without a miss in a game.
  • It was Bryant's 5th time scoring 60, 24th time scoring 50, and 5th time hitting 40 in The Garden.
  • He left the game to a standing ovation and "MVP" chants from Knicks' fans.


I've said before, and I'll definitely say it again after Monday's performance: Kobe's the best player in the league. Maybe not the most dominant, dangerous, or whatever else, but skill for skill he's the best in The League. Matter fact, skill for skill, he's as good as Mike. Yup, I said it.


On a more somber note...The Lakers found out they'll be without Andrew Bynum for 8-12 weeks after he tore his MCL last week. Damn.

Also, Chris Paul and Jameer Nelson were both injured in their respective games. Damn, Damn, Damn. 



How important is CP3 to the Hornets?

When he left in the 3rd quarter they were up 17. They lost by 8. You do the math.

NCAA Basketball...It's All About UCONN!!!



Finally we have a definite best team in the Big East - for today, at least. #1 UCONN took care of #7 Louisville - 
IN Louisville - 68-51 in their first game at the top of the polls. The Huskies got major production from 4 of their 5 starters: 18 and 7 rebounds from Jeff Adrien. Center Hasheem Thabeet had 14, 11, 4 blocks, and a countless number of shots altered. 14 points from Jerome Dyson, and 11 points and 8 dimes from A.J. Price. And UCONN didn't scrape to a win; it was in Johnny Cochran- convincing fashion, and over, arguably, the hottest team in the country, as the Cards came in riding a 9-game win streak. Although Terrence Williams went off for 26, he was the only Card in double figures. The Huskies defense, anchored by Thabeet, was unbelievably stingy, and, as a team, Louisville shot 22-64 from the field - 34%.


In every sport, each week presents a new  matchup that can be dubbed the "Game of the Year". Last week was Duke/Wake, but today trumped that. In a game of such large magnitude, UCONN more than proved they deserve the #1 ranking. Thus far, the Big East season has been riddled with parity, but slowly, the cream's beginning to rise to the top. Syracuse and Georgetown have fallen off. Notre Dame's schedule is brutal - 5 straight losses to ranked Big East opponents, and UCLA on Saturday. Villanova's good, but not that good. So now we're left with Pitt, UCONN, Louisville, and Marquette. 



For now UCONN's the "Beast In The East", but they've got a 2 games against Pitt, plus games against Syracuse and Notre Dame, and a trip to Marquette. This should be good. 

This weeks new Top 25 rankings. As you know, UCONN's the new #1. As expected, G'Town dropped from the rankings, as did Notre Dame.

Also, ESPN's Bracketbuster's matchups were announced.
