What Would It Take To Call Travelling On Lebron James?

Via Rant Sports  |  January 15, 2012
I almost wonder if Lebron James would have to take it the entire length of the floor without dribbling for the NBA refs to blow their whistles. And even then, chances are, he would insist that it was a “crab dribble.” This play happened in crunch time of the ESPN televised Miami Heat – Los Angeles Clippers game 1/11/12, but the refs didn’t seem to (or want...

Lebron James Sees Similarities With Him and Tim Tebow

Via BlackSportsOnline  |  January 14, 2012
Two totally different situations, backgrounds and players. But I do see a common denominator and I am not talking about Skip Bayless. The media attention both positive and negative can be overwhelming at times. Tebow handles it a lot better than Lebron, but Lebron is getting a bit better at it. Here is what The King had to say. The Miami Heat forward sees similarities when it comes...

Why the Spurs Will Beat the Miami Heat

Via Pro Sports Blogging  |  January 15, 2012
Here’s the truth of the matter…the Miami Heat have been playing terribly lately. On a West coast road trip they dropped three losses in a row and lost Dwayne Wade in the process. Chris Bosh also told GQ magazine that in a tied game in closing seconds he would give the ball to Wade over James…not good for team chemistry. And, while watching the Denver/Miami game...

I’M NOT LEBRON

Via Pro Sports Blogging  |  January 13, 2012
LeBron James is one of the best basketball players in the world.  He has won MVP’s, a scoring title, been to the NBA Finals twice, and while he is in Miami he WILL win a NBA Championship.  So why is LeBron the focus of so much criticism?  It’s pretty simple.  The people who are criticyzing him are thinking about what they would do if they were him.  They are thinking...

ESPN’s Heather Cox Quotes Rick Ross during Heat vs Nuggets Game

Via The Deep Post  |  January 16, 2012
Last Friday night the Miami Heat took a road trip to Denver to play the Nuggets for the Friday Nightcap on ESPN.  During the broadcast, sideline reporter Heather Cox talked about LeBron James and his pre-game routine in connection with his supposed, “4th quarter woes”. The great/bizarre thing about this in-game snippet from Ms. Cox was not that she detailed some irrelevant...

LeBron James says he “can relate” to Tim Tebow

Via Pro Basketball Talk  |  January 16, 2012
When you think of athletes like LeBron James, Tim Tebow probably isn’t the first guy that comes to mind. But LeBron James sees some similarities and relates to him, he told Chris Tomasson of FoxSportsFlorida.com. And stop with the “losing in the playoffs” jokes, that’s not what he meant. “I can relate to him a…

Clippers turning into desired NBA destination

Via Fox Sports West  |  January 12, 2012
LOS ANGELES The groundwork for whatever it is that the Clippers have become relevant would be a start, a title contender their great hope may have been laid 18 months ago in an office building in downtown Cleveland. It was there that the Clippers went to make their pitch for LeBron James. It seemed preposterous at the time: the idea that James, who for years held NBA front offices...

Heat look to close road trip with win in Denver

Via Fox Sports Florida  |  January 13, 2012
Tune into Sun Sports at 10 p.m. to watch the Miami Heat take on the Denver Nuggets. NBA Heat territory. Coming up short in overtime on consecutive nights during a brief West Coast swing has no doubt started to have an effect on the legs of the Miami Heat, if not their psyche. Capping their five-game trip in the high altitude of Denver against the run-and-gun Nuggets isn't bound...

Cleveland Cavaliers Exciting?
