Rashard Lewis wants to win a championship
via Washington Post
Finally out of the top spot of all the Overpaid/Overrated/Bad contracts lists, Rashard Lewis is aspiring to win a ring. Everybody else was talking about how Tracy McGrady deserves to get a ring before calling it quits, how about Rashard? He was also a high school phenom who went straight to the NBA. He has also scored 50 points in a game. But sadly, he will...
Rashard Lewis Won’t Opt-Out of Heat Contract
I wouldn’t opt-out either.
Lewis is basically the Tracy McGrady of the Heat. When he enters the game, you know it is safe to leave the arena. He isn’t making a lot of money with the Heat, but considering he has made over $140 million throughout his career I don’t think cash is a problem for him.
Rashard Lewis confirmed he doesn’t plan to opt out of his contract this summer...

Magic alums making trip to NBA Finals
It is hard to find a good angle for the Magic when it comes to the NBA Finals. After all, Orlando is about as far away from the Finals as a team can get having finished with the worst record in the league.

Paul George joins the club
Paul George, welcome to the club.
Despite your incredible game in Game One of the Eastern Conference Finals, like Hedo Turkoglu and Rashard Lewis and Craig Ehlo before you, you have been reduced to the bystander to history. No one will recall that you hit the game-tying 3-pointer to send the game to overtime or even that you won the series -- anyone outside of Orlando remember...
Ranking the best shooters in NBA history
Two weeks ago, Stephen Curry capped off an amazing season by hitting his 272nd 3-pointer of the year, breaking Ray Allen’s seven-year-old NBA record.

Rashard Lewis Runs Interference for Chris Bosh on Lil Wayne Questions
The whole Lil Wayne and Chris Bosh drama makes my skin crawl. I think its downright despicable to involve his a man’s wife in a petty discussion about sports access.
