Looks like the Big Cactus/Law Officer will be a volunteer for the Tempe, Ariz. department. You may remember he was a volunteer for an LA department, and in Florida was licensed to carry a firearm.

Supposedly, volunteers are responsible for translating and handing out fliers.

I've always liked that Shaq wants to be a cop. I think it would be hilarious if he pushed for the undercover department.

Lysol says it's :

1. Parker-Duncan

2. Deron-Boozer

3. Nash-Stoudemire

4. Paul-West

5. Billups-Wallace

I agree for the most part, but I think you have to throw Kidd and Dirk in there.

What do you think?

No shit Sherlock. But, Lysol drops some interesting stats on why.

Garnett, Duncan, Jackson and Kwame. Find out why and see some bad photoshopping

1. Jordan

2. Bryant

3. West

4. Gervin

5. Iverson

6. Drexler

7. Miller

8. Maravich

9.Monroe

10. Dumars

Hmmm. I'm a big big Kobe fan, but I don't know if you can put him at 2 just yet. What do you think

Truehoop does a fantastic writeup of the issue.

It's a silly move by Cuban in my opinion, as blogs can be serious journalistic tools.

Also, the day Harvey Bars can't go in to the Mavs locker room and ask Kidd about his right hook is the day I stop watching hoops.

A 25-year-old minor league Indians pitcher will let you invest $25 in him for .0016 percent of his career earnings? Is it worth it?

Dunleavy Jr. looked like a complete bust in OakTown, now he's shining with the Pacers. Who else needs a new zip code?

Looks like the Spurs have acquired perpetually-scowling Kurt Thomas for Francisco Elson and Brent Barry - both with expiring contracts.

Good move for the Spurs. Elson and Barry weren't giving them much, but Thomas will be a decent big to play behind and along side Tim Duncan.

As for the Sonics, the only reasons I can think of doing this move is to be nice to Thomas. Thomas' $8 mil or so contract was already expiring, and Barry and Elson won't be parts of a rebuilding process in Seattle/OK city. Maybe a draft pick will be involved? Maybe he wasn't a good influence on the youngsters (telling Kevin Durant to try rebound - how dare he)?

It's nice they're sending him to a contender and all, but don't you have a responsibility to try and make your team better?

So, Britney's 6'8 and can throw it down. She also has ridiculously long arms - she makes Luol Deng and Elton Brand look like TRex's.

Umm, not to be mean or anything, but she looks and sounds like a man. When I first saw her dunking videos on YouTube, I thought Joakim Noah was just having fun with us.

Besides "WTF?" one also has to ask who can play better D at this point in their career?

I still love ya, Big.

Looks like he passed the physical. Let's see Kidd move to the Mavs, and Artest move to the Nuggets and it'll be an amazing postseason.

Ok, that dude's name is Shaquille O'Neal of course. But no one's talking that much about the Heat's side of the deal. Click over for some Matrix highlights as well.

With all the Shaq trade in the news, it's freaking dealing days in the NBA - everyone must go.

We have the Lakers' acquisition of Gasol and the Shaq deal, and I think you're going to see a few more impact deals in retaliation.

Jason Kidd's demanded out, and I think Dallas almost has to go for him to keep up. Ron Ron has pretty much said he'll be gone for the Kings, and rumors are pointing to the Nuggets.

Damn! We're going to have a stacked Western Conference and an amazing playoffs. I love this game!

Looks like the BETcats signed Earl Boykins for the rest of the season, and I suppose it's a good move for them. Boykins has been a proven scorer in this league, and his crazy upper body strength doesn't let him get posted as much you'd think.

The problem is that the dude is too small to be thinking he's a two guard. He needs to be able to run an offense.
