Shaun Livingston likely to sign with The Heat

Shaun Livingston

This would be a great fit for both parties in my opinion. Miami needs a veteran point guard and someone that can bring the D which was lacking last season. Meanwhile, Shaun would be wise to join the Heat if possible. He’s like an eager dog at the pound waiting for a home. He’s tried out for over ten teams, yet no one has pulled the trigger. Hopefully Miami will be the one.

Monta Ellis hurt on Moped

Monta Ellis

Finally we know.  It wasn’t Zorbing, it wasn’t skydiving, it was riding on a moped.  Big.  Deal.  He’s a good kid.  He rode on a moped, he fell, and got hurt.  Fine him, forget it, forgive him and get on with life.  He’s still going to be a top flight player in this league for the next 10 years.  I will admit, not the smartest thing in the world, but not as stupid as going on video and dissing the national anthem like Josh Howard.  That’s way worse for his rep. He’s still a baller.

Amare Stoudemire recently went on Nickelodeon and hilarity ensued. Takes guts to hop on Nick and jump around with a bunch of cartoon mascots and say Yo Gabba Gabba. Nice Amare, just went up in my book a few notches. Way to do something for the kids. Like it.

Baron Davis on Jenny Craig diet

Baron Davis

Apparently some people gain weight in the summer. One of those people is fat and happy, Baron Davis. He’s been recently spotted on the beach frolicking with recent mother Jessica Alba. Photos have surfaced that show Davis to be a bit on the ‘heavy’ side, while Jessica is looking as good as ever, even after recently pushing one out.

I’m sure the Clippers are just elated that BD has gained weight. We all watched him shed some 20 pounds when he joined the Warriors, but that was due to him running miles and miles each day. Each Warrior was forced to burn extra fat to keep up. To add to this story, Baron has been quoted as telling People Magazine that he’s gone on the Jenny Craig diet. No joke, he’s on Jenny Craig. This must make the Clippers nervous, because we all know that when Baron is on the heavier side he’s only playing 40 games a season because he’ll just keep getting hurt. Here are the photos from Popsugar.com.

I wouldn’t say he looks fat at all in the pics though, just not skinny.

Stephon Marbury

Wow. What more can I say. Stephon really knows how to manage his money, doesn’t he? It’s being reported by Newsday that Marbury recently spent $45 million on a private jet, so you know, he can fly around with ‘class’. Apparently he’s too good for a regular flight, and instead wants to spend what has to be a large percentage of his worth on a private jet.  Stephon, you should be investing in gold brother, haven’t you been reading the news lately?  The economy is in the shitter.

Well, along with that he’s not going to get waived, and he’s going to bring the clown show back to NY for one more season. I’m sure all the Knicks fans are jumping around with joy, fists in the air. Welcome to another lottery season, hopefully the Knicks can score Brandon Jennings from Europe in the draft.
