The Golden State Warriors and the New York Knicks have agreed to a sign and trade deal with the New York Knicks sending Anthony Randolph, Ronny Turiaf, Kelenna Azubuike, and a second round pick to the Knicks in exchange for David Lee. This a great deal for the Warriors, and I believe it is a step in the right direction for the franchise. In this trade, the Warriors dump Ronny Turiaf ...

If the goal of the Golden State Warriors was to convince fans they were serious about being factors in next season's Western Conference race, then trading for David Lee was a good place to start. The Warriors sent Anthony Randolph, Ronny Turiaf, and Kelenna Azubuike to New York in exchange for Lee, who could provide instant help for Golden State's struggling interior. Lee brings his 20.2 points per game and 11.7 rebounds ...

The complete BS open letter to LeBron James from Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert is one thing (albeit very sad). Gilbert was reacting on emotion, and he never should have published an open-letter to fans in that state of mind (regardless of him waking up today still pissed off). But Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban is just a freaking jerk, plain and simple. How can anyone in their right mind back a d-bag ...

Pat Riley and the Miami Heat front office must be feeling an awful lot of pressure right now. He might have been able to sign Dwyane Wade, Lebron James, and Chris Bosh, but now they've got their work cut out for them filling the other nine (eight if you count Mario Chalmers) spots on the roster. A team of three isn't going to be winning any championships. Ever. With an ...

LeGone, but not forgotten. This attitude may be filtering through the minds of many Knicks fans as a result of the post-LeBron fallout. After dumping cap faster than a high maintenance girlfriend, they could not land their desired target. The Big Apple was ultimately turned down by the King. And on national television, he made sure it was in embarrassing fashion. LeBron to Knicks: “Sorry, but I’m out of you’re league.” LeBron never ...

LeBron James made a mistake.  A big mistake.  And no, I am not talking about where LeBron chose to take his talents for the next five years.   LeBron's mistake was the manner in which he informed his former team, Cleveland fans, and the NBA of his decision to play for the Heat.  And although the decision inevitably was his to produce this one-hour marketing nightmare, if I were him, I ...

Like seemingly everyone else, I was turned off by the utter narcissism and grandiosity of LeBron James' "Decision" special on ESPN. And like everybody else, I tuned it to watch it. However, I wasn't just watching to see what the "Man Who Will Never Be King" would do on an intellectual level. I had a dog in the hunt. I knew that LeBron's decision could impact the future of the Warriors, and ...

"Even after 40 years, maybe the most surprising thing about the June 22, 1969, Cuyahoga River fire is that it is remembered at all. "The fire—a brief Sunday afternoon flare-up of oil-soaked debris likely ignited by either molten steel or a spark from a passing rail car—was doused by local firefighting tugboat crews. The story barely made the newspapers the next day. "But the effect of that ...

So 24 hours after fans burned Lebron jerseys and Cavs owner Dan Gilbert claimed a Benedict Arnold, people are still talking about Lebron and the decision he made. My initial thought as he claimed a stake to South Beach was how the poor fans of Cleveland would react. The city has not won a professional sports championship in what seems like forever. The Browns were always an Elway Broncos team away ...

LeBron James' monumental decision, broadcast on ESPN's "The Decision" last night, has received mixed reviews all over the country.  Twenty-four hours later, the jury is still out on whether he made the right decision in selecting South Beach as his home for the next half-decade.  In Miami, season ticket sales have already been sold out since this morning, as fans are eager to see "Miami Thrice" in action next season. No ...
