i have to say, my desire to see Lebron NOT win a champioship is stronger than my support for any other team. If the Heat played Al Qaeda in a bball game, I'm growin a beard and rootin for the Runnin Rebels. Ok, maybe not that strong, I'd root for a 0-0 tie in that game.

I'd root for Armageddon. :D :p

And since the Thunder won last night, you know some refs are getting fired for it.

They'll get some directive about something that didn't go LeBron's way and suddenly that will be called more often...like Garnett with 3 fouls early in the last series, suddenly they'll start calling moving picks that haven't been called all year or something else to get OKC into foul trouble

Van Gundy can cry for a foul all he wants. Der Fuhrer Stern wasn't going to allow it to happen.

The commentators were even stating during the game that some of those against KG were fouls, but those haven't been called against him for 17 YEARS! Stern really wants [L]ittle low [J]ob to get a title...

Just watched the Dream Team documentary. It's been uploaded a few times in Youtube but the NBA has taken it down. Except for this one.

I really enjoyed the beginning when it went through the training camps and the selection of the team, but I feel like it sped through the actual Olympics a little too fast.

I don't know why USA Basketball hasn't come out with a box set of the games, unless there's massive copyright fees for the Olympic and FIBA games. Even then, I would probably buy a DVD of the Dream Team-College Stars games and the intersquad scrimmage in Monaco.

Looks like Der Furher is going to get his way.

There's just something wrong with a world where LeBron can get a ring, but Patrick Ewing and Karl Malone can't.

If anyone wants the original Dream Team game tickets, let me know. I know I have two stashed away somewhere. They are NOT medal games. They are real. I have been holding on to them for sentimental value (last year I cared about bouncyball).

So apparently LeBron was gimping along and playing up an injury last night? (I didn't actually watch the game) Hockey players were not impressed with his performance...

“Lebron James is embarrassing himself and the NBA or actually all athletes,” tweeted Ryan Potulny, a forward in the Washington Capitals system.

“I wonder what kind of face LeBron would make if he took a slapper off the laces?” wondered former Bruin and current Jet Blake Wheeler.

“We get it Lebron, it doesn’t hurt when you’re running around but it looks unbearable when the cameras are close up during the timeouts,” wrote Nick Bonino, former BU player and current Anaheim Duck.

“What a gutsy performance by lebron #not” wrote Dallas Stars defenseman Alex Goligoski.

“Oh my god guys, Lebron has a cramp, everyone get on their feet, standing O for somehow staying in the game,” wrote Scott Valentine of the Milwaukee Admirals, the AHL affiliate of the Nashville Predators, before sarcastically adding, “If Lebron somehow manages to pull off winning a ring after fighting through a thigh cramp.. it will be a story I tell my children’s children.”

Taylor Hall, the No. 1 pick of the 2010 NHL Draft, didn’t take a shot directly at LeBron, but rather at the whole sport.

“So much flopping going on.. Wondering what these bball players would do if they got a skate in the face haha,” wrote Hall, who himself received a cut on his face that required 30 stitches this season.

NHL players weren’t the only athletes taking shots at LeBron, as Jordan Lewis, an Australian Rules Football player, though the injury ought to have been serious, considering the way James was acting.

“Anyone heard what Lebron’s injury was??” he tweeted. “I’m tipping Torn hamstring, ACL or dislocated knee cap by the way he was carrying on!!”

Honestly, there will be something refreshing about James getting his ring finally.

Consider: Amount of discussion about Alex Rodriguez before October 2009
Amount of discussion about Alex Rodriguez after October 2009

Comparitively speaking, no one gives two *****s about him now that he's finally got a ring. He's boring now.

LeBron gets his ring tonight. I'm willing to take bets on who the Conspiracy benefits next year: Derrick Rose or Kevin Durant?
