each team being Jason Hanson, Chauncey Billups, Nicklas Lidstrom,
and Magglio Ordonez. Let the festivities continue! Semifinal #1: Jason Hanson vs. Chauncey Billups Jason Hanson (Big Al, SideLion Report) When [Ace] asked me to pick the Detroit Lions player of the decade as part of his "Detroit Athlete of the Decade" project, I knew it would be ...
"Kobe,” people in Buenos Aires will be warning,
“be careful what you wish for.”
Yao Ming spoke of his disappointment that China
lost to Lithuania and missed out on the semi-finals
at the Beijing Games but also expressed his belief that the national team had played better basketball than ever before.
Who am I to disagree with the NY
Times? "With his persistent vocal leadership, his rugged rebounding
and his ability to drive to the hoop at will, James has outplayed Bryant. James has better statistics, has played multiple positions, and has emerged as the team’s leader."

Just days after news broke that the NBA
was disallowed to talk or deal with Iranian superstar
Hamed Ehadadi, as well as other Iranian basketball players. Ehadadi is a 23-year old, 7-2 Persian center with potential. Many basketball fans and scouts were able to see Haddadi for the first time in the 2008 Olympics in which [...]
Ladies and gentlemen, I have extremely bad news
to impart on you today. The get together of
old Warriors is no more. Donyell Marshall has been....waived. The end of his career? Possibly. He's not young, and hasn't been seriously used since 2 or 3 years ago. If he does sign a contract, it will probably be the veteran minimum. Reguardless, I say Adieu, Mr.Marshall. There goes my dreams of the ...
It was bound to happen. When you put
players on the floor and have them going full
speed, injuries are going to amass, the same as any other sport. When it's players fighting for the pride of their countries, it's even more likely. But man, Bucks fans have to be asking "Yeah, but why did it have to happen to us?" Less than a month after inking a five year,$60 million contract extension, ...
Is there any chance this story became garbled
in translation? Two nearly eighty-year-old Chinese women were not
sentenced to a year of labor. Were they? LeBron and crew are effectively silenced by the staggeringly athletic yet politically gridlocked Olympic Games;...
Chinese authorities have sentenced two women in their
70s to a year's "re-education through labour" after they
applied to protest during the Olympic games, a relative said today. This week, officials said they had not approved a single permit for a demonstration, despite designating three parks as protest zones.

Paulie D's fabulous links.
NY Times: Team USA Cruses Australia to Cruise
to Semis Well, Team You Can't See Me put
a beat down on the Boomers. You know guys, that's LeBron's way of saying, "That's what you get for making the friendly close". Team Oh You Didn't Know? is lined up for Manu Ginobli's Argentina who held on for a 80:78 win over Greece. I watched a few minutes, and it was sloppy, sloppy basketball.
I have in my hands a copy of
the settlement agreement and will get back to you
all if I note any details. I know that shared history is a big deal to people. Per the agreement basically the Seattle team when it is established gets exlusive use to colors, logos, uniforms, etc. Seattle gets orginal banners, trophys, etc. Both teams shall be able to reference historical players, statistics, ...
I do not know if Michael Phelps has
filed a restraining order against this guy, but now
that he has all of those Gold Medals , he might want to. The SwimNetwork guy wants to shave Michael Phelps , and I do not think he is kidding. Here are 2 run ins he has had with the SwimNetwork guy.
Today, the four quarter finals of the Olympic
Basketball Tournament for Men saw only one close game.
Luckily, I had the possibility to see at least the second half of this thriller. The day started with the game between Spain and Croatia. And Spain came up with a nice 13 points win over a Croatian team that lost the game already in the first quarter where the Spanish build their lead to ...
Been there. Done that.
The collective patience of the Hong Kong LEGO
User Group (HKLUG) is stunning. I tangled with LEGOs
once or twice. Squares and rectangles in my hands, I made larger squares and rectangles. Brightly colored, yet sorely lacking in creativity. Constructing a miniature LEGO Beijing Olympic? Ridiculous. Not possible. Additional geometric configurations would be required.

Newsday reported that the Cavs have interest in
Zach Randolph: This rumor surfaced with a one-line mention
in a Cleveland report late last week and blew up on the web because there's not much happening out there right now. Basically the talk was that the Cavs were talking to the Knicks about a big man. It did not specify Zach Randolph, but that's always the assumption when you're ...
During the remainder of the Olympic men's basketball
tournament, FanHouse will give you 5 Things to watch
for in each game. Will Yao play mad? On Monday, Chinese coach Jonas Kazlauskas held Yao Ming to seven minutes in the second half. Yao was furious . We assume he's gotten over things. If he hasn't? Yao rarely plays angry; he's an extremely mature fellow, typically calm and reserved, ...
Call it a chat. A discussion. An open
forum for sharing and caring. But whatever you call
it, make sure you know it starts at 2:00 pm, which is about five minutes away. Remember, comments won't appear instantly, and we won't post everything. If two questions are similar, we might only take one. If two comments are close, we might only push one. And so on. We're looking to flow like the river, ...
Real Clear Sports passes along the info that
the midday talk radio show on DC's WJFK, Big
O and Dukes, scored an amazing interview with the Wizards' Gilbert Arenas today. The guard was his usual awesome self, and talked about video games, the Wizards, criticism and the possibility of a reality show. Wait what?!?! "Ya know, it's funny. I got a -- you ever seen the show, 'Rob and Big?' ...
