daily dose of Sports

with the all-star weekend just around the corner, i'm getting into the mix of all-star posts in the blogosphere. we all know by now that me williams will be in the all-star game after all after he was named as chris bosh's replacement. chris paul will also play at the all-star game so i think carmelo anthony will not be playing this weekend. with those things out of the way, here we go with the top five nba all-star logos in my book: at number 5 is the logo used for the 2001 nba all-star held at the mci center in washington d.c. i think the reason why i picked this is the person currently residing in the white house. number 4 is this number from the all-star game in 1981, three years before i was born. :D what i like about this logo is its simplicity and the way they use the colors on the logo. number 3 on the list is the logo used for the all-star game in las vegas. they surely picked the right inspiration for this logo. number 2 is the logo for next year's all-star ga...

gilbert arenas a.k.a. agent zero and deshawn stevenson had their fun with words before the series between the wizards and the cavs started. but the wizards now looked like a team that can beat boston three times but does not have what it takes to beat lebron and co. in game 2 of the series, the cavs crushed the wizards to take a 2-game advantage before the series moves to washington. lebron had a near triple-double with 30 points, 12 assists and 9 rebounds. the cavs recorded their best game in the playoffs with a 30-point beating of the wizards, 116-86. the wizards' "big three" of arenas , caron butler and antawn jamison failed to rise to the occasion as they were held to just 28 points by the cavs. with this series looking to be more and more dismal for the wizards after caling out lebron james , i would not be surprised if the king takes over in games 3 and 4 to secure a sweep.

lebron james proved to the wizards once again why he is king when the cleveland cavs beat the washington wizards 93-86 to take game one of their best-of-seven series. as usual, LBJ led the cavs with 32 points and great plays down the stretch. this would be the third time that the two teams are facing each other in the first round with the cavs holding a 2-0 edge over the wizards. while the wizards have the distinction of being the only team to beat the boston celtics three times this year, they still need to get past the king. lebron received a lot of support from zydrunas ilgauskas . big z scored 22 points along with 11 rebounds. an interesting thing to note though is that even with his 32 points, the night did not end well for lebron (somehow) as he missed two free throws. by that time though (21 seconds), the cavs are already up by six, 90-84. looks like agent zero & co. needs to find a way to beat lebron and the cavs or they would have to admit that calling out lebron ...

it's the 30th which means.... payday.. :D apart from that, i decided to make my end-of -the month post a day earlier with this photo of the month: that of course is caron butler celebrating their second win over nba's best, the boston celtics. how tough would the wizards be when agent zero returns? plus, here are some photos i have collected through the week: that's minnesota t'wolves' gerald green doing his thing above the rim he'll be defending his slam dunk crown this coming all-star break that's kb24 and lbj, not checking out the scoreboard or green's slam, but up at the staple center's leaking roof. only it turns out that the roof is not leaking at all. and here, manu just being his old it's-my-ball self trying to get through new orleans hornets' defense.
