What Celeb Could Save the World?

Everyone has the potential to do something good for humanity. Everyone has there own idea what can be good for humanity aside from the general stuff. Could a jazzy idea or witty catch phrase be as powerful as lending millions of dollars to a charity or rescuing someone from a burning building? Not neccesarily, but it could have a similar impact. Can the same be near the equivilent of the opposite, such as ruin people's outlook on life, attitude, morals, etc. I think so, but let's focus on the positive possibilities. When Whitney houston stated in the Barbara Walters interview, "Crack is Wack" during the early nineties, the strength behind her tone and simple yet straight out no nonsense yet casual wording left a healing mark on the culture during that time. People who had their lives' ruined could lighten up their aspect just enough to rhyme out something they didn't need anymore and others could intercept the possibility of future trouble. The power of the influence of one classy(at the time, maybe still) pop star in Whitney did in seconds with clever simplicity what ten public service announcements may not have been able to do in a year. I'd love my readers to talk about a catch phrase from a celebrity that left a positive mark on their lives. If you have to include any kind of profanity, try to use some king of abbreviation or slang please. Thankyou.

Reflecting on Mj's thoughts regarding Free Agency and Team Roles

In one of the more recent interviwes with Michaeld Joradan, her reacted to the money offered to free agents as fairly out there, compared to the circmstances during his playing days. He did seem to thik it was strange to have to big stars on the team playing side by side. He seems to be considering the combination of Lebron and Dwayde near the equivelent of him being with a Majic or Bird. I can see that to as degree. Some, however, would bring up Him being with Pippen as a similar situation. I think during the time they teamed up, it may not or may have been, though Pippen was still one of my favorite players regardless. What do my readers think of this?

Knockin on The Wall

I have decided to follow the progress of one cherished rookie following the most recent NBA draft. I have chosen John Wall unanimously, him being a fiesty and agil gaurd. As i have said in a previous post, he tends to reflect the game of a young kenny Anderson, who if you aren't familiar with, can learn about from my prior post. Now, as many know, when most college players hit the big leagues, they often train and diversify there game to live up to pro calibur in order to better compete with their opponents. In Wall, you can see he is doing a lot more spinning on the break as well as crossovers going left very often. I saw some of his performance in the Reebok summer championship and saw much of the pronound D Wayde's style and approach which I think will serve Wall and his team well. Through such means, in his lightning quick first step and reflexive motion off the dribble, he can get in position for the easy pull up jumper, go to the hoop, or dish. You can tell he knows how to get around any height advantage his apponents may have over him with his sound overall instincts. He will have to learn how to get open from the screens though and challenge, or rather answer back to double teaming from opponents.

The Craft of Draft

What be goin down hoops buffs, and all you others who just want to check in with some convo about the naismith masterpiece we cal b-ball. I coould tell you aboout a lot of insights into the up coming draft and analyze who can do what and whose good for what team, however, i really don't see a whole lot of promising franchise players with the exception of the first seven or eight picks probably ensuring a first four seasons of twenty-ten stats perhaps and a descent run in the playoffs. Instead, lets talk about franchise teams rebuilding and there potential and/or likeliness to rebuild, as well as what made fans come back to fill the seats as well as the avid couch admirerers. I'll tell you one thing about John Wall. His game reminds me so much of Kenny Anderson of the New Jersey nets way back in the day of 1990-91. Kenny was able to make the all-star team after his second season, and though he didn't come up in the clutch big like he did in college, the dude still made siome impressively big shots with the nets in his early yesr with them. So, the question that seems to be a common one with much of the media at this time, is John Wall going to be like a a steve nash who can almost immediately make a team a formidable force, end up selling out after a season or two, or maybe end up like a moderately yet rawly well talented star like Kenny was. I don't have a basketball crystal ball. Many players have done amazing things in college, yet when they get in the big leagues they often don't continue their legacy to the level prior to their entrance. Some get distracted and seem to loose poise with the glitter and glamour. Others can't seem to handle the pressure to an extent, or atleast it seems that way to some. Many get disgruntled over money. I am asking all of you readers, as few as there may currently be., what do you think are the biggest reasons for players unable to carry on the legacy of their college days and why? What is the most common reason and why? Your responses can open up doors to future potential stars who may(by some wild chance) read this!
Peace out..........and too all you fans and some of you players, or both, please don't eat too much cheese before the big game....but hey, i write a basketball blog during a defense based nba dynasty, im bored out of my mind...its hard, but aint easy bein' cheezy..............


As scatterbrained as i am i didn't mention the franchise teams!... Bulls had some playoff success over the years, with somewhat of a 90's knicks defense based game. hey, whatever works. is it fun to watch? Not for me. Lakers and Celts have the reunion of a eternal rivalry, but no, besides kobe and maybe kevin, who was a tad nonexistent to me in the finals add some perks for the superstar whose hungry for action. the game has changed. . a lot of going left with little faking, attempts at trying to make the wilts out of guys like gasol. You may wonder, any other franchise ball clubs??? Well, the pistons of course... Prince has leadership qualities. They may find someone who can play a good supporting role for him and some of the vets in the late first round. I'll be more precise with the purpose of my article next time... Will that get you to actually log on to it again?
