If you haven’t heard about Canadian pop star Justin Bieber’s infamous DUI earlier this week, you must be living under a rock.

Bieber was later charged with driving while intoxicated, resisting arrest, and using an invalid driver’s licence. In a world

SH Blog: Rose likely to play in World Cup; is Melo still likely to leave NY?
If you’re a regular reader of my weekend blogs, you might know that I grew up in Baltimore, and I’m more than a little proud of my city. We’ve got a storied history of people who became legends in their fields leaving town and becoming closely associated with bigger cities with brighter lights. Tupac Shakur and Babe Ruth both went to high school in Baltimore, just to name a couple. Another former Baltimore resident is Carmelo Anthony. He attended Towson Catholic
Fantasy Spin: Saturday, January 25, 2014
Somehow I missed recommending Carmelo Anthony/NYK. Anyone who didn’t have Melo in their lineup last night had a tough time earning cash at DraftStreet, as the Knicks main man had the game of the year, smashing New York’s losing streak and the Bobcats in one go. I tweeted at my followers yesterday afternoon that the $5/$10,000 GPP was headed for a possible overlay, and sure enough when contest registration closed the participants had a 10.5% overlay. That’s the equivalent of

NBA players react to Carmelo Anthony’s historical night
It has been a down year of sorts for Carmelo Anthony and the New York Knicks. After coming off a year in which they were the second best team in the Eastern Conference, the Knicks have struggled mightily to a 16-27 record – fifth-worst in the conference. With news that offseason acquisition Andrea Bargnani would be out indefinitely due to a torn elbow ligament, some wondered whether the team’s fortunes would turn for the better. The reason? Anthony would return to the
SH Blog: Lowry Makes All-Star Case with Triple-Double; Nash BackTuesday?; Big Weekend With No Football
As we head into the NBA season’s first football-less weekend, it’s a great chance for the league to showcase itself on the national stage.

Tweet of the Day: Jeremy Lin And Volvo Produce Training Regimen
Nearly two years ago, March of 2012, Volvo decided to cash in on the growing popularity of then New York Knicks point guard Jeremy Lin. The central figure of the national Linsanity craze chose to sign with Volvo because their vehicles and branding were, as he described it, “high quality but … also affordable and relatable.” 22 months later, the now Houston Rockets guard and the Chinese-owned car company have paired up to create a comical ad campaign centered around a new
Sixth Man Rankings: Markieff Morris is forcing his way into the conversation
After starting off the season atop the Sixth Man Rankings and quickly dropping out, Phoenix Suns forward Markieff Morris has climbed his way back into the top spot following consecutive weeks of efficient scoring. Despite playing the entire month of January without star point guard Eric Bledsoe – out indefinitely due to knee surgery – Phoenix still surprisingly stands seven games above .500. They are currently the seventh seed in a loaded Western Conference. Coach Jeff Hornacek is in his first year
