Tweet of the Day went to Deron Williams, who found himself back home in New York City and was greeted by one bizarre chicken-lizard looking creature. Unusual encounters aside, Williams makes his return to the States after attaining his second consecutive gold medal with Team USA. He managed to play 10 minutes in the final game  of the Olympics against Spain and scored six points. The experience should give him a boost of confidence, as he prepares for an exciting

Tweet of the Day goes to Shaquille O’Neal for sending a congratulatory note and a word of advice to Dwight Howard, who will don a Lakers jersey for the upcoming season. O’Neal was actually the first person to say that the four-team trade would go through, as you can see from his Tweet of the Day from Thursday. It’s no secret that O’Neal is not the biggest fan of Howard for reasons not worth discussing (“Superman” related), so it’s nice

Tweet of the Day goes to Shaquille O’Neal, who apparently heard that the Dwight Howard deal is “going down”.
