Jamal Crawford
Jamal Crawford believes better times are ahead for Ben Gordon, who will play for the Charlotte Bobcats come next season. Although Gordon failed to produce last season as a starter, it’s possible that he may not have been prepared for the truncated season – he expected the lockout to last for two seasons. Why Joe Dumars signed him to a $55 million contract in the first place remains a mystery, given the fact that Richard Hamilton was still on

SH Blog: Amare Stoudemire fined $50,000, Houston’s grand plan, Brandon Roy’s return

by

If there is one thing athletes and celebrities can learn from the mistake Amare Stoudemire made over the past weekend, it’s to utilize the “block” button when encountering an unpleasant “fan” on twitter. In today’s news, you’ll find out just how much Stoudemire had to pay for his short-sighted decision, the Rockets grand plan and their subsequent trade with the  Timberwolves, changes in the Pacers front office and much more. Stoudemire was fined for the derogatory direct message he sent to a

SH Blog: Anthony Davis joins “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon”

by

The soon-to-be No. 1 overall draft pick Anthony Davis had a little fun last night, joining “Late Night With Jimmy Fallon” to discuss his excitement of being drafted on Thursday (6/28/12) and how his patented eyebrow has a life of its own in the form of twitter and facebook. He also plays a game of “free throw” contest with Fallon, throwing strange objects and food at the basket (is that fun?). Along the way, we learn of Davis’ superstition of

Tweet of the Day goes to T. J. Ford, who had nothing but positive things to say about Larry Bird as a leader and expressed his appreciation for him. The tweet came amid a surprising development, with Bird preparing to step down as the president of the Indiana Pacers (we’ll have it in our news section later today) just days after former C.E.O. Donnie Walsh was hired to be a part of the organization again in some capacity. The

Mike Miller
In a not-so-shocking development, Mike Miller will have his ailing back checked by one of the best (apparently) in Dr. Barth Green. Some have openly wondered whether Miller should retire – despite the fact that he is only 32 – due to a constant breakdown of his body, but judging by the tweet above, he doesn’t appear ready to call it quits just yet. His wife doesn’t think so either. After being a non-factor for much of the playoffs,

SH Blog: A complete highlight video of LeBron James in 2012 playoffs

by

The Miami Heat celebrated their 2011-2012 championship today with a parade, thanks in large part to LeBron James’ monstrous performance throughout the entire playoffs. James posted pedestrian numbers (for his standards) in his playoff run last season, averaging 23.7 points on 46.6 percent shooting, 8.4 rebounds and 5.9 assists. This postseason, however, his performance level returned to his do-it-all Cleveland days, minus the fourth quarter disappearances. With an improved offensive game and a willingness to play closer to the basket, James

Tweet of the Day: Shane Battier

by

Shane Battier was kind enough to capture some of the celebratory moments during Heat Parade day, including this “cray” moment of Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh and LeBron James having their individual moments with the championship trophy. Some of the better moments during the celebration includes an interview with Eddy Curry, who has never played a single playoff minute in his life, raucous cheers for Mike Miller and a video showing Mario Chalmers getting yelled at by everyone. The good
