Very sad to hear the news of my friend Dan Roundfield passing away. He taught me how to be a better player on the court & a better man off.

He averaged 14.3 points, 9.2 rebounds and 1.4 blocks

Tweet of the Day went to Ty Lawson, who took the time to answer some fan questions and declared that he is ready to bring a championship to Denver. Lawson had a breakout season in his third year in the league, averaging 16.4 points and 6.6 assists as a full-time starter, and showed great promise in the first round of the playoffs against the Los Angeles Lakers in seven games. That said, a championship for next season or the near future

Kobe and @jharden13 setting up for the 100M final instagr.am/p/N9gf0Qs94Z/ — Kevin Love (@kevinlove) August 5, 2012                     There were lots of candidates for Tweet of the Day today as athletes flocked to the main Olympic Stadium to watch Usain Bolt win the 100 meters — again. The race was not shown live on television in America. Absolutely, unfathomably astounding. Watching the Olympics on NBC is an exercise in forehead-banging. Why can’t they just show the race live for the hard-core sports fans, then show it

Shaq on the free throw line today!!! My bad USA. Good win for us. Needed a game like that. On to the next. — Kevin Love (@kevinlove) August 4, 2012 Kevin Love shot just 3-for-8 from the foul line in Saturday’s nail-biter of a victory over Lithuania, and the Americans missed 12 shots in all from the charity stripe before being bailed out by LeBron James down the stretch. What can we take from this game? I go into it in a little more

London Cabs >>>>>> NYC Cabs #Legroominstagr.am/p/N4Iz7uIjj5/ — Deron Williams (@DeronWilliams) August 3, 2012   Team USA was given the day off Thursday by coach Mike Krzyzewski so they could take in a few Olympic sports from the stands. At the Olympics, there is special seating reserved for athletes from different competitions. Kobe Bryant went to see Roger Federer play tennis, and LeBron James watched Michael Phelps win the 100 meter butterfly. It appears we can discern the means of transportation Deron Williams used to

Tweet of the Night belongs to Carl Landry, who showed plenty of excitement about his newest team – The Golden State Warriors.
