Just posted a photo instagr.am/p/NEgxvRiTMS/ — LeBron James (@KingJames) July 14, 2012 Most of our readers are Americans, being that we’re based in the States and all, although I see our analytics and know that we get hits from as far away as Brunei very day. So I have a question for my fellow Americans, especially the ones who dislike the Miami Heat and their best player: How do y’all plan to root for Team USA at the Olympics if your least favorite
NBA Photos; Retouch by @stevesolis This is not going to come as welcome news to Daryl Morey and the Houston Rockets, but there is a report out there today from an Orlando TV station that Dwight Howard is very close to being traded to the Los Angeles Lakers.

Kyrie Irving has become a must-watch entertainer, from his acting skills in “Uncle Drew“, his ability as “Coach Kyrie” to the now-infamous clip of him schooling anyone that stood in his path during scrimmage against Team USA. The latest from the reigning rookie of the year is his bold $50,000 one-on-one bet with Kobe Bryant, where some notable trash talking ensued – a battle Bryant clearly won – as you will see in the clip below.
