Some performers transcend time. Their work is too great; too inspiring; too moving to ever be forgotten. Michael Jackson, otherwise known as the King of Pop, is one such performer. Sunday, the 2014 Billboard Music Awards invested loads of money into developing technology to showcase a hologram performance of “Slave to the Rhythm” by the King of Pop from his latest posthumous album, Xscape. Enjoying the new MJ album on a Monday afternoon drive, Toronto Raptors forward Patrick Patterson seemed to get into
Scotto: Brooklyn’s Defining Moments
The Brooklyn Nets sent a message to the Toronto Raptors and Drake. Brooklyn let Toronto know the “dinosaurs” aren’t extinct yet and trolled Drake unlike anyone has ever before. Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce turned the clock back to their collective Boston Celtics heydays. Joe Johnson continued to be the offensive catalyst from the wing by drawing double-teams and scoring at will when isolated. Deron Williams responded to heavy criticism by overcoming an ankle injury and playing like a $100 million franchise

Sprung: Purpose of Pierce, Garnett in question after Nets’ Game 5 loss
Why did the Nets acquire Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett from Boston last offseason, mortgaging key future assets to do so? To help win a championship?
