Dwyane Wade Comeback

Dwyane Wade will try to come back this season.

"It could have been easy for me just to shut it down. You don't know if you're going to be able to attack the same way and dive on the floor the same way. I'll find out after therapy and rehab how my body responds to things."
-- Dwyane Wade

The Miami Heat guard said Monday he has decided to delay surgery and rehabilitate his dislocated left shoulder with the goal of returning for the playoffs.

"My decision for the next two to three weeks is to rehab with the possibility of coming back, but with no guarantee," Wade said. "I'll find out after therapy and rehab how my body responds to things."

Wade was hurt Feb. 21 at Houston. He underwent extensive tests and received a second opinion Friday from specialist Dr. James Andrews before deciding he would try to return. Read complet article here...

Elton Brand and Vitamin Water

Elton Brand states:

Glaceau and I have made a pact to work together. I will drink a Vitamin Water "energy"-tropical citrus before every game and do my part. As long as I get the shots, I will shoot over 52% from the field while getting those ten boards a game. By Jan, Feb the team and I will be rolling. I loved this product for a while now so Its an easy partnership. Plus, I heard that drink that "ades gators" is the leading cause of tooth decay for teens and young adults.

This is coming start from his own blog check it out
!

I never knew that other stuff is the leading cause of tooth decay for teens and young adults. Though, I know it has made it's way to just about all the countries you can think name.

Kobe Bryant, How Well, Do You Know Him?

How well do you know Kobe Bryant #24 of the Lakers?

Well, did you know that Kobe...

Kobe is or has planned on buying a chopper to get to and from games: "It's going to eliminate traffic. It'll take me only 15 minutes to get to games."

Kobe Bryant believes in UFOs.

Kobe Bryants biggest reget stated by him was not working harder to make his relationship with Shaq function.

The only person who can "put him in his place": Phil Jackson.

Before the terminally ill child passed away, Kobe spent five hours with him as part of the Make-A-Wish Foundation this summer.

Kobe wakes up at 4.30AM for workouts. Some days, he'll work out for 8 hours. That, friends, is insane.

Kobe's wardrobe is valued at nearly $1 Mil.

Sun Sun Ming a 7-foot-9, 370-pound Sun Ming Ming from China to California to Kansas to North Carolina made its latest stop Wednesday in the back room of a Chinese restaurant in this tony Washington, D.C., suburb.

Greg Oden Shots Better Left Handed....

If you were like just about any other observer, and you watch Greg Oden play you might think this. Wow, I did not know that Greg Oden was a lefty, but unknowing that he has injured his right wrist. But, the truth behold his really is right handed.

It would have been natural to assume as much in watching the 7-1, 280-pound center dunk the ball with his left hand and shoot free throws at a 50-70 percent clip. For anyone that had never actually seen Oden play, it was a forgiveable mistake.

It's hard to believe that a Greg Oden has worked hard enought to shoot better left handed free throws than most NBA big man! I can not believe it!

50 82 .610

Emeka Okafor .601
Kwame Brown .402
Shaquille O'Neal .450
Ben Wallace .418

Come on! You have to be kidding me! One thing is for sure someone one is putting in the work, and others are making a million and sure not from making free throws!

Chris Bosh

Chris Bosh

Another example of what not to do. This is a clip that shows right up the point of the tech given to Bosh. While it seems very small and little, and not much to it. None the less Chis Bosh was called for a tech.

One thing that my coach would always tell us were act like you have done it before. This is very good way of acting with character on the court. Has Chris Bosh dunked many of times? The simple answer is YES! So what's the whole point of even giving that look like your all that, and it was nothing really all that special!

Think about some of the other players that will just go out and play all the time, with out doing the little stupid stuff such as what this clip shows.

Luke Walton

Luke Walton, and alittle information on the guy. Here is a pretty good little right up that Luke is featured in SI.com.

Who know that Luke has:
a tattoo of the Grateful Dead dancing skeletons, but instead of having top hats and canes they're spinning basketballs.
friends with two guys from That '70s Show -- Wil [Wilmer Valderrama] and Danny [Masterson]. They're just funny.
