Lebron James Scores 52 In New York In Cavs Win

Lebron James tried to one-up Kobe Bryant, but was only able to manage 52 points in the Cleveland Cavaliers 107-102 win over the hapless new York Knicks. James who is neck and neck with Bryant for the MVP trophy has now scored 50 more than once at the Garden which he has always loved playing at. Many people think that this could become his playgrounds in the next few years. I do know if that is going to happen, but you never know I guess we will have t0o wait and see if that actually happens or not.

Houston Texans My Sleeper Team

Every year it seems we have a team in the NFL we just do not plan on doing well and this year it was the Arizona Cardinals who came out of nowhere to really surprise some people. Who could be the next team that steps up to surprise a lot of people. My personal pick will be the Houston Texans. I know everyone will say I am crazy, but they have enough talent to get it done and they are young and only getting better.

The Texans finished up last year real well and the schedule should not be too tough for them. They have plenty of weapons and if they can just get consistent play out of the quarterback position they will be fine. Last year the quarterback position cost them some games and turnovers was another big problem. I like the Houston Texans and the direction they are going so we will see if I am right or if it is just another blown hunch I've had.

NBA Wild Season So Far

Well now that the NFL season is done besides the Pro Bowl it is time to turn our attention to the NBA season and some interesting things are happening right now. In the Eastern Conference you have the Boston Celtics, Cleveland Cavaliers, and the Orlando Magic as the cream of the crop. With only one team that can go to the finals it will be interesting to see these Big three slug it out. Another team to watch in the Eastern Conference is the Atlanta Hawks as they are much better than people give them credit for.



The Western Conference is just as interesting as well with the Los Angeles Lakers looking to be the cream of the crop. San Antonio and Denver are two other teams to watch as well. I do like the Lakers out west even without Bynum their center who maybe lost for some time. The Western conference does have a lot of teams that could get hot in the second half so you just never know anymore.

One of the biggest things that these teams will have to deal with is injuries. As the season goes along they will pile up so we will have to see what a difference it really makes down the stretch. I think it could impact several teams in a big way if they lose any players for a prolonged period of time.

Ray Allen Does It Again For Celtics

Ray Allen seems to live for these moments and he made another one last night for the highlight reel. Allen took a pass from Paul Pierce and hit a three pointer with 0.5 seconds left on the clock to give the Boston Celtics a 100-99 win over the 76ers. The Celtics were without Kevin Garnett, but they still were able to get their 12th straight win. The Celtics Big Three or Big Two last night again made the plays when they were needed and that is all that really matters and as long as they do they will be tough to unseat as NBA Champion.

Kobe Bryant Sets Record In New York

Kobe Bryant knows he will have to step up since Andrew Bynum is not available for awhile so what did he do last night drop 61 points on the New York Knicks. Bryant heard heckles, boos, and even some MVP chants as he help his Los Angeles Lakers to a 126-117 win over the New York Knicks. Bryant just help close the gap between him and Lebron James for MVP votes with this performance.

Jon Gruden, GM Allen Given The Boot

Jon Gruden and GM Bruce Allen had to know the writing was on the wall after a 9-3 collapse and no playoff for the Buccaneers this year. After a Super Bowl win a few years ago many people thought more would follow, but it never happen. Gruden could never find a quarterback that he like and that was one of his major problems no consistency at that spot. Other issues were also a problem for Gruden as well such as he was suppose to know offense real well, but the Buccaneers struggled in that department as well.

A few weeks back rumor was some of the players wanted to see him go so I guess that group go exactly what they wanted. it will be interesting to see who the Buccaneers hire to bring them back to where they want to be. They usually bring in a big name so it will be interesting to see who they do hire in the end.

Who's The Best In The NBA?

This is a question that it seems is always changing from week to week anymore. At one time we thought the Boston Celtics were the best, but they went on a losing streak. Than maybe the Lakers,Cavaliers, and who ever else might want to toss their had into the fire. After looking over all the teams I have come to just one conclusion and that is there is no one team that is so much better than anyone else.

Some weeks some teams play better than others, but right now I really cannot say one team stands way above every other one. In my mind I think we should wait to past judgement until later in the year that way we will better know who is playing their best basketball. It is just too early to make an opinion just yet.
