According to multiple sources, Chris Bosh will sign with the Miami Heat when free agency starts up. This means Dwayne Wade will re-sign with Miami.
Bosh fits in well with the Heat. He will start at power forward for Miami. That means they have money to sign two more max free agents.
This most likely means Michael Beasley will be traded this summer. He will turn into a bench warmer if ...
Reports say the New York Knicks will offer Joe Johnson a max contract right after the NBA free agency period starts July 1st.
Johnson could entice another free agent like LeBron James or Chris Bosh to the Knicks. According to the Atlanta Journal Constitution, he is willing to take less money to make room for maybe two more max free agents.
Mike D'Antoni and Donnie Walsh also look to persuade Amar'e Stoudemire ...
2010 NBA Draft Results: Luke Babbitt Was the Steal of the Draft
Posted: 26th June 2010 by FootBasket in NBA
Luke Babbitt slipped all the way down to pick 16 in the NBA Draft. I thought he would have gone to Utah at nine.
Babbitt was drafted by the Minnesota Timberwolves, but his rights were later traded to Portland for Martell Webster.
Reports say the Blazers will release the player traded with Babbitt, Ryan Gomes. So that leaves just Babbitt for Webster.
I see Babbitt having great success with the Blazers. He will ...
NBA Rumors: Al Jefferson and Jonny Flynn to Indiana Pacers?
Posted: 25th June 2010 by FootBasket in NBA
This is one trade rumor that makes a lot of sense for both teams. David Khan wants to get rid of Al Jefferson and Indiana needs another big to go along side Roy Hibbert. Indiana wants to get rid of Troy Murphy and his contract.
The rumor is Al Jefferson and Jonny Flynn for Troy Murphy, Brandon Rush, Tyler Hansbrough, and a future draft pick.
Indiana could part ways with both Hansbrough ...
Pacers No. 10 Pick to Oklahoma City for Eric Maynor, 18th, and 21st Picks?
Posted: 24th June 2010 by FootBasket in NBA
The Indiana Pacers and the Oklahoma City Thunder are in serious talks about sending Eric Maynor, the 18th, and the 21st picks for the No. 10 pick from Indiana.
Overall, why not make this deal happen if you're both teams?
Oklahoma City gets the big man they covet, in someone like Ed Davis. Also, the Thunder would still have the No. 26 pick tonight.
Then, Indiana gets a point guard that they ...
It's the middle of June and still nobody wants Terrell Owens. One team that could take chance on Terrell Owens could be the Tennessee Titans.
The Titans need wide receiver help. All they have is Kenny Britt, Nate Washington, and Justin Gage. They obviously could use Terrell Owens to take on Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts.
Jeff Fisher would be a great coach for Owens as well. If this were to ...
NBA Finals Game 4: Bench Carries Celtics to 96-89 Victory
Posted: 11th June 2010 by FootBasket in NBA
The Boston Celtics beat the Los Angeles Lakers 96-89 last night.
Most of the work in the fourth quarter was done by Glen "Big Baby" Davis and Nate Robinson. They dominated the Lakers when both of them came in.
Davis had 18 points and Robinson added 12 points in the Celtics' 36-point fourth quarter.
Like I said before, Glen Davis should be in the starting lineup over Kendrick Perkins.
Glen Davis gives a huge ...
Strasburg Mania: Washington Nationals’ Stephen Strasburg Is the Real Deal
Posted: 9th June 2010 by FootBasket in MLB
Stephen Strasburg threw a gem in his MLB debut for the Washington Nationals. He struck out 14 batters in seven innings.
Strasburg will be the best pitcher in the MLB for a long time.
Ever since his college days at San Diego State, Stephen Strasburg has been advertised to be the No. 1 pick in the MLB Draft whenever he took the mound.
He has a nasty fastball that topped over 100 miles ...

Lakers vs. Celtics Game 3: Glen “Big Baby” Davis Is The Boston Celtics’ X Factor
Posted: 8th June 2010 by FootBasket in NBA
I'm not going to talk about how the Los Angeles Lakers won game three. I'm going to talk about Glen Davis being the x factor for the Boston Celtics.
Davis was the main player who kept Boston close in game three. I know everyone is going to say Kevin Garnett was the star of last night's game, but when he went to the bench Davis came in and played almost the same ...
