Is it all LeBron's fault?

Soccer is crazy:

England’s Premier League banned third-party ownership of players after Carlos Tevez’s 2007 move to Manchester United from West Ham was held up in a dispute because Media Sports Investment Group Inc. and Just Sports Inc. owned part of the Argentine striker’s transfer rights.

Sella di Monteluce, son of the Count and Countess Sella di Monteluce, bought a share in the rights of at least four South American players through his contacts with Kentaro and other player agencies, Wynne said, without identifying them. Sella di Monteluce, who is based in London, wasn’t immediately available for comment, Wynne said.

Soccer ruling body FIFA’s policy is that investment in soccer players is only illegitimate if it influences transfers. Investors get around that in Brazil by maintaining they are passive investors in players, according to Law, the Arsenal adviser.

I can buy tranfer rights of soccer players?

Players often talk about partnership w/NBA. Ex-union chief Grantham tells USA Today: "They're employees. They're not partners."

Preach!

Don't worry: the era of robot players will be ushered in by this strike, and until they gain full consciousness and autonomy in the robo uprising of 2039, it will be a golden age for the NBA.

This is a really stupid thing to say.


Unlike Lebron the Ducks played great in the 4th quarter

LeBron, Wade, Bosh, and Carmello, all on the sideline. They ruined the NBA, then they ruined the Ducks title chances. I hate those guys.

The Cavs' problem was they used their cap space as best they could to surround LeBron with players to win, and they got saddled with a poor cap position and players like an over the hill Ben Wallace.

Why not mention the Celtics, who got three perennial all stars, trading for two of them and not giving up much?

The Cavs' other problem was they were confused, and they thought LeBron James was Michael Jordan instead of LeBron James.

Hopefully they go broke if the lockout lasts for much longer! Too bad they have those lucrative shoe deals.

If only they were as good in June as they were in January.

You feel sorry for the stupid owner? He lazily waited years until LeBron was close to leaving before trying to surround him with talent. Too little, too late.
