Boston

June 22nd was a good day for hoops in Boston thanks to the 7th annual Biv20K Blacktop Classic. Hosted by Michael Bivins of Bell Biv Deveo of ‘Poison’ fame (never trust a big butt and a smile) who is actually from Beantown and features teams made up from players hailing from both Boston and New [...]

Chris Paul is a very powerful man in Los Angeles. He has only been with the Clippers for a short while, but in that time, he has been rumored as being the one guy who was indirectly responsible for the team not bringing back head coach Vinny Del Negro. In Paul’s defense, he denies that. [...]

LeBron James knew who it was that didn’t vote for him as the NBA’s MVP, in a matter of speaking. He didn’t know specifically that it was Gary Washburn of The Boston Globe who voted for Carmelo Anthony, but when pressed about it, he said he had an idea that it was someone from “New [...]
