Clearly it’s a new day for the Charlotte Bobcats as a franchise. First Larry Brown was out, then Paul Silas was in. Now, it appears Michael Jordan is trying to bring one of Charlotte’s former stars back to where his career began. Read More »

Akomplice x Michael J. LeBrecht II “The Chosen One” T-Shirt

Akomplice x Michael J. LeBrecht II "The Chosen One" T-Shirt

Anyone that knows the brand Akomplice, knows that they’re constantly producing some of the best clothing out there. So it should come as no surprise to you when you hear that they’ve collaborated with celebrated photographer Michael J. LeBrecht II to create a one-of-a-kind piece.

Back in 2002, the photo on this t-shirt was used in a Sports Illustrated feature on LeBron James titled, “Ahead Of His Class,” while the cover of the magazine aptly stated, “The Chosen One.” Many view this as the moment that LeBron was officially introduced to the world. Now eight years later, you can see they were on to something. Read More »

The Truth Will Set You Free: Paul Pierce Posterizes Lou Williams

For those of you watching the Celtics/Sixers game last night, Paul Pierce‘s dunk on Lou Williams wasn’t just for SportsCenter. If he didn’t make this steal and convert, the C’s could have lost the game.

Daily Fantasy Diagnosis: 12.23

Chris Paul

Beast of the Night: Chris Paul finished with 12 points, 6 rebounds, 14 assists and 2 steals last night in an easy victory over the Nets. He shot 75 percent (6-8) from the floor and had just one turnover. CP3 is putting up stats that make him the top dog in fantasy basketball so far this year and has somehow managed to do so in quiet fashion. Read More »

Paul Pierce puts his signature on Boston’s 14th straight win

Paul Pierce

Don’t be surprised when, before the February trade deadline, Miami and Orlando are attached to trade rumors involving guys like Jodie Meeks and Lou Williams. Don’t be alarmed when Erik Spoelstra and Stan Van Gundy begin consulting Doug Collins like he’s Robert Duvall in The Godfather, or when Dwyane Wade and Dwight Howard suddenly sidle up to Andre Iguodala like he’s their new best friend. The reason? Apparently the Sixers have the secret to keeping the Celtics in check. Read More »

Bobcats name Paul Silas interim head coach

Stephen Jackson

You figured Michael Jordan wouldn’t have shown Larry Brown (and all of his assistants) the door if he didn’t already know exactly who he wanted to succeed Brown as the Charlotte Bobcats’ head coach. Especially considering the team has another game in a few days.

Soon after it was announced that LB was out, reports surfaced that Paul Silas was among the front-runners to replace him. Just a few minutes ago, the Bobcats released this statement: Read More »

Michael Jordan’s best (and worst) choices to replace Larry Brown

Michael Jordan

In his first nine months as majority owner of an NBA franchise, Michael Jordan has been through a few years’ worth of experiences:

He watched his Charlotte Bobcats make their first-ever playoff appearance, then watched them suffer their first-ever postseason series sweep. In free agency he re-signed a promising future building block (Tyrus Thomas), then let a potential All-Star point guard walk (Ray Felton). Now he has helped facilitate the departure of his team’s head coach, Larry Brown, meaning Jordan’s next big task will be hiring a replacement. Read More »

Vince Carter Will Wear No. 25 To Honor Himself

Vince Carter

I always find it interesting to hear how a player lands on a specific jersey number. And even more when they get traded and have to make a switch. So after I read that Gilbert Arenas chose No. 1 to honor his childhood hero Penny Hardaway, I found it hilarious to hear that Vince Carter chose No. 25 to honor, well, himself. Read More »
