Chris Bosh's New Home


For all you real estate buffs out there, check out the photos of Chris Bosh's new home in South Beach.
Bosh may be the third guy in the Miami Heat's line-up, but his house is worth top dollar at $12.5 million. This is over $3 million more than Lebron James' new home in the neighborhood. Here is a link to photos of James's home.

Which do you prefer? They both seem a bit too Miami Vice meets the Hogans to me!

He's On Fire!



Just an update on who is hot right now on the court and who is melting the ice:
  • In the NHL it is all about the Pittsburgh Penguins and their star Sidney Crosby - yea that guy from the Reebok commercials. Crosby in on a 17 game scoring streak with 20 goals and 15 assists, leading the Penguins to an 11 game winning streak. Better start taking note of Crosby, he may just be the NHL's guy to bring hockey more into the mainstream. Good looks and able to score - what else do we need?
  • The Miami Heat seem to have controlled their fire. Since calling a team meeting a few weeks ago the team has gone on a winning streak. Lebron James had 33 points and Dwayne Wade 28 more in the Heat's win over the Utah Jazz last night. Looks like a game plan is being executed as a team instead of hot shots playing on their own.
  • And in NYC, Raymond Felton, came alive alongside potential NBA MVP Amare Stoudamire. Stoudamire had another 30 point game against the Toronto Raptors last night, yet it was Felton who stole the show. Felton had 28 points, 11 assists, and the game winning three-pointer in the win. His last shot bounced on the rim five times prior to going in! Sometimes you need a little luck - or maybe Amare would have just slammed it in if it bounced out. Bottom line: teamwork wins games, and ultimately brings playoffs hope back to the big apple.

What to Watch Tonight: Lebron Goes Back to Cleveland

Since Lebron James' "Decision" to abandon the Cleveland Cavaliers and move to the Miami Heat, today has been an anticipated day on the calendar, because it is the first time James will return to Cleveland. You would think that Lebron, and the owner of the Cavaliers, Dan Gilbert, would be over this hoopla by now, but clearly not.

It has just been revealed that Gilbert has engaged a law firm to investigate James' move to Miami. Gilbert has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to launch a tampering claim - basically saying that Miami illegally contacted James while still in Cleveland. Gilbert must be so bitter about losing James (and the millions that went with him) that he has lost all rationality. He is spending an absurd amount of money on this investigation, with the best case scenario only awarding him a draft pick! Even his executives have advised him against pursuing this investigation.

The pride of men is so strong, that sometimes they lose sight of how their actions ultimate effect their image. Lebron tried to be Mr. Good Guy with his "Decision" at the Boys and Girls Club and his new Nike campaign, but ultimately became the most hated sports figure by failing to accept any wrongdoing. And now Gilbert, unable to accept losing James, is irrationally fighting and spending to place blame elsewhere. Clearly, boys will always be boys - when will they grow up and accept their place and move on?

Defeated? - Heat lose to Celtics in Season Opener

The 2010 NBA season opened last night with Lebron James and the supposedly unstoppable Miami Heat, with the supporting cast of Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh, losing to the Boston Celtics, 80-88. Hopes of an undefeated season were quickly distinguished as the Big Three committed 15 of the team's 17 turnovers. Lebron still had a big night with 31 points, but Wade and Bosh failed to adequately support their new star. The Heat will still be a powerhouse, but it is going to take more time than expected for the Big Three to click. Just remember how the cast of "Friends" produced more natural interactions after the first few seasons...Miami, have faith. Your time to reign is still approaching.

For a quick run down of the 20 questions of the 2010 NBA season, click here. It is a great article from ESPN that breaks down the issues in a way we can all understand. Enjoy!

Wade and Union Getting Frisky in front of the Kids?

Beautiful Gabrielle Union, girlfriend of Dwayne Wade, the now sidekick to Lebron James' Miami Heat, has won the lawsuit filed against her by Wade's ex-wife. Wade's ex-wife filed suit against Union for conducting in sexual foreplay with Wade in front of the ex-couple's children. Wade and Union denied the allegations and fortunately for them, the judge dismissed the case.

But, the judge only dismissed the case on a formality - improper jurisdiction (meaning, that the ex-wife did not bring the suit in the proper court). Therefore, the merits of the ex-wife's claim were never heard.

So, is Union really getting too frisky in front of Wade's kids? The jury is still out on that one, but for the time being, Union and Wade are in the clear of any legal sanctions. Yet, dealing with Wade's crazy ex-wife is going to be enough of a punishment for years to come, as they battle raising Wade's children. Cheers to Union for loving her man so much that she is willing to put up with his ex-wife's drama. Or does she really just need a boost to her career?
