What’s up  sneaker heads and basketball fans, with all the uproar these dope sneeks caused in the streets I  gotta pick em for the SnICk Of ThE wEeK.  The Nike Air Foamposite one “Galaxy”.

[..]

The New York Knicks defeated The Indiana Pacers for the second time in as many nights. 102-88 on the second night of a back to back, home and home series.  Indy forward Danny Granger called out The Knicks saying ” We have two very winnable games against The NY coming up”.  Knick Interim head coach Mike Woodson is 3-0 since taking over for the recently departed Mike D’Antoni.  It’s ironic that Woodson would replace the very man that brought him in to bolster The Knick defense.  Defense never being a staple of D’Antoni’s, but Woodson’s forte which has the team in a defensive mindset.

What’s up guy’s the basketball season is on and poppin’ and in honor of the Christmas season we have , The Nike Air Foamposite One “Metallic Red” These lil’ pieces are hot, hot, hot!!!!  Merry Christmas Ya’ll.

FINALLY… After a five-month lockout the NBA is back!!  NBA fans can watch five games slated to be on throughout the day.

[..]

With the NBA  lockout over and the Christmas season in full swing,  things are starting to seem regular again.  The die-hard NBA fan can get it’s fix starting on Christmas day, what a present huh?  Can’t wait, can’t wait(Bart Scott voice).  The Christmas Day schedule is looking like it’s going to be something special.   Right now the frantic fast paced free agent signing period has many fans on edge wondering what moves their teams are gonna make, and critiquing the moves already made.  The New York Knicks, with the addition of  Tyson Chandler, have formed a pretty formidable front line.  The Dallas Mavericks will try to defend their crown with the addition of the reigning sixth man of the year Lamar Odom.

Another letter from Dan Gilbert. Honestly, it seems as if the Cleveland Cavaliers’ owner is still reeling from LeBron James’ public exit last season and would like to force feed another franchise his thoughts on how basketball business should be handled. The only problem is that now instead of the New Orleans Hornets receiving something for Chris Paul’s departure, they would likely have to wait until he walks out on his own free will during next year’s free agency. Smart move Gilbert! Smart move. [..]

The most entertaining things about the lockout have not necessarily been the schedule release or the fact that the Christmas day games have officially be announced. Those things are great runner-ups but what has captured NBA fans’ attention the most is undoubtedly all of the hoopla surrounding some of these ridiculous trade rumors.

You know the ones that if you speak up enough, they seem more and more like the truth.

My hat goes off to the Los Angeles Lakers if they are able to land one of the most popular trade rumors to date as they are reportedly aiming to recruit both Chris Paul AND Dwight Howard from the New Orleans Hornets and the Orlando Magic. It would be a hell of a move that would balance the weight that both the Miami Heat and the New York Knicks have stacked their rosters with. [..]

There have been plenty of tweets surfacing from bored NBA stars with nothing else to do with their time. Nate Robinson has just added himself to the long list of men who should reconsider their latest ventures. Seattle Seahawks head coach, Pete Carroll, is encouraging the madness that is Robinson declaring himself eligible for a NFL try out. Not only does the NBA small man want to try out, but he already has a few teams in line that he would consider.

Dwayne ‘Lil Wayne’ Carter is one of the most prolific emcees in the game right now.

No matter if you are more prone to accepting the sober or Styrofoam carrying version of the rapper, there’s no way you can deny how captivating his words can be at times. Better when freestyling than when he was inking his rhymes, Wayne has released so many songs with countless sports references that it is only right IAMNBA takes part in ranking them all.

But, we are going to do it with a little bit of a ‘Watch the Throne’ addition in the mix.

JayZ has been sort of a hot topic, so we are going to add the other famed Mr. Carter’s references to our list. We have sifted through all the ones we could get our hands on and have compiled a list of the top ten sports references from the No.2 emcee from last year’s countdown of the five greatest rappers of the 21^st century, falling behind Eminem, and one half of the compilation of WTT.

Dirk Nowitzki & Co. pulled off what some people felt was unthinkable.

Not only did Dallas knock out the fiery threesome in LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, but they did so in South Beach. Game Six was an amazing triumph for the aging squad, one that many people were skeptical that the same men would be able to conquer more than once.

Nowitzki is allotted a grand amount of stability in his position because of how he has sculpted his game from the perimeter. This allows him the least amount of contact in a game even where the defense is the most trying.

The most an opponent can get away with is poking him in the eye or slipping a sharp pinky nail in his nose. Nowitzki is allotted that type of luxury because of all the work he has put in shaping his jumper to draw defenses and make it as lethal as it has come to be.

The other veterans in Dallas such as Jason Kidd are already stroking retirement. The lockout, if restored at least at the halfway mark, will provide a much shortened and rushed season for veterans of the league. [..]
