FAN UP, MIAMI.
Let’s hope that the Celtics, Knicks, Bulls, or Pacers can get them to eat some humble pie to go with that champagne in the playoffs.
Nelson Laut likes all sports like the NBA, MLB, NFL, NHL. Heck Nelson Laut evens likes ultimate frisby. Wait why am I talking in third person? Anyhoo, this page is just a way for me to share my love for the world of sports.
Got a question? Drop me a line!

From Celticslife.com : Kevin Garnett gets photobombed by teammates - NBA photobombing hits an all-time high
After this past weekend’s Celtics-Wizards game, Kevin Garnett did a post-game interview where he was photobombed by Jeff Green, Courtney Lee, and Avery Bradley. It was very amusing but I’ve got to know one thing: Are NBA players trying to one-up each other in photobombing?
Looking back this past season, it looks as if Lebron James and Chris Bosh were the photobomb originators (if anyone can find anything earlier let me know). This must be a new trend among the players I guess but I really want to see coaches photobombing players. If anyone has seen this shoot me a link!

ESPN: NIKE's LEBRON X shoe won't be $315 after all
Don’t get excited Sneakerheads! Although Nike will not be selling the tricked out plus version of the Lebron X for $315, ESPN is reporting that Nike will be selling it for a mere $270. Before you start yelling “boo” at the price, you have to keep in mind that this does have Nike+ technology in it and this shoe is clearly for basketball players looking to track their improvements and progress on the court. I guess the sneaker camping lines will be a little shorter with that price tag…

ESPN: Nike to sell next Lebron sneaker model for over $300
I am the kind of guy that appreciates shoe and sneaker collectors. I check out Kicksonfire.com, Nicekicks.com and Counterkicks.com to see the latest and greatest sneakers that collectors are clamoring for and with this news of Nike scheduling to release the special version of the Lebron X for possibly over $300 it’s kind of crazy. People should know that there are two versions of this show and the $300 shoe is for the Nike+ enabled version but this price is pretty crazy but then again I’ve seen shoe collectors shell out a lot of cash for even used sneakers. I guess this move by Nike is to stop resellers from selling the shoe at that price.

Lebron James says that 2012 U.S. Basketball Team could beat the 1992 Deam Team
I think Lebron James is still drunk from all the champagne that he drunk from that NBA Finals run with the Miami Heat.
The 2012 team may be a bit more versatile and younger than the players that played on the 1992 Dream Team but make no mistake that the Dream Team would still easily win. The 2012 Olympic Mens Basketball team lacks in team play and is still too egotistical (except for Kevin Durant and James Harden who put the team above themselves) to accept deferring to the right player when in the right game play situation.
Too bad we’ll never get the chance to see these two teams play. But if it ever was possible for them to play, Nelson Laut would say that final score would be Dream Team wins agains the 2012 U.S. Mens Basketball Team 125 - 103.

Lebron James shows U.S. Olympic Mens Basketball teammate Kevin Durant his “Unstoppable Move” during practice. If Lebron James does this move during every NBA game next season for the Miami Heat, he may truly become unstoppable hahahaha just kidding.

TEAM USA demolishes Dominican Republic in Basketball Exhibition
Not that anyone is surprised, the U.S. Olympic Basketball team beats the Dominican Republic led by the hot hand of Kevin Durant with 24 points and 10 rebounds. Of course as they get closer to the Olympics in London, the competition will get a lot more fierce. I think everyone is confident that Kobe Bryant, Lebron James, Kevin Durant, and the rest of the U.S. team will learn to gel but time is not on their side.

"LeBron is not a good defender…He can play defense for two to three minutes but not 48 minutes…LeBron can’t play (Durant) one-on-one/ They’re playing good defense like a team."

From CelticsLife.com: LeBron James’ Long Lost Solid Gold Performance
This is just too funny. King James sure can act. Even as a Celtics fan I was laughing at him.
