  George Stilts played on an exhibition basketball team called The Mighty Air Gliders. He had been watching Resurren play ball on the playground from a distance. George didn’t want her to know that he was watching. One cool dark night Resurren was shooting hoops alone.

Phil Jackson & Michael Jordan

Image
  To be honest, I hardly knew Phil Jackson. It was always Michael Jordan - Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan first joined the Bulls in 1984. He was the NBA Rookie of the year in 1985.  In 1987, Jackson was hired as an assistant coach by the Chicago Bulls under Doug Collins. He promoted to head coach in 1989. Jackson and the Bulls made the playoffs every year, and failed to win the title only three times.   Before Phil Jackson became coach, people were already talking about Michael Jordan. I wasn’t a Chicago Bulls fan & as far back as I can remember, every time I turned around, Jordan was making shots, slam dunking, and winning. He jumped high up in the air. When I think of air Jordan, I think of him & not the basketball shoes. Michael Jordan - Michael Jordan! I said, “This man doesn’t ever loose.”   I don’t remember seeing Phil Jackson that much. Scottie Pippen along with Michael Jordan played an important role in transforming the Bulls into a champion...

Sports News Flash - LeBron James

Image
  It is said that LeBron James wants to buy an NBA team in Las Vegas after he retires. Is owning an NBA team profitable? If yes, I think LeBron James should go for it. Is an NBA team a good investment? If yes, I think LeBron James should go for it. I hear quite a bit about people owning ball teams. Do you ever wonder just what does NBA team owners do? It is probably their job to hire new head coaches and sometimes players, and maybe more. I suppose they are the ones to make decisions for the team. LeBron seems to have some experience. LeBron James is rich enough to buy an NBA team, and he’s got nothing to lose if an NBA team can be very profitable.

He had fancy ball handling. ....
