James Harden gave a brief synopsis of what to expect. “I’m sure he wants to win. If he’s passed up more money to obviously stay in Detroit, he wants to win and he wants to have an opportunity to play meaningful minutes, and I’m assuming that’s one of the reasons why he came,” said Harden. “Obviously, we know the athletic and high-jumping Blake. But as of these last couple of years, he’s knocking down the three-ball a little bit better, the ball-handling is a lot better. He can be a great contribution to this team.” Sean Marks, Top Rumors Top Rumors, Sean Marks, Blake Griffin, James Harden, Brooklyn Nets, Detroit Pistons shares share tweet pin sms send email

Jimmy Haslam offered up the first public comments on his impeding purchase of a significant share of the Milwaukee Bucks on Monday at the NFL owner’s meetings in Arizona. Speaking to Ohio reporters, Jimmy and Dee Haslam — owners of the Cleveland Browns — said the purchase of Marc Lasry’s 25% is still weeks away from NBA approval so they didn’t want to get into specifics, but did say Wes Edens would assume governorship of the team while the Haslam Sports Group learns the NBA business. 44 mins ago – via Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel Dee Haslam, Jimmy Haslam, Marc Lasry, Owners, Wesley Edens, Uncategorized Dee Haslam, Jimmy Haslam, Marc Lasry, Owners, Wesley Edens, Milwaukee Bucks
“It’s opportunistic,” Jimmy Haslam said of the impending purchase. “I mean listen, we never thought we’d own 10% of the Steelers. Never thought we’d own the Browns. Dee and I had never been, beside watching (daughter) Whitney play high school soccer, had never been to a soccer game. So it’s just opportunistic. It was straightened set of circumstances; we were called on this opportunity. Business, sports, you tend to be optimistic. I have no idea what will happen next. First thing’s first, let’s get this done and then let’s get the Browns winning games.” 44 mins ago – via Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel Dee Haslam, Jimmy Haslam, Marc Lasry, Owners, Wesley Edens, Uncategorized Dee Haslam, Jimmy Haslam, Marc Lasry, Owners, Wesley Edens, Milwaukee Bucks

The All Star Café opened in New York City on December 18, 1995, with much fanfare as the themed eatery set up to be for sports what the Hard Rock Cafe is for music. It opened with a flurry of paparazzi, red carpet and a slew of A list celebrities and athletes, but the final buzzer sounded on September 23, 2007 when it shuttered under the cloud of bankruptcy. That final chapter included the largest sports memorabilia heist in history cooked up by a group of knuckle-headed kitchen staffers, in what has been hailed as a Coen Brothers Fargo-esque criminal event. 44 mins ago – via Mike Fleming Jr @ Deadline Media, Uncategorized Media, Stephen Curry, Golden State Warriors
