So, which doo do you prefer, nash's new cut, or the old greasy look?  These pictures are in order: Nash's new doo(from the arizona republic website), doo when he first entered the league (nba.com), and his greasy doo(steve-nash.net).  Which do you prefer?

WHICH DO YOU PREFER?

I asked Dime this question on a comment on his blog, but got no love.  So I willl kick it out there to see if anyone else can give any insight....

While I was heading to Chipolte the other night to get a fat #### burrito, I was listening to the local sports talk show.  They were discussing why Lebron was holding out on agreeing to the terms of his contract for so long.  Others like Carmelo and Wade had already in principle agreed to their contracts, so why wasn't Lebron?  Then they came out with this:

These radio guys, refered to as "the 2 live stews" were saying that while Lebron is signed with Nike for his shoe endorsement, his contract has a clause that states if he plays in LA, Chicago, or New York, he would receive a $100 million bonus.  Then they went on to discuss how the NJ Nets are going to make a jump to Brooklyn, NY here in the next few years under the guidance of Jay Z, a partial owner of the Nets.  They said that LBJ and Jay Z are close and it could be a natural fit for Lebron.  $100 Million is more than his salary,  so why wouldn't he jump to one of these cities.

Now that LeBron has signed with Cleveland for 3 years, I am wondering, since the Nets are moving to Brooklyn supposedly I believe in 2009(3 years from now), is this the reason Lebron went for the three year deal with Cleveland rather than the 5 year?  Is he going to try to win a championship in CLeveland and then leave in three years to cash in?

These radio guys made another point, if all of this is true, Stern has to be pretty pissed that an outside company can so heavily influence the placing of a player in his league.  I thought this was all interesting and I wanted to see if anyone else out there had heard these rumors and their thoughts.

I have been out of commission for a while now...something to do with starting a new business from scratch and working my #### off.  Anyway, I am getting back into the swing of things now and have decided to ring in on thsi Allen Iverson trade rumor. 

I have said in the past I am a Denver Nuggets fan...a die hard denver nuggets fan.  I remember holding season tickets during the 2003 season where the team registered an outstanding 17 wins.  I paid $375 for the entire season, it was great.  However, after beer, parking and hot dogs, I was probably out about 5 grand.  I then signed up the next season for $575 for the entire season, Carmelo's first season.  It was great, my seats were 15 rows off the baseline and then nuggets had to win their last two games of the season at home to go to the playoffs and did...everyone around me(the longtime nuggets fans) were in tears.  Ah Memories...those seats are now going for about $2500 a seat for the season.

Anyway, I digress...back to the original point.  I have read recently in the Denver Post that the Nuggets are interested in the Answer to be their answer.  THe rumored trade includes Andre Miller and either Marcus Camby, Nene, or Kenyon Martin.  Assuming the salary numbers work out, I welcome this trade.  The nuggets need a shooter, lord knows last year in the playoffs they couldn't throw it in the ocean, or hit the broad side of a barn, whatever your favorite cliche' is.  Nightmares of watching Greg Buckner toss up brick after brick from the trey line still haunt me.

Here is why I welcome the trade.

1.  Andre Miller can not shoot outside of 15 feet.  While he runs the break nicely and can score inside for a point guard, his lack of shotting ability from the outside locks up Denver's offense.  The other PG just stands at the free throw line taunting him to shoot.  and he doesn't, because he can't.  the defensive player just clogs everything up.

2.  I would prefer it not be Camby, he is a part of the heart and soul of this team.  That being said, I would trade him if it meant getting Iverson.  Camby is good for 50-60 games a year, and the Nuggets could always resign Francisco Elson to fill his spot, or Nene should he stay.  I would prefer to trade Nene out of the big men I have mentioned....I am still amazed that a player that is athletic and can only dunk the ball can get 60 million over 6 years after tearing his ACL.  Unbelieveable. 

3.  Acquiring Iverson would give them something we have not had in my lifetime.  Two 26 PPG scorers.  Anthony averaged around 26 last year and A.I was at 33PPG or so...Sounds good to me.  Throw in an athletic and recovered Kenyon Martin(mentally and physically) and we have a pretty good scoring and athletic core with Iverson, Anthony and Martin...Hell, they could go out and sign melo's good friend and Syracuse clutch preformer Gerry McNamara to distribute the ball to all of these guys...

Anyway, those are my thoughts, and if it happens, I am predicting the Nuggets will finally win a playoff series this year...PLEASE Philadelphia, make this trade a reality.

Anyone else agree?
