The MJ/Magic/LeBron controversy
Ok, I was not going to chime in on this simply because its getting on my nerves. Micheal Jordan and Magic Johnson were asked their opinions of the so-called "super-friends" down in Miami. Now full disclosure I am a huge Lakers fan and Magic Johnson is my favorite player ever. In fact he's the primary reason I started watching basketball. I really couldn't stand Jordan simply because everyone else was so enamored with him. Doesn't mean I didn't follow and love the Cavs, I am just a bigger Laker fan. The Cavs pushed me away when they traded Ron Harper back in the day.
Anyway - Jordan and Magic were asked their OPINION, which they have earned the right to talk about because they have a combined 11 rings. So they can say whatever they like!! They have done more for basketball and for LeBron ( ya think LBJ would have all those marketing opportunities if it wasn't for Jordan? ummm nope) Yes they had great teams, but also they made their teams great. Yes Magic had Kareem but he was almost 40 years old, and do you think Worthy would have been a Top 50 player without him? umm no. And don't even get me started on Pippen - who was an excellent player but was made better by MJ's presence.
Look LeBron has every right to change teams, that's what free agency is about, but they way he did it was the problem. And I'm tired of people saying that he didn't have help - yes he is a great player but they didn't win 61 and 66 games the past two years solely because of him. But he's from here - and he knows the city, for someone who seems so media savvy that was one of the worst moves I have ever seen.

The Roots - How I Got Over
It's a well known fact I am a Roots Stan - I don't think I've missed a show they have done in Cleveland for the past 5 or 6 years (on a side note if ?uestlove is ever Djing in your make sure to check him out), but that aside - this is the best Roots album I have heard in awhile. Why? There are no tracks to skip over - just an excellent flow of music from one track to the next. This and Revolutions Per Minute (Talib and Hi-Tek) are easily my favorite albums of the year so far. I could name a couple of tracks to pay attention to but I think this is a work better taken in its entirety.
