Michael Jordan Tribute Video

Here’s a great Michael Jordan Tribute video.  Michael Jordan is now a NBA executive and minority owner of the Charlotte Bobcats.  He will soon become the first basketball player to own a NBA team.  Will he succeed?  I hope so.  Do you think he takes the job as serious as a NBA Playoff game?  I just can’t help but question his work ethic as an executive and owner.  The game is about to begin.

Tracy McGrady Traded to Knicks

The highest paid player in the NBA, Tracy McGrady, is headed to the New York Knicks.  The Houston Rockets will get guard Kevin Martin from the Sacramento Kings and forwards Jordan Hill and Jared Jeffries from the New York Knicks.  The Rockets will also have the right to swap first- round picks in 2011 with the Knicks in addition to a take on New York’s 2012 first-round pick.

The Sacramento Kings acquire forwards Carl Landry and Joey Dorsey from Houston along with guard Larry Hughes from New York.  Carl Landry will be the 6th Man of the Year in the NBA.

McGrady is coveted for his enormous expiring deal, which could help a club knock significant dollars off the payroll at the end of the season. With several major free agents like Lebron James and Dwyane Wade in the summer of 2010, teams like the Knicks are looking to shed as much salary as possible.

In his sixth season with Houston, McGrady has appeared in just six games in 2009-10 after undergoing microfracture surgery last year on his knee and has scored 19 points.

Antawn Jamison Traded to Cavaliers

The Cleveland Cavaliers are trading for a title. Antawn Jamison and Sebastian Telfair are headed to the Cleveland Cavaliers for Zydrunas Ilgauskas. Jamison would provide the Cleveland Cavaliers with another scoring threat to complement LeBron James.

In 41 games this season, the 6-foot-9 Jamison is averaging 20.5 points, 8.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists. He has posted 278 career double-doubles. Jamison has two years and more than $28 million left on his contract.
