(Opinion) Lakers/New Orleans/Chris Paul situation black eye for the NBA

At a time when anticipation and excitement should be about the return of the NBA season & training camps opening today, the focus is instead on the NBA putting a stop to the Lakers/Chris Paul deal. If this deal doesn't go through, there will be a big black cloud (of conspiracy) hanging over the NBA for the rest of the season. Why David Stern would put himself & the league in this situation because of pressure from rival team owners, boggles the mind.

This is a case of big market/small market paranoia gone wrong & an example of why there should never be a league owned team. This was actually a pretty good deal for the Hornets & they would be hard pressed to find a better one. "The proposed trade would have sent Paul to the Lakers, Pau Gasol to the Rockets and furnished New Orleans with three top-flight NBA players in Kevin Martin, Luis Scola and Lamar Odom as well as playoff-tested guard Goran Dragic and a 2012 first-round pick that Houston had acquired from the Knicks." via espn.com. I'm hoping everybody involved comes to their senses & they resolve this debacle asap.

(News) @DwightHoward to ask Orlando Magic for trade to New Jersey Nets

Of all the deals that have been rumored involving Dwight Howard & the Orlando Magic, I thought the New Jersey Nets offer of Brook Lopez and two first-round draft picks was the best one on the table. To go along with that, the Nets are willing to take on Turkoglu's remaining three year, $34 million contract. Today espn.com is reporting "Dwight Howard will ask the Orlando Magic to trade him to the New Jersey Nets, and a deal could go down as soon as Friday, sources close to the situation said.".

October 01, 2011: MediaTakeOut.com just learned of a STUNNING revelation in the NBA contract discussions. According to a person who was IN THE ROOM, the NBA Commissioner PUT HANDS On NBA star Dwyane Wade.

The insider told his girlfriend, "[David Stern] was pointing a [Dwyane] Wade and stuck his finger in his chest. He was saying that the owners [have to have a hard salary cap] because of the team Dwyane put together in Miami."

And it wasn't a playful jab either. The insider told MediaTakeOut.com "Commissioner [Stern] was upset."

But Dwyane didn't just sit there and take it.

(Video) First Look at Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 - Multiplayer Gameplay

I've been a little skeptical about MW3 ever since most of the original team that created the series left to start a new company. So far MW3 looks very similar to MW2 so it's possible that the loss of staff has lead to a lack of new ideas, but some would say if it ain't broke don't fix it. Regardless of the fact I will still most likely purchase it because when it comes to shooters nothing is like COD. Below is a first look at some of the multiplayer action.

(Video) New Max B Interview: Says He Might Be Out Of Jail By Summer. (Via @MTMovieStar )

Via ThisIs50.com. With the release of his brand new album 'Vigilante Season', and his appeals process moving along nicely, Max B has reason to see a possible bright future despite his present surroundings.

Max is currently serving a 75 year sentence for manslaughter, aggravated assault, robbery, kidnapping, possession of a weapon and conspiracy. The September 2009 sentencing temporarily stopped the big wave Max was riding, but we could see him back up on his surfboard as soon as this summer.

"The appeal process is done finally, been done for about a month now," Max told Mikey T The Movie Star in a brand new interview. "What they do is the prosecutor responds back and you get a letter, they tell you, you gotta wait 8-10 months for a response from the appellate court to get a decision, but they come back way before that," Max explained. "So you might see me [out by] summer [or] by the end of the year."

That would be a great look for Max, if he's out by the end of the year.

(Interview) Prodigy Talks Reconciling With Nas, Capone Snitching, & Why He Thought Biggie Was Corny, Via: @ToshitakaKondo

THE ELSWORTH BUMPY JOHNSON EP available tomorrow via Complex.com.

If Prodigy ends up being another rapper who fell off after doing a bid in jail, it won’t be because he was lazy or lacked motivation. Since being released on March 7, after serving three years for a gun possession charge, P has already locked in features on the upcoming Curren$y and Alchemist EP, Convert Coup, and Jim Jones’ new album, Capo. He’ll also be releasing an exclusive Complex-sponsored mixtape, The Ellsworth Bumpy Johnson EP, tomorrow. If the recently leaked Mobb Deep-Nas collaboration, ”Dog Shit,” is any indication of where P’s at creatively, then fans should expect a healthy dose of murda muzik.

Interestingly enough, even with all these new songs on the horizon, the thing that seems to have people the most excited is Prodigy’s revealing autobiography, My Infamous Life, which drops tomorrow as well. It is chock full of classic stories involving Nas, Jay-Z, The Notorious B.I.G., Big Pun, Mary J. Blige, and even Lindsey Lohan. With everything going on, when Prodigy stopped by the offices last week, we took the opportunity to speak with him about his current status in regards to G-Unit, and ask about some of the wild stories from his book.
