Kanye West takes a break from belittling teenage girls to preview the upcoming NBA season. Bonus: For your VMA consideration, "Flow On" by Cedric Ceballos. Now just try to get it out of your head.

Hot Chicks with Douchebags: The NBA Edition.

The majority owner of the NJ Nets is now Russian billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov. Prokhorov is probably best known for allegedly using prostitutes to entertain clients while head of Norilsk Nickel. Nets season ticket holders need to make note of that.

Proof that the WNBA is the Rodney Dangerfield of professional sports, Case #30726: The LA Sparks playoff games are bumped from their arena in favor of Britney Spears. Case #30726B: The Atlanta Dream are bumped in favor of Sesame Street Live.

Lamar Odom and Khloe Kardashian are getting married. And this is news because, um..Khloe's sister Kim has a big butt and a sex tape? Just kidding! But seriously, Khloe is also famous because, um...

Something to tide you over until Sheed on opening night: The top 10 meltdowns of the last decade. Surprisingly not making the list: Starbury's Justin.tv account.

Starbury finally got around to listening to the Bad Boys 2 Soundtrack. He was not pleased.

Not a lot of comment action on this post. The people of the internet have spoken.....Statbuster < McHale

No offense, SB, but I needed to say it. For myself. Don't ask why. It just had to be said.

Dude I was on a flight with Lamar Odom last Thursday from JFK to LA and he was with a girl with three LV bags and I thought that was his new 'chick' well little did I know that she was a kardahoweveryouspellit and that she was his fiance. They sat a row behind me on the plane and she was annoying. He gave me the 'every black guy knows whats this' head nod and I nodded back. She was cute for shit. She looks like a Taco Bell employee in Atlantic City

I think everyone's holding their breath that Matt doesn't keel over during eye surgery taking the Living Large Epilogue with him to his grave.

Dammit Trev. Stop bringing that up. Are you trying to bring a curse upon this blog? It could be some kind of omen.

Don't worry, Buck. I made it through the surgery a-okay. My eyesight is still f'ed up for the mo', but I'm able to kinda read and do a little typing. Hopefully I'll be even better in a couple days.

CassavaLeaf -- Holy crap, that's awesome. And they sat behind you? You must be a high roller.

Wahey, you made it through your op OK! Basketbawesome! :-)

Are you going to throw a Windows 7 party in honour of your recovery? They might have HostNotes for that on their site....

Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

BadDave: Ta for doing your section for the epilogue. Looking forward to reading it as always.

Meant: she wasN'T cute

not taco bell employee from Mat's story but an Atlantic City Taco Bell employee... it's a horrible sight

@ Kazam92.. you'd be surprised how many athletes travel commercial. I've ran into kimbo slice and the coach of the Patriots in the past couple months.

[I travel a lot for work]

back on subject.... the kardashian is NOT want you expect an athlete's wife to look like, especially one that's been in the league for 10+ years and lives in L.A.

Ah, tis truly the off-season when this guy is the most talked about current event.

Don't laugh though. For those of you unfamiliar with Basketbawful, you should know that the man has an award named after him. That puts him up there with figures like Larry O'Brien and Vince Lombardi.

WV: Ankfl: Ankle Failure. Fans of Ginobili and the Spurs are very familiar with this.
