Ex Microsoft CEO Ballmer Buys Clippers
Reported first by the LA Times and then clarified by ESPN earlier today. Former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer won the bid for the Los Angeles Clippers ownership role. His bid was an astounding 2 billion dollars! Other offers were 1.6 billion dollars from a group led by David Geffen but the legendary Magic Johnson was part of it. Another bid was 1.2 billion led by Tony Ressler and Steve Karsh but included newly retired Grant Hill in the group.

GSW Splash Brother Steph Curry Wins Kia NBA Community Assist Award
Hey guys! Although Clippers Guard Chris Paul may have been the league's best assist man on the court, today Warriors Guard Steph Curry won the Kia Community Assist Seasonlong Award. Steph was 6th in APG (Assists Per Game) this Regular Season with 8.5 dimes a game but stepped up off the court to win an award that most people would love to have on their record. This might be great and all, but I bet there's still one more thing that he wants on his record. An NBA Championship.

Grizz Coach Joerger Signs Contract Extension + Lakers Coaching Situation
Grizzlies Head Coach Dave Joerger signed a presumed (likely) 2-year contract with the Grizz on Tuesday after being interviewed by the Timberwolves for a coaching spot. And speaking of the Grizzlies, and Head Coaches, former Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins was asked by the LA Lakers for a coaching spot. He, fellow LA Laker, and great rebounder, Kurt Rambis are among the ones who have been interviewed by LA.

Nets D-Will Needs Surgery On Both Ankles (Nets Fans Don't Read This)
Brooklyn Nets Guard Deron Williams needs surgery on both of his ankles. The operation will be performed next week. In his right ankle, he will have a bone chip removed and on his left ankle bone spurs (which is weird because he plays for the Nets, not the Spurs) removed. I have not heard of him being scratched from the opening day lineup, however it is very likely.
Sorry, Nets fans :(

Cavs Get The Number 1 (Teehee :D!) Pick In The Draft... Again!!!
The Cleveland Cavaliers received the 1st pick in the 2014 NBA Draft. The Cavs will get the 1st pick in the Draft for the 2nd straight year. Last year, they shocked everybody by drafting Canadian Anthony Bennett 1st overall, and he didn't pan out so well in his rookie season. This year, they might continue the north of the border swing by drafting Forward Andrew Wiggins from Kansas. Also, the Cavs are in need of a big man so they may go with Wiggins' former Kansas teammate C Joel Embiid. However, they may also draft another one of elite players Forward Jabari Parker from Duke. Or they might just pick someone else, and surprise us like they did last year.
WHO DO YOU THINK THEY SHOULD DRAFT???
(Tell me in the comments section below and/or on the poll that is on the side)
P. S. The Cavs only had a 1.7% chance (out of a 25.0% chance) of getting the #1 pick.

With The 2nd Round Of The Playoffs Finished, We're On To The Conference Finals
The 2014 NBA Playoffs were off to a "blazing" start (Just coincidence to the Blazers). The 1st Round was one of the best in NBA history and the 2nd wasn't as exciting but it's the NBA. You know, "Where Amazing Happens", especially in the Playoffs. It's the Conference Finals now and the teams that are still alive an fighting for an NBA Championship under their belt, are probably who you'd expect. In the East, it's #2 seed Miami Heat @ #1 seed Indiana Pacers, which by the way, is going to start like right now on ABC. In the West, it's #2 seed Oklahoma City Thunder @ #1 seed San Antonio Spurs which is tomorrow at 9 ET (eastern time) on TNT. For game-by-game info and stats go to NBA.com or the NBA.com bracket

Steve Kerr Signs A Five-Year Deal To Coach... The Golden State Warriors!
Former Bulls/Cavaliers Guard Steve Kerr signed a five-year deal (as a Head Coach) with the Golden State Warriors. If you didn't already know, Golden State fired previous Head Coach Mark Jackson. I think everyone was surprised about that, including Mark Jackson himself. Also, many were surprised that Steve Kerr did not sign with the New York Knicks after they fired previous Head Coach Mike Woodson. The Knicks showed a lot of interest in Kerr, but sadly for the Knicks, he signed with the Warriors.
Lastly, I think that the Knicks should sign former Knickerbocker himself, one of the NBA's greatest passers EVER, former Golden State Warriors Head Coach, Mark Jackson.

Shake4ndBake
Hey guys! This is about another Youtuber! If you saw my last post on my other blog, I said that I would possibly write about a Youtuber on this blog. And I am. So the Youtuber that I'm writing about is... DRUMROLL PLEASE... Shake4ndBake (AKA Shake and Bake). He's a Youtuber of not only NBA 2K but also Outlast Whistleblower, MLB The Show 14 and much more. He even made his own PC version of NBA 2K MyTeam called MyTeam 2.0! He is an awesome Youtuber and is really worth it to watch him. But before I leave, as always, I need to show you one of Shake4ndBake's traditions. He is known for his iced tea. He drinks it as a good luck charm and might even get a little to crazy with it sometimes. Here's a video (link) to show you his crazy side.
LATER!!!

Vlogging? It's A Possibility
Hey guys! I have some important news! There's a possibility that I might start "vlogging". If you don't know what vlogging is here's a quick review:
My Audience
Hey guys! This post is about my audience. I have a whopping 2,603 pageviews and I have a saddening 405 pageviews (and counting) on my secondary blog. I have many more pageviews this blog because I have many more posts and I started this one before. I will try to write more on my secondary blog ASAP. I have pageviews from the UK and Russia and Malaysia, just to name a few. This blog has been advertised but not my other one (because I started much later). My blog has been tweeted and shown on the MSG (Madison Square Garden) screen thanks to my brother. I will try to write a LOT more on my secondary blog so the pageviews can go up. Later guys!

Probably The Best Playoff Round Ever Finally Comes To An End
Hey guys! The first round of the 2014 NBA Playoffs have ended, and not so much on a good note. My favorite team is the Chicago Bulls, and sadly they lost to the Washington Wizards in 5 games. The rest of the NBA Playoffs have included 5 Game 7's a game-winner by the young Superstar in Portland, South Beach domination (as usual) and a sad series (and year) for Chicago fans. I wasn't very descriptive in the end, but I'll but a link to the NBA Playoffs Bracket via NBA.com.
