About this ebook

Yao Ming is a force on the basketball court. The center, born in Shanghai, China, towers over opponents at 7-foot-6. His strength, agility, and hard work have made him one of the most dominant big men in the NBA today. After leading his Chinese team to a championship in 2002, Yao was the top pick of the NBA draft by the Houston Rockets. His arrival in the United States has helped to break down cultural barriers and has made Yao one of the most recognized athletes in the world.

LeBron Says He Wants to Retire (many years from now) as a Laker! Plus, the Lakers' Draft Needs.: As part of his Space Jam promotional tour, LeBron James appeared on the "Smartless" podcast with Will Arnett, Jason Bateman and Sean Hayes, and among many subjects, touched on his basketball future. In a nutshell, he wants to play another several years, and all of them in a Laker uniform. What's crazy is how absolutely sane the notion of him playing well into his forties feels. LeBron also talked about his future in Hollywood, and what he could have in common with Denzel Washington, Liam Neeson and The Rock. From there, the Kamenetzkys break down what type of player the Lakers should target with the 22nd pick, assuming they keep it. Should they target a high ceiling, or a high floor? What skills should they covet? Is it even possible to find a multifaceted player late in the first round? Finally, Team USA lost what is ultimately an insignificant game against Nigeria, but basketball fans are

Is Rob Pelinka a Good General Manager?

Which gives everyone a chance to look ahead (by looking backwards just a little). There are a few bits of unfinished Trade Deadline Week business that the show couldn't get to, starting with reports stating that Lakers GM Rob Pelinka and stars Anthony Davis and LeBron James may not have been fully aligned on strategy. Were the stars ok with standing pat, at least in the way Pelinka suggested? Were they really consulted, as he stated? There is plenty of wiggle room to interpret events, but it seems like all the parties involved are, at the least, in CYA mode.

LeBron Leads Early All-Star Voting, Talks About Media Accountability: The first release of All-Star voting is always a fun day in the NBA, especially for two guys who are not at all precious about who gets in or who might not (like say the hosts of this show). So seeing Carmelo Anthony cracking the top 10 among Western Conference forwards despite not playing at an All Star level? Whatever! If that's what the fans want, all good. Frankly, it's disappointing to see that Lakers fans couldn't give Austin Reaves the Alex Caruso treatment, and push him into the Top 10 among W.C. guards. Bigger Issue: Russell Westbrook (due to play) and Anthony Davis (due to availability) may not be on the team. And for a squad built around All Stars, that helps explain why the Lakers have been mired around .500 all year. From there, Frank Vogel and Dwight Howard talked about sacrifice as more guys come back to the roster. There will be guys currently playing significant roles who will have to sit as Kendrick

The NBA Will Retire Bill Russell's #6. Should LeBron James Change His Number? Plus, Kyrie Tweets!: The NBA announced Thursday that Bill Russell, the larger-than-life icon who died last month at the age of 88, will be honored in a series of ways this season. First, his #6 will be retired leaguewide, though players (like LeBron James) who currently wear the number can keep it if they choose. Second, there will be jersey patches worn across the NBA, and every stadium will have a shamrock with a #6 inside, displayed next to the scorer's table. It's that last part that has at least some Lakers fans cringing a little, even if they know it's the right thing to do. Is it ok to lean into the pettiness of the Lakers/Celtics rivalry here, and balk at the shamrock on a Lakers home floor? Might Russell himself understand where Lakers fans are coming from? The bigger question: What does LeBron do? There is obviously an argument to be made that James should immediately give up his #6. Especially sinc
