Lebron is getting....... BETTER!!!

Lebron James has finally evolved into a clutch player. I feel that this was the only area that he had a lot of room to improve on, and a very important one. The Heat vs. Bulls series has made me a believer. In game 2 and today's game 4 he was the epitome of clutch, scoring huge baskets down the stretch in the fourth quarter. I mean, of course Lebron has had clutch performances in the past. But it just didn't seem like he could bring it consistently. I somehow get the feeling that he has finally turned the corner and now will be a consistent clutch performer. Lebron is also now capable of playing defensive player of the year type d. If u saw today's game, u saw him locking up MVP DRose in the fourth quarter. Man, it's unreal when u think about it. This guy had the most hype EVER coming out of high school, and he's actually surpassing the hype! Go Heat!

Dunk of KD's career so far! Loving this year's playoffs!



So who are you rooting for in the NBA final four? I personally am rooting for the Miami Heat. But you know, I'd be happy for any of these four teams that are battling it out. If the Mavs win, I'd be happy for Jason Kidd and Dirk Nowitzki, two very deserving Hall of Famers. If the Thunder win, I'd be happy for KD and company for winning it all at so young an age. Lebron James, Dwayne Wade, and Derrick Rose are my favorite players in the league, so obviously I'd be happy if either the Heat or Bulls take the trophy.

Flakiness is sooooo annoying!

It's such a simple situation, if you say you're going to do something, then do it! If not, then don't say you will in the first place. Especially if you don't even have the courtesy to let the other person know that you've changed your mind for whatever reason. If you do have a good reason, then obviously it can be forgiven. But even if you don't have a good reason, it's always best to let the other person know what's going on. Instead of leaving the person hanging, wondering what's happening. Golden rule people, treat others how you want to be treated.

Kentucky's gonna be stacked once again next year.

I've been watching a lot of the high school all star basketball games and the player that has impressed me the most is Mike Gilchrist. He already is an extremely complete basketball player, very talented on both ends of the floor. I think most people rate Austin Rivers as the best in the class of 2011, but I disagree. Yes, Rivers is an immensely gifted offensive player, but I've noticed that he is a bit of a ballhog and he hasn't impressed me on the defensive side of the ball. I would easily recruit Gilchrist over Rivers.

Food Pics


This is the "brownie sundae cheesecake" from The Cheesecake Factory. I give it 3.5 out of 5 stars. It's a little too sweet and rich for my taste. The brownie portion is very dense, I would prefer it to be lighter and more airy.


This is the "boneless kalbi" from Koreamoku BBQ. Unfortunately this is the first thing I tried from there that I didn't like. It's just my luck that I chose to take a pic of this instead of the other plates I enjoyed from there. It tasted like a simple teriyaki hamburger steak that was thin yet still a little tough. 2.5 out of 5 stars.

Ncaa BBall Tournament Action

The tournament has been awesome this year. So many exciting, well-played games. I'm not the biggest college basketball fan, but I'm glad I've been able to catch a couple games in the elite-eight that have been fantastic. I caught yesterday's Arizona-UConn and today's Kentucky-UNC game. Both were immensely fun to watch. Both also had exciting future NBA players. Derrick Williams from Arizona, Kemba Walker from UConn, Harrison Barnes from UNC, and Brandon Knight for Kentucky will all be lottery picks. They all put on a great show in these games.
Brandon Knight

Lil Wayne

Rodney Stuckey

Japan earthquake disaster: Warning sign?

I'm not usually a pessimist, but this disaster in Japan has definitely got me worried. What gets me is that Japan has the only tsunami early-warning system in the world. So in that sense, the earthquake happened in the perfect spot. Because obviously the warning can't be early enough when it happens right there. I mean, I'm like everyone else, I hope that the 2012 predictions don't come true. And we should always live life to the fullest... but maybe especially this year.
