Thanks to Yardbarker for the Photo! LeBron James had New York and New Jersey discuss playing in the Mecca, he had the Clippers offer him Los Angeles, The Bulls offered him the biggest legacy to fill and Cleveland offered him his home but in the end, LeBron James decided to take him game down to South Beach. Last night, LeBron agreed to become the newest member of the Miami Heat with Chris Bosh and Dwayne Wade. With these 3 players, The Miami Heat has jumped from a average playoff team to a Championship favorite team. Dwayne Wade, Chris Bosh and [...]

Since I was writing in the past, I realized people love podcasts. Well, the Sir Charles in Charge website has a podcast now! Sort of. Due to some issues, the Podcast name is not “The Sir Charles In Charge Podcast”. Sorry fans. The name of the podcast is the NBA Upside podcast. It consists of 3 fans who believe we actually know something about Basketball. The podcast is going through a transition but will be going on in a regular basis soon ( Future Posts Will Show).  We will be discussing the NBA and NCAA seasons. Wondering why Kevin Durant [...]

Players like James Harden, Eric Maynor, Jrue Holiday, Gordon Hayward, Terrance Williams [...]

The NBA fans have seen Drew Gooden, Darko Milicic, Hakim Warrick and Channing Frye get deals. A few hours ago, Steve Blake and the Los Angeles Lakers have agreed to a 4 year, 16 million dollar deal. The belief now is former Laker Jordan Farmar is now on the open market but hasn’t received too many calls. This is a 24 year old, 2 time champion. I think teams like Detroit, New York, Indiana, Charlotte and even Miami should be calling for Farmar’s services. He’s not a great fit in the triangle offense. I think a fast paced team like [...]

Alot has happen since the clock struck midnight. We have a couple signings and a couple rumors Signings For one, Drew Gooden has already stole another contract! Gooden signed a 5 year, 32 million dollar contract with the Milwaukee Bucks. This moves gives the Bucks another low post presence at the power forward position with draft picks Tiny Gallon and Larry Sanders. Darko Milicic has returned back to Minnesota. For 4 years and 20 million, The Timberwolves keep the 7 year vet. That, along with the 3 year, 13 million dollar deal signed by Center Nikola Pekovic means Minnesota will [...]
