By Carlton Jordan | June 21, 2011 | Sports, TV | No comments

Hello readers! (side note: I gotta think of a name for my faithful followers! Any suggestions??)

I recently sat down with former NBA star Doug Christie and and his ‘ride-or-die chick’ Jackie Christie this past week. The couple discussed everything from their yearly remarriage, basketball wives, and gay slurs!

On getting remarried every year: ”Everybody do your marriage the way you do it..do you cause we gonna do us!” – Jackie Christie

Check out Jackie’s feelings on being a basketball wife below….

Lamar got a new $400K ride…Khloe gets to ‘ride’ Lamar!!

Membership into the Kardashians certainly has its perks! Khloe Kardashian rewarded hubby Lamar Odom with a $400,000 Rolls-Royce convertible for the Laker star’s championship win.

Khloe’s mom, Kris Jenner, tells E! Online, “It’s a brand new 2010 Rolls-Royce…drop top coupe, white on white. It was a Lakers championship present. Fabulous!”

Obviously life for Lamar is good right now. Rest assured, Khloe’s return present from Lamar will be even more valuable than the car…it will be of the diapers and milk bottle variety!

KOBE TO SHAQ: “I GOT ONE MORE THAN YOU…TAKE THAT TO THE BANK!!”

By Carlton Jordan | June 18, 2010 | Sports, Video | 87 Comments

Kobe Bryant forgets NADA! After winning his 5th NBA championship and second straight MVP award, the Black Mamba spewed a little payback venom at Shaquille O’Neal last night at Staples by letting it be known that he has one more championship than the Diesel! See video…

In the longstanding “feud-rivalry” between Kobe & Shaq, it was “believed” just a few years ago that Kobe couldn’t win a championship without the Big Fella. Shaq even took to rapping to Kobe about how his “ass tastes” when Shaq won his 4th title with the Miami Heat.

Kobe has since won two straight titles to surpass O’Neal…and more importantly proved to all the world that he doesn’t need Shaq to win it all.

Looks like Shaq is eating ass crow now! Congrats, Black Mamba!!!

Ron Ron is precious! The Los Angeles Lakers’ forward celebrated the Lakers’ title repeat performance last night by thanking his psychiatrist! See video…

Ron Ron, who said at the beginning of the season that if the Lakers don’t win the championship you can blame him, delivered big time last night with knock-out defense on the Celtics’ Paul Pierce, timely rebounding and a critical three pointer down the stretch that helped seal L.A.’s victory.

“First off, I wanna thank everybody in my hood…(unclear)…my wife, my kids, my family, everything…definately wanna thank my doctor, my psychiatrist, she really helped me relax alot…I knocked down that three just like you told me…and my single coming out, I got a single called Champion, I did a song called Champion last June! and the single is coming out!”

Ron Ron is a piece of work and may appear a little off his rocker at times, but he certainly rocked it last night for the World Champion Lakers! Queensbridge represent!!! Now go hit the club and have a drink Ron Ron. You earned it! LOL

Shannon is literally flying over the Celtics…even Jonah Hex is amazed!!

Los Angeles Lakers guard Chris Shannon Brown electrified the Staples Center crowd last night with two power dunks that helped propel the hometown Lakers to a victory over the Celtics in Game 6 of the NBA Finals. Check ‘em out…

Actually, L.A. crushed Boston, 89-67 to force a seventh and deciding game on Thursday. The winner wins the NBA championship.

Shannon, people say, looks a lot like entertainer Chris Brown. Difference is, Shannon abuses baskets not women!

DEREK FISHER GETS EMOTIONAL AFTER GRITTY LAKER WIN!!

By Carlton Jordan | June 9, 2010 | Sports, Video | 294 Comments

Derek Fisher’s emotions damn near got the best of him last night after a tough win at Boston in Game 3 of the NBA Finals. Check video…

D-Fish, who is also leader of the NBA Players Association, has experienced a lot in his 14-year NBA career. Being called too old for the game, labeled the weak link in an otherwise dominant Laker starting corps and personally having to deal with his daughter’s battle with cancer of the retina (she is doing fine now), the wily veteran continues to perservere…being his typical clutch self for the Lakers in the playoffs.

The Lakers are halfway to a repeat championship and they have D-Fish to thank for it. Regardless of the Finals outcome, this guy is truly a class act, a great leader and a proud champion.

SNOOP DOGG LAYS DOWN $20K ON THE LAKERS TO WIN THE NBA FINALS!!!

By Carlton Jordan | June 8, 2010 | Sports, Video | 18 Comments

When it comes to the Lakers, Snoop puts his money where his mouth is!!

Snoop Dogg loves his L.A. Lakers and he’s proving it! The rapper from the LBC is challenging Boston Celtic fans Donnie Wahlberg (former New Kids On The Block member) and UFC president Dana Whyte to a friendly wager—$20,000 to be exact—that Kobe & Co. will take this year’s NBA Finals. All proceeds would go to the winner’s charity of choice.

Snoop and comedian Mike Epps issued the challenge via Twitter and YouTube (see below). Snoop sums up his Laker loyalty this way: “I was born and raised off of that Laker music played by Magic Johnson and Kareem. I’m a die hard Laker.”

Word has it that Donnie’s brother Mark Walhberg has accepted Snoop’s offer. Apparently, Mike Epps wants in on the friendly wager as well. It’s unclear whether Whyte is in on the betting.

LOL @ Mike Epps!! That ‘Banana Yellow’ had better play big against that ‘Cabbage Green’ in Boston!!

My ears did not deceive me! Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo heads to the bench during a late timeout just after giving the Celtics control of Game 2 of the NBA Finals vs. the Lakers and is greeted as “my nigga” by one of his teammates!!

Check video…

The Celtics defeated the Lakers at Staples, 103-94 to even the Finals at one game a piece. Can’t tell who gave the “compliment” but Nate Robinson most definitely is a prime suspect!! LOL!
