When you think of Dennis Rodman you probably picture the tattooed rebounding machine that loved to party and self promote. He’s still pretty much the same. I don’t know how many boards he could grab at 48 but Dennis is still partying like he’s 28. You know he’s serious because he hooked up with A List Entertainment to video his hipness.

Referee Kenny Bayless mercifully stopped the fight in the 12th round to prevent further damage to Cotto’s face. Read the full story

Los Angeles Lakers guard Shannon Brown was acquired by the team as a throw in when LA sent Vladimir Radmonivich to Charlotte for Adam Morrison in February. So far he’s been the best player in the deal.
Brown gives the Lakers athleticism and toughness off the bench and he’s been one of the few bright spots for the LA backups this season. His play has been solid but his highlight dunks like this put back jam are becoming his calling card. Read the full story
