Unexpected changes to my day job, moving house and basically living in fast forward since early June have slowed the 2SOTH express. The posts have been non-existent but I’m happy to report that I’m back.
What a time to go missing you might say? …
LeBron James is fast becoming the smartest, most dangerous and perhaps greatest man in basketball.
When you look back over some of his actions and reactions over the course of his career, you could see a child in a man’s body… well, quite literally. The “global icon” comments, the low percentage …
Ok, so I’m still shocked as well. LeBron James dropped a bomb yesterday when he declared to everyone that he is leading the petition for all players and teams to retire Michael Jordan’s famous number 23.

I read an article today on ESPN.com and was astounded by what Pau Gasol has achieved in Basketball to date.
