LeBron James Back, Cavaliers Roll Posted: 12 Mar 2010 08:56 PM PST LeBron James missed the last two games for the Cleveland Cavaliers due to wanting to rest some nagging injuries. Against the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday night, LeBron was back and didn’t waste any time dominating the action. In 42 minutes, LeBron had 23 points, ten assists, six rebounds and three blocks. Mo Williams chipped in 21 points for the Cavs, while Delonte West had 17 points off the bench. The Sixers, who were playing at home, were actually leading the game after three quarters. But a poor fourth quarter doomed the squad. Andre Iguodala had 30 points, seven rebounds and five assists, while Elton Brand had 24 points and nine rebounds. At 51-15, Cleveland has the best record in basketball. The 23-42 Sixers need a miracle to make the playoffs. As for LeBron, he may get more rest if the Cavs keep winning. As soon as they wrap up the number one seed, Cleveland will shift their aim to being healthy and rested for the playoffs. Post from: EveryJoe LeBron James Back, Cavaliers Roll |
Lance Berkman Injury Update – Left Knee Posted: 12 Mar 2010 08:55 PM PST Last season, injuries kept Lance Berkman from living up to his potential. The bad news for the Houston Astros is that the injury bug has struck again: Berkman needs knee surgery that very well could force him to miss the beginning of the 2010 baseball season. The good news is that the knee injury is considered minor. At most, Berkman will miss a month of action. When he returns, doctors expect him to be near 100%. The surgery is needed due to a knee bruise. The 34-year-old first baseman hit .274 with 25 homers and 80 RBIs last season. Considering that he had .312 with 29 homers and 106 RBIs in 2008, last year was a disappointment. For the Astros to be a contender this year, they’ll need Berkman to have an MVP-caliber campaign. Personally, Berkman has a lot riding on this season. It’s the last year of his deal and a big season could lead to millions on the open market next winter.

Larry Johnson Signs with the Redskins Posted: 12 Mar 2010 08:55 PM PST Not long ago, Larry Johnson was one of the most dominant running backs in the NFL. However, he has struggled in recent years. The Washington Redskins now hope that Johnson can regain some of that magic. In Washington, Johnson will join forces with Clinton Portis at running back. Portis is coming off of an injury plagued season and there’s no guarantee he’ll be 100% by next season. With that in mind, Johnson is good insurance. Last year, Johnson had 581 yards in seven games with the Kansas City Chiefs and the Cincinnati Bengals. The best season of his career came in 2005 when he had 1,750 rushing yards and 20 rushing touchdowns. Johnson’s contract is for three years and will be worth between $3.5 million and $12 million. Right now, it appears as if he’ll be the backup RB in Washington — though that can quickly change depending on Portis’ status. Post from: EveryJoe Larry Johnson Signs with the Redskins |
