Celtics Nab Music Star

Yesterday, I wrote a post about how I was confused by the decision the Celtics made to sign Carlos Arroyo. Upon reading this, Andrew pointed me in the direction of Arroyo's other career. And as such, I am no longer perplexed, but instead, elated.

In case you missed it, check this out.



As Abides aptly stated to me last night, "There's nothing you love more than NBA players making music videos." And he's dead on. Arroyo is killin' it. Plus, it's in Spanish, which elevates the genius behind this video to another level.

Amazing move, Danny Ainge. Really just inspired general managing. Welcome to Boston, pop star Carlos Arroyo. You'll always have a place in my heart.

Udonis Arrest: Heated Reactions

Haslem was arrested Sunday
for Marijuana possession.

Udonis Haslem was pulled over for speeding on Sunday afternoon and was later arrested for possession of marijuana. A search of his car yielded less than 20 grams. We can only speculate as to why the Miami Heat Forward would feel the need to drive under the influence. Perhaps he saw what Russell Westbrook was up to this weekend and decided he too had a serious snack attack. Haslem will be drug-tested and faces a maximum 5 year prison sentence.  


The Heat made quite a fuss about re-signing Haslem this summer to play alongside their newly minted triumvirate of LeBron, Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade. Time will tell how this may or may not affect the Slumber Party Boys, but with not even a day gone by, everyone affiliated with the Miami Heat organization is speaking out on the issue. We've sorted through the numerous press conferences to bring you some of the thoughts of Udonis's colleagues and coworkers.

Erik Spoelstra
Head Coach

"I've never tried pot before. We watched a video on it in health class that said if we smoke dope we'll be homeless."

Pat Riley

Team President

"I knew I should never have hired my neighbor's kid to coach this team. This was totally his fault. I'm getting thirsty."
