Doc Rivers' son blows by John Wall

Top high school prospect crosses up John Wall

By Jeff Eisenberg

In addition to being the new No. 1 prospect in Rivals.com's Class of 2011 rankings, Austin Rivers has bragging rights over his peers in at least one other respect.

How many other high school kids can say they blew by the No. 1 pick in the NBA draft as if his hightops were stuck in wet cement?


Check out the above video of Rivers crossing up Washington Wizards No. 1 pick John Wall off the dribble on Wednesday in the opening day of Boost Mobile Elite 24 camp in Hawthorne, Calif. Then Rivers picks Wall clean at the other end of the court when the ex-Kentucky star attempts to return the favor with a crossover dribble of his own.


Granted Wall is only two years removed from the start of his senior year of high school, but it was still an impressive sequence from Rivers, the son of Boston Celtics coach Doc Rivers and the consensus top shooting guard in the Class of 2011. Many believe Rivers is likely to be Duke-bound, but he says he's also still considering Florida, North Carolina and Kansas.

As for Wall, he managed to show up the high school kids a few times as well.

In one pick-up game, Bucks guard Brandon Jennings spins the ball around his waist in transition, then flings it over his head to a speeding Wall, who flushed home a one-handed alley-oop slam. Wall also got some payback against Rivers with a nice head fake and driving floater of his own.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

Tiger better get back on 'roids

If that "roids doctor he was hanging with ain't in jail, dude better re-up!

Just like the mlb guys who went from 10 to 40 homers and then back to 10, this is pretty obvious.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

The brand new iTit phone from Apple

Apple announced today that it has developed a breast implant that can store and play music. The iTit will cost from $499 to $699, depending on cup and speaker size. This is considered a major social breakthrough, because women are always complaining about men staring at their breasts and not listening to them."
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              

Pete Carroll-Captain of Titanic but he jumped ship

Got in a lifeboat called the Seahawks. The USC players have been told by NCAA they are free to transfer without having to sit out. Lane Kiffin sure as hell got his for leaving Tennessee. USC would do well, like SMU did, to just retire the football program for the duration of the penalty. They are going to be horrible for at least five years.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

Hey Monk

Interesting game for Nate Robinson. He had a "Knick" moment out there and you could see Ray Allen reading him the riot act while commentators described Doc Rivers yelling "poise." Robinson had a really good, really exciting game. He might have gotten away with the tantrum that got him a technical on the Knicks cause who could say shit to him there everyone knowing it didn't matter cause the team was going nowhere. Here he got the message that the game was too important for going off. He got told to "Get a grip."
