[video] Lebron James’ High School Teammate says “2 Pac is the Single Most Overrated Rapper of All Time”

Posted on by

After a decade and half of adoration for 2 Pac since his death, I have recently heard some compelling arguments against the true legacy of Tupac Shakur.

Being childhood friends/former teammates with the best basketball player in the world has it perks, but it won’t guarantee you a spot on an NBA roster. So what do you do to put food on the table for your family? Romeo Travis has spent the last 8 seasons playing professional basketball overseas. No matter where in the world basketball takes him, the city of Akron (OH) will always be his home.

“SHOOTIN’ THE SH*T” is an original video series where professional athletes have real conversations about sports, culture and everything else happening in the world.

By now most of you must have heard about Shaquille O’Neal’s new reality TV show he is filming over the summer break. If you haven’t heard about it, it will be called “Shaq Vs.”

Each week in ‘Shaq Vs’ the big fella will be challenging stars of other professional sports to a one on one match, against himself, in their particular sport of excellence. O’Neal figures the differing sport training will provide him with the type of versatility and stimulation he needs to train over the summer and stay in shape.

The first “Shaq Vs.” episode was shot this week and for the premiere episode Shaq challenged NFL QB Ben Roethlisberger in some sort of football match. While there are no spoilers being leaked for you yet on who won the game, word is Shaq is calling himself “The Big Field General” throughout the episode and we have the following picture for you from filming, enjoy folks:

Breaking News: Shaq goes for ring with Lebron in Cleveland

ESPN

The Cleveland Cavaliers and the Phoenix Suns have come to an agreement on a blockbuster trade that sends Shaquille O’Neal to Cleveland to team with LeBron James, according to sources.

The deal has been agreed to in principle and is expected to be finalized Thursday, according to sources.

Cleveland will send Ben Wallace and Sasha Pavlovic to Phoenix for the future Hall of Famer. Sources said the Suns will also receive the 46th pick in Thursday’s NBA draft and $500,000.

The trade gives the Cavs a player they’ve coveted since February. With center Zydrunas Ilgauskas starting to break down, adding Shaq to the roster gives them a dominant force in the middle. The Cavs were obviously unhappy with their ability to defend Dwight Howard in the playoffs and bringing Shaq into the fold should help.

The Cavaliers were also in talks with New Orleans about obtaining Tyson Chandler. If they had not made the trade for O’Neal, they would have traded for Chandler, according to a source.

The Cavs felt O’Neal was the better option because he has just one year left on his contract, and will not eat up cap space that will enable them to pursue free agents such as Chris Bosh in next summer’s star-studded free agent class. Chandler, who has had injury problems the past two postseasons, has a player option for $12.7 million in 2010-2011 that he is likely to pick up.

Amazing Shot: Lebron James Hits A Bucket From Way Behind The Backboard!

I don’t like I have ever seen someone who has hit so many incredible shots from all over the court. This Lebron guy is special and I don’t think anyone has anything to stop him this year. Sorry Kobe, you may your hands full with Denver before you get a chance to even go against Bron Bron.

Jay Z “Blow The Whistle” Sticks Up For Lebron Against The Wizards …

[Download] “Blow Your Whistle”

Okay a new beef is brewing!! And guess what? It has nothing to do with 50 Cent!!

Yeah hard to believe but it seems some nefarious comments have been flying back and forth between Lebron James(Cavaliers) and DeShawn Stevenson(Wizards). Here is exactly what set it off:

Mike Wise/Washington Post
DeShawn Stevenson, a role-playing shooting guard for the Washington Wizards, deigned to call MVP candidate LeBron James “overrated” last month..

Asked to respond to Stevenson, LeBron said that would be like rap icon Jay-Z responding to a one-hit wonder like Soulja Boy. Ouch.

The rivalry has gotten to the point that Souljah Boy came to the Wizards Arena to support Stevenson and now Jay Z has chimed in with his first recording since his mega deal with Live Nation to stick up for his homey Lebron James with a scathing but on point track called “Blow Your Whistle”.
