May.20.2008 // Game 7: San Antonio Spurs Vs. New Orleans Hornets

The San Antonio Spurs took the last game in the series between the New Orleans Hornets last night (4-3). The final scored was in the Spurs favor by 9 (91-82). The New Orleans Hornets’ depressed me last night. They played as if this was GAME 1 instead of  GAME 7. They acted as though they didn’t want it bad enough. Tony Parker dropped shots last night. He totaled 17 points and 5 assists. Tim Duncan put up 16 points and 14 rebounds. Manu Ginobili scored 26 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists. Robert Horry, who rarely touches the court, said at the end of game 7:

“People always talk about you being old because you don’t dunk anymore or slash as fast as you used to slash, but we’re one of the smartest teams in the league and we have a very good coaching staff,” said Horry, “We didn’t make stupid mistakes tonight.”

May.19.2008 // MTV’s Hottest MCs In The Game List

MTV’s Hottest MCs In The Game aired last night and the list and debate went on hard. They listed many of the best rappers in the game as of now, although I don’t necesarily like how they situated these numbers. They put T.I. at number 10! They obviously don’t keep up with the rap game that much, or else they’d know he still has an album coming out this year.

Check out the full list after the cut.

May.19.2008 // [VIDEO PREMIERE] The Game F/ Keyshia Cole - “Pain”

Here’s the video for Pain, The Game’s new single featuring R&B songstress Keyshia Cole. Word on the sidewalk is that home boy is trying to recruit the dude that knocked Suge Knight senseless to his record label.

“He’s the Knockout Kid. We was looking for him, we found him, and trying to sign him. (Suge’s) not a boxer. It’s not like he’s Muhammad Ali, and he’s been in the game and somebody finally beats you. Suge, back in the day, he had it locked in Los Angeles. But now, your time comes and goes, and you have to respect the new breed, and now that’s me.

I got L.A. locked, and 10 years from now there will be a new dude. Ten years from now, when I’m 40, there’s gonna be a new kid and I gotta respect that dude. Hopefully, the Knockout Kid’s little brother don’t hit me or something … or step to me. I don’t want no problems with the Knockout Kid.”

May.19.2008 // T.I. and Tiny Welcome New Baby

Rapper T.I. and longtime girlfriend Tameka “Tiny” Cottle welcomed their second son together after midnight Friday morning. The little tike’s name is Major Harris, and he weighed in at 5 pounds, 15 ounces. Major is the 5th child for Clifford, and the 2nd wtih Tameka. The two already have a 3-year-old together, King Harris.

So uhm, they thought it’d be “cute” to name their kid after a military rank, huh. Not surprising since the first one’s name is “King.” So what if they decide to procreate again, and it turns out to be a boy? Are they gonna name it Lieutenant? Or maybe Colonel?

Paul Pierce totaled 41 points, 5 assists and 4 rebounds. Kevin Garnett scored 13 points and 13 rebounds. Rajon Rondo scored 8 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists. I must say I am disappointed about the Cavs loss. I really wanted to see LeBron progress within the playoffs. Garnett said at the end of Game 7:

“Today it was basically get the ball to Paul Pierce and get the hell out of the way,”
