LeBron James is making a guarantee about this third Finals appearance: This time there will be no regrets.Though his playoff career has been accomplished, the two worst series of James' career have been his two previous trips to the Finals. Speaking Monday as he and his Miami Heat teammates prepared to face the Oklahoma City Thunder in Tuesday's Game 1, James was confident that trend would come to an end."At the end of the day in this series I'm going to play my game and try to do whatever it takes on both ends and make plays," James said at Cheasapeake Energy Arena. "Whatever the results, I'm going to be satisfied with that. I'm going to be happy with it because I know I'm going to give it my all."James was certainly not satisfied with his production in the Finals loss to the Dallas Mavericks last year and plenty of people wondered if he'd given it his all. After averaging 25.8 points, 7.8 rebounds and 6.3 assists in the conference finals, James had little impact in the series against the Mavericks. He averaged just 17.6 points, which was stunningly third on his team. His Game 4 performance, where he only scored eight points as the Heat lost control of the series, was arguably the worst game of his career. Source: ESPN

Boston mayor Thomas Menino, who has a dubious history of blunders and mispronunciations when talking about the city's sports teams, stuck his foot in his mouth again Wednesday when discussing the Celtics' performance in the Eastern Conference finals."There's a lot of heart in this team, let me just tell you," Menino told reporters, before adding, "KJ is great but Hondo is really the inspiration. Hondo drives that team."KJ, of course, should be KG, Kevin Garnett. "KJ" was the nickname for former Phoenix Suns guard Kevin Johnson, who is currently the mayor of Sacramento. And "Hondo" was Celtics legend John Havlicek's nickname. Hondo hasn't graced the Boston parquet since 1978. Menino was referring to Celtics guard Rajon Rondo.Menino appears to be able to laugh at himself, however. On Thursday, he tweeted: "You know it's championship season when I flub our athletes' names! Sorry KG & Rondo, it's kind of my thing -- another Menino-ism!" Source: ESPN

In a deep draft class, the lanky power forward is right there at the head of it. Source: ESPN

"I told (general manager) Gar (Forman) and (vice president John Paxson) how committed I am to just being with the Bulls.

If the Nets win the lottery to select Anthony Davis, it will not be enough to sign Deron Williams as a free agent, according to sources."It's Dwight Howard or bust," said a league source who has spoken to Williams.Williams doesn't want to wait for Davis to develop and won't re-sign with the team unless they become an instant contender.The Nets believe they will be able to retain Brook Lopez in a potential trade with the Magic if they win the lottery.Sources say Howard regrets opting into his contract and seeks a trade before the 12-13 season. But the Nets become a far less appealing destination if Williams leaves and that is why Howard's camp is putting pressure on the Magic to do a deal once a general manager is in place.
