We're going to continue to not care about David Stern and his NBA players association. Until the whole naming convention of New Jersey vs. New York comes up when the Nets bail we're just going to skip covering the NBA. In our opinion never has so much been written about so little.
Now hockey on the other hand...

Will the Stanley Cup be given out tonight?
Can the city of Vancouver's hippies celebrate their first Stanley Cup since the Millionaires did it in 1915? This would be the first for the Canucks franchise. Can Boston stave off elimination and force a game 7? Will Tim Thomas perhaps become a rarity of rarities, the Conn Smythe winner from the losing side?
Johnny doesn't much care for pro basketball but wallowing in LeBron comeuppance is so very very sweet. It's starting: I asked Lebron for a dollar but he gave me 75 cents. Apparently he doesn't have a 4th quarter. LeBron said he was taking his talents to South Beach. Someone should have told him the games are in Miami. Today is National LeBron James Day. Everyone gets to leave work 12 minutes early.
Go Bruins.

Security guard at the NBA offices in Secaucus was phoning in bomb threats to his own building
Incredible. Jose L. Quesada Jr. who was (key word was) a security guard at the National Basketball Association offices in Secaucus and was calling in bomb threats such as:
"I put a bomb outside . . . Gonna kill all the NBA. . . . There's a bomb outside the complex in the parking lot. I put a bomb outside in the bush. No way out. Gonna blow up at 9:00 o'clock in the morning. Good luck . . . If you come out, it will blow up. "
Now being the master criminal he is, Quesada dialed in the blocking codes before the number so his call would show up a the NBA switchboard as 'Unknown caller' but when people like the FBI get involved this ruse quickly falls away. After three days of making calls Quesada admitted to investigators he indeed did make the bomb threats.
For his troubles (and it should be pointed out Quesada did not work for the NBA itself rather a security contractor) Quesada faces penalties of 5 years in prison and up to a $250K fine.
