Best Vertical Jump Program – 3 Mistakes To Avoid When Choosing
Choosing the best vertical jump program can be kind of a pain, primarily because there are so many out there you just can’t figure out which is best. When I set out to find a program that would help my increase my vertical leap, I found that are 3 mistakes you generally must avoid:
Jason Williams To Return To NBA Action With Orlando
Veteran point guard Jason Williams is returning to the NBA after a season away from basketball. Williams announced that hes re-entering the league this season, and will do so in an Orlando Magic uniform. Williams is tentatively slated to be the backup for starting playmaker Jameer Nelson.
Portland Acquires Marcus Camby
The Portland Trailblazers have needed a big inside presence ever since starting center Greg Oden and backup Joel Pryzbilla went down with season ending injuries. They finally found one on Tuesday as they acquired veteran Marcus Camby from the Los Angeles Clippers. Camby is expected to make his debut in a Blazers’ uniform on Friday when Portland hosts the Boston Celtics.
Clippers Fire Head Coach Dunleavy
In one of the stranger front office shakeups in recent NBA history, the Los Angeles Clippers have ‘relieved’ Mike Dunleavy of his head coaching duties effective immediately. He’ll remain on board as the Clippers’ general manager, and both he and the team cited the demands of the forthcoming trade deadline and free agent market as a catalyst for the change.
Big Names Missing From NBA All Star Game
The NBA All Star game was played without a couple of high profile participants this year as the Los Angeles Lakers’ Kobe Bryant and Philadelphia 76ers’ Allen Iverson would not play due to injury. Kobe and ‘AI’ were the latest in a string of injuries to All Star players that also claimed Portland’s Brandon Roy and New Orleans’ Chris Paul. The NBA has been much more strict about missing the All Star game after many players would come up with illusory ‘injuries’ right before the game that miraculously healed before play resumed after the break.

Portland Trailblazers, Brandon Roy Agree To Contract Extension
After a summer of negotiational back and forth during which both sides indicated at various points that they were far apart and then making progress, the Portland Trailblazers have inked All Star shooting guard Brandon Roy to a five year contract extension. Roy will be in the final year of his rookie contract in the forthcoming NBA season, and securing the services of a player that did no less than turn around the franchise was the teams top summer priority.
Why Foot Braces Are Vital If You’re Keen On Sport
In the past, athletes, sports professionals as well as those recuperating from ankle injuries tape their ankles up. This a time consuming process and requires the expertise of a medical professional. These days there are orthodontic braces available that not only provide superior support for your ankle, it is also a lot easier to put on.
