Not only do stories get covered up when LeBron gets dunked on by college kids but stories ALSO get covered up when LeBron is a host of a crazy The Hangover-like Vegas Party.  If you haven’t heard, an ESPN Los Angeles writer was invited as part of LeBron’s entourage at his recent party at the TAO night club where he wrote an article about his adventure that night but ESPN later pulled it.  If you don’t want to read the full article (via Deadspin), the good folks at The Basketball Jones reenacted the night.  Part 2 after the jump.

Nike Sportswear is throwing a huge 1 Love block party tomorrow evening at their 21 Mercer Street block (exact location is Mercer in between Grand and Howard).  Music will be provided by DJ Clark Kent, DJ King Soloman, and Miss Banks as good times are for sure to be had.  I would be in attendance if I weren’t celebrating my homie Ardy’s 22nd birthday at Club Royale in Boston the same night.  If you’re in New York City though, check out the flyer after the jump and roll through the spot.

The Team Jordan brand just released this full set of commercials where their team of hoopers explain their love for this game we refer to as basketball.  Up top is Michael Jordan’s spot and after the jump is Chris Paul, Joe Johnson, Gerald Wallace, Mike Bibby, and Kevin Martin’s commercials.

MTV is already in the production for Jersey Shore Season 3 although Season 2 just premiered last night.  Supposedly one of Snooki’s friends, Deena Nicole Cortese, will be the newest guidette to join the house.  The Jersey Shore still entertains me but it might get played out after 3 or 4 (or 5) season…More pictures of Deena Nicole after the jump.

Nike, HANDS DOWN, is one of the GREATEST marketing companies in the world.  You may think they’re an athletic shoe and apparel manufacturer but do your homework and read some case studies – they are an elite marketing company.

The next time this song leaks, it won’t be called Problems and it’ll have a singer doing the hook.  For now though, it’s Problems produced by Jim Jonsin and Cole is still the truth!  Download link below:

Fresh off of selling 176,295 copies of Teflon Don (good for #2 in the country only behind Slim’s Recovery), Rozay hits the studio hard to give the fans two new records.  The first is Peelin’ Money Fast and the second is a freestyle over that viscous Waka Flocka Flame song. Download links below:

^^ Who’s that?!  She’s Larissa Riquelme aka Paraguay’s biggest soccer fan and she’s the post’s image JUST because.  What’s in this post then?  A bunch of unreleased tracks that leaked yesterday (from the same mixtape that the new Gucci and Yelawolf song was on) from the likes of Fabolous, Nicki Minaj, Trey Songz, Swizz Beatz, Jim Jones, David Banner, and Vado.  Some are finished and some aren’t; some are throwaway tracks and some are just verses; and some are good and some are bad.  Either way, there’s a lot to choose from.  Download links below:
