LeBron James Hosts The Season Premiere Of SNL!

September 29, 2007
- LeBron James is treating his appearance on tonight's ''Saturday Night Live'' season premiere like a fast break. ''I'm going to just wing it,''
the Cavaliers All-Star forward said during a rehearsal break.
|
|
Lorne Michaels, the NBC show's creator and executive produce, said James' humorous Nike ads and his co-hosting performance at the ESPYs convinced
him the hoops star would do well on the show.
|
|
''You can tell when someone has a sense of humor or a least enough perspective on themselves to able to laugh at stuff,'' said Michaels.
|
|
James, 22, got his lines Wednesday and did a read-through Thursday, leading Michaels to believe ''The Chosen One'' might have another natural gift.

LeBron James & Team USA FIBA Champions!

September 26, 2007
- LeBron James put a record finish on the Americans' dominance in the desert. James scored a team-record 31 points as the United States
beat Argentina 118-81 on Sunday to win the FIBA Americas championship.
|
|
Dwight Howard made all seven of his shots and scored 20 points, and Carmelo Anthony added 16 points for the Americans, who were never challenged,
while winning 10 games in 12 days and will head to Beijing next summer as one of the gold medal favourites.
|
|
The game was largely meaningless, because both teams had already clinched spots in the Beijing field by winning semifinal games Saturday. But the Americans
didn't let up, remaining perfect in four Olympic qualifiers, including 7-0 against Argentina.
|
|
James finished the tournament shooting 76 percent from the field - his percentage actually dropped from 76.5 after he made 11 of 15 shots. He was 8-of-11 from
three-point range and also led the tournament in that category, hitting 62 per cent.
