1. DeShawn Stevenson is tattooing his jersey on his back. “It’s gonna be real nice,” he says. Um, OK. [D.C. Sports Bog]

2. The Incredible Hulk drops acid. [YouTube] (thx, Shoals)

3. Which teams will shock us all this season? Chris Clarke likes the Grizzlies, Warriors, ‘Cats and … Pacers!? Clarke: “[Indiana] is a pretty nice team that should make the playoffs in one of the low seeds. Jermaine O’Neal, when healthy, is an All-Star. Troy Murphy isn’t flashy, but he can play. […] Jamaal Tinsley might have an “up” season after a few down ones. Mike Dunleavy, Ike Diogu, and Marquis Daniels round out a pretty solid team … on paper. I’m not betting much on them, but I have some faith in Jim O’Brien. Just enough to say they’ll win more than 40 games.” [End of the Bench]

4. Three trade scenarios to bring Kobe to the Mavericks. A Josh Howard, Devin Harris, Damp and change package isn’t that bad, really. [Dallas News]

5. Steve Nash will lead the Phoenix Suns to their first NBA championship, the Raps will go 36-46, and D-Wade will win the MVP trophy averaging 31.6 ppg. What? This NBA Live 08 simulation tells me so. [The Canadian Press]

    Video games in canada. Just when you thought you’ve seen it all…

    I’m saying the Pacers should win 41 games…why? I just don’t see them, barring injuries, winning fewer games than last season (when they won 35 and almost made the playoffs)- a new coach, a full preseason and training camp together (that mid-season trade with the Warriors gave them a bunch of new guys who had to figure things out on the fly), and they play in a (admittedly strong) division that is virtually the same as last season. Chicago, Detroit and Cleveland are virtually no better than last season. I don’t hate Indiana. They might be watchable this season.

    It doesn’t work for Vince Young, and it doesn’t work for you, DeShawn.
