@DwightHoward asked his Twitter followers for suggestions on his new nickname, and after told reporters he will now go by “Iron Man.” Ironically, former Lakers star A.C. Green was nicknamed Iron Man because he played in an NBA record 1,192 straight games. Hopefully coaches are no longer Howard’s kryptonite.

NBA TV will chronicle the Brooklyn Nets’ made for TV season in their new city and new arena in a series called “The Association.”  According to the New York Times, the league will make the official announcement tomorrow with the first episode airing on October 16. “The Association” follows a similar format to the popular HBO series “Hard Knocks.”

The Nets, who are partly owned by Jay-Z, are the fourth team featured on “The Association,” following the Los Angeles Lakers (2009-10), the Boston Celtics (2010-11) and the Denver Nuggets (2011-12).

Showtime attempted a similar reality series venture by following the Miami Marlins in Season 2 of the “The Franchise.” Like the Nets, the Marlins were embarking on a new name and a new stadium but the docu-series was canceled after 7-epsidoes. Both the Marlins and MLB Network were in mutual agreement to cut the season prematurely after the Marlins, who were an NL East favorite, had a disastrous season finishing August at 55-66. Here’s

s hoping there is no reality jinx for Brooklyn’s first major sports team since the Dodgers left in 1958!

Vujacic, who played for the Lakers frmo 2004-2011 and last year with the Brooklyn Nets, told close friends he and Sharapova have been broken up for three months.

Last week, Howard was traded to the Lakers in a four-team deal. The trade marked the end of what Magic fans called the “Dwightmare.” The past year, Howard publicity criticized the team for not doing enough to build a championship contender. After the lockout in November, Howard requested a trade to the New Jersey Nets, Los Angeles Lakers or Dallas Mavericks. Despite the request, the Magic were unable to make a deal by March, and Howard amended his contract at the trade deadline keeping him from becoming a free agent at the end of the season. In May, the Magic fired head coach Stan Van Gundy and GM Otis Smith, and not long after Howard got his wish to be traded to LA.

A veteran jersey chaser, Ciara previously dated NY Knicks Amare Stoudemir and was rumored to have had an affair with LeBron James.

Perdue confirmed the rumored meeting saying, “He did. He was kind of joking but he was basically like, ‘Would you like to come eat with me at the dining hall?’ And I said, ‘Um, I’m sorry, I have a curfew. So I turned that one down, yeah.”

The 2009 Beijing gold medalist is engaged to his high school sweetheart and baby mama Savannah Brinson. James joins teammate Kobe Bryant to be in the news for their game off the court. Earlier this week, pictures surfaced of Kobe Bryant shirtless with female fans at an Olympic after party in Barcelona. The pictures caused Bryant’s estranged wife Vanessa to almost cancel plans to attend the London Games.

Despite being sentence to 104-hours of community service for unpaid child support, Rodman is dedicating the book to his children. “We’re not only excited about the project but we believe it’s a step in the right direction for Dennis,” said Rodman’s agent Darren Prince.

“Dennis the Bull” is being co-written with screenwriter Dustin Warburton, who said, “Dennis has a lot of great lessons to convey so needless to say it’s not only going to be fun, it’s going to spread a positive message which is what children’s books are all about.”

I wonder if this counts towards those 104 hours of community service?
