- SPORTS BY BROOKS reports that the Phoenix Suns are taking democracy to the next level — fans will decide who makes the Suns’ dance team.

- YARDBARKER argues you shouldn’t take any fantasy football advice from stat geeks, because they don’t know anything. I have about 25 fantasy championships that would be happy to dispute that. (No wonder they never post any of my fantasy content…)

- AWFUL ANNOUNCING has video of Jemele Hill getting into trouble (again), this time for a dumb (but relatively innocuous) comment about how Packer fans should treat Brett Favre. They also have audio of Jay Glazer firing back at ESPN for poo-poo’ing his Favre-to-Minnesota stories (which obviously turned out to be true).

- RED’S ARMY details why Steve Nash does not like Shaquille O’Neal.

- RED’S ARMY found this news report covering the Boston Celtics dancer auditions. It’s more of a pageant, really. There is more video here.

- SPORTS BY BROOKS has more details on the Reggie Miller-hitting-on-a-’married’-woman story. DEADSPIN digs further.

- MMA MANIA has an extended video preview of the Carano/Cyborg fight.

- DEADSPIN reports that Baron Davis’s laptop has been stolen and his lawyer is already threatening to sue anyone who publishes the “content.” Hmm.

If you like NBA dancers (and really, who doesn’t?), be sure to check out SI.com’s 2009 Swimsuit Issue website, which features dancers from 10 different teams.

NBA dancers walk that fine line between athleticism and voluptuousness, not quite pretty enough (or too athletic) to be full-time models, but way too hot (or not desperate enough) for the pole. Either way, it’s nice to see Sports Illustrated utilize the NBA dancer pool for the swimsuit issue. There is a video of each dancer’s shoot, thirty pics of each girl, and twenty or so group photos.

So I decided to link to my favorite picture of each girl and rank them #10 to #1…
