Taking a break from politics for a minute, (It helps me unwind as you know) I wanted to talk a little sports if I may. I'm not a big NBA fan anymore---the regular season is almost impossible to follow these days with weird game times, days off, three networks covering them and terrible overall play. It doesn't help when your team is awful and coached by Isiah Thomas, (He's finally gone) but watching some of the playoffs this time around I've been amazed by some of the youngest talent in the NBA.

LeBron James hasn't been very good against Boston in a horrible series, but still is a force. CP3 is as smooth as silk and is playing with a chip on his shoulder against the defending World champions. Deron isn't as flashy as the other two, but has been equally impressive against Kobe's Lakers.

There are plenty of other young stars playing today that I left off this poll so put them in the comment section if you're a basketball fan. Take the poll for fun or go on to the next post.

Chris Paul: born May 6, 1985

LeBron James: born December 30, 1984

Deron Williams: born June 26, 1984
