            <description><![CDATA[Kobe Bean Bryant[1] (born August 23, 1978(1978&#45;08&#45;23)) is an American All&#45;Star shooting guard who plays for the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association. Bryant is the only son of former Philadelphia 76ers player and former Los Angeles Sparks head coach Joe &quot;Jellybean&quot; Bryant. His parents named him after the famous beef of Kobe, Japan, which they saw on a restaurant menu.[2]

Bryant rose to national prominence in 1996 when he became the first guard in league history to be drafted out of high school. Bryant and then&#45;teammate Shaquille O&#39;Neal led the Lakers to three consecutive NBA championships from 2000 to 2002. Since O&#39;Neal&#39;s departure following the 2003&#45;04 season, Bryant has become the cornerstone of the Lakers franchise, and was the NBA&#39;s leading scorer during the 2005&#45;06 and 2006&#45;07 seasons. In 2006, Bryant scored a career high 81 points against the Toronto Raptors, the second highest number of points scored in NBA history.[3] He was awarded the season&#39;s MVP in the 2007&#45;08 NBA season after leading his team to the 2008 NBA Playoffs as the first seed in the Western Conference.[4]

In 2003, Bryant made headlines when he was accused of sexual assault at a ski resort in Eagle, Colorado by hotel employee Katelyn Faber. Bryant admitted an adulterous sexual encounter with the accuser, but denied the sexual assault allegation. In September 2004, prosecutors dropped the case after Faber informed them that she was unwilling to testify.[5] Faber brought a separate civil suit against Bryant that was ultimately settled out of court.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[LeBron Raymone James (born December 30, 1984) is an American professional basketball player who currently plays for the Cleveland Cavaliers of the National Basketball Association (NBA). Commonly nicknamed &quot;King James,&quot; the Akron, Ohio native was highly promoted in the national media as a future NBA star while still in high school, and was named Ohio&#39;s &quot;Mr. Basketball&quot; three times. At the age of 18, he was selected with the first overall pick in the 2003 NBA Draft by the Cavaliers and signed an unprecedented US$90 million shoe contract with Nike before his NBA debut. He has since set numerous youngest player records. In his first season, he received the NBA Rookie of the Year Award and in the following four seasons received All&#45;NBA and All&#45;Star honors. He has led the Cavaliers to consecutive playoff appearances in 2006, 2007, and 2008; in 2007, the team advanced to the Conference Finals for the first time since 1992 and the NBA Finals for the first time in franchise history.

James is listed as a small forward, but often handles the ball and runs the Cavalier&#39;s offense as a point guard would. James was a member of the United States men&#39;s national basketball team that won the bronze medal in the 2004 Olympics in Athens and he finished second in the league Most Valuable Player balloting in 2006.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[The Boston Celtics are a professional basketball team based in Boston, Massachusetts, playing in the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference in the National Basketball Association (NBA). The team is owned by Wycliffe Grousbeck and coached by Doc Rivers, with Danny Ainge as the general manager. Founded in 1946, their 16 NBA Championships are the most for any NBA franchise, while the 1959&#45;to&#45;1966 domination of the NBA Championship, with eight straight titles, is the longest consecutive championship winning streak of any North American professional sports team to date. They currently play their home games in the TD Banknorth Garden.

The Celtics either dominated the league or played a large part in the playoffs in the late 1950s through the mid 1980s. After the death of their top draft pick Len Bias, just two days after the 1986 NBA Draft, the team fell into a steady decline, only making the playoffs four times from 1996 to 2007. The franchise has recently returned to dominance with the acquisition of power forward Kevin Garnett and shooting guard Ray Allen during the 2007 off&#45;season.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Sidney Patrick Crosby (born August 7, 1987) is a Canadian professional ice hockey player and captain of the Pittsburgh Penguins of the National Hockey League (NHL). He was the first pick of the 2005 NHL Entry Draft, and was one of the most highly regarded draft picks in hockey history, leading many to refer to the 2005 Draft Lottery as the &quot;Sidney Crosby Sweepstakes.&quot;[5]

In his first season, he finished sixth in scoring with 102 points (39 goals, 63 assists). By his second season, he led the NHL with 120 points (36 goals, 84 assists) to capture the Art Ross Trophy, becoming the youngest player and the only teenager to win a scoring title in any major North American sports league.[6] That same season, Crosby won the Hart Trophy as the most valuable player as determined by the Professional Hockey Writers Association, and the Lester B. Pearson Award as the most valuable player as determined by the NHL Players Association. He is the seventh player in NHL history to earn the three highest honours, which are the highest individual awards for an NHL forward.[7]]]></description>
