Jersey No. 5 joins a league of ballers-turned-rappers -- i.e. Kobe Bryant, Ron Artest, Allen Iverson and Shaquille O'Neal -- with the release of his first rap song, titled 'Winning Streak (Bulls Anthem).' Getting an alley oop on the mike from R&B singer Mario Winans and Chicago's own Twista, Boozer kicks things off on a positive note. "Dream it/ Believe it/ Do it/ Let's go," he raps. " ... I use to be another little fellow with some hoop dreams/ Now I got the game laced up ... shoe string," The song is surprising catchy, mixing things up with different rapping styles. Twista comes in with his trademark machine gun delivery, and Mario finishes things up with the Auto-Tune button on. "I've been getting great response from it," Boozer told ESPN. "I did my part maybe three months ago. I think Twista did his part maybe two months after that. Mario Winans ...

Talks on a three-team trade with the Denver Nuggets and Detroit Pistons continued Monday, a person with knowledge of the discussions told The Associated Press. The trade would reunite Chauncey Billups and Richard Hamilton in New Jersey along with Anthony. Anthony refused to discuss a potential deal before the Nuggets played New Orleans in Denver on Sunday night. He said afterward he didn't think a 96-87 loss was his last game in a Nuggets uniform. "Uh-uh, not at all," he said, repeating the phrase "not at all" four times. Asked if that was an indication he wouldn't sign the extension so the trade with the Nets could be consummated, Anthony demurred, saying: "I haven't heard anything. Only, that it's just been speculation as of right now." Anthony noted that team executive Josh Kroenke and general manager Masai Ujiri "are not even here, so I don't see that happening."
