Jay-Z has put himself in the middle of the Lebron James/DeShawn Stevenson beef. Hov has released a diss track, entiled “Blow The Whistle,” targeted at the Washington Wizards’ DeShawn Stevenson.

It all started right after Game One of the NBA Playoffs; Stevenson called Cleveland Cavaliers star, Lebron James, “overrated.” James responded: “With DeShawn Stevenson, it’s kind of funny. It’s almost like Jay-Z [responding to a negative comment] made by Soulja Boy. It doesn’t make sense.”

In response, for Game Three Stevenson brought Soulja Boyto heckle James courtside at Washington’s MCI Center.

In preparation for Game Five, Jay-Z has jumped to the defense of friend Lebron James by tearing Deshawn Stevenson apart to the beat of Too Short’s “Blow The Whistle.”

“Ask my nigga LeBron / we so big we ain’t gotta respond / When you talking to a don / Please have respect like you talking to your mom,” Jay raps.

Deshawn has admittedly been left bothered by how far his beef with Lebron has gone, but he isn’t upset by the diss track:

“Jay-Z is a legend. He’ll go down in history. No disrespect to Jay-Z. I take it as a compliment. I like his music. I like everything he does. I would never go at a legend.”

“People think I’m going at him, but they don’t see the little stabs that he’s doing,” Stevenson says of James. “When I had Soulja Boy here. It was on the court. It was nothing disrespecting him or his family or even foul language….This is basketball. I’m not worried about the song. I’m not worried about what he did. But for Damon Jones (Cleveland Cavaliers) to get on the mic. And I heard he was saying foul stuff about me and stuff like that, they’re taking it beyond basketball to me.”

Lebron James is the new face of Vitaminwater. Here’s a promo shot from the Cleveland Cav star’s upcoming commercial for the product, to debut during the 2008 NBA Playoffs.

Moles at the Setai Hotel in Miami, the same hotel where Eve was caught ordering up lesbo hookers, report that Beyonce engaged in a weekend long romp with NBA star Lebron James at the hotel during the Summer of 2006. Bey is said to have cheated with Lebron after hearing rampant rumors that longtime BF Jay-Z was banging the brakes off Rihanna.\

According to celebrity tattle Jonathan Jaxson: “Beyonce was holed up in her hotel room for a whole weekend with James,” says the source. “They tried to keep things private, but when you are Beyonce there isn’t much private when another celebrity enters your room and doesn’t resurface for a couple days.”
