Shooting percentage is a nice stat, but when Tyson Chandler makes 68% of his shots and most are from inside seven feet does that really make him the best shooter? Not really.

Despite Kobe Bryant having the most Quintessentially Kobe game (42 points, two steals, no assists), the Los Angeles Lakers were knocked out of the NBA Playoffs last night. Momentum shifted in part due to this insane shot from the Thunder’s Russell Westbrook.

Now that Oklahoma City has a couple days ]]>

Now that Oklahoma City has a couple days off before the Western conference finals against the San Antonio Spurs, perhaps Russell can take some time to get himself some lenses for his eyeglasses. You’ve earned it, friend.

The shirt-off between Shaq and Chuck has inspired fat people across the country to go topless. Take, for example, this Sixers fan who showed off his rather rotund midsection. Just a brief warning before watching–there are things in life you can’t unsee. This clip is one of ]]>

Oh, you wanted to get to your seat Thunder fan? No sir, not while a well-dressed Craig Sager is reporting on important issues like stadium safety in the midst of a blowout. We hope the old fella eventually got to his destination. The last thing this world needs ]]>

Oh, you wanted to get to your seat Thunder fan? No sir, not while a well-dressed Craig Sager is reporting on important issues like stadium safety in the midst of a blowout. We hope the old fella eventually got to his destination. The last thing this world needs is another senior citizen wandering aimlessly in public. There’s enough of them behind the wheel.

Does the NBA have a flopping problem? David Stern sure seems to think so and he’s going to look into fining the most notorious offenders. That search may start and end with the Los Angeles Clippers who have turned it into an art ]]>

Does the NBA have a flopping problem? David Stern sure seems to think so and he’s going to look into fining the most notorious offenders. That search may start and end with the Los Angeles Clippers who have turned it into an art form the past few months. Here are some of the worst.

Reggie Evans

And somehow, someway, Reggie Evans recovered from being shot to play in the postseason. Amazing.

Blake Griffin

When he’s not dunking, he’s flopping folks.

Chris Paul

Listen, I like Chris Paul but he’s like the black version of Manu Ginobili.

Grizzlies-Clippers Game 4

The fact somebody was able to make a compilation of flops from a single game should tell you all you need to know. Downright embarrassing.

The Nuggets forced a game 7 last night by embarrassing the Lakers 113-96. Here’s the exact moment the Lakers knew they were f-cked.

Kobe was fighting a stomach bug all day but managed to pour in 31 points on 13-23 shooting. His teammates let him ]]>

The Nuggets forced a game 7 last night by embarrassing the Lakers 113-96. Here’s the exact moment the Lakers knew they were f-cked.

Kobe was fighting a stomach bug all day but managed to pour in 31 points on 13-23 shooting. His teammates let him down however with a poor performance. Yes, we’re talking about you Pau Gasol and your 1-10 shooting and 3 rebound performance.

What originally looked to be an easy series can now go either way. Should the Lakers lose after being up 2-0 and 3-1, well, I don’t want to sound drastic or anything but Kobe will probably murder someone. A throat slash in the middle of the night O.J. style. If I’m one of his teammates, I’d beef up my security.

Chris ‘Birdman’ Andersen of the Denver Nuggets is being investigated by an Internet Crimes Against Children taskforce. He has not been arrested yet according to CBS 4 Denver. He did attend shootaround this morning for tonight’s game against the Lakers and is expected ]]>

Chris ‘Birdman’ Andersen of the Denver Nuggets is being investigated by an Internet Crimes Against Children taskforce. He has not been arrested yet according to CBS 4 Denver. He did attend shootaround this morning for tonight’s game against the Lakers and is expected to play.

We hate to speculate here but if “Internet Crimes Against Children” sounds as bad as we all think it does, this will be very ugly for Andersen. The kind of stuff you never quite recover from. That being said, in the past, these types of task forces have been known to be, how shall we say, overzealous. So put down your torches and pitchforks for the moment until more information comes out.

The talents of Nicole Alexander go well beyond just being a reality star. The diminutive “Hoopz” displayed her athleticism when she did this backflip off her boyfriend, Shaq. In a weight loss contest between Charles Barkley and the newly crowned doctor, you can bet these ]]>

The talents of Nicole Alexander go well beyond just being a reality star. The diminutive “Hoopz” displayed her athleticism when she did this backflip off her boyfriend, Shaq. In a weight loss contest between Charles Barkley and the newly crowned doctor, you can bet these kinds of fitness feats will push him ahead. I think. In truth, I don’t know much about being a competitive athlete but if you want, I can pretend like Skip Bayless.

The ending of the Celtics-Hawks game was a bit frustrating for point guard Rajon Rondo. It led to this fiery confrontation with a TNT cameraman. Words were exchanged but it more or less resembled Rondo’s final seconds on the court. A lot of movement, a lot of dancing but ]]>

The ending of the Celtics-Hawks game was a bit frustrating for point guard Rajon Rondo. It led to this fiery confrontation with a TNT cameraman. Words were exchanged but it more or less resembled Rondo’s final seconds on the court. A lot of movement, a lot of dancing but nothing actually being done. The series heads back to Boston Thursday night. I eagerly await a confrontation between Rondo and Craig Sager.

Metta World Peace spoke to Conan last night about his elbowing incident with James Harden. Not surprisingly, his answers were uh, really weird. Alternatively described as very Ron Artest.

So, let me just round up this interview for you.

Metta World Peace spoke to Conan last night about his elbowing incident with James Harden. Not surprisingly, his answers were uh, really weird. Alternatively described as very Ron Artest.

So, let me just round up this interview for you.

1.

He wore a shirt with his name on it. You know, because he forgets who he is sometimes.

2.

He said he hasn’t talked to James Harden about the elbow but he feels bad (as demonstrated by this GIF).

3.

He attacked co-host Andy Richter

4.

And he talked about nut huggers.

That’s the jist of it. If Ron-Ron had his way, we’d be elbowing players in tight spandex shorts.

A crazy woman with a history of stalking ran onto the court during the Lakers-Nuggets game last night. The woman, Savannah McMillan-Christmas, was taken away and arrested. After the incident, TNT reported the woman was banned from the Pepsi Center years ago after stalking former player ]]>

A crazy woman with a history of stalking ran onto the court during the Lakers-Nuggets game last night. The woman, Savannah McMillan-Christmas, was taken away and arrested. After the incident, TNT reported the woman was banned from the Pepsi Center years ago after stalking former player Kenyon Martin. Although this woman did not appear dangerous, the fact she was allowed access to the court is beyond disturbing. Given the number of problems, especially in the NBA with player-fan violence, its mind boggling how somebody could run onto the field of play–during a playoff game no less.

The Pepsi Center will undoubtedly review their security measures after this incident, as will many other NBA teams.

We’ve seen a number of knee injuries the past few months, but none compare to this gruesome one Baron Davis suffered during yesterday’s game. Davis left the game on a stretcher with a dislocated right patella. No word on how long he’s out for but suffice it to say, ]]>

We’ve seen a number of knee injuries the past few months, but none compare to this gruesome one Baron Davis suffered during yesterday’s game. Davis left the game on a stretcher with a dislocated right patella. No word on how long he’s out for but suffice it to say, it’s probably the rest of the playoffs (which give the Knicks current predicament–one more game). The bigger question is whether this is career ending. We’ll wait and see.

Pissed Rick Carlise was entertaining this morning but it’s nothing compared to pissed Mark Cuban. In this clip, an angry Mavs owner drops an epic f-bomb while Marv Albert just casually comments.

The immediate pan to fans exiting the arena was insult to injury. ]]>

The immediate pan to fans exiting the arena was insult to injury. Unless, of course, that’s why Cuban was upset in the first place.

The Dallas Mavericks are not playing particularly well and Rick Carlisle expressed his frustration with this epic freak out. Perhaps one of the best we’ve ever seen in the playoffs. The Mavs went on to lose in rather embarrassing fashion, 95-79. For a team that just won the championship ]]>

The Dallas Mavericks are not playing particularly well and Rick Carlisle expressed his frustration with this epic freak out. Perhaps one of the best we’ve ever seen in the playoffs. The Mavs went on to lose in rather embarrassing fashion, 95-79. For a team that just won the championship last year, they look awfully old and decrepit this year. The shortened NBA schedule may very well be a factor but getting swept in the first round is certainly unacceptable.

But yea, back to the Carlisle incident, here’s a handy GIF we made. Enjoy. Laugh. Call him Jim Carrey.

Memphis-the home of great BBQ and touchy fans. A hustling Marc Gasol was almost treated to an unpleasant act by a Grizzlies supporter last night. Watch closely as he dives into the first row and a man attempts to put “two in the stink.” It’s quite ]]>

David Beckham and Victoria were about to share a special moment on the kiss cam when this happened. Not nearly as good as yesterday’s dance team videobomb but you have to applaud the guy’s effort here. The timing of the pose and the ability to position himself ]]>

David Beckham and Victoria were about to share a special moment on the kiss cam when this happened. Not nearly as good as yesterday’s dance team videobomb but you have to applaud the guy’s effort here. The timing of the pose and the ability to position himself on the jumbotron definitely deserves our recognition.

The Miami Heat are up 2-0 on the Knicks. They look poised for a deep run in the playoffs and they’re aided by some serious injuries from Eastern Conference foes. The Heat dancers are also primed for a deep run and the TNT cameraman alerts you to ]]>

Watch as he subtly moves the camera to include the dancer’s sexy routine in the background during this postgame interview. Again, it’s subtle but hilarious nonetheless. Also, a round of applause as she’s doing some serious work.

Amar’e Stoudemire took his frustration out on a fire extinguisher following the Knicks loss to the Heat last night. No word on the extent of the injuries to the extinguisher but Amar’e bled all over the floor and left the arena in a sling.

Amar’e Stoudemire took his frustration out on a fire extinguisher following the Knicks loss to the Heat last night. No word on the extent of the injuries to the extinguisher but Amar’e bled all over the floor and left the arena in a sling.

Amar’e later tweeted an apology to the fans.

“I am so mad at myself right now, I want to apologize to the fans and my team, not proud of my actions, headed home for a new start”

“We all have done thing out of anger that we regret. That makes us human. Bad timing on my part. Sorry guys. This to shall pass”.

This would be a great time to remind everyone of the Knicks ineptitude over the last decade. Ten game playoff losing streak and no playoff wins since 2001. But yea, Jeremy Lin y’all!

So things aren’t going very well for the Boston Celtics these days. A piss poor performance last night resulted in a 83-74 loss to the Hawks. To make matters worse, Rajon Rondo will likely be suspended after bumping an official.

Needless to say, Celtics faithful are frustrated. This ]]>

Needless to say, Celtics faithful are frustrated. This rather rotund girl in particular tried to fight an entire elevator full of Hawks fans. She connects with a mean hook and her friend joins in with a cup toss. Thankfully, she’s separated from the situation before the guy goes Ron Artest on her.

With 8:00 remaining, the Memphis Grizzlies led the Los Angeles Clippers 95-71. What happened the rest of the game is almost indescribable as the Clippers mounted perhaps the greatest comeback in playoff history winning 99-98. Here’s the entire comeback condensed into one clip. Watch. Be amazed.
