Ricky Rubio Makes the Spurs’ Defense Look Silly with a Double Behind-The-Back Drive (Video)
I write this post as an angry man. What is it about Ricky Rubio‘s stunning double behind-the-back maneuver during the Timberwolves’ 107-83 win over the Spurs last night that could possibly make me so angry, you ask? Oh, just the fact that ever since I decided to trade the Spanish sensation for DeMar DeRozan in [...]

Brook Lopez Posterized His Twin Brother Robin Last Night (Video)
No basketball player likes getting posterized. When another guy runs right through you and dunks in your face you just look helpless, and it’s embarrassing. Of course, there is something worse than getting posterized: getting posterized by your twin brother. After all, if you get beat by somebody who is intrinsically better than you, like [...]

I’m Starting to Think These Kiss Cam Fights Might Be Staged (Video)
This kiss cam thing is getting a little out of hand, isn’t it? Sure, it was kind of cute when it first started, and there have been some genuinely amusing kiss cam moments—like when President Obama gave his wife Michelle a big old presidential smooch at the Verizon Center last summer, or when John C. [...]

WWE Announcer Jim Ross Provides Play-by-Play for DeAndre Jordan’s Monster Jam (Video)
When the Los Angeles Clippers’ DeAndre Jordan threw down his monster dunk-heard-round-the-world over Detroit’s Brandon Knight on Sunday, pretty much everyone in attendance at the Staples Center lost their minds. Fans, players, and coaches alike were jumping up and down and shaking their heads in disbelief. The play-by-play of the jam? It was pretty decent. [...]

DeAndre Jordan Throws Down Monster Alley-Oop Dunk Vs. Pistons (Video)
Just a few days ago, we saw the Los Angeles Clippers’ Jamal Crawford and Blake Griffin team up for a showtime dunk that we said was the dunk of the year in the NBA. Well, I guess DeAndre Jordan didn’t like his teammates getting all that attention. So last night against the Pistons, he upped [...]

Failed Full-Court Buzzer-Beater Attempt Hits Raptors’ Mop Guy in the Face (Video)
What do you call the people in charge of mopping the floor at an NBA game? Mop guys? Floor wipers? Sweat removal specialists? Well, whatever you call them, their jobs aren’t as awesome as I originally thought. You see, I kind of thought that, although they do have to wipe up the sweat of grown [...]

Former Knick Renaldo Balkman Chokes Teammate During PBA Game (Video)
A good teammate is someone who would fight for you. A bad teammate is someone who would fight you. With that being said, we’ll simply chalk up Knicks 2006 first-round pick Renaldo Balkman as a bad teammate, seeing as how he pretty much tried to fight the referees and any teammate that got in his [...]

Watch Russell Westbrook Get Rejected by the Rim (Video)
How often does an NBA player miss an uncontested layup or dunk? Like, once every fifty chances—or something like that? That’s just a guess. I don’t know the numbers, but I know it is rare. So that makes the clip you’re about to see very special. Last night, the mighty OKC Thunder stopped by Madison [...]

What if Kim Jong-un and Dennis Rodman Were On the Same NBA Jam Team? (Video)
When I saw that Dennis Rodman was going to North Korea, my first thought was, oh man, Rodman is going to end up like Harry Ellis in Die Hard. Remember Harry Ellis? He was the d-bag coke-head with the hot’s for John McClane’s wife who thinks he’s knows what he’s doing, so he tries to [...]

Nate Robinson Busts Out Showtime Layup in Bulls Loss After Missing His First Six Shots (Video)
Showing off when you’re the team that’s running away with the game? That might be a little questionable. But showing off when you’ve just missed your first six shots of the game, and it’s only the 1st quarter? That’s always a bad idea. Apparently the Chicago Bulls’ diminutive Nate Robinson disagrees. Last night against the [...]

Jamal Crawford and Blake Griffin Give Us the Alley-Oop Dunk of the Year (Video)
You know what professional basketball players really love? When a team that has a 15-point lead with just 6 minutes left in the game starts busting out their slam dunk contest material. Because, you know, they’re already getting embarrassed on the court, so the other guys might as well use the opportunity to practice their [...]

Minnesota Timberwolves Respond to the Miami Heat Harlem Shake (Video)
The Minnesota Timberwolves do not like the Miami Heat. You could tell that from the altercation on the court between J.J. Barea and Ray Allen on Monday night, and you could tell from Barea’s comments after the game. You know how else you can tell? From the T-Wolves’ response to the Miami Heat Harlem Shake [...]

J.J. Barea Hurled Foul Language at Ray Allen Following an Altercation Last Night (Video)
It’s always fun when players are mic’d up for games so you can hear exactly what they’re saying to each other in the heat of the action. However, it’s even more fun when they aren’t mic’d up, because then we get to decide for ourselves what they are saying. And in some cases—like the video [...]

Check Out the Orlando Magic Dancing Dads (Video)
Cheerleaders have always been a great way for basketball teams to entertain their fans during timeouts, between quarters and at halftime of home games. And it makes perfectly good sense, as gorgeous women dancing in short skirts has always been a great way to attract a large male fan base. But in Orlando, they like [...]

What Exactly Did LeBron James Call the Referee?? (Video)
On Sunday, the Miami Heat stopped by midtown Manhattan to take on Carmelo Anthony and the Knicks at Madison Square Garden. The Heat, of course, extended their winning streak to 14 games with a 99-93 victory, and—guess who?—LeBron James tossed in a team-high 29 points. However, the game was not without frustrations for His Royal [...]
