Barack And Michelle Obama Were On The Kiss Cam At Last Night’s USA-Brazil Basketball Game (Video)
Whether or not you’re a fan of his politics, you have to admit that Barack Obama is the coolest President the United States of America has ever had. The guy smokes, drinks beer, has a hot wife, sings Al Green at press conferences, and, of course, is a pretty serious baller. That’s why fans at [...]

Kevin Love Thinks He’ll Make U.S. Olympic Basketball Team As “The Token White Guy” (Video)
Kevin Love had a pretty great season with the injury-depleted Minnesota Timberwolves this year. His 26.0 points per game (4th) and 13.3 rebounds per game (2nd) helped him finish 6th in MVP voting at the end of the season, despite his team’s 26-40 record. It’s no wonder, therefore, that Love is on the short list [...]

20 Douchetastic Lebron James Gifs
Let’s not kid ourselves. After tonight’s game, LeBron James will probably have a championship trophy hoisted above his head.

Chris Bosh Was Super Excited About Grabbing A Loose Ball Last Night (GIF & Video)
Poor Chris Bosh. The guy was already considered the least important member of Miami’s “Big 3.” But this year he had to sit on the sidelines for most of his team’s run to the NBA Finals, where all he could do was make weird faces. Talk about feeling irrelevant. We can’t even write a post [...]

A few weeks ago we brought you a list of the notable celebrity sightings from the 2012 NHL Playoffs. And while that crop of A-listers (or in some cases, B- or C- listers) was pretty impressive for the relatively blue-collar NHL, it’s nothing compared to today’s list of celebrities spotted at the 2012 NBA Playoffs.
