That's crazy. I mean, what are the odds that both Delonte West and Gloria James would be unable to find their favorite type of milk at their respective supermarkets? They don't live anywhere near each other!
/Yeah, Team LeBron here as well.
Man, all the great things Westbrook has done all game, and that foot out of bounds and ensuing foul might have cost OKC the game.
Yeah, that...that ain't even human. Damn, so awesome.
Damn, 9 blocks for Ibaka through 3 quarters on top of this continuing Westbrook magic show. I didn't plan on watching this much of this, but glad I did.
He's grown on me. I hated him at first, and his voice is still kinda awkward to my ears, but you're right, he actually has shit to say. Unlike, say, Chris Webber. Marv, Miller and Van Gundy would be a dream team.
I'm not sure it's going to look as cool in replays though. The speed relative to the possession and out-of-nowhere-ness of it was what really made it. But yeah, I saw the Griffin dunk in real time too, and awesome as it was I managed to stay seated and not scream incoherently for 90 seconds. I can't say the same about what just happened here a few minutes ago.
I know, what the fuck was that about???
Dear world, get ready to see a whole lot of the dunk Russell Westbrook just threw down on Sacramento. Time to check LeBron's Twitter feed as well. Holy shit, I just got my breath back. Wow.
FFFFUUUUUUUUUUCCCCKKKKKK! Eat your heart out, Griffin, that Westbrook dunk was inSANE!!!
Holy shit! Where did Westbrook even come from on that last play??
I'm fascinated by TLC. It's almost literally just a big budget freak show at this point. Every show can basically be summed up as "look how fucked up these people are," and they still call it The Learning Channel. That said, it's interesting how probably the lowest point in lowbrow TV is coinciding with such a high pinnacle of higher-brow dramas and such. The better "officially scripted" TV shows in the reality era are probably the best ever made.
I'm in for a bit. I'm shocked how easily Sacramento keeps getting layups. What the hell is going on here?
Damn. Anyone but Kobe just travelled badly there, but killer shot anyway.
"promoted by Raysism" is just a beautiful touch for this thread. Excellent work all around.
Man, it's beating a dead horse at this point, but if he could shoot like that consistently he'd be insane.
It's weird watching this, because I used to hate both these teams so much, and I just don't anymore. Now that Kobe and Garnett both seem to have dialed down the dickhead in their twilight years, I find myself kinda rooting for them both somehow. It's probably some end-of-an-era, preemptive nostalgia thing, but I wouldn't have deigned to even watch this game 2 years ago.
Holy shit! That Rondo teardrop off the glass was pretty ridiculous!
Yeah, Kenny's little bit about the guy on a shitty team who taught him how to boost his scoring average for contract purposes was legitimately fascinating though. And the Barkley rant about "the guy who sucks the least" was gold.
Lakers-Celtics thread is GO. Anyone else see the All-Star announcement segment? I only caught a bit of it, but the TNT crew's analysis of good players making it from terrible teams was priceless. As always, a lot of it was irrational and borderline moronic, but hysterical as always nonetheless.
On the game...I swear it's almost as if the NBA orchestrated Matt Barnes going to L.A. just to put him in a uniform that makes him look the most ridiculous with his physique and tattoo placement. Not that the NBA would ever orchestrate the details of anyone's placement on an L.A. team. Not ever.
