Now <em>That</em> Was A Russell Westbrook Game
If any player in the NBA can accurately be described as basketball cocaine, it's Russell Westbrook.

While speaking to a group of fans at a Pro Football Hall of Fame fan fest, Jim Brown was asked about the NCAA and he didn't hold anything back.

Kool Keith Gets Back Into Playoff Form With "Durant & Westbrook"

LeBron Stares Down Michael Jordan On Fast-Break Dunk
Michael Jordan was sitting to the left of the Bobcats bench and partially obscured by the backboard from the first angle (thus the red arrow), but it sure as shit looks like LeBron stared MJ down as he took off for this dunk in the third quarter of Miami's 98-85 win over Charlotte....
