The Nuggets Don't Have A Star Player, But They Don't Need One
With last night's road victory against the Oklahoma City Thunder—a win that came on the second leg of back-to-back games—the Denver Nuggets quietly extended their win streak to 13.

Virginia High School Basketball Coach Has World's Longest Legs
Svetlana Pankratova is tall, but not absurdly tall—either 6'5" or 6'7", according to different sources. Her legs, however, account for a whopping 51.9 inches of that total. This is, perhaps not surprisingly, a world record. (A Guinness World Record, anyway.)...

This DeAndre Jordan Alley-Oop Is Disgusting And We Should All Just Go To Bed Now

Ed Reed And Eddie Money Sang "Two Tickets To Paradise" And It Was An Uncomfortable Mess
Singing Eddie Money's "Two Tickets To Paradise" sort of became Ed Reed's thing during the Ravens' Super Bowl run. He sang at the send-off before the game and at the celebration in Baltimore after the win. And probably a million times in between in the shower, too—stupid Geico commercial—but this, ...
The Philadelphia District Attorney Trolled Andrew Bynum's Bum Knees

In it, the incomparably named Stu Woo compiled the Twitter follower counts...
Start Your Weekend With An Inspirational Quote From Bob Knight
Bob Knight has a new book out next week. It's called The Power of Negative Thinking: An Unconventional Approach to Achieving Positive Results, because Bob Knight is still playing his (lucrative) role as college basketball's senile great-uncle. He sat down with Andrew Goldman for the New York Times M...
Andre Iguodala Doesn't Like Clubs Because They Are Too Damn Loud
GQ just posted an interview with Nuggets guard Andre Iguodala that includes a few entertaining insights.

Andrew Bynum Will Probably Never Play A Game As A Sixer
Nominal 76er Andrew Bynum basically confirmed what Philly fans had feared, and what most everyone else had expected: he will likely sit out the rest of the season, after running into yet another setback with his knees.
