<em>A Good Day To Die Hard</em> Is The Worst <em>Die Hard</em> of Them All

Michael Jordan's Former Agent Thinks John Wall Is Just The Worst [UPDATE]
Over the weekend, the Washington Post's Mike Wise wrote a column about Wizards point guard John Wall's recent encouraging play.

OK, so he probably didn't do this on purpose, but we still can't help but be impressed by Motiejunas's deployment of the old throw-the-ball-off-some-poor-sap's-shoulder move during last night's Rockets-Clippers game.
