Goddamnit, Matt Barnes. Last night's game between your Los Angeles Clippers and the Dallas Mavericks was really fun to watch!

This Is Why Giving Gatorade Baths Indoors Is A Bad Idea
Not only did the Lady Knights fail to properly douse their coach in Gatorade after winning an NJCA district qualifying game, they placed him squarely atop a liquid death trap.

Russell Westbrook Throws Up A Half-Court Shot That Is Total Nonsense
He was clearly trying to draw a foul here, and although he may have actually succeeded—Gary Neal's hands were right on Westbrook's chest when the shot went up—this shot was ill-advised.
