I Can't Stop Looking At This GIF Of These Two Lakers Bros
This happened at yesterday's Lakers game. I can't stop watching it. I mean, just look at this fucking guy. The emphatic whipping off of the sunglasses, the backward hat, the arched eyebrow, the curl of his lips as he unleashes what was surely an epic bro-yawp, the fact that he was wearing sunglasse...

Report: Andrew Bynum Hurt Himself While Bowling
Andrew Bynum will finally play for the 76ers when ... oh, who fucking knows?

Via Trey Kerby, the above mournful tweet, from J.R. Smith, the web designer (and, as his Twitter bio puts it, "NOT A BASKETBALL PLAYER"). If you're wondering how the other J.R.

"I'm 38 Years Old, Baby": Things Rasheed Wallace Said, Did, And Pointed At During Last Night's Knicks Game
Rasheed Wallace: lover, fighter, hilarious training camp invitee, and talker of the best trash in the NBA.

In His Battle With The Rockets, Royce White Throws Out The Nuclear Option And Takes A Stand Against Professional Sports
Royce White's been struggling. Picked 16th by the Rockets this summer, the hybrid forward was demoted to the D-League on Monday, went AWOL for about a day, and resurfaced to accuse the Rockets of mishandling his increasingly famous anxiety disorder. The Rockets wouldn't concede that point, and start...

Tony Parker Crossover Leaves Raymond Felton Confused
In fairness to Felton, it looks like he was anticipating the screen from Tim Duncan, and that he was trying to avoid it. Felton eventually figured out where Parker was going about an hour later, but the Knicks still won. They're now 6-and-fucking-0....

Greg Monroe Nailed A One-Eyed Free Throw
In the second quarter of the Pistons' 94-76 win in Philadelphia, their first of the season, Greg Monroe was poked in the eye by Spencer Hawes. With his contact lens out of place, Monroe swished a free throw. After adjusting it—and regaining binocular vision—Monroe missed the second....
Charlotte Bobcats Commit A Chris Webber, Escape Minnesota With A Win Anyway

How Anderson Varejao Quietly Lit Up The Nets Last Night
Anderson Varejao scored 35 points and grabbed 18 rebounds last night in a loss to the Nets. It feels crazy to write that, because Varejao isn't the kind of center you expect to put up such fat numbers. He's the "energy guy," the big man who never stops moving, fighting for rebounds, tipping balls t...
Packers Lineman Gives One Hell Of An Answer To "Boxers Or Briefs?"
The great thing about Twitter is that you can ask an athlete anything—anything, truly—and you just never know when they're going to answer you and how.
