The Lamb Shake

Forget the John Wall, forget the dougie, and forget the bernie because the Lamb Shake is where it's at right now. This move is about to take off in clubs everywhere if UCONN wins a couple more games and Lamb's doing this thing with a piece of Reliant Stadium's net in his hand. Jeremy Lamb is killing it up at Storrs as a freshman, both on the hardwood and on the dance floor. Brandon Knight and Kentucky better watch out because who knows what kind of head fakes and crossovers this kid can pull off in the lane with dance moves like that at his disposal.

If The NBA Made Sense

You think these things are loosing to some deer?

Have you ever been frustrated by the result of an NBA game? Not because you’re a fan of one of the teams or your favorite player had a bad shooting day. I’m talking about when the result doesn’t make sense.  Like when Milwaukee beats Toronto by double figures. Cause I mean that doesn’t make sense. No way a bunch of deer could take down a gang of Velociraptors, who basically ran shit in the cretaceous period, let alone beat them handedly. I could see if maybe the bucks used their horns and got a couple of lucky take downs at the beginning and made the game close, but no way a raptor loses to an animal who can't even cross the street without dying.

Is Crying Ever Okay in Professional Sports?

The recent watery-eyed meltdowns by various Miami Heat members had me thinking: Is crying in professional sports ever okay?

You see players crying in sports games starting from a young age.  Some obnoxious, spoiled kid on my 7 vs 7  soccer team would always be in the parking lot after losing a game, balling his eyes out, and in between the sobs saying, "But I'm the coaches son, why didn't they pass to meeeee?"  I couldn't stand that immature bullshit back then, and I still can't stand it now.

I think there are some situations when crying is acceptable (even expected) in the sports kingdom.  Most of the time though, these crying athletes gotta lay of the Midol and act with some dignity.

Here are two examples of when crying is okay:

1) Adam Morrison crying on the court after losing to UCLA in NCAA March Madness.

I was always a big Adam Morrison fan so I remember watching this game live and watching as Morrison absolutely broke down after his team blew the lead and lost by a bucket.  Watch at 0:10 for Morrison's reaction.  He got a lot of shit for crying, but I support him (The pubey snake on his upper lip I don't support however.) It was a meaningful game.  That was his last chance at March Madness supremacy and he lost a game that he had in the bag.

2) The Celtics crying after losing Game 7 of the 2010 NBA Finals.

I mean, what else would you expect them to do?  If any player on any team is in that situation isn't crying, then something is wrong with them.  The Celts gave their all and left everything on the court.  Of course they were upset.  A rapist just got his fifth ring, I think God was even crying after that game.

To sum it up:  The Heat are embarrassing themselves.  Unless you just lost one of the biggest games of your career, there's excuse for crying.  Pull your shit together.

Weekend Highlights:

1) Lebron's crying!
2) Celtics are streaking!
3) BC's Dancing?
4) Sucks to be Brandon Davies...but at least he got some!
5) Charlie Sheen for President!

Just Jimmer It

One of the biggest games of the NCAA Basketball regular season is tomorrow.  I doubt anyone would’ve guessed it would be between two teams from the Mountain West Conference. I mean, does anyone even watch that shit? Before this year, no one bothered with the Mountain West. Why are people watching now? Because BYU's Jimmer Fredette went ape shit all over the NCAA.  


The game between #7BYU and #4San Diego State will be a showdown between the two powerhouses this season from the Mountain West.


Jimmer Fredette has taken over ESPN highlights this year, and there have been a lot of talks about how early in the NBA draft he will go. I remember when he was in high school and he played against my school. Everyone would talk about whether Jimmer could make it to the NBA. Most said he was too slow, too short, and too white. 


This is a valid point because, seriously, how many white people do you see in the NBA? Jason Kidd doesn't even count because even he's half-black. I mean, other than Dirk and Nash, I can’t think of many more - no one decent at least.   

Jimmer Fredette is on track to be National Player of the Year, and he should be. He is averaging 27.4 ppg and has only scored under 20 points three times this year. He shoots 90% from the free throw line and fucking kills it from behind the arc, and if you’ve seen any highlights you know "behind the arc" includes anywhere over half court.  For all his contributions to his team, he is clearly the most valuable player in all the NCAA. 


Tomorrow when BYU takes on San Diego State University, all eyes will be on Jimmer. A win, and they should undoubtedly be considered for a number one seed for the NCAA tournament.
