Wish he had never written it. The Pierce crapping himself and getting a wheelchair to cover it up is my favorite urban legend. Also Kobe for sure poo poo his pants a couple years ago.

that's a cool moment of basketball. so is this one:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1O3pq0KyXQ


seeing Dejounte Murray and Kyle Anderson on the court together is fun and weird. They're like the best aliens

this slam is kawai. I like how meek the Spurs' dunk reaction bench boys are. I also want to say goodbye to the last mamba standing. We'll miss you but now we got a ginger that can shoot threes and dunk and throw lobs and block and get ejected.

I look at how great today's production values are and wonder if thirty years from now they'll look like primitive garbage like all old NBA footage does

e: Oh man, "Olajuwon baseline jumper"

So this footage predates The Dream Shake

Melo put them ahead and the Lee dunk was sweet but was set up by Ron Baker who also had a big defensive rebound and two big free throws to close out the game.

What I'm basically saying is Ron Baker is the reincarnation of Oscar Robertson and I'm not just being a typical Knicks fan

Yeah the two have a long history. TT was the one who called Kenyon a "fugazi" because he blamed him for an injury.

edit: and two confrontations in clubs; one in which TT slapped Kenyon in the face with a stack of $100s. The beef was squashed after a sit-down in AL Harrington's kitchen.
