The Funny, Stupid Thing of the Day

We have a new Shaqtin’ the Fool for you from our friends at Inside the NBA on TNT. The highlights include Lakers guard Nick Young having no idea how to throw a baseball and Thunder center Kendrick Perkins taking a seat on Grizzlies guard Mike Miller.

Dunk of the Night

It must be hard for Clippers center DeAndre Jordan not to make a highlight every night. This time, he’s taking full advantage of having Chris Paul on his team and finishes this great lob for the jam.

Crossover of the Night

In what was a supremely awesome basketball game between the Clippers and Thunder last night, Kevin Durant did this to Clippers forward Jared Dudley. Jared was going one way while the MVP went the other way for the hoop.

Tweets of the Night

We can’t decide which tweet was better, but these are both gold. The first features Thunder forward Caron Butler taking a moment to snap a photo with one of the best boxers of all time sitting courtside, Floyd Mayweather. Next, we have HEAT forward LeBron James giving a shout-out to one of his close friends and former city by sporting a recently-minted Johnny Manziel Browns jersey.

Buzzer-Beater of the Night

John Wall and the Wizards didn’t win against the Pacers last night, but Wall did everything he could including this awesome crossover and buzzer-beater to end the quarter. While the Western playoffs are getting all the attention, don’t forget to check out the incredibly close series between the Pacers and Wizards in the East.

Kicks of the Night

Spike Lee must be proud. Check out these amazing Jordan’s giving a shout-out to Mars Blackmon, who helped sell the legendary Jordan’s back in the 90’s. Must-have kicks for sneakerheads out there.

Circus Shot of the Night

A renewed defensive commitment by the Pacers helped them get the lead in the series over the Wizards. But, this win didn’t come without some luck like this crazy circus shot by Pacers guard Lance Stephenson.

Swag of the Day

The whole Blazers bench gets the award of swag of the day. Hard to pick out a weak link in this classy, well-dressed group.
