Now this one cracks my ass up. Not sung by Smith himself, but the lyrics are great.

Oh yeah, there's one more. A local comedian did this song about the big Russian center, Timofey "Teemo" Mozgoff.

The JR Smith one is comedy gold. Fucking brilliant.

The Dwayne Wade problem.

Players should get paid what they're worth, but they think it's ALL about them. Look at Stranger. LeBron or no LeBron and he'd be rooting for the team. Stars only put so many asses in seats.

I've always felt sports contracts should be based on performance that year, not past performance.

Despite his impeccable past body of work, the 12-year veteran said Monday that he believes he is playing the best basketball of his career right now.

"I think if you put it all together, yeah," James said. "If you put everything together as far as my mind, my body, my game. If you put everything in one bottle, this is probably the best I've been."


So the best player on the planet says he's playing the best ball of his life... I think I like our chances.

Cavs in 6!

I bet the '86 Red Sox thought the same thing.

Yeah, but basketball is a lot different than baseball in that one man can literally carry the team by himself. For the last 4 years the Cavs were arguably the worst team in basketball now they are in the finals, all because of one man. The same can't be said about baseball.

All I'm saying is, I like our chances. Best look at a championship in a loooooooong time.

That really says something about those two sports.

Due to his off the court moves and influence, yes. He's the reason they're there, and the reason they sucked. He's also the reason they couldn't get it done the first time he was there because he surrounded himself with the wrong players.

Now he's got the right supporting cast, which sort of proves one man CAN'T do it all by himself. Ask Jordan, Bird, Magic, etc.

Hell, ask Dr. J.

Finally! Air Jordans for golf.

People were clamoring for these?

If his basketball shoes make you play better, do these make you lose more bets on the links?

Ohh Warriors... Come out and plaaaaaay....
I really hope you don't end up eating those words.
25% of the way there.

I don't know what the fuck the Cavs were doing in the 4th quarter. All that stupid iso and shots from long range. You have a size advantage! Get inside.

They really need to work on passing the ball.

This might be weird to say, but Kyrie going out, might actually help their cause. They swept small ball Atlanta without him, and him being in definitely affected JR Smith's production. Should be interesting to see how the chemistry is affected.

Also, the NBA should be fucking embarrassed by that game last night. Stephen Curry put his team up using bush league tactics. That whole "fake a shot to get the defender off his feet, and then jump INTO him initiating contact, yet somehow the guy in the air is considered the rule violator" needs to be removed from the game. What an anti-climatic way to end a game in overtime.

The equivalent would be an NFL game ending with two phantom pass interference calls on back to back plays until the winning team finally got a TD to go ahead on their third try.

Lame shit.

I have been very unimpressed by GS. In fact, I think their bending of the rules is an embarrassment to the NBA and makes me wonder if Bill Belicheck is coaching the team.

The Steph Curry fake shot then instigate contact to draw a petty foul move is an absolute joke. He's making a mockery of the game. Glad the announcers called him out on it too.

Also, I've seen better officiating in the WWE. I half expect someone to get chair shot when the officials have their back turned. LeBron is getting MAULED in this series and the officials aren't doing shit about it.

Don't hate the player. Hate the game.
