Justin Timberlake and A Summary of His NBA Fanhood

It's pretty confusing to figure out Mr Timberlake's allegiances when it comes to nba teams, so I figure I'd do an outline for all of our education.



1) Being from Memphis and also a part owner, I was pretty sure he'd only beeen repping the Grizz. 


2) Then again, I remembered he was on team Sixers squad that made it to the finals of the NBA "Hoop-it-up" competition at the 2002 All-Star weekend.

3) He also seems to be a Lakers fan.  Or at least a very enthusiastic Kobe hand-shaker.



4) Then last night, Rasual Butler showed off a picture  of Justin Timberlake chilling with some Pacers and their coaches before their game against the Miami Heat.

Sidenote, I cannot believe that Paul George is wearing socks and sandals like I do when I go to fresh-and-easy on the weekend to pick up a snack or that Rasual Butler still wears cargo pants.


4) Then found out via Dwyane Wade's Instagram that he, Mario Chalmers and Lebron James also took really chummy-lookin' photos with Timberlake.

Justin Timberlake must have made his way over to the Heat guys after the game, cause he was busy hanging out with the Pacers before the game (as you can see from the previous picture).

Really tight line that Timberlake is teetering on of being a big fat band wagoner.  No one likes a one-man bandwagon of random NBA teams; I won't mention names but I will offer up this link.

Overall, it looks like Mr. Timberlake is just a really big fan of the NBA and taking photos with his thumbs in his pocket.  Which, I suppose, you could say is something I could have surmised just by seeing that generic NBA logo cap he was wearing last night.

Really political cap choice by the way.  It's basically what used to happen to me when I was little and I would be wearing my 'in-n-out' shirt to get a burger with my moms.  Oftentimes, the nice server lady would come over and compliment me on my shirt and then give me a free pack of stickers after delivering my double-double.

Jay Timberlake and that hat must have the same effect as his cap basically says,"hey you guys I really appreciate the company you work for.  Would you mind posing with me for some instagram pictures."

Happy Valentines Day from the Sixers

Good Puns

more clear if you understand that Lavoy Allen went to Temple University.


And of course, Nick Young's gaze.

Doug Collins Gives Big Macs to Fans



On the friday before Christmas, the Sixers ended their losing streak.

Ninety-nine on the 'board, the hungry fans started to freak

A basket, a free throw or even a Dorell Wright ill-advised three.

"Please just another point", thought those who love freebies.

Except the lead was too big; running up the score would not be appreciated.

No one wanted to see what would happen if Ivan Johnson became irritated.

Coach motioned to hold the ball,

and said ""I'll make it up to them all"

Evan did as was told and the clock hit zero.

1800 burgers on him; Doug Collins our hero.

Highlight: JR Smith Throws It Down while Doug Collins Frowns

Knicks are the early season suprise.  They've started 3-0 and their star scorer is being talked about more for his defense than offense.  Their points guards Kidd and Prigioni are 39 and 35 years of age with the former currently being regarded in fantasy sports as one of the most efficient players in the league, and the latter is contributing key minutes (see highlight below).

However, the one consistent aspect of the team was guard JR Smith's ability to make ridiculously athletic plays to bring the Garden on its feet. On this play he does just that.

Plus, check out the painfully long 3 seconds the cameramen pans to Doug Collins.  What a great highlight.
