Richard Sherman's Post Game Interview - WWF Remix (PERFECT)

You've probably seen the Richard Sherman interview about a hundred times by now if you watch the NFL or even clicked on ESPN for half a second but you might not have seen this awesome remix just yet. It really doesn't get much more perfect than this. Sherman was going straight WWF/WWE Promo after the game. Classic.

Lakers' Xavier Henry Dunks All Over the Pelicans (WOW)

I meant to post this up yesterday but got distracted.  It's good enough that I still had to post it.  It's definitely one of the better dunks of the fresh NBA season.  I've seen a few nasty dunks from Henry already so he is someone to watch for this year for some serious highlights.  The Lakers suck so he should continue to get plenty of playing time all year for these types of plays.  Here's another bonus dunk from a few weeks back. Dude has seriously quick hops!

Harlem Globetrotter William "Bull" Bullard Almost Crushed by Backboard On Huge Dunk (SCARY)


This was one of the scariest dunks I've ever seen.  I don't know that anyone has ever died from dunking before but this is probably the closest you will ever see.  William "Bull" Bullard is known to throw down some massive dunks where he pulls his whole body up to the rim and hang with his feet on the rim or backboard but this didn't work out quite so well. 

This looks like one of those older hoops that aren't built to withstand this much force and it just snapped and came straight down on his head.  He's lucky it didn't hit him in the neck or throat because he could have gotten paralyzed or possibly died.  He looked to be OK at the end when he came back out to watch the game but he definitely got a nice gash in his forehead.  It's nice to see he wasn't seriously injured.  

The Globetrotters might want to rethink their dunk strategy because it looks like they've been breaking backboards all over the world.  Maybe they should only do these massive dunks in the US where there are more up to date hoops that have been Shaq proofed. 


All of the rims got updated after Shaq started destroying them all back in the 90's.

Jeff Green's AMAZING Buzzer-Beater vs Miami Heat (NASTY)


This is a couple days late obviously but I had to throw it up since I still can't believe this happened.  No one even expected the Celtics to be competitive against the Heat, yet alone win this game.  They probably should have lost by about 20 had the Heat actually tried a little harder and not played to the level of their opponent (a classic old school C's move) but it happens once in awhile when playing a crappy team.  The C's also played great all game and kept themselves in it so this was just the icing on the cake. 

Had Wade just hit one free throw or even hit the rim on the second one, the game is over.  The Heat really screwed this one up multiple times.  I'll take the win though.  There aren't going to be many positive moments like this for the Celtics this season so I will take whatever I can get.  That's three wins in a row, including another solid win against Orlando on Friday.  Who saw that coming!?!?

I almost forgot about Green's sick dunks too.  Dude is finally starting to turn it around.  That's what we need!

Central Florida JC Patriots' Javonte Douglas Gets Head Above Rim on Putback Dunk (INSANE HOPS)


This might be one of the best in-game dunks I've ever seen.  I feel like I say that a lot but I keep finding bigger and better dunks that beat the last one.  I can't imagine there will be many better than this.  Javonte's head is well above the rim.  Actually, I think his chest is even above the rim. Ridiculous! 

He might have caught just a little boost from the defender and/or teammate below him but I honestly don't think it helped much.  Dude was already flying high when any contact was made.  I wish there were more camera angles and better quality video because I want to see this from every possible direction but at least there is video evidence either way.  So nasty!

"Hello Paul" - Pierce's Introduction to Brooklyn (COOL)


I have to admit that it's been tough watching Pierce and Garnett play for another team this season but I wish them nothing but the best and hope they can both get one more ring before they retire in a few years.  We all knew the rebuilding had to happen sooner than later in Boston but it's never easy to let go of your favorite players, especially those that helped bring another championship to town. 

It's nice to see Pierce embracing his new home in Brooklyn.  I'll be rooting for them all season as my "second team" after the Celtics.  It should be fun to see them playing with more talent around them again with a good chance at getting another ring before all is said and done...

Ben McLemore's Slow-Mo Dunk Show (DOPE)


I didn't know Ben McLemore had hops like this.  These dunks are very impressive for his size.  He's listed at 6'5" but I feel like he's closer to 6'3" at the most.  Either way, he can throw down with authority and it's possible we might be seeing him in the dunk contest this year.  Impressive.

Brooklyn Nets Mascot Airballs Dunk Attempt & Gets Ball Stuck Under Shot Clock (HORRIBLE)


This might be the worst mascot dunk attempt I've ever seen.  I know it's still only the preseason and everyone is working out the kinks but this is just bad.  I'm pretty sure I could do better with that without even practicing once.  I hope dude gets his act together before the season starts or he is going start getting heckled like the original Lucky at the Garden.  That dude was the WORST!!!

Guy Dupuy Self-Bounce Eastbay Dunk IN GAME @ VBL World Games (NASTY)


Believe it or not, we are only about a month and a half away from the start of the basketball season.  I found this dunk from Guy Dupuy at the Venice Beach League World Games (whatever the hell that is) and thought it was about time to post a new dunk video since it's been awhile.  This dude is one of the best and also one of my favorite dunkers around and anything he does is pretty damn impressive.  Check out this mix below if you haven't heard of him.  Dude is the real deal.

Coach Jon Gruden's Hoot Camp TV Commercial - "Pour" (AWESOME)


I saw this new Hooters commercial this past weekend when I was watching DirecTV's NFL Sunday Ticket App for the first time.  Other than the advantage of seeing every out of market game, I also got to see some awfully bad regional commercials.  This Hooters commercial featuring Jon Gruden and a super hot Hooters chick isn't the worst I've ever seen but it is a little awkward. 

The concept was pretty awesome but Gruden is such a creep and awful actor so it just makes the whole thing uncomfortable.  Either way, I think it's one of the best commercials I've seen in a long time.  Unintentional comedy, football references with sexual innuendo, images of beer and wings and last but not least, a super hot chick with bombs.  AWESOME.

Calvin 'Megatron' Johnson Transforms in New ESPN Commercial (AWESOME)


You might have seen this already since ESPN started playing it over the past few days but I just saw it last night for the first time and had to post it.  This is so simple and obvious, I'm surprised ESPN or someone else didn't use the idea before.  Kudos for using the real Transformers sound effect too.  

And just for the hell of it, here is a clip of Megatron vs. Optimus Prime from the original 1986 Transformers movie and a Megatron Dubstep Track.  Dope!

Local Sportscaster Drops 31 Wrestler References During Highlights (IMPRESSIVE)




I thought this was going to be annoying or suck but it was actually pretty impressive.  This dude’s old school wrestling references are top notch.  He's still kind of a nerd but at least he used his nerdiness for good.  Well played.

Wait for the woman news anchor's response at the end of the clip.  She is just baffled by his dorkiness but I think she actually got a little hot and bothered by it at the same time.  Kind of funny.

adidas Originals - 'The House of Mutombo' Animated Video (PURE AWESOMENESS)


This promo for the adidas Mutombo shoe is awesome on so many levels.  The crude animation is great but the narration by Mutombo with his awesome accent and deep ass voice takes it to the next level.  I actually think this is perfect, although I'd love to see the long form version like a movie that goes through all of Dikembe's life highlights, including a party where he yells out "Who wants to sex Mutombo?!?!".  Nice work, adidas. 

Here's an awesome highlight video of Dikembe's classic blocks and finger wags which also includes an awesome narration by the man himself.  I can't get enough of his voice and accent.

Insane Bounce Alley-Oop from Jason Williams During Exhibition in Taiwan (WOAH!)


Jason Williams aka White Chocolate aka J-Will was ballin' outrageous in Taiwan back in June (no idea why this is just coming out now) and threw one of the best and most difficult alley oop passes I've ever seen with this nasty bounce oop.  His creativity is unreal and his execution was even better.  The dunk from former Southern Indiana forward and streetball legend Anthony Pimble was pretty impressive too.  So sick!

Amazing Game-Ending Catch at the 2013 Travis Roy Foundation Wiffle Ball Tournament (NASTY)


You may have seen this amazing catch on SportsCenter yesterday but it's worth posting again.  This was a game-ending catch which makes it even more awesome.  I don't like the fact that this counts as an out because he did go over the wall but I think due to sheer effort and athleticism that I'll cut him a break. I'm sure that dude will be in some serious pain over the next week while he's recovering.  He's lucky he didn't break a rib.  It seemed like it was worth it though for all of this recognition.  Who would ever think a wiffle ball catch would make it to ESPN!?!?!

Venice Basketball League Dunk Contest Highlights (NASTY)


I've said it before and I'll say it again, the NBA Dunk Contest needs to start letting in some of these street ballers and professional dunkers to give it new life or they might just need to eliminate it entirely. There aren't enough well known players willing to compete and the players that do aren't even the best dunkers in the league.

How about do an amateur competition for players from across the country like they do with the Sprite Slam Dunk Contest on All-Star Weekend but let the top 2 or 3 players then make it to the big show on Saturday night to compete against a few NBA players? Who wouldn't want to watch that? The NBA players might be scared because they would almost definitely lose but it would sure as hell be interesting.

Just look at this dude Purdy in the video. He's wearing a hoody while throwing down insane dunks. How about a 360 between the legs?!?! He made it look too easy. That is just sick.  This kid would destroy most opponents.

J.J. Watts Has Some Hops (59.5" BOX JUMP)

If you watch the NFL, you know that J.J. Watts is a complete beast and a freak of an athlete.  He comes in at 6'6" and about 285 pounds of pure dieselness.  He also has some insane hops in pads since he is one of the best tip passers in the game.

Some idiots out there are calling this a 59.5" vertical jump which is not accurate.  A vertical jump and a box jump are two completely different things but this is still impressive nonetheless.  I would love to see this dude on the hoops court to see if he has any dunking skills.  I'd be afraid he'd rip the rim off the basket though.  BEAST MODE!

6'2 High Schooler Christian Terrell Throws Down a Sick Dunk (POSTERIZATION)


This dunk is just plain NASTY!  I can't believe the defender even tried to block it.  I guess he was assuming the smaller white dude didn't have hops and couldn't throw down like that but he got a nice little surprise right in his grill.  Not only did the defender get called for the foul, but he also ended up on his ass and looked like a chump.  This is definitely one of the better in-game dunks I've seen so far this summer.  Very nice!

NBA 2K14 - Next Gen Reveal (RIDICULOUSLY REALISTIC)


Wow.  I can't get over how realistic NBA 2K14 already looks and it's just in the alpha stage.  2K Sports is not messing around with the graphics for the PlayStation 4.  I can't imagine games being able to get much realer than this.

They might have some work to do on the mouth matching up with the speech and LeBron looks like he has the mouth of a lion but I'm pretty sure they will get it close to perfect by the time this comes out next year.  I will still probably hold off on the new PS4 for at least a year or so but seeing how awesome some these games already look, I might have to rethink that.

LeBron's 360 Statue of Liberty Dunk in Warmups & Head Above the Rim Oop (SICK)


Here's another nasty pre-game dunk from LeBron.  This one was from Game 7 last night.  Dude is ridiculous.  There is absolutely no reason why he shouldn't enter the NBA Dunk Contest.  So frustrating...

Also, here is that nasty alley oop from Norris Cole during the game.  Dude was looking down at the rim and almost hit his forehead until he pulled it back.  That shit ain't fair!  So nice.
