Blake Griffin is Back! Beast Mode vs. Lakers (RIDICULOUS)

We're going to be getting about a thousand of these alley oop highlights this season from Paul to Griffin so get used to seeing them every other day on the site.  I just can't get enough.

But how about Blake Griffin's new post game?  Wow!  Dude did not rest in the off season, huh?  He was already nasty but just imagine how much easier he will get to the hoop with moves like these.  He is going to be impossible to stop if he can do this consistently and if he gets a consistent jumper?  Look out.

The Dark Knight Rises - Official Teaser Trailer #2 (SICK)

You've probably already seen this trailer for the Dark Night Rises since it's been everywhere this week but it's too f'n good not to post up.  This looks like it might even be better than the last, if that's possible.  Check for the Hines Ward appearance during the madness on the football field too.  Crazy!

SHAQ's Parking Problem at TNT (FUNNY COMMERCIAL)

Although this is kind of a parody, I feel like this isn't too far from reality with Shaq.  He probably drives one of his beast SUV's or trucks to the set every night.  Just check out some of these monster rides.  So crazy!






 

Clippers vs. Lakers Preseason Highlights: Sick Dunks from Jordan and Griffin (LOB ANGELES)

WOW!  Now that's how you start the season off right, DeAndre Jordan.  Good lord!  That was complete beast mode right there over two 7 footers.  Not many players in the L can pull that off. 

Blake Griffin also had a nice dunk off the backboard from Chauncey Billups although he got hit with a tech for hanging on the rim which is a terrible call.  Had he let go of the rim, he probably would have fallen on his back or head but it's also just the preseason and the players are trying to win back the fans with some entertaining dunks.  Let the dude hang for half a second.  So weak.  Refs suck.

Anyway, I'm seriously considering getting NBA League Pass this season just to watch the Clippers because these dudes are going to be insane.  Just look at the highlights from last night's game in the video above.  They'll be putting up at least 4-5 ridiculous highlight dunks a game because of Chris Paul sending lobs to DeAndre Jordan and Blake Griffin all game long.   Just call them the LOB Angeles CLippers from now on.

On top of that, it's going to be fun seeing Paul torch all of the PG's in the league with crossovers and floaters.  Kid looks nice after the knee problems from last season.  I'm still upset the Celtics couldn't get him in a deal for Rondo but at least he didn't go to the Lakers and he's on a team that will be fun to watch.  Opening Night cannot come soon enough. 

NBA Pre-Season Highlights - Rondo, LeBron and Wall (THEY'RE BACK!)

Now this is what I've been missing in my life for the past 3 months.  It feels like all is right with the world again.  This was only game 1 of the NBA preseason but it already looks like we are right back where we should be with the highlights and dunks.

I obviously had to show the Rondo behind the back pass to Bass first because it was the Celtics but here are a few other gems from the weekend.


John Wall had a sick crossover that lead to an even nastier dunk on the 76ers' Craig Brackins.


LeBron had a simpler but still entertaining dunk off of a backboard pass from Chalmers. 

Runaway Golf Cart at Cowboys Stadium During Texas High School Championship (CRAZY)

At first I wanted to laugh at this but once I watched it a few times, I realized how fast that cart was going and how hard it hit those people.  Not cool.  Luckily no one was seriously injured so I guess we can look back on it now and laugh a little bit but the whole situation is just surreal. 

The only thing I found slightly amusing was the guy who ended up in the passenger seat but ended up bailing out of the cart even though he probably could have stopped it.  I know he was in complete shock and wasn't thinking straight but all he had to do was pull a leg in and hit the brake or even just use his hands since he could probably reach it.  He tried spinning the steering wheel for half a second and then just freaked out and rolled out.  Crazy!
