Bawful After Dark: January 11, 2011

Kyle Lowry = Huge Carl Douglas fan
Pfft. That Derrick Rose dunk was nothing. I just did the same thing.

Okay, on an 8 foot rim.

Okay, on a Fisher Price rim.

Okay, I just thought about doing it while sitting at my desk. Whatever. Shut up.

Worst of the Night in Pictures:
Shouldn't showing off your mangled hand be an automatic technical? Damn.

Silly Luis Scola, you need to go watch more old Hulk Hogan clips before you try to tear your jersey off

Yeah, that pretty much sums up that game...

Nationally Televised Games:
Suns at Nuggets, NBA TV, 9pm: There's more drama in Denver than a soap opera crossed with a reality show comprised of hormonal girls. (In other words, it's like an episode of what I assume Basketball Wives must be like.)

All The Other Games:
Bucks at Hawks, 7pm POSTPONED: Hurray, winter weather! You can fire up League Pass and watch any of the next two 7pm games instead:

Pacers at 76ers AND Kings at Generals, 7pm: These are your other 7pm options? Oy. My advice to you is to begin drinking heavily. Or watch this Youtube video about drinking.

"What you see as my drinking problem, I see as my drinking hobby"
Spurs at Timberwolves, 8pm: Anyone else excited to see if Darko outplays Tim Duncan again? No? Nobody else?

Knicks at Frail Blazers, 10pm: For all the talk about the resurgence of the Knicks and how hobbled and broken the Blazers are... the Knicks have only one more victory this season than the Blazers. Just sayin'.

Cavaliers at Lakers, 10:30pm: I planned on writing a preview for this game, but just thinking about Cleveland made me too damn depressed.

Bawful After Dark: April 13, 2010

Tony apparently got a whiff of Al Jefferson's armpit stank
There's just one more night to go in the regular season. Remember when the Memphis Grizzlies were playing well earlier in the season, and Z-Bo and crew had playoff aspirations? The disappointment has finally gotten to coach Lionel Hollins:


Kenyon Martin = DENIED
While we're watching Youtube clips, here's one shared in the WOTN comments by an anonymous reader:

Adonal Foyle, Greatest Basketball Player Ever

And finally before the pictures... While not basketball-related, I know many of our readers will appreciate this moment of fantastic basebawful. Thanks to AnacondaHL for sharing this:



Worst of the Night in Pictures:


The most depressing place on Earth. It's like Bizarro Disneyland

Latrell Sprewell likes Scott Brooks' style

You know it's bad when Mike Woodson skips right over the facepalm and goes straight to the headpalm

(Read this to yourself in a hushed tone like you'd hear in a nature documentary on the Discovery Channel)
"The Birdman swoops down from behind to attack its prey"

Stan Van Gundy isn't excited by the game -- he just didn't believe he could stoop down like this and not split his pants

"You! Get me a celebratory doughnut!"
Nationally Televised Games:
Celtics at Bulls: Can we please put this battle for the 8th seed in the Leastern Conference playoffs out of its misery? I'm tired of pretending like it's relevant.

Nuggets at Suns: The Nuggets are out of contention for the #2 seed in the West, but they can clinch their division and tie the franchise record for most wins in this game. Unfortunately they haven't won a game in Phoenix in years.

All The Other Games:
Jazz at Warriors: And yet another team in the middle of that Western Conference playoff race! And yet another team that is completely and totally irrelevant. I trust you can figure out which one is which. Screw this game. Go read this completely freaking insane article instead.

Kings at Lakers: The Lakers have dropped six of nine. The Kings Purple Paupers are, well, just terrible. So, yay! A final irrelevant battle of California teams! (Wait, the Lakers and Clippers play tomorrow? Shit.)
