WTF? Rodney Stuckey Gets Mean Case Of The “Itis”

Damn near 20 years to the day that the Legend Hank Gathers chunked the deuces following one of your sicker bang-outs in LMU history, Pistons guard Rodney Stuckey fell out during a timeout against King James and the Cavs in Cleveland Friday. Stuckey clutched the Pistons Trainer as teammates sat on the bench without too much concern at first until he was eventually laid out on the ground for over 10 minutes, until an EMT crew was able to get him on a stretcher and take him to a local hospital for evaluation. If seeing something like that doesn’t phase you, then you done seen some crazy ‘ish.

Fortunately Stuckey wasn’t seriously impacted by the collapse, which can best be categorized as suffering from the meanest case of the “Itis” known to man. It usually comes from eating a well-fried piece of chicken or some other delicious meal, but has the tendency to pop up at the most inopportune times, like the middle of a basketball game. Whatever the case, a temporary coma is the inevitable result.

This isn’t the first time that Stuckey has collasped on the court. During a game a few years back he suffered from similar symptoms and was forced to miss a few games as a result. Stuckey was released from the hospital the following day and doesn’t appear to be suffering from any effects of fall out, which looked worse than it actually was and he should be back to giving dudes buckets in a timely fashion.

BYD: Larry Bird Says LeBron Could Be The Greatest

Larry Legend hollered at the good folks at NBA TV a few days ago and was asked a two-part question that ended with the same answer. When asked which player most embodied the skill set that he had and which was more similar to Magic, Bird quickly named LeBron as the heir-apparent in both categories. Bird went on to say that LeBron has what it takes to be the greatest of all time, dominating the floor in a manner that makes it seem like he is merely toying with opponents sometimes. Shocker.

The critics are quick to point out that LeBron doesn’t have any rings and as such can not possibly be the greatest player of all time. King James’ squad is one of your nastier in the league but only looks respectable on paper. The addition of Antawn Jamison has been whatevs to this point and LeBron still hasn’t been given a player of a Pippen caliber to be his proverbial wingman. Look at the numbers and ask yourself this question, if LeBron was on my team would the be a contender? Obviously.

Either way, NBA Legends have taken notice and are quickly becoming witnesses. Their opinions matter way more than the average journalist, reporter or square.

King James Beasts A Beast

I know the Cavs have lost 3 straight games, and everyone wants to be quick to bash the Jamison trade, but one thing is for certain–you can’t blame King James. LeBron is doing everything he can to help his team win, like he did on this play, timing out Dwight Howard shot and not even showing him the courtesy of blocking it into the 20th row. Instead King James just grabbed snatched the ball out of the air with 2 hands and took it coast-to-coast for the bucket. Now that is what you call a beasting, but unfortunately the Magic got the last laugh, but the Cavs proverbial monkey azz in crunch time.

Even with the addition Jamison (which the team didn’t really need) the Cavs roster is essentially what you get when you lean a little bit closer to see that them roses really smell like boo boo. Big Z was playing solid and relying on Shaq to finish the season is risky, but those are decisions that Danny Ferry gets paid big cheese to make and God bless him for having the marbles to make them. But without a ring, it’s a safe bet that LeBron will make his next move his best one next season, whether that be staying in Cleveland or making a move remains to be seen.

Sick Shot: King James Buzzer Beater From Deep

“…we are not worthy…”

Now when we say that LeBron is the best in the game right now, if not all-time, a lot of the saltier breed of human are quick to talk that heat, whether it be about Michael Jordan, Kobe or any of the other handful of legends worthy of discussion. Whilst we do believe that LeBron is the truth, that doesn’t mean that these other guys aren’t really, really good…but the King is just a little bit better.

The Knicks found this out the hard way during their visit to Cleveland Saturday, as James gave them 47 points, including a stretch of 24 straight in the first half. This 3 pointer as time expired in the first quarter, let it be known that work was going to be done all night long.

In The Face: Hickson Bangs On Dwyane Wade

Dunk Score: 9.8

After witnessing D-Wade shit all over the life of his teammate Anderson Varejao earlier in the season, Cavs backup forward J.J. Hickson decided to not let that ride, getting a little redemption for Andy on Thursday night. Hickson caught D-Wade all in his grill like a Peter North 8-roper victim. All you can say after watching this is, “sheeeeeeeeeit!” Somebody please wipe D-Wade’s face, with a really big towel or napkin preferably.

The Great Debate Continues: Kobe vs. LeBron

The Kobe vs LeBron (or LeBron vs Kobe depending on who you’re rolling with) has been known to cause bitter arguments and depending on your allegiance, can even lead to some fisticuffs. The dudes in this video get into a heated argument while riding the bus. One dude is a Kobe lover while the other is a witness to the King, which leads to a great back in forth as the argument stretches beyond basketball and gets personal.

LOL: Shaq’s Boo Hollers At Wendy Williams

Damn, it’s a cold game out there. The Boo phenomenon is reaching it’s all-time peak, as wifeys, side boos, late nights and dumpsters alike have realized their power and influence in mainstream society. It was only a natural consequence of the ever-growing presence of sports. Even in a down economy, sports thrive and the athletes who play them garner the attention of the masses. Society has increasingly become obsessed with the plight of boos, to an alarming extent. But the reality is that some boos use their cheeks for big business now, cashing in to dime out.

Case in point, Shaq’s former boo Va’shaundya “Shaunie” O’Neal, who made a guest appearance on the Wendy Williams show recently to talk about the Tiger Woods situation amongst other things. Not that I would even remotely attempt to refer to Williams show as anything credible, it does do decent numbers and is on network TV. Ever the savvy businesswoman, Shaunie recently filed divorce papers after some news broke of Shaq allegedly creeping with another league dude’s (who shall remain nameless) boo. Shaq’s former boo decided to file the papers in California take advantage of her ability to get way more bread, even though the couple actually resided in Florida. She also wants full custody of the kids (cha-cheezy!) and enough bread to keep them in the lifestyle they are accustom to. Clever girl.

Much like amazing porno was an unexpected actuality of the internet, the boos ability to break out of her once maligned shell, is continuing to create controversy and forever change the game. It’s a sad state when the Boo’s interview is more important than the legend she became relevant for mashing. On the bright side, this recent revelation should drastically reduce side creeping, or blind hookers will see their GDP skyrocket.

Does King James Have Some Sugar In His Tank?

Damn, and we thought LeBron wasn’t with all the gay shit. Apparently we were mistaken. Just Kidding. You know the King probably has way more hoes than Tiger on his agenda, but fortunately for him, he ain’t the wifing type just yet so it’s all gravy. The best part about this video is the hilarious commentary from the dudes watching it. Their fascination with a clip that is less than a second long, but appears to show LBJ trying to get the Answer involved in a little male on male 69. That’s generally reserved for the penitentiary.

One of our favorite videos that will definitely make you crack up after the jump…
