With all of the bounty talk in New Orleans, the last thing they needed was more fuel to the fire.
That's exactly what they got though when Jason Smith decided to plow through Blake Griffin on a fast break last night.
Everyone knows how much I love my city of Flint and the people who succeed from here. JaVale Mcgee is one of them, but it's hard to watch what he's doing in the NBA this year. A fan put together the 'Not Top 8' of JaVale from just this year and it's pretty bad.
Check out the plays below and let's pray Mr. McGee and somehow turn things around this year.
You have to be a real NBA fan to sit through an entire Rockets vs Nets game, so thank god for highlights.
Otherwise we may have all missed this amazing dunk from Nets guard Gerald Green.
Have you ever watched an NBA game and saw something so bad, that you are convinced that you could play in the league?
Nick Young of the 'Wizards' provided us with that moment in a game against the Laker's the other night.
The problem is that on the same night, Blake Griffin showed us all why we will never play in the NBA.
The Minnesota Timberwolves are an actual NBA team, with real uniforms and everything.
They have some of the best young players on their roster, and are actually doing OK this year.
So why do they have to keep on doing promo videos to give the team exposure? Who cares if they keep being this funny!
Even though Blake Griffin is not the current slam dunk champion, most people consider him the best dunker in basketball today.
Some people might even say he is one of the best ever, but not Shawn Kemp . . . he has some things to say about Griffins "dunks".
New York Knicks guard Landry Fields has been having a great season, but with all the 'Linsanity' in the big apple, he has gone under the radar.
I think he might start to get a little shine after showing off his pipes of gold during a press conference, maybe even a post NBA career.
Saturday night of the NBA All-Star weekend might have been a little bit of a let down for fans, but Sunday night more than made up for it.
With pre-game performances from Nicki Minaj and Mary J Blige things were off to a very good start.
Nicki Minaj caught a lot of flack for her Grammy performance, but definitely smoothed things over with her fans this past weekend.
She was the pre-game performer for the NBA All-Star game, and absolutely killed the stage.
The Minnesota Timberwolves are one of the most talented, young teams in the NBA. However since they are located in the North Pole, they have to resort to things like this for people to notice them.
New York Knicks guard Baron Davis took to Twitter to explain that his gesture in Tuesday night's game against the New was a kiss not a reference to smoking marijuana.
Baron put his fingertips to his mouth like he was toking on a roach after he sunk a three-point shot which happened to be the first ever shot he hit with the Knicks.
