When you are over 7-feet in height, playing volleyball and reaching over the net might be a tad way too easy. In fact, when the ball is right at the net, hammering it down on your opponent’s side should be an easy chore.

Case in point, Greg Oden and the poor girl who thought it be a good idea to try to block his spike attempt.

Check out Oden spiking a volleyball right in the grill of a girl.

Marcin Gortat’s basketball camp comes complete with machine guns

Nothing like taking in a basketball camp with your favorite NBA player. You know, lots of kids, drills being repeated, cones to dribble through, shooting competitions and much more.

But if you are at Wizards’ Marcin Gortat’s basketball camp in Poland, participants get that and much more. And by much more I mean machine guns mounted on military vehicles.

Check out this photo of Marcin manning a machine gun.

Raise your hand if you now want to go to Gortat’s basketball camp.

Video: Cavs introduce Wiggins by wrong name

0 comments by on 6/29/2014

One would think after securing the No. 1 pick in the NBA draft (again) the Cavs would have gotten Andrew Wiggins’ name right… right?

Wrong!

During the teams press conference to introduce Wiggins, was introduced as Andrew Mitchell, his father.

Talk about awkward.

Hide your future wife, Boris Diaw may steal her

0 comments by on 6/25/2014

San Antonio Spurs’ Boris Diaw has it all, riches, fame, an NBA title and gets paid to just play a game. He can have anything and any woman he wants but if this photo of him is any indication, he might just try to steal you woman.

Diaw was in Austin, TX at Lake Travis when he decided to crash a bachelorette party and kiss the wife-to-be on the cheek.

Actually, Boris was invited but still, when your woman is out and about and a pro-athlete comes around, that can’t be good.

BorisDiawBacheloretteParty

Story: My friend was at Lake Travis for a bachelorette party when she saw that Boris had tweeted about being on the lake for the day. She told her friends and they were joking about riding around the lake shouting “BORIS”, and he actually heard them from a boat away saying his name. Boris immediately swam over to celebrate with them and asked if he could kiss the bachelorette. She also claimed that they sang “All I do is win win win no matta what.”

Gortat shows that a pig is really man’s best friend

Wizards’ Marcin Gortat is enjoying the NBA offseason in his native country of Poland and either it must be a cultural thing or he really loves pigs.

Gortat was spotted in Poland at a mall and walking his pet… pig (h/t That Cover 2).

I guess that is how he rolls in Poland proving a pig is truly Marcin’s best friend.

The 76ers have no where else to go but up after last season’s debacle. However, they are making changes for the better.

Oh and they also will […]
