How far are you willing to go as a fan to show love and appreciation for your favorite player? Typical fans buy jerseys and surround their rooms with posters of the players they support. Others, if they are really into it, may buy up collectible items such as action figures, signed items and basketball cards. Then, there are those that will simply take it to another level that most will only dream of doing. Like this guy, for example:

Tweet of the Day: Kyrie Irving

Hey you young whippersnapper!!! Stop flopping, turning the ball over and shooting bad shots. Uncle Drew has spoken. Okay, okay. So, he didn’t lay it out there like that, but he said something.

“i’m sick of all this flippity-flopping around. these young bloods need to get real and learn the fundamentals!” - #UncleDrew

Mike Woodson for Coach of the Year? It’s still very early in the season, but no one has yielded better results than the defensive-oriented coach of the New York Knicks. The Knicks became the only undefeated team in the league – they are now 6-0 on the season – after frantically rallying from a 12-point deficit against the San Antonio Spurs in the fourth quarter on Thursday night. Dating back to last season when he took over as the interim head coach after

SH Blog: Jamal Crawford puts Ray Allen on skates, Twitter reacts accordingly

by

Los Angeles Clippers guard Jamal Crawford received some serious national attention on Wednesday night when he pulled a bunch of his signature crossover moves against the Miami Heat on ESPN, specifically on poor old Ray Allen, who could do little to contain the crafty ball handler. As some of you may know, being crossed over by Crawford is familiar territory for Allen. We’ve already covered Crawford as a possible favorite to win the Sixth Man of the Year award this season,

Tweet of the Day: Magic Johnson

The power of sport is phenomenal. There are times when everyone who follows sports is captivated, inspired or awed…And there are times when we are all disappointed, disgusted, frustrated or saddened. It happens to everyone. It even happens to former Hall of Fame players.

The reason I haven't tweeted in 2 days is because I've been mourning Phil Jackson not being hired as the Lakers head coach.

While this Tweet is quite humorous, and was most likely intended that way, it doesn’t negate the fact that Los Angeles Lakers legend Earvin Magic Johnson has a very soft spot in his heart for his team. He played

What has gotten into Kobe Bryant this season? Is it a classic case of “he’s playing well due to the Olympics experience”? The Black Mamba scored 28 points on 12-of-19 shooting to go along with eight assists in a thrilling 84-82 loss against the San Antonio Spurs on Tuesday night. His performance brings him to an average of 26.4 points on 55.1 percent shooting in eight games. He is also averaging just 17 shots per game – the lowest since the

Tweet (Facebook) of the Night: Kobe Bryant

by

Is the Black Mamba a close friend of Mark Zuckerberg or something? Bryant refuses to join Twitter, but never fails to share an important message with his fans on Facebook, which doesn’t help any of us trying to set him up with a “Tweet of the Night.” We will go ahead and pretend his messages are tweets, though, for the sake of our posts. All the key players on the Lakers already have stated their endorsement of the coaching change that
