Another gem from Andy Gray's SI Vault

Okay, so that day full of games we got yesterday came at a small price: there are only two games today. The good news? We still have plenty of pictures from last night. Also I got an opportunity to play some more NBA 2K10 yesterday. I should have a post about my latest exploits in the game up later this week, I promise.

Before anything else, we have to address this. Greg Oden has obviously had plenty of free time in the past couple of years with all the constant injuries to his ancient bones and joints. Well, now we know what he's been doing with that spare time: refining his vocal talents.

Yes, in case you're still in a state of shock, that was a video of Greg Oden singing a Backstreet Boys song. Since I couldn't find Simon Cowell's phone number, I couldn't get him to rip apart Oden's vocal stylings in over-the-top, amusing fashion. My apologies. I doubt he would have fit in our $0 budget anyway.

Also, as AnacondaHL noted in the comments, Week 2 of the NBA Jam player voting is up. This time around, we get to vote which players make it in for the powerhouse teams known as the Timbewolves, the Grizzlies, and the Warriors.

A Nate Robinson painting. Yes, it exists.


You can try to hide, Derrick, but we still know you're losing to the Warriors. Sorry, man.


"Don't worry, Luke. It's cool. We just signed a 35-year-old Jerry Stackhouse who only played 10 games last year due to injury. He'll fix everything."

Nationally Televised Games:
Raptors at Crabs: Yes, the Raptors have been winning lately. However... LeBron against one of the worst-rated defenses in the Assocation? This could be uglier than Gheorghe Muresan. (And at least it should be more entertaining than his movie.)

All The Other Games:
Pacers at Heat: I love meaningless individual revenge games. According to Stats LLC: "In his first full season in Miami, Jermaine O'Neal has averaged 20.5 points on 65.0 percent shooting in two games against his former team." The Drain, everybody!
