Who would have thought that one fake comment during a fake NBA game would snowball into a real song that now has a music video. Well it has, thanks to the always quotable Charles Barkley, the production talent of Miami hit-makers Cool & Dre and the video direction of insatiable Knicks fan Spike Lee.This might be the trippiest video I’ve seen ever, but I doubt it.
Happy birthday Chuck!
Cool & Dre drop the “Chuck’s Remix”, by sampling a video clip of Charles Barkley doing his no holds barred one-of-a-kind NBA commentary. Dwyane Wade is so feelin’ this track, maybe this will finally get Chuck in his 5.
Even more creative baller artwork from Oliver Barrett of Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley from his unfinished collection of sketches. As Barrett describes the Completely Incomplete project.
This project is about showing that unfinished work is capable of being equally if not more successful than a finished piece. I allot myself 15-30 minutes per day to draw a portrait. Once the time is up, the piece is finished, whether it is actually completed or not. The subjects range anywhere from actors to close friends. I try to do 5 per week depending on my schedule.
This is the third set of drawings. i took some time off from it to get some other work done.
Off the wall, quirky, and so random. I love it.
Incomplete Sir Charles after the jump.
The Phoenix Suns have been in existence for 42 long years and in that time, not once has the Larry O’Brien trophy enjoyed the dry Arizona heat for an entire summer. Sure that kinda sucks, but it’s not like they’re the Cubs or anything — my apologizes for that low blow Chicago.
Anyway, after watching this bitchin’ video put together to make it look like Steve Nash, Charles Barkley, Connie Hawkins, Kevin Johnson, Jeff Hornacek and Dan Majerle were losing for all 42 of those years together as teammates. How tragically cool.
Created back in 1987 when we thought flying cars would be available in 2010. Thirtysomething was a television drama based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania about a group of baby boomers in their thirties. If the premise of this show seems boring — it’s because it was and it lasted only four seasons.
Anyway, in this dream sequence had by the star of the show Michael Steadman played by Ken Olin. Dude dreams about beating the Celtics with a dunk at the buzzer to send the 76ers to the NBA finals against the Lakers. All that sounds exciting until you see it play out on film and I’m convinced that it’s the worst dream dunk ever televised.
Over the weekend former NBA legend Manute Bol passed away at the age of 47. Selected by the Washington Bullets in the 1985 draft, Bol went on to play 9 seasons in the NBA and was a natural shot blocking force in the middle due to menacing 7’7″ frame. Regarded by those he played with as a great guy and noted for his humanitarian efforts in his native Sudan. Former teammate Charles Barkley remembers Bol with Don Lemon of CNN as one of the funniest people he ever played with and how Manute Bol would always send money back home to aid his family living through a civil war.
Before Bol became ill, he was doing charity work in Sudan with Sudan Sunrise which builds schools in his native country and if you can spare the money, please make a donation to support his vision.
Five legendary NBA ballers came to challenge Ricardo the Busboy at Pop-a-Shot on Jimmy Kimmel Live Gamenight, and each time they fell to his greatness. Ricardo Reyes is a 41-year old busboy at Barney’s Beanery who was discovered by Kimmel after a night on the town, and became a show regular laying waste to pro ballers shortly thereafter.
After taking out Carmelo Anthony to defend his title of “Pop-a-Shot King” for the fifth time. Kimmel presented Reyes with a brand spanking new 2011 red Ford Mustang for his efforts. Good stuff Jimmy!
After the jump watch Carmelo Anthony, Lamar Odom, Kobe Bryant, Charles Barkley, and LeBron James catch a Pop-a-Shot beat down courtesy of Ricardo the busboy. Dude is unstoppable at this game!
