Via Odenized, my favorite YouTube poster, comes this delightful touch. Okay, Monte. Okay. God, the Warlocks are bizarre.

All Else Is Unreal

First, read Shoals’s soul-searching here . Then take a trip through tonight’s Hawks/Warriors game: - Warriors’ color guy Jim Barnett’s keys to the game were all titled after Best Picture winners. I was talking during them and couldn’t hear, but they were: Rocky, Lord of the Rings, and Unforgiven. So I guess the game will be about underdogs (even though the Warriors are the favorite), homoeroticism, and genre revisionism. Actually, that last one makes some sense. - It’s only five minutes in and it’s safe to predict there won’t be three set plays the whole night. - Anyone who doesn’t value the importance of style to a team’s performance ...

Monta Ellis has been one of the most productive players in the league over his last 12 games.  He has averaged 25.7 points per game and has shot 59.8 percent from the field.  Wonder how hes doing it? Hot Wax.  This actually explains a lot. Tags: hot wax, monta ellis

Monta Ellis and his pregame hot wax

I know, I know, this weird Monta Ellis video has been passed around the blogosphere more than Nate Robinson at a family barbeque. But I'd feel dirty if I didn't post it here, and well, my water pressure is horrible. It's a little known fact, but Eddy Curry practices nearly the exact same pregame ritual. Instead of hot wax though, Curry dips his hands in melted milk chocolate, rolls 'em in a bowl of M&M's, and then slathers on some whip cream. He claims it's an old wives' ...
