Oh shit (part 8)

In the early stages of what would turn into a Heat route of the Reggie Evans-led Brooklyn Nets (0 points, 6 rebounds for the man with the big mouth), Joe Johnson left Bosh tumbling like a drunk idiot into Haslem with a sick crossover. 



Nasty, and he made the shot!  Bosh isn't someone who should be guarding a quick wing player like Iso Joe, but he shouldn't get so embarrassed either.  That looks like what would happen if I were guarding him, not an 8-time All Star.  So let's break this down: Crossover to Bosh tripping over himself, made shot, against an inferior defender for the position, AND the Heat wiped the floor with the Nets (making the bench shit-talking all the better).  Getting 3/5 Paul Pierces here.  Nice work, Joe.

Harrison Barnes makes his second entry into DOTY

Earlier this year, much to the liking of Kent Bazemore; rookie, Harrison Barnes, showed us his ability to embarrass entire families of European centers when he aggressively threw his nuts into Nikola Pekovic's face.  On Saturday night, Ersan Ilyasova, despite finally having a week where he actually looked like he deserved his ridiculous off-season contract, learned the hard way that Harrison is out to alienate every pale skinned European that stands between him and the rim.  Barnes now has 2 dunks this year that are completely viable DOTY candidates.

Dunk of the year?




That is a pretty ridiculous dunk from the Fresno St - SDSU game.  Lots of "Dunk of the Year" talk.  Personally, I don't think so.  Harrison Barnes has him beat:



And then there's this Victor Duke high school dunk:



Lots of great dunks and surely more to come (We all know BronBron and KSmoove have something up their sleeves), but I'm going with Barnes for now.
 
In ya face!

Kent Bazemore, Celebration Artist Extraordinaire

Seems our boy, DeAndre, has some competition. Bazemore is a rookie out of Old Dominion who has been back and forth from the end of the Warriors' bench to their D-League affiliate, the Santa Cruz Warriors.  Bazemore's NBA claim to fame thus far was a 7 block game in the summer league against the Bulls.  Remember, this guy is a 6'5" SG so 7 blocks is silly.
