It's NBA All-Star Weekend. And you know what that means, we get to see clips of Shaq dancing.
Who's more fun than Shaq? He's like a kid, a kid that is 7 feet tall and 370 pounds. Shaq wins championships, breakdances at All-Star games, and fights crime. It's impossible to hate Shaq, unless you're a big turdburger like Kobe Bryant. Only people who double as feces sandwiches could hate Shaq.
All-Star games usually mean nothing, but NBA All-Star weekend is always fun. Even though everyone complains the dunk contest has sucked for the last couple of years, I even think that's fun. This year's contest was amazing in particular because Gerald Green shocked the crowd in this year's by somehow managing to pause in mid-air and stop time like Hiro Nakimura during each dunk.
Kenny Smith said it best, "That dunk is like grandmama's Kool-Aid."
On a more serious note, former NBA player John Amaechi revealed that he is gay, and Tim Hardaway announced that he hates gay people. What he said is really harsh and bigoted, especially in light of Charles Barkley and referee Dick Bavetta's budding relationship.
I have no problems with gay or lesbian people. If a 600 pound black man and a 200 year old evil warlord of the sith wish to spend their lives together, that is their business. Who is anyone to judge? Unfortunately, people like Tim Hardaway spew hatred against couples like Sir Charles and Dick Bavetta, and that is sad. That is sad for the NBA, and it is sad for America.
