Who's fucking idea was it to make Bieber the voice of the NBA on Christmas?

[–]AndyRooney 66 points67 points ago

Jerry Sandusky

[–]Chamanzan[S] 21 points22 points ago

You know it was that scumbag Stern. And even if it's not, I'm blaming his punk ass anyway.

[–]EatMeerkats 15 points16 points ago

"Basketball reasons".

[–]gatorphan84 5 points6 points ago

They also play that song during all the college football bowl games on ESPN.

[–]pepito420 5 points6 points ago

Follow the line. ABC is owned by Disney which thirsts for the Bieber cock.

[–]bvanman 1 point2 points ago

I said that to my parents and my mom said "He's really famous, you know?" Yes, he's famous, but how many 13 year old girls are watching NBA today?

[–]peanutpickle10 35 points36 points ago

like how kobe tryin to cover up his vanessa tattoo

[–]piglet24 1 point2 points ago

On his arm?

[–]peanutpickle10 3 points4 points ago

yup. on the butterfly crown

[–]Chamanzan[S] 30 points31 points ago

WOW! Nice fucking move by Rose.

[–]HorseDivorce 7 points8 points ago

Nice to hear that from a Lakers fan.

[–]keeleyaurora 22 points23 points ago

I love Derek Rose, even though he's not a Laker. I think if you really love sports, you can recognize good performances by a variety of players, even if they aren't on your team.

[–]Mynamesjd 7 points8 points ago

I couldn't agree more. I have a ton of respect for other teams out there. Lakers are my favorites but that doesn't mean I can't recognize quality basketball. D. Rose is a beast.

[–]billups1 1 point2 points ago

And Derek Fisher continues to get exposed, somehow he still has a starting job in this league.

[–]GottaLoveFishTacoz 40 points41 points ago

  1. That was traveling

  2. DON'T CARE, ROSE!

[–]pepdek 18 points19 points ago

Deng is really unappreciated.

[–]inkoso 9 points10 points ago

Deng is the whole reason Drose was able to win the game. Deng brought them there with the driving and getting fouled, he made those free throws all in a row without missing when it counted, made the 3 point play off the missed 3, and he was the guy doing lock down D forcing some really important turnovers.

[–]peanutpickle10 17 points18 points ago

"c'mon troy!" -things kobe never thought he'd have to say in career

[–]nkotb47 13 points14 points ago

I still can't believe the Lakers are starting their season with Derek Fisher and Steve Blake as their point guards. Very frustrating.

[–]BackToManhattan 34 points35 points ago

D Rose: Too big, too strong, too fast, too good.

[–]Salva_Veritate 7 points8 points ago

I wanna step back and kiss myself!

[–][deleted] 10 points11 points ago

I automatically upvote any Stacey King quotes. Can't help myself.

P.S. Get yourself some flair, Bulls fan!

[–]TheGreatestRedditor 10 points11 points ago

GREAT GAME!!!!! Even though Deng got away with a travel, ROSE!!!

[–]warbrain 23 points24 points ago

"World Peace has just thrown a punch at Noah."

[–]keeleyaurora 22 points23 points ago

Those missed fucking free throws just lost us the game

[–]peanutpickle10 11 points12 points ago

geez, kobe hasn't been surrounded by this many white guys since colorado

[–][deleted] 9 points10 points ago

Please don't play Beiber's christmas song. I have nothing against the kid, but The Mavs lack of chemistry has made me cringe enough today.

[–]inkoso 5 points6 points ago

God damn, if that comes on every single time we go to break, i will throw my TV.

I hate seeing that kid enough, now i have to hear his fake ass autotuned voice making money on my screen. FUCK

[–]keeleyaurora 6 points7 points ago

Justin Bieber makes me wanna kill myselffff barumbumbumbummmmm

[–]roofletrain 8 points9 points ago

That was a dagger by Kobe, damn

[–]Big_Pete 2 points3 points ago

I LOVE D ROSE

[–]BenderTime 7 points8 points ago

Kobe being Kobe

[–]An_Upghost 6 points7 points ago

I really like Asik. Excellent bench player.

[–]bvanman 1 point2 points ago

Needs to finish down low

[–]mazingerz021 6 points7 points ago

OMFG.

[–]riles2 13 points14 points ago

Holy fucking shit, DRose demonstrating why he's the reigning MVP with 4 seconds left in the game.

[–]leapyquacky 13 points14 points ago

I love that the gibberish Boozer yells when battling for a rebound gets picked up by the court mics. HAHDOOAHHOW!

[–]shiftyeyeddogg 3 points4 points ago

"GIMME THAT SHIT!" [misses rebound]

[–]Baghdadification 6 points7 points ago

I was falling asleep during the game. It's been a long xmas day, it's 2.05am in Germany right now, but it was worth staying up to see that. Fuck NBA, I missed you.

Good night everyone.

Edit: like Red Auerbach once said... you know why they're called "free throws"? Because they're free! Sheesh, Lakers.

[–]kdaw 16 points17 points ago

That Deng travel is going to haunt me.

[–]Dr_Disaster 10 points11 points ago

Derrick Rose proves why he's worth every penny of that 95 million.

[–]CelticsStigNasti 5 points6 points ago

Who's ready for some fucking BIEBER?

[–]Lakersdavidprevails 5 points6 points ago

Those free throws late game really hurt the Lakers. Can't believe both Pau and McRoberts missed both their free throws.

[–]burman26 10 points11 points ago

Just solid swarm defense on kobe.

He had to shoot around noah, right into Deng's hands.

sup

[–]warbrain 4 points5 points ago

Noah, don't take those fucking shots.

[–]Chamanzan[S] 4 points5 points ago

Kobe ain't right. 2 mis-handles in a row?

[–]mcdvda 5 points6 points ago

After that heat v mavs game, this game is flying

[–]roofletrain 4 points5 points ago

Bieber even makes the commentators moist

[–]bacheror_flog 1 point2 points ago

huzzah! i'm not the only one

[–]nomerde 5 points6 points ago

I like how the NBA is using their retro Nazi era Jew logo on their uniforms.

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points ago

The Bulls couldn't hit a shot to save their fucking lives. Also more fucks are being given by LA.

[–]killermicrobe 4 points5 points ago

Why did he decided to go and throw a lay up against the Chicago bigs? I don't think that was the best decision Kobe :(

[–]MaestrO_ 4 points5 points ago

BRB Drinking a lot

[–]Jesus_Shuttlesworth 13 points14 points ago

DERRICK FUCKING ROSE

[–]pepdek 8 points9 points ago

For the win!!!!

[–]astrobeen 11 points12 points ago

GG Lakers - that was a travel - I'll give you that for sure. But what a great game. I hope Kobe heals up and we can do it again in June for the Finals.

[–]warbrain 8 points9 points ago

That dunk got me hard.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

For a bag of chips I'll give you a hand-job.

[–]warbrain 1 point2 points ago

Deal.

[–]AndyRooney 2 points3 points ago

You already cheating on me, bro? the fuck?

[–]warbrain 2 points3 points ago

I...uh...

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

[–]jman077 7 points8 points ago

Metta World Peace. So awesome.

[–]burman26 6 points7 points ago

Now I get to turn on my Self Abuse Bears game. Love you all

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points ago

It's wayyyy to early to tell, but it seems lie D-Rose is playing like more of a pure PG.

[–]An_Upghost 5 points6 points ago

This would be a horrible game for him to start doing that, considering who the Lakers' PGs are.

[–]tm24 2 points3 points ago

Pau Gasol wasn't in trade rumors, he was in a trade! Get it right Turico.

[–]Caringforarobot 3 points4 points ago

Insert fry meme***

Not sure if Lakers are playing good or Bulls are sucking.

[–]Bullsraycadaver 6 points7 points ago

I think both.

[–]Salva_Veritate 1 point2 points ago

The first 1.5 quarters minutes or so were really sloppy but both teams seem to be getting it together. The price we pay for a two-game preseason, I guess.

Worth it.

[–]Chamanzan[S] 3 points4 points ago

KOBE!

[–]CelticsStigNasti 1 point2 points ago

Dude's on fire at the moment

[–]Salva_Veritate 3 points4 points ago

[–]Chamanzan[S] 3 points4 points ago

PAU!!!! What a move!

[–]warbrain 4 points5 points ago

We need some white v. black mamba.

[–]Chamanzan[S] 3 points4 points ago

What a game!

[–]HnB 3 points4 points ago

Who the hell was dwight talking to while he was walking in?

[–]TheTacoBellDiet 1 point2 points ago

I think he was singing some Christmas carols.

[–]Bullsraycadaver 2 points3 points ago

Come on Bulls!

Play some D! Get some points!

[–]keeleyaurora 3 points4 points ago

nail biting

[–]Chamanzan[S] 3 points4 points ago

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?!!?!!?!

[–]Infant-Blender 7 points8 points ago

Double team? Oh I'll just throw up a turnaround fade-away from the corner.

[–]gregm1 4 points5 points ago

It's 2 AM here and I might've woken up my entire house.. What an ending :D

[–]warbrain 9 points10 points ago

DERRICK FUCKING ROSE.

[–]roofletrain 6 points7 points ago

Nice fucking three Rose

[–]warbrain 2 points3 points ago

Goddamn Mavs-Heat running long. Get me to this game.

[–]An_Upghost 2 points3 points ago

There ya go Rose.

[–]An_Upghost 2 points3 points ago

That's a very tough-nice shot, Kobe.

Not-Keith-Bogans is a nice addition to the Bulls.

[–]cookieboy 2 points3 points ago

Woo basketball!

[–]warbrain 2 points3 points ago

Guys, it's called the L. Not much of it is underground.

[–]CelticsStigNasti 2 points3 points ago

Well we almost got through a NBA recap without mentioning Tebow. Almost..

[–]nojutsu 2 points3 points ago

So when will Rose dunk on Jesus?

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points ago

Rose is really really good.

I can't hate, he seems like a good guy.

[–]gatorphan84 2 points3 points ago

lol Blake is awful

[–]Chamanzan[S] 2 points3 points ago

jesus! Enough with the 3's.

[–]warbrain 2 points3 points ago

These passes are killing me.

[–]bball0718 2 points3 points ago

I don't know whether to be impressed by the Lakers or disappointed by the Bulls.

[–]Chamanzan[S] 2 points3 points ago

fuck

[–]warbrain 2 points3 points ago

Wrist is really bothering him. He's grabbing at it and closing his fist.

[–]TheoreticalEnglish 2 points3 points ago

Well, damn. I can safely say Kobe still got it.

[–]matko5 2 points3 points ago

glad to see black mamba back, clutch shot

[–]Donjelee123 2 points3 points ago*

Welp... Thats that. Edit:nvm

[–]shay626 2 points3 points ago

Lakers could not have defended that worse.

[–]CelticsStigNasti 2 points3 points ago

OH FUCK. So glad NBA's back.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points ago

And it just gets worse for Kobe..

[–]MrSelfImprovement 2 points3 points ago

DAE wonder why Kobe threw that pass to Gasol that led to the Rose game winner when he could have just held the ball and waited for the intentional foul since there was no shot clock left?

[–]AndyRooney 4 points5 points ago

Troy Murphy...not a good looking man. Im not sure wether to saddle him or feed him straw.

[–]keeleyaurora 5 points6 points ago

Just put a feed bag on him he'll be okay

[–]bacheror_flog 4 points5 points ago

fuck yeah murphy!

[–]mcdvda 3 points4 points ago

Just WOW

[–]Erickj 5 points6 points ago

Derrick Rose is the MVP for a reason

[–]Lakersjonsterrr 2 points3 points ago

LUOL DEEENG!!!!

[–]Pazians 4 points5 points ago

My god they came back hard I was seriously starting to lose hope when boozer was throwing up what appeared to be bricks from the freethrow but he redeemed himself and drose showing why he's the reigning mvp with pure ice water in his veins

[–]AndyRooney 3 points4 points ago*

No Bynum, no Odom, Kobe's finger wrist*....please don't let this be a repeat of the Heat-Mavs shitfest we just witnessed.

[–]Caringforarobot 1 point2 points ago

It's not looking good bro.

[–]warbrain 2 points3 points ago

It's looking great for me.

[–]AndyRooney 6 points7 points ago

Can you kindly suck on my cock?

[–]keeleyaurora 2 points3 points ago

Troy!!!

[–]Chamanzan[S] 2 points3 points ago

Murphy and McBob are coming through today....And Blake just sunk it as I'm typing this.

[–]roofletrain 2 points3 points ago

ROSE!

[–]mcdvda 3 points4 points ago

MVP

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points ago

THE HYPE IS REAL, FUNK!

[–]redbrick 5 points6 points ago

GOD DAMMIT.

But hey, no blowout. I'll take it.

[–]pepdek 3 points4 points ago

It was a great back and forth game.

[–]Rhenio 3 points4 points ago

Omg, That shot by Rose! Awesome!

[–]warbrain 3 points4 points ago

D-Rose, please take over...

[–]Deesha2012 3 points4 points ago

WISH FUCKING GRANTED. HOLLYYYY SHITTTT!

[–]bacheror_flog 1 point2 points ago

Mcbob for mvp!

[–]fatfryar 1 point2 points ago

McRoberts looks even paler than usual in that white uniform. You know you are white as fuck when you make Pau look tan.

[–]AndyRooney 2 points3 points ago

Its weird...we got rid of Odom and signed all these white boys to go with Blake, Luke and Pau. we have the all-sunburn team.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

Did Boozer lose weight?

[–]warbrain 2 points3 points ago

Yes but he's still sloppy on defense.

[–]morpheo 1 point2 points ago

Should be interesting to see how rip fits in with chicago

[–]Chamanzan[S] 1 point2 points ago

Pau Vs. Noah should be a good matchup.

[–]dill_pickles 1 point2 points ago

anyone got a stream?

[–]H4d193 1 point2 points ago

Thanks

[–]fatfryar 1 point2 points ago

Is good Pau back?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

It just hit me that Phil Jackson isn't LA's coach anymore. Time fucking flies.

[–]AndyRooney 4 points5 points ago

"Time fucking flies."

[–]lucky_lisp 1 point2 points ago

Can someone explain the yellow dots?

[–]lucky_lisp 1 point2 points ago

timeouts?

[–]An_Upghost 1 point2 points ago

Yo, when did Boozer get hair?

[–]Chamanzan[S] 1 point2 points ago

There he is. Hi Kobe!

[–]Bullsraycadaver 1 point2 points ago

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

A lot of drama around the Lakers this offseason, I think people are forgetting how good Kobe can still be.

[–]TheTacoBellDiet 2 points3 points ago

And how good Pau still is.

[–]AndyRooney 1 point2 points ago

ummm...until Kobe's shooting wrist heals can we get someone else shooting the technicals? Thanks.

[–]HnB 1 point2 points ago

Gasol turned into a 3 point marksmen

[–]An_Upghost 1 point2 points ago

Rose needs to chuck moar. Taking only one shot is unacceptable.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

So ummm...how would I go about getting Heather Cox's number? Not that I would know how to talk to her, but I'm sure I can do a decent job creeping her out.

[–]AndyRooney 1 point2 points ago

but I'm sure I can do a decent job creeping her out.

"Hi Heather, this is turtlecunt69...."

[–]RewindYourMind 1 point2 points ago

I love the Bulls Bench Mob. It's always a good sign when your 2nd line can go in and get a lead back for you.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

That was a fucking charge by World-Peace.

Edit: On second thought, maybe it wasn't.

[–]TheTacoBellDiet 1 point2 points ago

That was a flop.

[–]warbrain 1 point2 points ago

World Peace flopped on the floor.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

Here comes Rose.

[–]AndyRooney 1 point2 points ago

This Rose kid isn't half bad...

[–]AndyRooney 1 point2 points ago

good fucking job fisher...jesus

[–]astrobeen 1 point2 points ago

this was a really entertaining half of basketball - combined with this really annoying teenager singing "little drummer boy"

[–]HorseDivorce 1 point2 points ago

Of course, the people that watch NBA are the perfect market for justin bieber!

[–]gatorphan84 2 points3 points ago

Yeah, just like the constant barrage of JLo/Fiat commercials during NFL games.

[–]TheTacoBellDiet 1 point2 points ago

I have a question for any Salary Cap buffs. If the Lakers were to trade Pau + Bynum for Dwight this season would they be able to sign Deron Williams to a contract next season? (Basically would they be under the cap if they were to trade Pau and Bynum).

[–]Chamanzan[S] 1 point2 points ago

Not if they have to take on Hedo's contract.

[–]TheTacoBellDiet 1 point2 points ago

yeah, i totally forgot about that. lemme crunch some numbers lol.

[–]AndyRooney 1 point2 points ago

You should go to ESPN trade machine but that wont happen because the Magic will make the Lakers take back Hedo's horrid contract...

[–]TheTacoBellDiet 1 point2 points ago

totally forgot about that

[–]Chamanzan[S] 1 point2 points ago

Get kupcake off the screen! I want to watch the fucking game!

[–]An_Upghost 1 point2 points ago

Stop being unselfish Rose. It's time to go into Unicorn Mode.

[–]TheGreatestRedditor 1 point2 points ago

Lmao I love these Derrick Rose 3 pointers, Fisher looks helpless lol

[–]Chamanzan[S] 1 point2 points ago

It's a Bieber-Busta Rhymes collaboration! That makes it so much better. phew!

[–]keeleyaurora 2 points3 points ago

cries

[–]AndyRooney 1 point2 points ago

This is weird...its like the Bulls are just handing us the game.

[–]keeleyaurora 1 point2 points ago

it's still way too early to say that

[–]keeleyaurora 1 point2 points ago

That healing drug sounds like some Space Oddessey shit

[–]keeleyaurora 1 point2 points ago

oh kobe... <3

[–]shay626 1 point2 points ago

Is rose the only on on the Bulls that can make a bucket?

[–]keeleyaurora 1 point2 points ago

This is totally unrelated but that LMFAO NBA commercial was made by the company I work at and I totally stole some of the winter swag.

Holy shit! This is fucking awesome!

[–]Bulletscranberrysaus 1 point2 points ago

HOLY FUCKING SHIT

[–]anyonethinkingabout 1 point2 points ago

nice shot by Rose

Kobe should've known they were coming after him...

[–]lakerswiz 4 points5 points ago

And thats why he passed the ball. Pau needed to go get the pass, not wait for it to be delivered the next business day.

[–]rawringdino 3 points4 points ago

It was a poor pass and Gasol was expecting Kobe to hold it and draw the foul which is what he should have done.

[–]spyson 2 points3 points ago

Why would Kobe pass it in the first place? Holding it and getting free free throws would have been much better.

[–]lakerswiz 1 point2 points ago

Chicago wasn't going to foul first on the first pass.

[–]HnB 4 points5 points ago

Heather cox is hot...
