What is status worthy about this video?

I don't get it. This isn't good or interesting. So why is everyone making it their status?!?!?!?!? How is this a remix? How is this talented? He is just hitting things that make sound when you hit them really hard. Everyone who posts this as their status must be faded off the brown.

Observation from Celtics-Pacers Game


Here is my observation from tonight's Celtics game, which the Pacers dominated for a half and then got dominated. Dahntay Jones and Tyler Hansbrough don't like each other. They are teammates on a bad NBA team and they don't like each other. In the second quarter Tyler took his first shot of the night, a jumper from just above the free throw line, that missed. Dahntay was on the bench and stood up and shouted something along the lines of "That's a bad shot!" This was false, although I guess it was a little early in the possession, but Dahntay seemed to be concerned his team would let their 15+ point lead slip away, something everyone in the world knew would happen. I thought for a second why Dahntay would say such a thing, was he trying to be a leader or wanted to use clock or what and couldn't really figure it out. I let it slide because one instance of Dahntay getting pissed at Tyler doesn't mean anything. I mean everyone gets pissed at Tyler Hansbrough, no one of course actually likes him. Maybe I can respect that he is playing decent in the NBA because no one else really tries very hard for three quarters and he tries hard so he scores baskets. Additionally, he and Josh McRoberts are much better at dunking than you would think two white guys are. I watched them in warm ups. Also, Tyler Hansbrough made this commercial.

NEWAYZ, in the fourth quarter, Dahntay got called for a somewhat bogus offensive foul for posting up too hard. I guess he hooked his arm around Paul Pierce, but whatever. As Dahntay complained and then came down the court, he and Tyler had a quick interaction. I think Tyler tried to feed him the ball before the foul, but Dahntay barked something at Tyler and then Tyler seemed to make fun of him for getting the foul called on him. I don't know what they said, but Dahntay was pissed and Tyler was kind of confused and responded. Big picture, they don't like each other, and the logical explanation has to be either Dahntay is pissed that Tyler dunked on Kenny George in college or that because Dahntay went to Duke he doesn't like Tyler who went to North Carolina. I feel bad for Tyler who has THREE Duke teammates: Dahntay, Josh, and Mike Dunleavey. That sucks bro. Basically what you get from reading this is my earth-shattering news that Dahntay Jones and Tyler Hansbrough don't like each other. I hope you don't stop reading because I thought I was cool for figuring this out.

Starting PG: Tyreke Evans | Sacramento Kings

‘Reke or ‘Reke Havoc, as we like to call him on this blog for the first time ever because it hasn’t been updated since the summer, is the Starting Point Guard for the 2009-2010 All-Cool Team. ‘Reke Havoc edged out fellow rookie Brandon Jennings of the Milwaukee Bucks because 1) no one has ever actually been to Milwaukee and so we aren’t sure it exists and 2) no one really knows what is going on with his hair. In one week’s time, Jennings’ hair went from short with little curled up things (not a good look) to being in cornrows (see the pictures below this). As someone who has never worn cornrows, I know that you need to have long hair don’t care to wear cornrows, so Jennings probably got hair extensions. Credit Greg Wright with that joke. G-WRIGHT YOU HAD ME ROFL-INNNNNNN WITH THAT ONE!!!!


Anyways ‘Reke Havoc just carried his Sacramento Kings back from a 30+ deficit against the Chicago Bulls, and has somehow made the Sacramento Kings good even though they give significant minutes to super randos, i.e. Jon Brockman. Best thing about ‘Reke is that he really cannot shoot that well, evidenced by his multiple missed free throws down the stretch against the Bulls (BUT WHO CARES ABOUT FREE THROWS WHEN THEY ARE FREE, LOL!! IF YOU MAKE MILLZ OF DOLLAZ WHY WASTE UR TIME WITH FREE THROWS!!!), but he still scores at will because he is faster that most human beings in the world and in the National Basketball Association. He is really good at the Manu-crossover-step-fake thing that makes big men like Andrew Bogut look girly. Even though he can’t shoot ‘Reke Havoc takes big shots for the Kings at the end of games when he can’t drive because 5 men from the opposing team are in the lane. He takes these shots because you don’t want Beno Udrih or Andres Nocioni taking them if you are a Kings fan. ‘Reke Havoc did take a big shot against the Bulls with under a minute left and the shot clock winding down and buried it. He then proceeded to perform the Sam Cassell “I have big balls” dance as he strutted back to the bench where teammate Donte Greene (also VERY cool) was also doing the infamous dance. Bottom line, ‘Reke may not have the style of the coolest players in the league, but he has the game as a 6’6 super-fast point guard who averages 20 & 5 and whose jersey I would proudly wear to Frary Dining Hall on a warm Friday afternoon.
