“Evidently, fans need agents also” by Zachary “Z-man” Rubenstein

“Evidently, fans need agents also” by Zachary “Z-man” Rubenstein

We’ve all seen the footage of the Orlando Magic fan who got shoved by Big Baby Davis after last night’s game-winner. This morning, it made even bigger news when the father of the young fan, Ernest Provetti, emailed league offices complaining about the shove and going so far as to compare Big Baby to a […]

Sixth Man of the Day: Yes He Can!

Lebron might be the newly crowned MVP, but can he beat a bunch of girls in PIG?  Until we see video proof, we can’t be sure. Which is why we’re proud to make Barack Obama our Sixth Man of the Day.  You gotta love a Commander in Chief who shows no mercy…

Sixth Man of the Day: Ron Artest

Normally, we don’t give the coveted Sixth Man of the Day award to a star like Ron Artest, but when someone can laugh about himself like Ron did last night, you gotta take notice. Take a look at what Ron has to say about his trip into the stands last night.  The good part starts […]

“The Five-O” by Darnell Goodman

“The Five-O” by Darnell Goodman

I’ve had my fair share of run-ins with the law. Just last month, I got ticketed in Tijuana for having a trunk load full of eleven Mexican strippers. The legal limit’s eight…who knew? But one thing that Darnell Goodman has certainly never done is gotten himself tasered. Good luck, JW. You’ll need it.

Spud’s Shortlist: A little bit of Soul, Pippin on Midgets, and the gayest picture you’ve ever seen

Spud’s Shortlist: A little bit of Soul, Pippin on Midgets, and the gayest picture you’ve ever seen

Scottie Pippin has a newfound appreciation for little people. (Afrojacks) In case you were wondering, Bobby Knight still doesn’t enjoy discussing chair tossing. (via Awful Announcing–jump to 2:30 for the fun part) Are you a T-Wolves fan?  Didn’t think so.  But just in case… (Randball) Dirk Nowitzki gives a hell of a handjob.  (At Large) If […]

Sir Charles calls Kevin Garnett

Sir Charles calls Kevin Garnett

People yawned when the Lakers and Cavs finished off their first round opponents with ease. And no one batted an eye as Philadelphia got a few gutsy victories over Orlando. But let’s face it — it’s all about the Bulls-Celtics series. So after dissecting game 5 from every angle, our own Sir Charles picked up […]

Spud’s Shortlist: Birdman, Hip Hop explained, and congrats to Jason Terry

Spud’s Shortlist: Birdman, Hip Hop explained, and congrats to Jason Terry

Sign the petition to bring back Birdman! (Denver Stiffs) Good thing Charles never used these on Dominique Wilkins… We think the Cavs should stick to their pregame routines. As you can see from the chart, the relationship between “money” and “problems” is directly proportional. Is this kid the next D-Wade? Congrats to Jason Terry on […]

Sixth Man of the Day: a moment of silence for Leon Powe

No KG?  Fine. No Leon Powe?  The Celtics are fucked. Let’s face it, with Leon Powe now out for the rest of the playoffs, the spark that “The Show” has provided the Celtics with throughout the season will be sorely missed, especially with the other injury woes that the Celts face.  So, as we shed […]

Sixth Man of the Day: John Calipari

Sixth Man of the Day: John Calipari

When Kentucky brought on John Calipari, they knew that their recruiting would improve.  But did they have any idea as to the lengths that Calipari would go? We think not.  Therefore, we’re proud to make John Calipari our Sixth Man of the day, for his willingness to recruit toddlers. According to Jerry Tipton of the […]

Sixth Man of the Day: Jeff Van Gundy

Sixth Man of the Day: Jeff Van Gundy

What, you thought we were gonna forget about little old JVG?  We don’t play favorites here at the GSF. So in honor of his baldness, enthusiasm, and willingness to grab a seven-footer’s leg like a miniature poodle whenever necessary, Jeff Van Gundy is our Sixth Man of the Day.

Sixth Man of the Day: Stan Van Gundy

If you couldn’t tell, we here at the GSF love the Brothers Van Gundy.  And seeing as Stan’s always getting the short end of the stick, we’d like to honor him by making him our sixth man of the day: And, for a different take on Stan, check out Dwight Howard’s imitation of his lovable […]

The Van Gundy Brothers

The Van Gundy Brothers

We all know that Stan Van Gundy is a Coach of the Year candidate and his brother Jeff will be calling the games this post-season.  But do you ever wonder what the wacky brothers Van Gundy do in their spare time? Man, these guys really know how to cut loose, eh? But we’re still pulling […]

We had no idea Shaq was so pressed for cash. (Ball Don’t Lie) In honor of Dwayne Wade’s 55 point explosion last night, we’d like to remind you that this guy dominates both ends of the court. (ESPN Video) Vote Kevin Love. (NBA​.com) Let’s take a moment to honor the one and only Bill Bellamy […]

Tribute to the Sixth Man

Tribute to the Sixth Man

If you’re a Knicks fan, and this doesn’t bring a tear to your eye, you’re a heartless bastard. Little known fact: Seattle has a thriving German community, thanks to this man. Why does everyone have an Uncle who loves to smoke weed? Would you hit a guy who’s wearing glasses? Gravity?  What’s that? Yo quiero […]

Sixth Man of the Day: Isaiah Armwood

Here at the GSF, we love our 6’s.  But when we saw this baller jump over 7 guys, we couldn’t help but take notice: Congrats, Isaiah.  You’re our Sixth Man of the day.  And congrats to Villanova for nabbing this guy…we see another final four appearance in your future.

Team Night at Pau Gasol’s House

All year, we’ve marveled at the Lakers’ offensive prowess and ability to “will out” the tough games. We’ve been awed by the talent of Kobe Bryant, the clutch-shooting of Derek Fisher, and the defensive abilities of Trevor Ariza. We’ve even gotten used to seeing Phil Jackson sit in that obnoxiously tall chair on the bench. […]

Sir Charles & the Big Aristotle

Sir Charles & the Big Aristotle

Adding the Big Cactus to a roster of slashers including one of the best point guards in the league was supposed to firm up an otherwise porous Suns defense, giving them the muscle needed for a playoff push. But the experiment hasn’t gone as planned. Although Shaq’s numbers are an improvement over his ’06-’07 season […]

Just Be Me

Just Be Me

Isiah Jones seems to have everything working in his favor.  Let’s face it, As Z-man’s star client, the most popular kid in school, and the reigning AAU Player of the Year, there isn’t a lot that’s holding him back. He’s even taking Rihanna to the junior prom this year. So when adoring fans ask Isiah for tips, […]

Sir Charles calls D-Wade

Sir Charles calls D-Wade

By now, everyone’s seen the T-Mobile commercials starring Dwyane Wade and the ever-lovable Sir Charles. Their bickering back and forth has not only confirmed their close friendship, but also made us chuckle…sometimes. So while D-Wade continues to solidify himself as a franchise player and veritable MVP candidate, Sir Charles decided to pick up the phone […]

Sir Charles Calls the Commish

Sir Charles Calls the Commish

While he might not be a role model, Charles Barkley has a direct dial to just about anyone in the NBA…including Commisioner David Stern. So this past weekend, after drinking half a bottle of bourbon, Charles started thinking about the current state of the game.  And against his better judgment, he picked up the phone […]
