Candace Parker Packs Lailaa’s Shot ( Video )

Lailaa Parker brought some Kool Aid to a Block Party, and she got served! Yeah, Lailaa Parker just learned to walk, and is the daughter of WNBA star Candace Parker and Timber Wolf Sheldon Williams, but what better way to let the world know you are ready to come back.

“Mommy Don’t Play That!”

Kobe Bryant Supports Tugwater

Secret: This is a Vitamin Water viral ad campaign.

Kevin Garnett, who is about to opt out of his “lifetime” contract with adidas, tells us about the importance of clean shoes in this 2007/08 campaign.

Once upon a time, in a galaxy far, far away… Shaquille O’Neal was a fit, lean, fighting machine. He was a man who could take the ball from end to end, cross guys like Byron Scott over and finish with an emphatic jam as Reggie Miller tried to hang from his arm.

Looking at the 38-year old Shaq, the one who has played 1170 games, it is sometimes hard to remember this young, almost-nubile Shaq. It’s good to be reminded sometimes. And to feel old as we remember that this was 18 years ago.

Steve Nash has been in South Africa during the 2010 FIBA World Cup. Here is video as he stopped off in Soweto, a primarily black-occupied part of the country. It is hard to imagine many other NBA players appearing as comfortable and giving of his time, when mixing with people on the street that he has just stumbled across. Steve Nash is one cool dude.

We’re always tracking the important issues in NBA ‘staches here at Stacheketball. A little while back we posted this Michael Jordan Hanes commercial, which features a poor choice of mustache by His Airness. Well, Charles Barkley has weighed in on the issue with his considerable girth.

Take it away, Trey at Ball Don’t Lie:

“…because of his friendship with the greatest to ever do it — Michael Jordan, no doy — Barkley’s commentary on MJ is especially incisive. So when the Chuckster got to talking to Dan LeBatard about Jordan’s latest Hanes commercial, you knew something good was going to happen. From a transcription by Sports Radio Interviews:

“I have got to admit when I saw that commercial I had to take a double take… That is one of the stupidest things that I have seen in a long time. First of all, I can’t believe that they let that commercial get on the air like that. I mean in making commercials, they have got little ladies there making sure the cheese is right. When I am shooting the Taco Bell commercial they have got this little woman making sure that every cinnamon twist and every piece of cheese is in order and now they let my man get on TV with that terrible mustache. I was totally in shock and just, I just can’t believe that. That is really not good at all.

As usual, Chuck is right and hilarious. That really is a terrible mustache. And when you consider that Jordan’s made a few appearances on the cover of America’s premier men’s style magazine, this mistake is even more galling.”

Tell it like it is, Chuck.

Guillermo Liked Sex and The City Part Dose. Jimmy Kimmell sent his security guard to the NBA Finals media day.

Guillermo is short and Mexican. He does not have much in common with the NBA stars. He clings to the only thing he has which is speaking Spanish with Pau.

Breaking Video: How Did Ray Allen Break The NBA Finals 3 Point Record? Ray Allen dropped a bucket like a Bronco on Sunday night. His eight 3 pointers set a new NBA Finals record, and I loved that Kenny the Jet Smith texted Mark Jackson to remind him that Ray was about to break his record.

You know at the beginning of the NFL season, how everyone keeps track of who is undefeated and then compares them to the 1972 Dolphins. Then, when the team eventually loses, all of the players from that team throw a party. I think Kenny did them same thing every time he watched an NBA Finals game. I know that is a lot of parties, but what else is he going to do. He is retired from the NBA. He hangs around Charles Barkley. The TNT gig is ovah for the year. etc…

Anyways, this video is hilarious. I explains why Ray Ray broke the record, and why the Celtics won the game.
