LeBron James gets stuffed on a buzzer-beating dunk attempt by Mason Plumlee. It doesn't get an whiter than Mason Plumlee.

Vanilla wang whipping?

"HE. WAS. FOULED."

"If you think Mason Plumlee is better than LeBron James you are basketball retarded!" (is it ok for them to still use this word, or have they evolved?)

Hahaha, and UConn had a white guy in the starting 5 me thinks. Basketball should not be this white. It'll lose its cool factor.

Is Dan going to try and pretend that he doesn't know who The Ultimate Warrior was? When Randy "Macho Man" Savage died he tried to pretend that he had never heard of him.

If you grew up in the 80s, even if you didn't watch pro wrestling, there is no way you did NOT know who The Ultimate Warrior or Randy Savage were. You would have seen them on the cover of some magazine while waiting in line at the grocery store, heard kids at school talk about them, or either seen them or a reference to them on some TV show during that time.

I don't watch The Kardashians or Duck Dynasty, I don't even get the channels that carry their shows, but I have heard of them.

As full of shit as he was on Savage.


Savage is worse because he crossed over more, but he knows both

I honestly thought the Ultimate Warrior was the little Hispanic dude that always wore a mask. Who am I thinking of?

He is full of it. Anyone in his age window knows that Wrestlemania started that era and the fridge and Covert were in the first one? Also, Hulk and Savage more popular but you knew the UW by accident as pointed out. He would say he did not know Andre the Giant just to be a pud.

And furthermore, I could swear I remember him making jokes in the past about all the Von Erichs being dead. He is just a troll.

That sounds familiar. I've watched like two hours of pro wrestling in my life. Even as a kid I never got into it. I think I was the only boy at my jr high who didn't watch it.

seemed Pro Wrestling crossed into the mainstream in the mid-80s with Hulk Hogan having a top-40 song, wrestlemania etc.

after a couple of years that interest faded. I knew the name Ultimate Warrior, but couldn't pick his action figure out of a lineup.

That about sums it up for me. No time for me to keep up with that stuff after 88?

I have to say that is a tough play to make without getting called for a foul. Regardless of whether you fouled or not.

Mason Plumlee's jersey says "Plums" on the back?

Do any other players have a nickname on their jersey instead of their real name? I remember Akeem Olajuwon having "Dream" on the back of his in college.

I think every player in that game had a nickname on their jersey.
