The 10-man rotation, starring Hamed Haddadi's tiny car
A look around the league and the web that covers it. It's also important to note that the rotation order and starting nods aren't always listed in order of importance. That's for you, dear reader, to figure out.
C: Hooped Up. If you don't follow Grizzlies center Hamed Haddadi(notes) on Twitter, you're missing out.
PF: CelticsHub. The Lakers starters have played more minutes than the C's starters in one fewer game.
SF: OS. Third Quarter Collapse has been nominated for the best sports blog in Orlando, so, vote already.
SG: NQTC. Norm thought you might like this picture of Kirk Hinrich(notes) with blood pouring out of his chin.
PG: Silver Screen and Roll. Andrew Bynum(notes) is wisely avoiding playing against the Grizzlies.
6th: The Blowtorch. And the winner of today's Internet is ... Trey and his Millard Fillmore throat tattoo.
7th: Bullets Forever. Five possible ways to get Caron Butler's(notes) game going. (Note: We see you, Caron!)
8th: KnickerBlogger. An open letter to LeBron James(notes) ...
9th: Sactown Royalty. Hilarious fake headline: "Kings officially NBA's most screwed franchise."
10th: Basketball-Reference.com Blog. New NBA MVP Award Tracker, anyone?

Big a 7-2 guy in that car is amusing! He gets cramped up and thats why his coach only lets him play 4 minutes a game...

#1 The ball goes out of the camera angle shot as soon as it hits the wall. And conveniently goes back back into view about 3-4 feet before it goes in. The first thing the camera man would have did was make sure that he did not lose track of the ball if it were real.
#2 Of the 4 feet that we do see of the ball going into the net, Look at how the ball is rotating smoothly. It's the kind of rotation you see at the free throw line. This is not the rotation of a ball being bounced off the wall.
The one point that I will put in it's favor is the angle of the shot matches from the bounce off the wall that we see to the point where it goes in. The connect points look almost identical.
What I want to know is if Jim Carey really kicked that 45 yard field goal in that crazy outfit.
