Grizz: Grizz dancing like there’s no tomorrow. How can you not be thankful for this? With the old Benny the Bull now retired, there’s room for a new No. 1 mascot in the league and after a performance like this, I think Grizz can lock that up. Besides, who could be better? Certainly not creepy mascots like Pierre the Pelican or odd ones like Chuck the Condor. Grizz is the G.O.A.T and we should all be appreciative that we have him. 

NBA: JaVale McGee is getting actual playing time. As someone who grew up watching him on the Wizards, I’m glad to see him finally getting to contribute to an actual good NBA team. As a fan of hilarity, I’m glad he’s getting minutes so that he can provide us with a whole season’s worth of Shaqtin’ A Fool. With JaVale around there’s never a dull moment. Here we are, almost 6 weeks into the season and he’s already blessed us with gems like this. 

Him acting so foolish almost makes it bearable (Grizzly-able?) and possible to watch the Warriors play without getting extremely angry. Thank you JaVale, for everything.
