I always imagine Noah screaming, "IT'S MEEEEEE!" in his head when going up.

There are two kinds of folks on Earth: People who get goosebumps during the #Bulls intro and liars.

Jimmy Butler easily drives the lane for a two handed jam and this is the face Wizards front court made

by Ernest Wilkins 4/23/2014 1:57:43 AM
So that's why they call him Jimmy Buckets.
