I love basketball, but to be honest, I haven’t been able to watch as much as I used to.  Therefore, when the playoffs come around, and I do watch some games, I’m always shocked by stuff I see.

Usually its just small stuff like, “Wow, Shane Larkin is playing for the Celtics.  I wonder if he would be good at baseball if he switched over Tebow-style? I wonder if he could play for the Reds like his old man?”

The answers, of course, are: No, he would not be good, and Yes, he could absolutely play for the shitty Reds.

This year though, as I was watching the Warriors/Spurs, I was much more intrigued by hairstyles.  Last night’s game two was a lot of fun, and even though I’ve always been aware of JaVale McGee, I never really saw him play so well.  As interesting as that was though, this is what I came away with:

Is that a 1980’s rat tail?  I am not one to judge, I will not say this doo is Shaqtin foolish or anything like else disparaging. That said, I’m quite concerned.  This is one of the worst hair decisions as a whole we’ve ever had.  Here’s mine circa 1985:

Is it better if you braid it?  Am I just wrong and caught his hair at a bad time of what fell out of the headband?  I’m just not sure what he’s up to.  Now I will say, if he is going full rat tail, I hope he owns it like this cat.

JaVale isn’t the only player I noticed last night.

I’m a Patty Mills fan, ever since the Saint Mary’s days.  I need to know what his plan is here though.  Is this an Australian mullet?  It clearly fits the ‘business in front, party in back’ definition.

I feel like it needs an old Foster’s commercial treatment.

 

I can’t wait to see what the rest of the playoffs bring me!
