A wax statue could probably play better defense than the real guy.

Okay, that was pretty funny.

My favorite Madame Tussauds wax person, Kylie Minogue:

I was skeptical, but that was pretty hilarious.

♫Melo, ...♫

It's almost as if he's had practice at standing perfectly still with the ball in his hands, while people scream all around him.

I wanted to hate that, but the second one was really funny for some reason.

It was funnier when Troy Polamalu did it.

/Not a Steelers fan

Waiting for "Carmelo Anthony makes a surprise appearance in the second round of the playoffs" headline.

Cybernetic: It was funnier when Troy Polamalu did it.

Haven't watched the Melo vid yet, but that was seriously funny, and another reason for me to like the guy. Thanks for that.

Oh yeah, that's soooo original.

Funny to see the size of an NBA star in context of 'normal' people.

Or Danny Woodhead selling his own jersey Link

Polamalu had better reactions. Melo just kinda did the same "Ooh!" move without really drawing people in first.

Yeah, he should have waited till people stood there for a bit longer but pretty funny.

Grables'Daughter: Okay, that was pretty funny.

I went in Vegas... Really, really cool. Hands were the biggest giveaway, but stare those things in the eyes, and it gets real creepy, real fast. It was kinda cool that you could touch the models, too. They had a few that were interactive, one was Beyonce, if you grabbed her "assets", it would make her blush. Funny thing was, the sensor wasn't placed for a casual hand-on-the-ass experience, I had to reach W-A-Y up into the 'taint area... Hell, I was almost blushing more than the wax statue at that point... ;-)

Notice the asian chick at the end instinctively grabbing her purse upon noticing that the giant black dude in front of her is real

Agreed.

Is there some reason a robot made of wax can't take a nap standing up in the middle of a bunch of wax robots? Or does that confuse you?

someone get a draft thread up!

logggur: someone get a draft thread up!

This is a thread about the Knicks standing still and doing nothing, so technically it's always been a draft thread.

If this is the draft thread, I would just like to say that Andy Katz tried to say bulging disc but instead said bulging dicks.

heh bulging dicks. i really hope sullinger doesn't go to the celtics just in case he overcomes his injury. they don't need a present like that after garnett and allen.

VvonderJesus: If this is the draft thread, I would just like to say that Andy Katz tried to say bulging disc but instead said bulging dicks.

I hate that I know this. But every time someone has a bulging disc, someone says dicks.

someone said dicks?

who the hell is Dion Waiters?

Chris Broussard needs to step his game up, he's reminding me of LeBron is last years finals.

oh my god cleveleand you can't do anything right.

Stop interviewing that little girl, ffs. fark off ESPN.

why does stern have trouble with the year every time?

logggur: why does stern have trouble with the year every time?

The keep him in carbonite until it's time to either host the draft, crush rebellion, and veto trades.

An intern is responsible for scrawling the date on his hand.

As a Rockets fan I cried a little.

Zombie Hitler: Stop interviewing that little girl, ffs. fark off ESPN.

I thought of the same thing. They got their crying moment from Robinson, no need to interview a 9 year old girl. And trying to ask follow up questions and expecting legit answers was ridiculous.

They wanted footage of the girl crying they could show over and over again. Scum.

Maybe I'm just a huge dope for sitting around and watching this thing, but the coverage by ESPN has been atrocious. Terrible interviews and a lot of incomplete analysis.

That stache looks like he's drooling soup.

coolio mack: Maybe I'm just a huge dope for sitting around and watching this thing, but the coverage by ESPN has been atrocious. Terrible interviews and a lot of incomplete analysis.

This is what ESPN is always like. Wish TNT did this.

The interviews are bad, in part, because a lot of these kids haven't had experience talking with the media.

Pretty sure that's the first white kid picked.

i keep forgetting this dude is white. kind of like spencer hawes.

Zombie Hitler: Wish TNT did this.

They used to, I don't know what happened. ESPN should only get regular season basketball because TNT mops the floor with them. I miss the days of NBC and TNT handling the league. I'm sure NBC would rather have the NBA back over the NHL.

Also not knowing much about the college game makes the draft hard for me to care about. Perhaps I should get into college hoops but Texas sucks at it.

As a Knicks fan, I don't even know why I'm watching this damn thing.

yeah texas never produced one of the best players in the NBA right now or anything...

That's a good point, but they really just need to get rid of the interviews altogether. All they're doing is asking the kids "how do you think you will do on the next level" or "how do you respond to this draft criticism". It adds nothing to the program, and of course the kids are going to give their coached up agent/parent response.

The NBA draft should theoretically be the best to cover and the best for the fans to watch, because the top level guys can make a huge impact right away. Keep Van Gundy and get rid of the rest of these guys.

logggur: yeah texas never produced one of the best players in the NBA right now or anything...

Who cares? They didn't even make the Final 4 that year, and that team was loaded with talent.

ESPN replaced Heather Cox with Lisa Ann?

God, ESPN is so bad at this.

If Jeff Van Gundy went to TNT, there would be no reason to watch ESPN for basketball.

TheJoe03: logggur: yeah texas never produced one of the best players in the NBA right now or anything...

and it sure wasn't one of the most loaded NCAA tournaments in recent memory and that texas team didn't win a bunch of very memorable close games etc...
