Anderson Varejao: Balls of Steel!



Anyone paying any attention to the NBA's final days knows that the Cleveland Cavaliers absolutely waxed the Boston Celtics in Sunday's ABC headliner. No real story there besides the aforementioned waxing. However, one of the small scuffles resulting from the flummoxing of the lean means in green was rather...well, quixotic. Rising from a rebound dust-up, Ray Allen threw an elbow towards Anderson Varejao's crotchal region. You can check out Varejao's William Wallace impersonation below. (My favorite part of the clip is Van Gundy calling it out as "fake confrontation" and suggesting they just drop the cage on 'em.) The jury's out whether it's a baller move not to be floored by that low blow or, y'know, a non-baller move. Above, however, is a dead-pan, live wire video I found on YouTube parodying this interaction. It's not quite Celebrity Deathmatch, but trust me, no one gets out of this "epic" (one of the video's tags) animation unscathed.



Sorry about the M.I.A. Epochrypha. Bit of a cold here keeping me tangled up in blue. Look for a new 'Poc in the next day or two.
