Filip Peraic is a Croatian artist and the man behind James Harden Illustrated, a site dedicated to "illustrating James Harden's bearded profile through various mediums & styles." Peraic posted his latest creation last night, a portrait of Harden made from human hair. "For this portrait, I had to enter the creep zone and ask [the] barber for some hair leftovers," he explained on Twitter. In case you were wondering what Harden looked like with a well-groomed beard, this gallery should give you an idea.

Yes, this is a thing. It is really messy and I don't know why people do it.

The Sixers rookie weighed in on last night's Bachelorette finale (with the help of US Magazine and some glue).

Lovely Lady of the Day

Ben in Brooklyn asked why I've never featured Elyse Taylor before and I really don't have a good answer. So I'm just going to name her today's LLOD and put this whole ugly incident behind me (click here for full-size version).

Chip Kelly vs. NFL Writer

In yesterday's MMQB, Eagles coach Chip Kelly discussed the hype surrounding the NFL Draft and how it puts a lot of unfair expectations of first-year players. These comments didn't sit well with CBS Sports' Pete Prisco, who went on Twitter and trashed Kelly for his comments. My favorite: "Don't like the hype? Go coach PE, [call] roll in gym class and coach high school football for a stipend. Geez."

LeBron James, Master Thespian

Cavs forward LeBron James (still feels weird typing that) was on the NYC set of the new Judd Apatow movie Trainwreck, in which he has a small role. The movie features Tilda Swinton, Marisa Tomei, Amy Schumer, Brie Larson and Daniel Radcliffe,along with a slew of other recognizable names (one of which is John Cena).

USA Basketball had its first day of training camp on Monday as it prepares for the World Championships and Derrick Rose finally looks like Derrick Rose again. The Bulls guard "threw down dunks, tossed in three-pointers and whipped no-look passes," according to SI's Ben Golliver, who attended the practice at UNLV. This news must make Joakim Noah happy as the center has had to carry the Bulls over the past two seasons with Rose injured and out of action. With James off to Cleveland, the Bulls will be the favorites to win the Eastern Conference next season, provided Rose stays healthy.

Seinfeld Without Jokes

The show isn't quite as good when it's all plot and no jokes. Here's the famous Junior Mint episode as an example.
