Pierce Saves the Day

Paul Pierce made a series-saving block as the Nets squeezed past the Raptors in Game 7 on Sunday. Toronto coach Dwayne Casey found himself in gridlocked traffic on the way to the game so he pulled a U-turn and took the subway.Drake was sitting courtside when ESPN analyst Mike Tirico spotted him and decided to quote one of his raps. It was as awkward as it sounds. With their season over, the Raptors are already looking to next year and may make a run at Vince Carter. Meanwhile in San Antonio, the Spurs rolled to a Game 7 victory over Dallas. The highlight of the game was Manu Ginobli channeling The Undertaker while applying Chapstick and Gregg "Stonewall" Popovich ignoring his two best players when they left the court late in the fourth quarter. 

Future Gronk?

Alabama tight end Michael Nysewander partied like a rock star at Talladega this weekend, which reminded me of another tight end who isn't afraid to chug a beer every now and then. I'm talking about Rob Gronkowski,who spent his Cinco de Mayo weekend partying in Columbus, Ohio. Nysewander will have to work on his shorts game if he wants to become the next Gronk. Jorts don't cut it at the NFL level.

Speaking of Talladega

The world's first BBQ sauce wrestling match took place Friday as part of the Aaron's 499 fan experience.
