ALSO NOT HOW YOU BASKETBALL. Isaiah Thomas tackled his own teammate on a pick & roll during the Celtics-Bucks game.

THIS JUST IN. LeBron James is a freak and can still dunk on people.

CROPS MATTER. No, not the agricultural kind. The photo-framing kind. As proven by Kevin Love's chocolate milk bottle which was cropped to look like male genitalia.

FINDING DORY. Be prepared, some of you are going to watch this movie roughly a thousand times with your kids someday.
