10 Funniest Moments of the 2018-19 NBA Season

Honorable Mentions:
Michael Beasley's Refusal to Adhere to Traditional Uniform Concepts:



Lance Stephenson Nearly Kills Mortiz Wagner Going Up for a Rebound Then Just Leaves Him on the Floor



Giannis Tries to End the MVP Debate



Brook Lopez Gets Hit with Flying Debris



Boogie Finds an Open Man... On the Bench

10.LeBron Shows off his GOAT Work Ethic 

LeBron can't even be bothered to try on inbound passes anymore. Smh.

9.Victor Oladipo Tries to Get the Ref Involved in the Offense

Finding an open man in an NBA game can be a struggle sometimes, so I applaud Oladipo for his outside-the-box thinking. Real shame that the ref wasn't ready for the pass. He probably could've gotten a nice look against this sorry-ass Knicks team. 

8.Eric Bledsoe Pays Tribute to his brother Drew 


I bet Joel Embiid wasn't expecting to get hit by a rocket on a night where he wasn't playing against Houston!!!!




(I'm so sorry)

7.The Bulls Prove Why They're an Offensive Juggernaut


Save some buckets for the other 29 teams guys!

6.Lance Stephenson Exhibits Effort When He Doesn't Need To 


It's going to be a very sad day for the NBA social media world when this living, breathing hardwood follie retires. Dude's career has essentially been an extended meme and I'll never not love him for it.

5.Kyle O'Quinn Donates to Charity 

This selfless gesture should be enough for O'Quinn to win NBA community service awards for the rest of his career.

4.P.J. Tucker Takes a Nap

Eric Gordon's reaction tells the whole story. NBA players-especially guys like Tucker who have been playing forever-just shouldn't be making inexplicably dumb decisions like this.

3.Kyle Kuzma Forces LeBron to Play Defense in a Regular Season Game 


Kuzma shows his appreciation to Tyrant LeBron for trying to get his ass shipped to the Pelicans at the trade deadline in a deal for Anthony Davis by making sure the King stayed with his man after he refused to rotate out to the 3-point line to stop Danilo Gallinari from taking a wide open shot. As beautiful and cathartic as this moment was for the 23-year old, he should still probably start scoping out some real estate in the New Orleans area.

2.Thomas Bryant: The Stop, Drop and Roll King 

Not even James Harden shows this level of commitment to a flop. Job well done Mr. Bryant.

1.Magic Johnson's Impromptu Resignation Press Conference

Magic lived up to his nickname late Tuesday night with this captivating, ill-advised and often incoherent circus that caught the entire NBA off guard. The Hall-of-Famer essentially stepped down from his front office gig with the Lakers because he didn't want to make the tough decisions that every GM in pro sports have to make and missed being able to send mundane positive tweets about players that weren't on his team's roster. The fact that he did all of this without informing owner Jeanie Buss of his resignation beforehand further adds to the immense comedy value this unforgettable move offered up.
