The Chinese are famous for their use of unauthorized images of Western celebrities on billboards and other ads. This pic is of a small billboard in front of a sex shop. Notice the angry looking Dwyane Wade (also looks like Nick Van Exel)

Golden State Warriors point guard Baron Davis hung out with Chris Tucker and Dave Chappelle in LA yesterday afternoon. How tall is Chris Tucker? He looks just as tall as Davis who is 6′3. Tucker looks like he gained a little weight.

Shaquille O’Neal took the mic at a NYC club last night, unleashing a freestyle verbal assault directed at his arch-enemy Kobe Bryant — blaming his former teammate for ruining his marriage and imploring him to “Tell me how my ass tastes.”

After spending several verses shredding Kobe apart for losing in the NBA playoffs, Shaq drops the line, “I’m a horse, Kobe ratted me out, that’s why I’m getting divorced.”

The line most likely references a comment Kobe made during his infamous 2003 rape case, when he told Colorado police that he “Should have done what Shaq does … Shaq would pay his women not to say anything.” The two became famously bitter rivals after the incident.

I’ll be adding more NBA lookalikes now that the season is over. What else can I possibly post about? NBA trade rumors…Draft pick rumors? NAH. Look-a-likes are much more fun.

Kevin Garnett - DMX

OK - not an exact match but KG is very unique looking.

Ray Allen / Mos Def

Paul Pierce - Terrance Howard

Brian Scalabrine - Michael Rappaport

last but not least….

Sam Cassell - E.T.

Kobe came out firing in the first quarter — 11 points, 4-for-5 shooting, three triples in about 6 minutes — and just like that he cooled off in a big way. Actually, it was worse than a cooling off. It was more like the Ice Age. Kobe scored 11 points and shot 3-for-15 over the final three quarters. It all started crumbling with about 3:30 left in the first, someone must’ve conjured up Paul Revere’s because the troops were rallied.

Boston took over.

and It was truly a massacre.

Boston went on to win by a 39-point margin. Final score was 131-92.

He’s got better lyrics than souljah boy.

PAUL BROGAN - NBA FINALS RAP

Barack O’balla appeared on a special edition of Jimmy Kimmel Live which aired during prime viewing hours on Sunday Night. The segment ended with Kimmel jumping to give Obama a "fist pound" live via satellite.

Obama may have accidentally dodged the ‘dunking’ question. Now I’m wondering if he really can…

This video is from ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live, broadcast June 15, 2008.

One of the luckiest SOB’s on the face of the earth just got luckier.

An article from People.com claims:

Brazilian supermodel Adriana Lima received an engagement ring Thursday night – her birthday – from basketball star Marko Jaric, his rep tells PEOPLE.

“He asked and she said yes. They are both incredibly happy and couldn’t be more in love,” says publicist James Weir.
