Did you ever wonder how the Los Angeles Lakers find a dozen or so spectacularly hot girls who like to dance around on a basketball court in revealing outfits? Thanks to this comprehensive photo gallery of the Laker Girl tryouts, yo uneed wonder no more. Never have so many sports bras done so much to make this world a better place. (latimes.com)

If you're trying to get laid on Craigslist,...

If you're trying to get laid on Craigslist, here's a tip: Tell the women you meet that you're former NBA veteran Jeff Turner. Apparently, ladies love journeyman power forwards with a career six-points-per-game average, yet even the most die-hard female hoops junkie probably won't realize that you're lying. It's the (almost) perfect crime! (seattlepi.nwsource.com via bostonist.com)

Cheerleaders Gone Not Quite Wild Enough

Of course, these "controversial" "leaked" photos of the Sacramento Kings cheerleaders enjoying a little bit of girls-night-out down time would have been a lot more interesting had we jumped on the story when it broke last weekend — though maybe if they were, like, more interesting they wouldn't have slipped though our crack (ahem) in the first place?

NBA All-Star Dance Team

Dashiell Bennett — Tue, 16 Jan 2007 11:50:21 EST

The NBA All-Star Game will be held in Las Vegas next month (provided the city is still standing), but the best reason to attend will be the league's new All-Star Dance Team. One member from each of the NBA's 30 dance squads will be chosen—by You, the fan, of course—to form a Voltron-like superteam of spandexed hotness to perform at the festivities. Of course, in order to vote fairly you have to get to know the girls first, so NBA.com has provided videos and photo galleries for the top three women from each city to help you make an informed decision. If you like bouncing, shaking, thrusting, gyrating cheerleaders as much as we do, it's a responsibility you'll want to take very seriously—and you might also request that they send along a couple of extra dunking gals from Houston, just to be safe.

Dunking NBA Cheerleader Gallery

Dashiell Bennett — Thu, 30 Nov 2006 13:18:50 EST

We haven't watched an NBA game since the first time Michael Jordan retired (or was it the second?), but that's only because we've forgotten about the simple pleasures of a good halftime show. In fact, after being reminded of the other entertainments the league has available, we're ready to move to Houston and throw our allegiance behind the Rockets—and their cheerleaders, to be more precise. These high-flying gals sure know how to pump up a crowd. Just look at the intensity on their faces as they slam those balls into the hole (er, hoop)! If looking at these photos doesn't fire you up to hit the hardwood, you just don't know how to appreciate sports. Surely there's a niche porn site here somewhere waiting to happen?
