I try to keep this website nonpartisan, since I get traffic from all over the world. But, bottom line, I am Canadian and am proud of my fellow Canuck ballers. Like Andrew Wiggins, for instance. The 17-year-old Toronto native (currently playing for Huntington Prep in West Virginia) is the top ranked prospect in the class of 2014, an unheard of feat for a Canadian. So watch this highlight reel of young Wiggins's work as we all sing Oh Canada together:

To chuck, or not to chuck, that is the question. At least that is the ongoing debate among the pro- and con-Kobe Bryant groups (especially in the comments section of our All-NBA Teams article). The argument (at least for the anti-Kobe people) is that the Lakers would be a more successful team if Kobe shared the rock more often, especially with Andrew Bynum and Pau Gasol, two the best big men in the league. The noise has become louder this season, as Bryant bumped his shots per game up to 23, while his shooting percentage plummeted to 43% (in the playoffs thus far, he's shooting almost 27 times a night at the same 43% success rate). So the question is, is Kobe > Pau + Bynum?

Not surprisingly, given today's global age, news of Amar'e Stoudemire's unfortunate fire extinguisher mishap has reached the shores of Taiwan. And in the hands of Taiwanese animators, the latest Knicks debacle becomes hilarious, in a bizarre kind of way.
