Welcome to the BAE Index

Andrew Wiggins going up, on a Wednesday

Andrew Wiggins is the good basketball man. Andrew Wiggins is also the good dunking man, as is evident by his monster slam on the Utah Jazz. Trey Lyles may be a rookie, but he did the right thing getting out of the way of the high flying Canadian.

Butler tips in the win

Much like Andrew Wiggins, Jimmy Butler is the good basketball man. He might be a bit better than Wiggins now, but that’s another story for another day. This play, though, is very impressive, especially with a defender draped all over him.

This is the most Kobe Bryant shot I’ve seen all season. Notice, he catches it right near the three-point line, and proceeds to subtly shuffle his way back a good foot or two beyond the three-point line to where he actually takes the shot. Vet move, Kobe. Vet move.

Elena Delle Donne’s awesome Christmas gift

I remember wanting a Nintendo 64 when I was growing up. I think that we all wanted one. So, to get one at the ripe young age of 26 like Elena Delle Donne did? That’s pretty awesome. Oh, and my favorite game? Mario Kart 64 all the way.
