Sports are very serious. You should take them seriously. If you don’t and, say, participate in the water bottle challenge at the end of a blowout, sports men may express displeasure about you not taking the game seriously.
That fear did not stop the Boston Celtics from having fun at the end of their win against the Miami Heat. Jae Crowder and Avery Bradley wanted to shoot technical free throws but only one could win. How did they settle it? Did their coach use mathematics and choose the best free-throw shooter? Hell, no. They decided it via rock paper scissors, and Crowder won.
It was 102-93 at the time with 32 seconds remaining, so fun could be had. Crowder, an 87 percent free-throw shooter, missed. The Heat went on to score 10 straight points to win 103-102 and a lesson was learned — never joke around during sports, or you will pay for it with karma from sports gods.
Just kidding. Boston won 105-95. Fun is good.
