This has been a weird year for the NBA Playoffs. Of course there are all the usual buzzer-beaters and great plays that come with playoff basketball, but there have also been an abundance of laughable blunders and cringeworthy moments. Guys have gone out there taking painful shots to the nuts and balls to the face in the name of sport.
With that being said, I guess it was only a matter of time before we got a playoff blooper reel set to the Jackass theme song. When you think about it, the playoffs basically have been one super long Jackass marathon.
See, just look for yourself:
It’s uncanny!
That highlight reel (shared by @SportsManias on Twitter) is pretty magical, too. Not only is it the perfect soundtrack for all the weirdness that has gone down across the league over the past few months, it’s also a wonderful, nostalgic reminder of the shenanigans that Johnny Knoxville & Co. used to get away with on television.
On one hand, I’m hoping that the playoffs remain just as weird for entertainment purposes. But on the other hand, I’m also really hoping that the rest of the games can stay poop and/or vomit free. It’s a slippery slope we’re heading down.
