On Monday night, Kobe Bryant broke out a nifty little one-leged fadeaway jumper, reminiscent of the one that Dirk Nowitzki is known for. Thankfully, we had Reggie Miller on our side, as he called out the Mamba out for stealing a page out of the Nowitzki playbook.

The Daily Show had one of their best bits in awhile when they explored the racial implications of Jeremy Lin’s meteoric rise to Knicks starting point guard and Most Important Person Ever (a distinction that formerly belonged to Tim Tebow). Last night, they took a closer look at the TV implications of Lin’s ascent, and, thankfully, it looks like “Lindecision 2012″ is going to become a running thing.

Over the last few days, Ed Weiland has achieved a level of recognition unusual for a FedEx deliveryman. That’s because in addition to his FedEx job, Weiland contributes to the site hoopsanalyst.com, and a couple years back, wrote this. Recently, CNN spoke to the man who saw Jeremy Lin coming.
