I know it’s only been one game so far, but James Harden and Marcus Smart might’ve just given us the most unintentionally hilarious play we’ll see all year.
Of course, there will be some that give it some go. The NBA season is a marathon — not a sprint. But just know this play is going to be waiting at the finish line by the year’s end. I promise you that.
James Harden hit Marcus Smart with an insane crossover at the top of the 3-point line. The result, somehow, was Marcus Smart laying on the baseline? Just…nah. Enough of me describing it. See for yourself.

Everything about this is perfect. The crossover. The immaculate flop. The shimmy. The BRICK. Oh my goodness, y’all. The brick. This is performance art at its finest.
The NBA season is long, to be sure. It’s a marathon, not a sprint. But at the same time? Man, this is going to be hard to top.
