Bulls guard Ben Gordon scored 22 points in Game 4 against the Boston Celtics. Most impressive was the clutch 26-foot three-pointer at the end of the first overtime. That saved the Bulls from falling down 3-1 to the Boston Celtics in their best-of-seven series.
As incredible as that shot was, it is what the strapping, 6-4 muscular did afterward that is making news: Grabbed his crotch not once but several times. Oh and there was plenty to grab, too. The crotch grab was edited or deleted in replays and could soon disappear from YouTube.
Video of the clutch shot and crotch grab (from different angles!) ON THE FLIP SIDE.
And here is another. Not the best video but a better angle to appreciate Gordon's gesture.
The Chicago Sun-Times reports: "Gordon's celebratory gesture after drilling the tying three-pointer at the end of the first overtime likely will draw a fine from the league. 'If Mr. [David] Stern asks, it was my groin [bothering him],' Gordon joked."

Well, the announcer did say it was a "clutch" play! :D

I'd rather he would "moon" the other team or the audience or the TV cameras...anybody.
Well, boys will be boys...well into their sixties. Then they get religion and condemn homos...still be grabbin' their crutch though to see if the Viagra is working.

Rod, great find! You and your site are amazing. Always something different and exciting. That's why your blog is always the first one that I read in the morning. (mediatakeout is the second one...don’t hold that against me, it is a guilty pleasure that makes me laugh, ok.)
Anyway, thanks for this “stimulating” “info” and for all of the hard work that you put in to making our days just a little bit more enjoyable on a daily basis!

I saw the game Sunday. When he grab it, he held on to it for VERY long time. I was sure the correspondents were going to say something. He was really feeling himself! Him and Derrick are the two hot players of the team.

I didn't notice the gesture. I was upst over the outcome. U know I was pulling for Stephon Marbury and The Celts. I did notice Ben's tight body though.
