animated gifs

Within seconds of Glenn Robinson III's tip-slam on Wednesday night, @pnbloem (BlockM around these parts) recognized some serious gif potential:

I'm here to serve:

[For the rest of the Nebraska game in gifs, with a heavy emphasis on Mitch McGary and the NCAA's foremost attention-starved refs, hit THE JUMP.]

MGoUser wile_e8 pointed out in the comments of the Iowa gifs post that Nik Stauskas's dunk and rim hang bore a strong resemblance to Dave Chappelle's Prince. And lo, a gif was born:

Is it a coincidence that "Stauskas" kinda rhymes with "blouses"? I think not.

At that moment, Iowa's bench decided they'd seen enough. Fran turned to call them back, then thought better of it. Run, my children. Run while you can.

Well, last night certainly produced the most gif-able game of the season. Trey Burke crossovers alone were enough for a post—this one, in particular, just ain't right:

Hit 'escape' on your non-Chrome browser to stop animation.

I'm assuming #25's New Year's resolution involves never again being in the same zip code as Glenn Robinson III.

Since there are only three of these today I'm not going to bother with the screencap/lightbox thing—if you need to stop the animation for the sake of bandwith, hit 'escape'.

Pretty nice play by the team's second-best freshman/"weak spot".
