The Absolute Worst Way To Handle Being Hacked

Courtesy of J.R. Smith, leading NBA goofball.






Earlier today NBA swingman and general nutjob J.R. Smith had trouble signing in to something with his Apple ID. He made sure he entered the right password, but it didn't work. How did he handle this? Did he hit "forget password"? Did he call Apple support? Nope. Did he do the exact, worst, wrong thing to do in the world if you might have been hacked?
















Yep.



Yep.


















Here's a series of metaphorical pictures. J.R. is himself. The basket is a metaphor for doing the right thing in a potential hacking situation.

Dirk Nowitzki Q&A: Mavericks All-Star committed to Dallas



SACRAMENTO, Calif. – It was less than two years ago that the Dallas Mavericks were first-time NBA champions. With the front office focusing on the future instead of a chance to repeat with an aging roster, the team made major changes.

According to star Dirk Nowitzki, the franchise actually considered trading him before deciding to get rid of nearly everyone else in hopes of landing a marquee free agent such as Dwight Howard, Deron Williams or Chris Paul.

The plan hasn't worked. Nowitzki, Shawn Marion and Rodrigue Beaubois are the only players remaining from the title team, and the struggling Mavericks, who failed to land a major free agent, could miss the playoffs. While Nowitzki is still holding out hope for an “unbelievable” free-agent splash this summer, he has pondered the possible success that was lost after the post-title changes.

Iverson wants last shot at NBA

Basketball with clock to represent a "cur...Image via Wikipedia
It doesn’t matter if it’s the Cleveland Cavaliers, Toronto Raptors, Minnesota Timberwolves – or any of the NBA’s other basement dwellers. Allen Iverson(notes) will take your call. If you’re an NBA team and you have a spot open on your roster, Iverson is willing to talk.

“I’ll play for anybody,” Iverson told Yahoo! Sports.

A 10-time All-Star and former MVP, Iverson still wants back in the league even though he’s 36 and played only in Turkey last season. He’s one of the game’s greatest scorers, but his history of off-the-court drama and issues with coaches tainted his career, even in his last few seasons in the NBA. He complained about his role with the Detroit Pistons and griped about coming off the bench with the Memphis Grizzlies. Iverson took a leave of absence after playing three games with the Grizzlies two seasons ago and was eventually waived. That led him to announce his retirement – but a couple weeks later he signed with the Philadelphia 76ers.
