Weekly Sports GIF and Highlight Round-up – All-Star & Winter Olympic Edition

U-S-A! U-S-A!

The St. Louis Blues’ T.J. Oshie instantly became an American hero (at least according to his Wikipedia page for a brief spell) after he scored four times while leading the USA to a 3-2 win over rivals Russia.

Curling Fail

Forget the NFL for a minute. Maybe curling’s the sport with a bigger concussion issue on its hands. Put some pads and helmets on these guys!

Kate Hansen=WIN

If you happen to be in Sochi and you chance upon a woman dancing in public, that is not a mentally unstable person. That’s just champion luger Kate Hansen either warming up or just being awesome.

Johnny Weir=ALSO WIN

Nobody In Sochi Is Having More Fun Than Johnny Weir

Behold, the many styles and looks of Olympic figure skater and NBC broadcaster Johnny Weir during these Winter Olympics.

When Polar Bears Attack!

"Get The Fuck Away From Me, Nightmare Bear."

The Sochi polar bear mascot drew the fear of netizens back in his debut as an animated character, and if this clip is any indication he hasn’t become less frightening during his transition to live action.

Wall Climber

Despite the new format, the Slam Dunk Contest by and large still underwhelmed this year. However, John Wall came along to save the night with a memorable reverse jam over the Wizards mascot to take home top prize.

Wall Encore

Wall provided an encore performance in the All-Star Game itself, with a dunk reminiscent of his jam from the night before. Only without the Wizard of course.

Curry Drives it Home

Stephen Curry got into the act with some nifty ball skills, proving that he’s much more than just a shooter.

LeBron Mid-Air Switch

LeBron James was on hand to steal the show, yet again. First, he switches hands mid-air for a lefty alley-oop jam…

LeBron Goes Reverse

And later he gets a feed from All-Star MVP Kyrie Irving and effortlessly contorts his body for a reverse jam.

Don’t forget you can find all the NBA, college basketball, Olympics, and baseball odds at Top Bet, America’s best online sportsbook.
