J.J. Barea tries to fit between Hasheem Thabeet's legs, fails


During Friday night's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Minnesota Timberwolves point guard J.J. Barea attempted to get creative after not finding much space with a screen by teammate Greg Stiemsma. Barea improvised and tried to dribble with the ball between Thunder center Hasheem Thabeet's legs. With Barea listed at 6' and Thabeet standing at 7'3", it was a classic battle of guy versus tall guy. It ended rather sloppily, though. The originality of Barea is quite admirable, although the actual process was not graceful.

All's well that ends well, though. The T'wolves stunned the Thunder 101-93.
