Everybody knows by now that Dirk Nowitzki is special and funny in his own way. We even know that Tony Parker can be funny – well at least it is funny to me what he did here. Now we got the Euroleague MVP of the 5th game day, Arvydas Macijauskas doing this: [youtube siI0t748_xo] ?!?!

Euroleague LIVE: What to watch
I could be really funny now and tell you what you should have watched last night: Olympiacos killing Prokom Trefl by more then 40 points, Efes Pilsen stopping Rytas, the TEAM Siena winning against the INDIVIDUALS from Bologna and of course the scoring record from Panathinaikos.
