NBA Warriors and Pacers Fight


Indiana center Roy Hibbert was ejected and four other players received technical fouls after a skirmish between the Pacers and Golden State Warriors spilled into the seats behind the baseline.The Warriors‘ David Lee, Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson also were called for technicals, along with Indiana forward David West.It's unclear whether Curry was trying to pull Hibbert away from Lee. Either way, Hibbert didn't like it and pushed Curry onto the hardwood. Players continued to shove each other as the fight moved into the baseline stands. Hibbert was ejected following the incident that didn’t really live up to the “brawl” term that was spread on Twitter and the blogosphere. It was an intense shoving match, but no real punches were thrown.

Jennifer Lopez Scares The 'Tight Pants' Off Jimmy Fallon Tonight Show


Jennifer Lopez flashed her incredibly toned abs in a cropped sweater as she took part in a Tights Pants skit on Monday with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show. The 44-year-old singing superstar joined 39-year-old Jimmy onstage as he started the skit that previously featured comedian Will Ferrell. J-Lo came out with her famous hips swiveling in a pair of painted-on white skinny jeans, a cropped green long-sleeve sweater, white shoes and wearing a bowl-cut wig.Lopez brought the same message and rocked the same hairstyle as Ferrell, but she paired her tight pants with a cropped turtleneck. Arguing that she should be the "only one" to sport the tightest pants in all the land, Lopez warned Fallon, "Don't make me take off my heels."It's hard to blame Fallon for wanting to wear his groovy tight trousers, but when Lopez joins "The Tonight Show" in Orlando next week to promote her new album A.K.A., it'll probably be best to just go with a relaxed fit.
