William Shatner Blasts Critics, Defends Absence From Leonard Nimoy’s Funeral
William Shatner defended his decision to skip Leonard Nimoy‘s funeral on Twitter Sunday, after it became a front-page headline in a New York tabloid. The New York Daily News anointed him “Captain Jerk” on its front page Sunday for claiming he could not “beam up” in time for the event. He was best known for his portrayal of “Star Trek’s” logic-driven, half-human science officer Spock, an ally and foil to Shatner’s earnest Captain Kirk. Shatner explained in a series of tweets Saturday that he was in Florida for a Red Cross Ball and could not make it to Los Angeles in time for Sunday’s service.

DeAndre Jordan practices free throws by trying to bank them in
DeAndre Jordan's free throw struggles have been a major talking point this season: He's shooting a dismal 41 percent from the line, but he's so good at everything else -- shooting 72 percent from the field, averaging 14.2 rebounds per game -- that he's too valuable to take off the court, even as teams resort to the Hack-A-Jordan. Doris Burke reported that coaches advised this, and that he's trying to "wake up his wrist." But free throw shooting is about learning how to consistently repeat the same motion over and over again, and it seems rather strange that it would be beneficial in any way to consistently repeat a slightly different motion.
