NBA: 25 Things Fans Should Do During the Lockout

HUMOR ---

The lockout is here upon and while the NBA is arguing with its players about who is the king of the playground, we the fans are left with nothing to do.

Or do we have something to do?

Can we possibly find a way to survive without the NBA? I say yes my friends, and here I will list the 25 things we can be doing while the league is not in session.

25. Watch NBA TV, Just to Feel How Empty It Is

Every single time you tune in, it is going to be the same thing; talking about how no progress is being made.

Oh, and of course highlights of the past and maybe, just maybe, a Miami Heat watch to see what the Big Two and a Half are doing.

24. Pretend There Is No Lockout

There is no lockout, never was!

Act completely normal and when the season comes just go to the games and imagine the action.

For away games, just sit in front of a turned off TV and picture the action. This also is a full proof way to make sure there is no let down, unless of course you are a Timberwolves fan.

23. Video Game Marathon

Play out the season your way!

Get your Cleveland Cavaliers that championship!

22. Follow "Other" Sports

Championship Dominoes is always available.

Maybe, even horseshoe tournaments.

21. Pursue an Acting Career

Have you ever dreamed of being on the silver screen!

Of course you have!

Now go out and grab the career of your dreams without having to worry about the distraction of ten millionaires playing ball!

20. Watch European Basketball

Then quickly switch channels because all the good players are out of their jobs.

19. Run Across the United States

If it worked for Forrest Gump, it could work for everyone.

Just watch your step.

18. Play Some Ping-Pong

Forrest Gump is the only man, other than maybe Christopher Walken, that can make ping-pong that awesome.

17. Go Camping

Beware of the scary monster that comes around every fourth full moon and...

Oh who am I kidding? I am terrible at those stories.

16. Go out and Prepare for the Season

One must ask where this person went wrong.

Did his girlfriend dump him? Did he have lead paint in his nursery?

Whatever the reason is for this, he needs to seek help.

15. Hockey?

On second thought, never mind.

No one should go through that much torture.

14. Learn Some Dance Moves

Just so you won't be this guy.

13. Go to a Playground for Your Chance to Play with a Star

This video was made during the time when Devin Harris was still relevant and looking like one of the brightest young stars in the league.

Those times have passed, but if you go to play at your local court you just might bump into LeBron, who will gladly steal your candy, tell you Santa Claus is not real, and ruin your dreams for you.

12. Find a Soulmate

You only get to live once according to many people so make it count.

11. Get into Shape

Have you been a couch potato your whole life?

Well get up and get active?

10. Get out of Shape

Many people who watch sports have actually played sports during their lives and might still have an occasional pick up game with their friends.

However, with the lockout being here you can't make a fadeaway jumper while yelling "Kobe!" so...just relax and grab some chips!

9. Catch Up on Actual News

Is this how you found out Barrack was president?

Was it just because you were watching a game and they mentioned this name and occupation?

Yeah, I see you there behind your laptop screen! Now go and do some research on the current world!

8. Learn a New Language

I couldn't really think of a picture so I decided to have someone here who is known for her great intelligence and probably knows a second language.

Hell, she lives so close to Russia she might as well be a citizen right?

7. Write a Book

Do you honestly have anything better to do?

6. Sit in a Corner and Wait

This is pretty much all I am doing!

5. Go Gardening

Look out at your garden...isn't it beautiful?

No it isn't! Weeds are not roses OK?

Now go out there, get on your knees and rip up those green pests and plant some beautiful lilies.

4. Do Some Volunteer Work

What's the last time you helped out in you community?

High School?

Yeah, I see that guilty look.

3. Travel the World

Enjoy yourself, after all the cable is now pointless so use the money to see the world!

2. Read

"Oh my god! Knowledge!"

Yes, there is knowledge inside those things, you would be amazed.

1. Find Your Old High School Buddies

Just follow the steps in the video.
