Simmons Plays Roundball Rock

[kenrickeason]

Two words goose bumps, made me smile thanking about back in the day when me and mama was watching the nba on nbc just damn near cried, damn plus this is a hard song to copy from too but they pulled it off.

[pancon5]

Rock 'n' roll

[corpowal]

The dude on the trombone looks like Craig from Malcolm in the Middle

[noesteem219]

@corpowal reading these comments make me love this video more and more

[tigerfan56]

simmons

[Wapphle]

ADANDE!!! oh wait....

[skullsnaps]

LOL. You think when these musicians were young, practicing for hours everyday, they dreamed that one day they would get good enough that they could perform the theme song to The NBA on NBC live?

[truhbaby]

I want Bill Simmons' head to be sportsgifted onto my body, just sayin...

[sherly85]

simmons

[dnice120186]

now 6 guys got owned by Simmons

[jbutler8]

Love the "arm flair face" lol

[Juiceboxjerry]

What software do you use to something like this? Put a picture of someone's face over video like that?

[michaeljamesmccabe]

Hilarious!

[soonerfan61]

AND is that GE Smith on guitar? I was JUST thinking about the Hall & Oates song Method of Modern Love right before I viewed this!

[CanadianGuy25]

@soonerfan61 Sure looks like GE Smith to me, but I think in the era in which this video was made, EVERY guitarist looked like GE Smith.

[soonerfan61]

Unbelievable that anyone actually considers this a legitimate song.

[dnice120186]

4 guys got dunked on by Bill Simmons

[thekearn77]

is that GE Smith on lead?

[rebharper]

@thekearn77 It's not. Every cheesy rock guitarist has that haircut. No disrespect to G.E.

[TheFitConnection]

It's a strange video - I don't know who is more embarassing - it seems that Tesh, the violinist, and the guitarist are in a heated competition to see who can look the most ridiculous...

[androus2001]

Creepy-serious look morphing to maniacal grin at 0:52 FTW

[monspubis2]

Someone needs to take the musicians down a peg.

[CKNY42]

its all i dreamed it would be lol

[neekarogwa]

The 3 people who disliked this are the band members who got their faces edited over in this video.

[AlainP31]

0:47 ^_^

[kbyrne89]

Has anyone ever seen the sports gal?

[Cheeko1111]

This song makes me miss MJ

[SteveBallmer]

Great violin solo by Pau Gasol.

[facelevel]

@SteveBallmer and great guitar work by Bill Belichick!

[dmbwsu]

This needs more cowbell

[cameronCO22]

Bill Simmons' super-imposed head aside, who would actually pay to see this musical abortion in concert?

[Perrisue]

Bill Simmons is even more talented than I ever could have imagined...God bless him!

[brega1000]

Why didnt he put the Sports Gal on the head of one of the VIolinists? :-)

[mrni748]

This is one of the greatest things in the history of ever. I could watch it thousands of times.

[mrni748]

This is one of the greatest things in the history of ever.

[zappa73]

f'ing love Simmons!

[darkrosewebmaster]

Bill Simmons is the biggest celebrity nobody can recognize on the street!

[walsh1916]

@darkrosewebmaster. Id recognize him. he wears #72 for the 76ers

[vid47]

Is that G.E. Smith on guitar (formerly of "G.E. Smith and the Saturday Night Live band!")?

[ReservoirTip]

Two ESPN guys in this video, including Tom Friend on guitar

[chiak0]

SIMMONS!!!!

[essquared24]

YES YES!!!

[chedda2261]

like if you came directly from the trade value column

[quaquequa]

SIMMONS!

[sully6172]

When did Alan Thicke put on a BeeGees wig and learn lead guitar?

[444nutman]

I think the movie Crossroads with Ralph Macchio got it all wrong. Macchio should have been a fiddle player and challenged Steve Vai who would be playing guitar for his soul.

[Lancer723]

Yup, these are your readers.

[marc44118]

Simmons!!!

[ds102]

SIMMONS!!!!

[flagatorsrock8]

SIMMONS

[dalakeshow]

[prmathies]

Simmons!! DK mode!

[rexchapman1]

is the guitarist g.e.smith of 'g.e. smith and the saturday night live band'

simmons, you are one powerful dork.

[sancholian]

Did simmon's head just get bigger?!?!?! His talents certainly just doubled in size, maybe his celtics can muster up that much talent to beat the thirsty spurs in the finals!! (their recet win at home don't mean s h it to the best record in the league!!)

[efusq]

Creepy as hell

[aloink82]

this would be a lot better if everyone in the video had a simmons head.

[LetsDoIt4Johnny1]

Simmons

[wiczy]

amazing, love the blinks

[jeanomics]

Why did I watch this whole thing?...

Simmons!

[hippoman87]

simmons!

[Chrenen]

Video aside I'm still a little concerned that his pee was orange.

[pubicenemy1]

For The Simmons!!!

[gabefergy]

LOL, that is hilarious. Someone needs to make Simmons Bobbleheads, I would buy one for all my friends.

[neilganderson]

Simmons!!!

[Xyathir]

[chevyjr26]

SIMMONS!

[SirFritzalot]

SIMMONS!!!!

[enangq]

simmons!

[xludachrisx]

[cas378]

HOLY S***! Willem "Jesus" Dafoe was tempted off the cross to play guitar with JT!

[PatrickMcMahonWich]

[buccaneers445]

simmons!

[jcrhea001]

[thefossor]

DJ GALLO

[bostonchipster]

A Spec-TACular move...by Bill Simmons!

[LegguhVids]

this was the best part of my day

[yanksrul3]

SIMMONS > everything

[KillYourself420]

simmons.

[bradely00]

I think the unattributed cameo by William H Macy on the guitar solo solidifies this as a classic for the ages.

[bricks23]

Simmons.

[Jkight]

epic

[doctender77]

Haha!!!!!! This video = winning at life

[nerdery86]

SIMMONS!

[espeecuz]

of course it's simmons, guys. stop saying it you think john tesh is linking to this video?

[espeecuz]

@espeecuz punctuation fail.

[epsilonisevil1988]

Simmons!!

[dtownsooner]

SIMMONS!!!

[BluemanStSwing]

SIMMONS!

[raremusicman]

This video needs MORE BIG HEADS.  How about Wade and Lebron doing the dueling violin/guitar solos? And Cousin Sal should be the drummer.

[KillUAll5000]

Simmons FTW!!

[pussd]

Fanfuckingtastic! Simmons looks like Michael Douglas at 0:20. For my money, the best part is at about 0:53 when he goes from serious to "YEAH!"

[lshocket]

Captain morgan? The violin player is clearly the guy from the free credit report dot com commercials.

[jbprojects3]

Isn't that William Macy on guitar? Man, Simmons, you DO have pull in Hollywood.

[slavin21]

Ok this is unbelievable.

[benbenbenben32]

simmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmoooooooooooo­nnnnnnnnnnnsssss...head

[TheFerrariBoys]

Bill you ASKED for this to be done?!? Wow how much more arrogant are you going to get - watch out you're in Jim Rome territory. Its ALL ABOUT YOU BABY. Next time you bash an athlete for too much vanity please take a look in the mirror and go back to GOOD REPORTING.

[freddiegibbs101]

@TheFerrariBoys he's not a reporter. He's a columnist.

[CannonVeale]

Simmons looks like Steve Maracucci's illegitmate son in this video

[carefulone100]

Simmons Simmons

[HilariousG89]

FANTASTIC!! SUPERDUPER

[DarrenMalenko]

Simmons!!

[TFo1104]

That was fantasitc!

[Nocrumble]

Love the pelvic keyboard thrust BS

[Vandrudt]

SIMMONS.....

[davidgroesbeck]

Like.

[jonramz]

you know none of those people in the audience had ever been to a NBA game

[tonydraxler]

lol epic

[amanxor211]

Simmons. nuff said.

[MTryder1]

0:51. Yes

[k09tk01]

simmons....

[simbaniffer54]

SIMMONS!!!

[trav45g]

This is fantastic! Should have gotten House and Jacoby to be the dueling violin/guitar players.

[PapaBurgundy007]

Too F'n funny...

[d01110111]

Simmons?

[moubry1]

About to Blow. James Moubry is the man!

[mossontherandy]

SIMMONS!!!!

[matt05behs]

simmons

[CrazyLikeTheFox]

my favorite part has to be the captain morgan violin duet with the coked out guitar player

[ricktheguy1474]

@CrazyLikeTheFox Captain Violin player goes mano y mano with Cokehead McGuitarist.... NEXT ON THE NBA ON NBC!!!!

[algiardello]

@CrazyLikeTheFox

That's not just any coked-out guitar player. Isn't that the old SNL bandleader, G.E. Smith?

[easmith11]

It troubles me how his complexion changes, from very tan to very white.

[otakueric]

NBA Jam, BIG HEAD MODE!!!!

[JohnMcD19]

Going with a Cap'n Crunch motif for wardrobe might not have been the best idea.

[bortoldr]

Looks like FAT Matthew Perry

[parsifal1226]

excellent work

[jessep389]

my god simmons, you are larger than life

[IMTheKing817]

Simmons peaked right now.  It's all downhill from here.

[CrimsonSanX]

@IMTheKing817 Nah, this ain't no jumpin the shark moment. Though I agree one may be coming up closeby.

[kenjinnyc]

all i can say is yes.

[fu11erthanempty]

LOVE the transition at :52 seconds in. I was just watching this video the other day, when will this song find it's home with the NBA again??

[nemishh]

that was awesome

[brutus6000]

That was great!

[Major9999]

The Faces are awesome!

[rqafis]

That just made my day. Simmons!

[woomikee]

This is simultaneously horrifying and fascinating. I can't stop watching

[jjohnsonjr81]

My favorite is the violinist with the Navy Admiral jacket. 

[oldebekn]

The changing facial expressions are definately the best part, that and the creepy blinking....

[neekarogwa]

The guy who made this chose SUCH good faces for Simmons to make during the performance. Perfect editing.

[MrJaymzB]

Simmons!

[keandaas]

KAHNNNNNNNN!!!!!!

[joerilla12345]

Straight from the column to this video! SIMMMMMMONS

[teambringit01]

That was good...KAAAAAAANNNHNNN

[dimtyri]

thumbs up for simmons and memories

[bhacken71]

Simmons! 

[titansmaniac5]

Jabbal Abdul-Simmons approves.

[TBlake34]

First, this is FANtastic.

Second, we need heads for the guitar-violin duo.  Bird-Magic? Freeman-Griffin? There's an opportunity being missed.

[michaelholman1]

@TBlake34 -- I had the same thought.... has to be Marc Stein and Ric Bucher, right? 

[TBlake34]

@michaelholman1

There you have it. That's the best duo. Nicely done.

[brutus6000]

@TBlake34  Thirded.

[TSettles724]

World's scariest-looking blackjack dealer.

[austinblnknshp]

Simmons.

[jdahh]

JAAAAASH FREEMAN



[bodenga]

[aholmes010]

Jabaal!!!!

[olmanfeelyus]

I refused to believe that this video could get any better, but somehow with Simmons head it has. Well done, sir!

[DukeAJ24]

JAAAAASH FREEEEEMAN APPROVES

[TimSPC]

Needs more Jaaaaash Freeman!

[cotchery]

0:51 hahahahahaha

[knockerboland]

Simmons!!!!!!!!!

[evldave]

Is it me or is Simmons just a little too excited to be a floating discombobulated head attached to John Tesh's body??

[Shinmaru007]

Simmons!

[rksmith521]

Finkes!

[unmachineable]

SIMMONS!!!!

[Dynamo6969]
