I just can’t get over the wobbling of his legs on Damn it, Astros. It reminds me of a botched vault on Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games.

The astros gif is the closest thing in form to rollerbladin' raptor that we've had

the awkward fall, the airtime, the rollover at the end…

LAKERSBRO.

Received 599 votes in Round 1, and 822 votes in Round 2.

The most underappreciated fact about Lakersbro

Is that they are wearing the same exact shirt, which they clearly just bought before the game.

That, and the fact that this gif is now a window into the glorious days of two months ago when Laker fans were still full of hope.

- Valued Internet subscriber Gudgel

This is my pick for GIF Tournament III champion.

- SB Nation’s own Matt Ufford

I vote for LakersBro because it gives Matt LeBlanc extra screen time
