The Grizzlies went into the All-Star Break as one of the hottest teams in the league, winning 10 of 12 games. But after a 10 day break, they were rusty to start things off against Portland.

Justin Bartha, also known as the guy from The Hangover films and the National Treasure films, was interviewed at halftime of the Knicks-Cavaliers barnburner. He may have enjoyed some substances before this encounter!

This came after Bartha berated his interviewer, Jill Martin, for asking him about Bradley Cooper all the time (she didn’t).
