The Orange Roundie is charitable

If you were on the lookout for NBA stars this weekend, you could’ve done worse than LA.

Yes, the LA Stars Charity Game was going on, and a whole bunch of stars, plus Dahntay Jones came out to hoop it up. Tim Hammer of the LAist was there to witness it all, and it couldn’t have been more dangerous. Snoop Dogg sprained an ankle and everything.

It is fair, however, to say that every celebrity basketball game has the one guy who takes the game a little too seriously. On Sunday night, that guy was Flex Alexander.

Flex was calling for the ball with the traditional hand clap, which was then followed up with a conversation with the teammate who didn’t pass him the ball to let them know that he was open. Flex would eventually get the ball, and would lose it out of bounds on a fast break layup with not one person near him. This, of course, lead him to look at his hands and wonder how the ball slipped out of them and into the second row.

This is great to know, because when we’re famous we’ll fit right in. Minus the part where we can actually catch the ball before turning it over. Why waste the time, when you can go right to the TO?

Now, celebrities and pros playing basketball is exciting and all, but the best part is that the ever-enigmatic Orange Roundie made an appearance! Yep, they used him, and if you think he didn’t have ulterior motives in giving of his time for free, you’re dead wrong. Emphasis on dead.

From what we hear, the Roundie is angrier than ever, and it’s not gonna let up anytime soon. In fact, the closer we get to [date redacted], the more the anger flows.
