Not the TV show The OC, but The OC that I live in, Orange County, CA (OC Register):David Kalb was more anxious than nervous Wednesday. After nearly twohours of waiting and shooting baskets on Venice Beach’s famed bluecourt, he wanted to see the competition. “I was interested to see how big he was,” Kalb said. Kalb’sopponent eventually emerged from a black Excursion, all 6 feet, 8inches and 250 pounds, wearing the latest in his signature shoe lineand a skin-tight sleeveless basketball shirt that showcased hismuscular arms. “He’s a big dude,” Kalb said. The dudewas Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James, who showed up to play Kalb,a warehouse manager from La Habra, in the Cub Cadet Trick ShotChallenge.And the video is after the jump.LINK

Simply Amazing. Somebody put this guy in a Nike commercial.
