The Absolute Worst Way To Handle Being Hacked

Courtesy of J.R. Smith, leading NBA goofball.






Earlier today NBA swingman and general nutjob J.R. Smith had trouble signing in to something with his Apple ID. He made sure he entered the right password, but it didn't work. How did he handle this? Did he hit "forget password"? Did he call Apple support? Nope. Did he do the exact, worst, wrong thing to do in the world if you might have been hacked?
















Yep.



Yep.


















Here's a series of metaphorical pictures. J.R. is himself. The basket is a metaphor for doing the right thing in a potential hacking situation.

Dirk Nowitzki Q&A: Mavericks All-Star committed to Dallas



SACRAMENTO, Calif. – It was less than two years ago that the Dallas Mavericks were first-time NBA champions. With the front office focusing on the future instead of a chance to repeat with an aging roster, the team made major changes.

According to star Dirk Nowitzki, the franchise actually considered trading him before deciding to get rid of nearly everyone else in hopes of landing a marquee free agent such as Dwight Howard, Deron Williams or Chris Paul.

The plan hasn't worked. Nowitzki, Shawn Marion and Rodrigue Beaubois are the only players remaining from the title team, and the struggling Mavericks, who failed to land a major free agent, could miss the playoffs. While Nowitzki is still holding out hope for an “unbelievable” free-agent splash this summer, he has pondered the possible success that was lost after the post-title changes.
