Barkley Don't Know
Tim Duncan and the Spurs breezed past the Thunder to take a 1-o series lead in the Western Conference Finals.

Mattingly was a guest on Jimmy Fallon and reunited with his old, whiskered friend. On the opposite end of the spectrum is Giants hurler Tim Lincecum, who finally shaved the caterpillar mustache growing on his face.
