SALT LAKE CITY — Three more fun stories from the world of sports in today's From Left Field!
1. Defense via shoe throwing
I'm not sure Clippers coach Doc Rivers drew it up this way, but here was the play Wednesday night against the Raptors:
Step 1: Have Jamal Crawford lose his shoe.
Step 2: Have Blake Griffin throw the shoe at Chris Paul's defender, Cory Joseph
Step 3: ???
Step 4: Profit!
I don't think Griffin was actually trying to hit Joseph on purpose, but it's still a crazy bit of NBA action.
2. High fives causing injuries
Have you ever had a competition with your friends to see how hard you can high five each other? Word to the wise: don't.

Be careful out there.
