It’s been awhile since NBA Twitter has played a #HashtagGame, so we decided to get the ball rolling on Wednesday with #NBAMovies.

#DubNation got in on the action too, tweeting us their #NBAMovies ideas.

Since this morning, more than 10,000 #NBAMovies tweets have been sent so it was no surprise to see the latest #HashtagGame as one of the top trending topics in the nation.

More than half of the league’s official team Twitter accounts joined in on the fun. Here’s the best – and the worst – of #NBAMovies.

Any Warriors themed #NBAMovies we left out, #DubNation? Let us know in the comments below or tweet us (@warriors) using the hashtag #NBAMovies.

After flooding timelines everywhere with #NBAMusicians and #NBASitcoms tweets last week, NBA Twitter decided to cause a little hashtag mayhem once again - this time with #NBASuperheroes. Why? Some teams just want to watch the world burn.

Get ready for some more NBA puns and awesome (or awesomely bad) Photoshops.

UPDATE: After the "success" of #NBAMusicians, another #HashtagGame broke out amongst the league. Enjoy.

What happens when you mix the offseason, NBA Twitter, and a bunch of puns? You get #NBAMusicians.

It all started on the evening of Tuesday, July 22 with a silly Jamiroquai pun. A few hours and hundreds of tweets later, it’s a national trending topic. More than 14,000 #NBAMusicians tweets have been sent over the past 16 hours.

And you know we couldn’t resist getting in on the action:

#DubNation, the creative geniuses that they are, joined in and gave us a few gems.

But perhaps the best part of the evening was seeing our friends from NBA Twitter embrace the puns.

And just when you thought the madness was over, the Suns dropped #NBASitcoms on us.

30 minutes later, #NBASitcoms was a trending topic in the United States. Over 10,000 #NBASitcoms tweets have been sent since the tweets first began Thursday (July 24) morning.

This only inspired more NBA teams to join in on the fun.

And thanks to the Wizards, we now know what's in store for the next NBA #HashtagGame.

Did we miss any, #DubNation? Let us know in the comments below or tweet us (@warriors) using the #NBAMusicians or #NBASitcoms hashtags.

Social Recap: #NBAMusicians & #NBASitcoms

On Saturday, July 19, newly signed guard Shaun Livingston decided to answer a few questions on Twitter. He spent nearly 6 hours responding to tweets, with questions ranging from his personal goals for the upcoming season, to his favorite video games, and everything in between.

Here are the Top 10 takeaways from Livingston's Twitter Q&amp;A:

1. He's very excited to play in front of #DubNation

2. In fact, Livingston even said that the fans at Oracle Arena make for the toughest crowd to play against. Guess that problem is solved.

3. Livingston is quite fond of his new coaches and teammates.

4. Like 98% of the world's population, Livingston is a fan of the Warriors' own Stephen Curry.

5. As far as goals for the season, Livingston wants to continue to improve his game while helping his teammates improve theirs.

6. Livingston's favorite show? Law & Order: SVU.

8. Livingston and Andre Iguodala have known each other for about 20 years, so it goes without saying that Iguodala was ecstatic when his childhood friend signed with the Warriors.

9. The afro is NOT making a comeback any time soon.

10. Unfortunately for us, Livingston is not #TeamFollowBack.

Make sure you're following Shaun Livingston on Twitter (@ShaunLivingston) and Instagram (@sdot1414). You never know when he'll hold another Twitter Q&amp;A sesh.
