"jimmy kimmel live"! >> dicky: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight -- curtis "50 cent" jackson jenny slate the national spelling bee champs and music from one republic with cleto and the cletones and now, look at this, here's jimmy kimmel! ♪ "jimmy kimmel live" [ cheers and applause ] ♪ ♪ >> jimmy: hi, everyone! ♪

♪ welcome to the show. thank you for watching. thank you for joining me here on this night of basketball. earlier tonight here on abc the san antonio spurs hosted the miami heat in game one of the nba final series. and the ratings were so good they already announced plans for a game two. could be as early as sunday they're saying. most people seem to want the spurs to win. unle you live in miami rooting for the heat is like rooting for cobra over the karate kid. san antonio is heat hater central, there is a weatherman, sean stevens, since it has been very warm there, sean found a we to work a heat reference into almost every one of his weather reports this week. what you are about to see is just a taste of this. if we showed them all, we would have to bump "good morning america" tomorrow. so, take a look. >> a great time of year, the spurs in the finals kicking in.

july, the heat is kicking in. not the miami heat. the texas heat. traditional texas heat. the miami heat. show you which one will be hotter. hopefully the texas heat. the texas heat will be here in full force, hopefully not the miami heat, full force. the good heat this week, texas heat. not necessarily the miami heat. >> speaking of heat. that's what it is like outside right now. >> i will be battling this week. most of us, just the texas heat that we will be dealing with. >> cupcakes in a minute. first we'll talk about the heat, not the miami heat, the heat-heat. >> the heat, stick around. miami heat is going to be here. >> i think he nailed it the eighth time. i think that was the one. that's known as meta-forcing it down your throat. donald sterling seems to have come to grips with selling the clippers even if he doesn't want to. yesterday he dropped his billion dollar lawsuit against the nba and approved the $2 billion sale of the team. let that be a lesson, that's the

united states of america, if we catch you being racist, we will not stop until you are $2 billion richer than you were. really. you got that? [ cheers and applause ] sterling's lawyer said his real concern is his reputation. he said, i quote, donald sterling doesn't want to have to die and have his tombstone here lies a mental inskcompetent and racist. here's the thing, die first. we'll sort the tombstone thing out later. we don't have to settle on that now. a big week for the residents of the staple center. stanley cup finals under way. great game. kings came back from two games down to beat the rangers, 3-2 in overtime. a very exciting time to be a los angeles sports fan. more people are pretending to care about hockey this week than ever. but, as is the case during a big championship like this, our elected officials make bets with each other. california governor jerry brown and the governor of new york

andrew cuomo made what might be the worst bet ever. if the kings beat the rangers, cuomo will send governor brown a gift basket containing sausage, wing sauce, maple syrup, apples, oysters and wine. a gift basket. and if the rangers beat the kings jerry brown has agreed to send governor cuomo, a book of california history and, pack of lightly salted organic brown rice cakes. not exactly biggy and tupac as far as feuds go. sounded like governor cuomo waited until the last minute. raided his fridge. i don't know. sausage, syrup. send them over. now the stanley cup bet between the mayors of cities is more interesting. and the l.a. mayor and the new york may your agreed thor will show and perform a song. this is loser central, right here. this is where the losers come. if the rangers come, mayor garcetti will do "new york, new

york," and mayor deblazio will do "i love l.a." and it should be fun. won't be as much fun if the maple leafs had been in it and mayor of toronto came to do a song. but, fun nonetheless. i think you will enjoy the snow we have plan ford you tonight. we have music from one republic, the very funny jenny slate is here. and curtis jackson, better known as 50 cent is with us too. [ cheers and applause ] he has so many gift. he is a, multitalented rapper, actor, producer, there is really nothing this man can't do. okay. besides throw a baseball. other than that, that'why you should never throw out the first pitch ever. in other embarrassing sports news, have you seen the video of

president obama working out? the president was staying at a marriott in warsaw, in poland tuesday. and he want to work out at the hotel gym. which, i, was surprising to me. hotel gyms exist? i mean -- i always seat signs in the elevator the i thought that was a joke. but any way, secret service didn't close the gym down. the president went in and started exercising with everyone else. and someone shot video of him doing it. there he is. that's how i dance at weddings by the way. [ cheers and applause ] >> accused the president of being soft on cardio. there has been a surprising amount of criticism. the secret service criticized for not seeing that someone was videotaping. fitness experts have been criticizing the president's form. true. he is even taking it on the chin

from foreign leaders. >> tired of wimpy workouts that leave you scrawny like little twig crushed beneath the paws of the big bear. it's time to putinsize. like a track. lifting tiny weights is weak like woman. putin size lets you take off your shirt, show pectorals, before/after. before/after. before/after! get strong like rock. not weak like barack. putincize now. do it! >> announcer: available at walgreen's. >> jimmy: you know if you have been following the high octane world of competitive spelling, you know there is a big shake-up at scripps national spelling bee last week. for the first time in 52 years they had two winners. 13-year-old anson sujo, and

shiram hathwar. kept spelling words until they ran out of word. they spelled all the word correctly. they said, oh, well, you're co-winners. what the hell happened to this country? in my day if we ran out of word we would make those kids fight to the death. i was raised in the 12th century. things were different then. any way, every year i invite the winner to come and compete against me in a spelling competition. i too was a spelling champion. but this year, i had to invite two of them, and we are going to bring them out now. please welcome this year's scripps spelling bee champions, congratulations. congratulations. now, first of all i want to tell our audience, these guys are real divas, you know what they asked for in the contract rider in their dressing rooms. they asked for the oxford
