San Antonio barber Roberto Ferrel, aka Rob the Solution, grabbed some attention this week for his amazing Tony Parker MVP haircut (check out the video here).
But the Parker is just one of many cuts to be seen on fans' heads during the 2012 NBA playoffs. Here are some of the best, from Twitter:

One for Lakers star Kobe Bryant:

Of course, that's not the first Lakers cut we've seen. As a bonus, here are some older shots of a certain 2012 NBA playoff participant -- starting Saturday night, at least -- who has given his own teams some creative hair tributes over the years:
