The NBA Misplaced A Point For 20 Years
Occasionally, from week to week, a league will go back and adjust the statline in a game. Yu Darvish gives up a hit, or LeBron loses a rebound, or Jamaal Charles loses three yards and everyone in your fantasy league ends up in last place. This is more or less like that, except 20 years after the fac...

How Much Is LeBron James Really Worth?
LeBron James is going to be a free agent again. Exactly how much is the best player on the planet worth? Maybe more than you'd think. ...

Melo has officially opted out of his option for 2014-15. The Knicks can still pay him the most—about $129 million over five years to four years $96 million for everyone else—which means at least something since Anthony is 30 now. The Bulls, who have not scored a regulation field goal in two years, a...

You've Probably Played This Guy In Pickup Basketball, And Hated Him
We think this is really important work. We also think college ball and the NBA would be way better if this were a legal move. This is one of those videos that's hard to describe without ruining, so just watch at least halfway. ...

If you're in New York, come see Tom Ley and Jolie Kerr read some of the shitty things commenters have said to them at Housingworks Bookstore Cafe from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. We'll be there too.

The 2014 Heat Were Worse In The Finals Than LeBron's 2007 Cavs Team
At some point around the time Dwyane Wade was impaled, for the second time, on a doddering walkabout turnover in the paint, the wider basketball-viewing world realized that Dwyane Wade has been dead all this time, and was only now being told. But Wade was far from the only Heat carcass to wash up th...

This Is The Perfect Sports Photo
I don't know what else could have possibly gone right in this shot. You get van Persie sprawled out watching his work troll past Casillas, Casillas with nothing to do about it, the mid-ground littered with disbelieving Spanish defenders, and mess of traveling orange shirts all over the stands. It's ...

The Best Photos Of Robin Van Persie's Amazing Flying Header Goal
Robin van Persie pulled the Netherlands even with Spain at 1-1 just before the half with this preposterous flying header on an equally preposterous ball from Daley Blind. Here are the best photos (that we're allowed to use) from the AP and Getty. ...

Remember: Brazil Will Get A Shitload Of Fergie Time If It's Losing
Brazil are tied 1-1 in the second half against Croatia, and there is real danger of the home side dropping points. We ran down all the many ways that Brazil will have an advantage playing at home earlier today—culturally, by strength of schedule, and beyond—but given the situation, thought it was...

Everyone Named Their Kid After Maradona During The 1986 World Cup
Diego Maradona in 1986 was essentially an archangel, razing down everything but Argentina on the way to winning the World Cup. This sparked any number of legacies, from a merchandising empire based chiefly on t-shirts with his and Che Guerva's face on them, to, it seems, thousands and thousands of k...
