Please Do Not Piss In Anyone's Water Bottle, No, Not Even The Opposing Keeper's

It should go without saying that you are a deeply weird and antisocial person ...
James Harden Gobbled Up Steph Curry, And It Was Wonderful
The Rockets prevailed over the Warriors Saturday night in a game that featured Houston pulling out to a big early lead, the Warriors surging back in the third quarter, and then an odd and awkward cold finish by the visitors that allowed James Harden to pull some late game magic and bring home the vi...
Say A Prayer For Jakob Poeltl, Whose Soul Now Resides In Hell
Early in Saturday’s tilt in Minnesota it looked like the Raptors might pull away from the home Timberwolves, who were missing Jimmy Butler due to soreness in his right knee.

Sleepy DeMarcus Cousins Pays Dearly For Passing Ball To Wrong Team

Markelle Fultz's Shoulder Is Healed But His Jumper Is Just As Busted As Ever
We’re at the point, now, where practice court videos of a close-to-healthy Markelle Fultz taking unbearably bad-looking jumpers are just sad and infuriating. What the fuck happened? Who did this? Who can I yell at, right now, about what has happened. Anyway, God, look at this:...
Knicks Point Guard Options Are Somehow Getting Even More Depressing
A lingering sore spot for your New York Knicks, who’ve spent most of the last month sucking and losing, is point guard: Frank Ntilikina might one day be the answer at the NBA’s most important position, but right now he’s a wildly inefficient offensive player playing backup minutes behind, of all peo...
Trae Young Buried TCU Under A Barrage Of Insane Three-Pointers
Trae Young rules. He leads all of NCAA Division 1 basketball in both scoring and assists, and his 9th-ranked Sooners lead the nation in points per game. Back in mid-December, Young, a freshman playing in his 10th official college game, tied an all-time record when he dished 22 assists in 29 minutes,...
Kolten Wong Had An Especially Frightening Time During Saturday's Missile Scare
Saturday’s brief missile scare is destined to become an obscure bit of trivia, especially after our idiot president inevitably fires a nuclear missile at, like, Luxembourg, over construction delays in the building of another gaudy Trump property. It already seems surreal and dreamlike that just yest...

Now The Doomed Clippers Are Missing The Indestructible DeAndre Jordan
DeAndre Jordan hasn’t missed a game due to injury in his entire 10-year NBA career, a pretty remarkable streak for anyone, let alone a gigantic behemoth of a man.

Illinois High School Rivalry Game Ends On Delicious Game-Winning Buzzer-Beater
You like buzzer-beaters. Of course you do. Last night, in a rivalry game between St. Charles East and St. Charles North, in, umm, St. Charles, Illinois, East came back from a 12 point deficit to tie the game at 47 with just over a minute remaining. The teams traded buckets and free throws over the n...
LPGA Pro Attempts Phil Mickelson Flop Shot Trick, Brains Caddie
You’ve probably seen the clip of Phil Mickelson hitting one of his famous flop shots over a terrified Dave Pelz, stationed not more than three or four feet from the point of contact. That’s about as bitchin’ as golf stunts get, and it is definitely not something you should ever try with anyone you e...
