It Is Disgusting And Unfair That Giannis Is Making Clutch Jumpers Now
Giannis Antetokounmpo put up another absurd Greek Freak line Saturday night in a Bucks road victory over the Wizards: 34 points on 17 shots, 12 rebounds, seven assists, a couple steals, and a block.

Report: Jeff Triplette Will No Longer Be Available To Screw Up Football Games
NFL referee Jeff Triplette, famous for blinding Orlando Brown and bungling a 2013 replay review badly enough to trigger changes to the NFL’s replay system, was part of the officiating crew for Saturday’s AFC Wild Card game, a sloppily officiated game that drew harsh criticism from former officiating...
Lonzo Ball's Father Says No Lakers Player Wants To Play For Luke Walton
LaVar Ball, right now, is probably most associated with overheated popup retail openings and the bizarre basketball odyssey of his two younger sons. He’s a reality TV star and a famous Famous Person, and part of his job as a person who is famous for being famous is to say outlandish things in order ...
Steph Curry Went Absolutely Bonkers On The Clippers
By now, Steph Curry highlights are sort of redundant. His very way of playing is a highlight reel: he uses darting dribble moves to create space to launch bombs from insane distances; he plays high-stakes, gambling defense; nearly every pass he throws is a slick no-look job. That’s how you turn a re...

Wonderful, Miserable Browns Fans Throw "Perfect Season" Parade Through Cleveland
Browns fans, perhaps more adept at wringing enjoyment out of crushing hopelessness than any fanbase on our planet, threw a delightful parade through Cleveland to celebrate the team’s historic winless season. God bless these poor sons of bitches:...
Overburdened Millennial Kristaps Porzingis Is Wearing Down
The middle part of the Eastern Conference is a muddy mess, right now. Whether there are any actual Good teams below the Cavs in the standings is an open question. Maybe the Wizards are turning it on? Maybe the Sixers will rise? Certainly early optimism about a deep field of bonafide playoff teams is...
Ball Family Baltic Basketball Circus Halted By Disallowed Reality Show Cameras
Let us check in on the jet-setting Ball brothers, whose detour into the murky waters of international professional basketball is totally about professional development and preparing for the NBA and is not at all about sacrificing a couple of promising careers at the altar of personal brand managemen...

Federal Court Strikes Down Asinine Rule Prohibiting High School Anthem Protests

NBA Competition Committee Will Try To Solve Dumb Late-Game Out-Of-Bounds Replay Problem
At least twice in 2017 game-winning buckets have been scored by players who appeared to have stepped out of bounds immediately prior to sinking their shots. The NBA’s replay rules have a big dumb hole that makes these kinds of plays unreviewable, and therefore uncorrectable, but that may not be the ...
LeBron's Birthday Is An Awkwardly Sentimental Occasion In Shanghai
If you read this Dave McMenamin story about LeBron James reflecting upon his life and career on his 33rd birthday, which is today, first of all you will learn that LeBron has lost his last six games in Utah. Far stranger than that bit of trivia, you will come across a link that will direct you to th...
