DeMarcus Cousins Thinks Vivek Ranadivé And Vlade Divac Pulled A "Coward Move"
DeMarcus Cousins has left Sacramento, but he still has choice words for the simmering poop stew he left behind, and especially for the two stirring it: Kings owner Vivek Ranadivé and general manager Vlade Divac.

Now Let Us Heap Scorn Upon The NBA Trade Deadline Fuck-Ups

JaVale McGee And Shaq Beef On Twitter After Shaq Roasts McGee On TV Again
Human lowlight reel JaVale McGee and Shaq have had beef for a while now.

The Pelicans Are Playing With House Money
The DeMarcus Cousins era did not get off to the best start in New Orleans last night, as the Pelicans were blown out by the Rockets 129-99.

LeBron Was Everywhere Tonight, As Usual
For the first time since LeBron returned to Cleveland, the rest of the Eastern Conference is not quaking in utter fear of the Cavaliers. Toronto just traded for Serge Ibaka and P.J.
