The Lakers Got Walloped By A 36-2 Run
At one point Wednesday night, the Lakers might’ve thought they were going to beat the Thunder. They were up 44-43 with four minutes left in the second quarter, Kobe Bryant has been resurgent lately, and he was even dunking the ball for just the second time all season:...

The Spurs' Ball Movement Is Gorgeous
It is 2015 and the San Antonio Spurs, by the grace of God, look like a more polished version of the 2007 San Antonio Spurs. Sure, their 24-5 record is mostly the product of a defense that is 5.6 points per 100 possessions better than the next-best defense, but their offense is still humming along be...

Great Moments In NBA Color Commentary
Color commentator Glenn Consor came up from the rear of Comcast SportsNet’s class today to fill Phil Chenier’s seat, and might have made an ass out of himself during tonight’s Wizards broadcast.

The Worst Man On Facebook Ruined <i>Star Wars</i>
Penn Holderness, professional, uh, person who makes his family help him ruin pop music tracks on YouTube, is bad. His videos are bad. His hair is bad. “All About That Baste” is the absolute worst thing I have ever seen in my life. Everything about him is bad. Bad bad bad. Also, he (allegedly) big-ti...
