The Timberwolves' Cool Youths Mushed The Thunder
When Carmelo Anthony’s high-arcing three from the left wing splashed in, to give his Oklahoma City Thunder a 113-112 fourth-quarter lead over the Timberwolves last night, it also left just under five seconds on the game clock. Time enough for Minnesota’s Andrew Wiggins to do this:...

Mitch Trubisky Completed Four Passes And The Bears Won<em></em>

Khalil Mack May Very Well Be Too Strong
Chiefs tackle Eric Fisher is 6-foot-7 and weighs 315 pounds. Raiders linebacker Khalil Mack is also quite large, coming in at 6-foot-3 and 250 pounds, but not so large, one might think, as to be able to turn a man of Fisher’s size into a Jenga tower in pads. And yet, we can all see the GIF at the to...
Oh Hell Yes, Doris Burke Is Finally Doing The NBA Analysis She Deserves<em></em>
On Valentine’s Day in 1988, Leandra Reilly Lardner became the first woman to serve as a play-by-play commentator on an NBA game. It was a live telecast between the New Jersey Nets and the Philadelphia 76ers on SportsChannel, she recalled recently for the Chicago Tribune. It was a key moment—followed...
The Suns Played Like Trash From The Trash Factory

You’d be wrong....
The Thunder Gave Kevin Durant's Old Number To An Undrafted Rookie
P.J. Dozier, an undrafted rookie who signed with the Oklahoma City Thunder yesterday and will be wearing the No. 35 jersey for as long as he is with the team, told reporters that his choice in jersey number had nothing to do with Kevin Durant, who wore No. 35 for nine years in Oklahoma City before l...
Yasiel Puig Is The New Normal
There is no wrong choice, really, and also there’s no accounting for taste where extravagant full-body thrusting maneuvers and lusty bat flips are concerned. But my personal favorite Yasiel Puig moment of the MLB playoffs thus far isn’t one of the big ones. This should take nothing away from the tim...
