The Silicon Valley Guys Who Turned Around The Warriors Don't Believe In Their Ridiculous Luck
Friday night, in the third quarter of a home game against the Boston Celtics, Steph Curry started throwing up threes with no more trouble than a drunk trying to fall onto a sofa.

Russell Westbrook On Reggie Jackson's Celebration: "Some Real Bullshit"
Last night’s game mattered a hell of a lot more to the Pistons than it did to the Thunder. OKC is locked into the third seed in the West, and rested Kevin Durant and Serge Ibaka.

Husain Abdullah Retires At Age 30, Citing Concussions

The Washington Huskies upset the Stanford Cardinal 85-76 this afternoon to book the first ticket to the Final Four in Indianpolis.

The Hawks Stranded Jeff Teague At The Detroit Arena Last Night
The Hawks beat the Pistons last night, and Jeff Teague scored 12 points in the victory. This apparently wasn’t enough to get him his spot on the team bus, as they left without him and he had to call his sister to come and pick him up. At least he had a pizza?...
Buddy Hield Is As Fun As College Basketball Gets
The wildest aspect of the NCAA Tournament is its proclivity for upsets. Unless you have an allegiance to Michigan State, West Virginia, or Cal, or you really care about the health of your bracket, those teams all losing to lower seeds was the most thrilling part of the opening weekend. Chaos is the ...
Is The Longhorn Network Killing The Big 12?

Lawsuit Claims New York Giants Went To Hilarious Lengths To Make A Michael Strahan Jersey Appear Game-Worn
This is a weird one. Michael Strahan’s last NFL game was in 2008, when his Giants upset the 18-0 New England Patriots to win Super Bowl XLII. He had a sack and a pair of tackles in that game and left a 15-year NFL career for a very successful second act as a television host....
What's Wrong With The Oklahoma City Thunder?
After the Thunder collapsed and let the Minnesota Timberwolves come back and beat them in Oklahoma City last night, Kevin Durant took the blame and wore the hairshirt. Even if it’s just KD self-flagellating, this quote sums up the sadness of OKC’s last month pretty succinctly:...
