The Islanders Got Hilariously Outshot And Still Won
The Montreal Canadiens got 56 shots on goal against goalie Thomas Greiss and the New York Islanders. On the defensive end, they only gave up 24 shots.

Ben Simmons And Kyle Lowry Plan To Meet In Tunnel After Ejections, Deny Any Actual Meeting
Ben Simmons and Kyle Lowry were both ejected with less than 10 seconds to go in today’s Raptors-Sixers game.

Sleepy DeMarcus Cousins Pays Dearly For Passing Ball To Wrong Team
In the opening minutes of today’s Knicks-Pelicans tilt DeMarcus Cousins found himself in an awkward spot, loading up a pass to teammate Anthony Davis just as Davis shifted inside, and as defenders Enes Kanter and Kristaps Porzingis closed in to deny the action. Sunday afternoon basketball is sometim...
Markelle Fultz's Shoulder Is Healed But His Jumper Is Just As Busted As Ever
We’re at the point, now, where practice court videos of a close-to-healthy Markelle Fultz taking unbearably bad-looking jumpers are just sad and infuriating. What the fuck happened? Who did this? Who can I yell at, right now, about what has happened. Anyway, God, look at this:...
Knicks Point Guard Options Are Somehow Getting Even More Depressing
A lingering sore spot for your New York Knicks, who’ve spent most of the last month sucking and losing, is point guard: Frank Ntilikina might one day be the answer at the NBA’s most important position, but right now he’s a wildly inefficient offensive player playing backup minutes behind, of all peo...

Kolten Wong Had An Especially Frightening Time During Saturday's Missile Scare
Saturday’s brief missile scare is destined to become an obscure bit of trivia, especially after our idiot president inevitably fires a nuclear missile at, like, Luxembourg, over construction delays in the building of another gaudy Trump property.

Now The Doomed Clippers Are Missing The Indestructible DeAndre Jordan
DeAndre Jordan hasn’t missed a game due to injury in his entire 10-year NBA career, a pretty remarkable streak for anyone, let alone a gigantic behemoth of a man.
