Justin Bieber's Latest Basketball Highlight Is A Sad Sham
Justin Bieber is back on the court, ballin' like only Justin Bieber can.

Gerald Green Is The Gunner We Need
Suns swingman Gerald Green, who is putting the finishing touches on the best season of his career, blitzed the Oklahoma City Thunder with a career-high 41 points last night, the better part of them coming from eight made three-pointers.

Russell Westbrook Needed Only 21 Minutes To Get A Triple-Double
Yes, it was against what is essentially a D-League team, but Russell Westbrook's 21-minute bludgeoning of the 76ers is worth being excited about. 13 points, 14 assists, and 10 rebounds in 21 minutes isn't something that just happens to a guy coming off his second knee surgery of the year. 13 points...
Disappointed Knicks Kid Is Just So Disappointed
The Knicks lost 96-85 to the dreadful Pistons in Detroit last night, and this poor kid was there to see it. Being a Knicks fan is hard enough, but being a Knicks fan who lives in Michigan and only gets to see his favorite team the few times they come to town is even harder....

Jamal Crawford Has An Incredible Memory
Jamal Crawford got himself into a duel with Kevin Durant yesterday, answering KD's 42 points with an incredibly efficient 36 of his own on 13-20 shooting. But Crawford didn't just flex his genius on the court, he also proved that his memory is just as sharp as his crossover....
New Hampshire Basketball Team Ends Four Year Long Losing Streak
The Timberlane Regional High School boys' basketball team headed into tonight's season finale against Keene with an 0-17 record on the season.

Kyle Lowry Gets Boned By Terrible Foul Call, Runs Right Off The Court
Some serious bullshit went down at the end of last night's Raptors-Kings game.
