Here's How The First Round Of The 2016 NBA Draft Shook Out
The 2016 NBA Draft proceeded in a calm, orderly fashion for most of the evening, with only one big trade coming down the pipeline, and the chaos that was promised this year (like the chaos that gets promised every year) mostly amounted to teams staring each other down then doing nothing (as they do ...
LeBron Told A Great Story About The First Time He Met Timofey Mozgov
As far as athlete speeches go, LeBron James’s address to a sea of Cavaliers fans at yesterday’s victory parade was pretty great. James spent his 15 minutes on stage cursin’ and jokin’ and thanking each of his teammates individually. The best moment came when he got to Timofey Mozgov....

Celtics Win Trade Between Nets And Pacers
The Brooklyn Nets have gotten themselves into the pre-draft trade bonanza, reportedly sending forward Thaddeus Young to the Indiana Pacers in exchange for the 20th pick in tonight’s draft and a future second-round pick. To the Pacers I say, “So you just traded for Jeff Teague and Thaddeus Young this...
An Incomplete, Amateurish NBA Draft Preview
The NBA Draft is Thursday, which feels way too soon given that a few Cavaliers are probably still drunk from post-Game 7 festivities. The best perk of a Finals going seven games is a short refractory period between the best actual basketball of the year and the best imaginary basketball of the year....

Now You Can Watch LeBron's Block From Every Conceivable Angle
Just when I thought I was finally ready to move on from The Block, the NBA went ahead and put together this compilation that shows it from every angle in the arena. The one that starts at the 27-second mark had me hootin’ and hollerin’ all over again....
Not Now, Dwyane Wade
A lot of people are still thinking about NBA Finals. And who can blame them? Some truly wild shit went down in that series, and it capped off one of the most improbable comebacks in sports history. Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade is also thinking about the Finals ... from 2006:...

Is LeBron The Greatest Of All Time Now?
Three weeks ago, if you had told me that you thought LeBron James was the greatest basketball player of all time, I would have done the annoying thing where I scrunch my face up and pantomime comparing weights on my hands and go Ehhhhhhhhh and launch into an intolerable disquisition about pure baske...
LeBron James Answers All The Questions
My favorite quote to come out of a post-Finals coronation that was full of good ones came from Cavaliers GM David Griffin. Here’s what he had to say to ESPN’s Zach Lowe right after his team’s Game 7 victory:...

LeBron's Block Still Doesn't Seem Possible
A lot of incredible, spectacular shit went into Game 7. The balance of all this shit tilted slightly in favor of the Cavs, and that was always going to be the case in any scenario that had the Cavs actually winning—in a strictly player-for-player accounting, they are very clearly less good than the ...

LeBron Says He Was Motivated By Some Hurtful Parting Words In Miami
One of the running subplots of the 2015 Finals was LeBron James’s reference to a “secret motivation” driving him—something he shared with teammates, and even with Dwyane Wade, but refused to reveal to the public until he won a championship in Cleveland. He didn’t win last year, but that motivation r...
The Moments Mean Everything
It could not have been a better ending, and it could not have been a more incredible path to get there. This is the stuff sports movies are made of, only no movie could possibly provide enough backstory, enough pathos to make the Cavaliers’ championship mean what it does; only real life can give pro...
Safe To Say Scott Van Pelt Won't Be Missing Skip Bayless
Tonight’s conclusion of the NBA season also means the imminent conclusion of Skip Bayless’s tenure as a polluter of ESPN’s airwaves. Many of his co-workers, it seems, are happy to see him leave....
