Draymond Green Is An Asshole
“Golden State’s reliance on an unstable isotope is a high-stakes gamble that has finally blown up in their face,” FreeDarko founder Bethlehem Shoals writes for GQ re: Draymond Green’s Game 5 suspension for whacking LeBron James in the dick and balls. “The degree to which Golden State depends on Gree...
Report: Draymond Green Will Be At An A's Game While The Warriors Play
Draymond Green, a two-bit Kevin Garnett impersonator who plays for the Golden State Warriors, can’t be in the arena for tonight’s Game 5 because of his suspension for punching LeBron’s dick. But he will be close by....
LeBron Did Not Appreciate Draymond Green Calling Him A "Bitch," And The Warriors Don't Care
During his press conference after Game 4, LeBron James alluded to the fact that Draymond Green called him some unkind things during their tiff at the end of the game. He was apparently more specific when talking to ESPN’s Chris Broussard after the game, telling the reporter that Green called him a “...
Meanwhile, An Update On Draymond Green
Draymond “The Sterilizer” Green helped his team’s cause en route to the Warriors’ win tonight in Game 4....
The NBA Playoffs Have Been Historically Non-Competitive
No matter who ends up winning the NBA Finals, they will have both won and lost a Finals game by 30 points. That’s as appropriate of a coda as any for what has been a historically non-competitive playoffs....
Enjoy This Wonderfully Awkward Moment From The Cavaliers' Press Conference
This moment, via Zach Harper, is a lot to take in:...
What's Wrong With The Warriors? Nothing, Chill The Hell Out.
The Warriors are plenty easy to dislike. There’s Draymond. There’s the techno-libertarian scum that’s (unfairly) come to represent them. There are the moving screens. There’s Kevin Draper. There’s all the winning, which, in an NBA postseason that really hasn’t had more than a handful of entertaining...
The Cavs Knocked The Stuffing Out Of The Warriors, And We Got Ourselves A Series
The most spectacular play LeBron James made tonight was his pogo-stick leap up to grab a stray Kyrie Irving alley-oop, but if there’s one particular play that embodied the overwhelming beatdown the Cavaliers administered upon the heads of the Warriors, it was one that didn’t even count. Towards the ...
LeBron Jumped To The Moon To Slam This Alley-Oop Home
LeBron scrambled to his knees to recover this ball and ping it to Kyrie Irving, who tossed this alley-oop about three feet too high. Most humans (hell, most NBA players) wouldn’t be able to ascend, grab the wayward pass, and slam it violently into the hoop, but LeBron had no problem at all with it....
The Finals Are Butt And I'm So Mad At The Cavs
First things first: They get no credit for making the Finals. LeBron James could win three playoff series in the East with any four Supreme Court justices as his running mates. Account for that, and what have these bozos contributed to the effort?...
How Good Is Kyrie Irving, Really?
When the Cavaliers were struggling to close out the Toronto Raptors in the Eastern Conference Finals, ESPN’s Zach Lowe penned a column placing much of the blame on the Cavs’ defense, and in particular on Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love. As he criticized their efforts in the pick-and-roll, he threw in th...
Six Ways The Cavs Can Get Back Into This Series
The Cleveland Cavaliers have been dominated by the Golden State Warriors through the first two games of the NBA Finals. Down 2-0, the Cavs are running short on chances to get back into the series, but I think they still have a shot if they make the following adjustments....
It Seems The Cavs Are Just Now Learning That The Warriors Play Small
The Warriors disemboweled the Cavaliers last night, winning by 33 in a game that didn’t feel that close, and while there are a million different reasons why, one of the biggest is how effectively Golden State played small. Down two to begin the second quarter, the Warriors went the next 12 minutes w...
Kevin Love In Concussion Protocol After Taking Elbow To The Head
This hasn’t exactly been the redemptive trip to the Finals Kevin Love was probably hoping for. After scoring 17 points and grabbing 13 rebounds in the Game 1 loss, Love had the worst night possible in Game 2. He scored five points and corralled three rebounds in 21 minutes, and had to remove himself...
Should Intent Matter When A Lousy Player Whacks A Guy In The Dick And Balls?
For my money, the strangest moment of last night’s lopsided NBA Finals Game 1 came just after Cavaliers guard Matthew Dellavedova whacked Warriors forward Andre Iguodala in the dick and balls....
The Cavs Should Replace Matthew Dellavedova With This Dog
I would be willing to bet a sizable amount of money that at some point during these NBA Finals, bad basketball player Matthew Dellavedova will throw a wildly inaccurate and embarrassing lob pass. It’s his signature move, after all....
Shaun Livingston's Jumper Is The Poison On The Warriors' Blade
Imagine playing for the Cavaliers, and spending the better part of the last two nights stress-dreaming about how you will possibly be able to survive Steph Curry and Klay Thompson. Then imagine playing in Game 1 of the NBA Finals and escaping their wrath with nothing more than a 20-point flesh wound...
The Warriors Didn't Even Need Their Stars To Wallop The Cavs
Here’s how thorough the whooping the Warriors bench put on the Cavaliers in tonight’s 104-89 beatdown was: Shaun Livingston got a curtain call; the Cavs’ best highlight was a nutshot; Brandon Rush and Timofey Mozgov played; Golden State’s bench outscored Cleveland’s 45-5 before a brief garbage time ...
Matthew Dellavedova Thumps Andre Iguodala In The Dick And Balls
Earlier today, we had Matthew Dellavedova atop our rankings of the most hateable players in the NBA Finals, and he lived up to his billing in short order, striking the first blow against an opponent’s dick and balls. The victim? Andre Iguodala....
