Idiot On The Field Invades NBA Finals [UPDATE]
Click through for his political statement:...
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....
Jeff Van Gundy Tells Incredible O.J. Simpson Chase Story
After seeing a promo for ESPN’s upcoming O.J. Simpson documentary, Jeff Van Gundy decided the time was right to tell an incredible story about the O.J. Simpson white Bronco chase, one that he and Pat Riley apparently held onto for two decades. I don’t know that I believe it, but I desperately want t...
Pittsburgh Jinxes the Penguins, Rounds Up Couches So Hockey Fans Can't Burn Them
Five years ago, the Vancouver Canucks boned up a Game 7 at home and the city of Vancouver responded with a massive riot. The riot resulted in five million Canadian dollars of property damage and also a fantastic photo of a couple taking a break from burning stuff to make out in the street. The City ...
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....
Klay Thompson Thinks Timofey Mozgov's Screen Was "Kind Of Dirty"
Klay Thompson was briefly removed from Game 3 of the NBA Finals after a collision with Cavs center Timofey Mozgov left him with a contusion on his left thigh. After the game, Thompson was still annoyed about how things went down:...
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....
Richard Sherman Is Fed Up With Publicly Funded Stadiums
Seahawks cornerback and all-around good-opinion-haver Richard Sherman was talking politics on the radio yesterday, in a mostly jokey interview where he said that if he were elected President, he’d tap Doug Baldwin as his Secretary of Defense because “he’s an angry guy.” But this part wasn’t jokey:...
RGIII Says He’s Throwing Passes Into Neighbors’ Yards Because He Cares
Cleveland quarterback Robert Griffin III—that still needs a little more time to sink in—wants to prove that he can take instruction from coaches. For one example which appropriately represents the Browns’ reputation as an NFL team, Griffin had a habit in Washington of holding onto the football when ...
How Do I Tell My Friends I Can't Afford To Hang Out With Them?
Ask An Adequate Woman is a space where readers can ask the questions they can’t—or maybe just won’t!—pose to their friends about relationships, fashion, family dramas, dating, existential crises, weird sex stuff, and everything else. The Women of Deadspin (and some of our clever friends) are here to...
The New Stadium For Hartford's Minor League Baseball Team Is A Total Mess
The Rockies’ AA affiliate Hartford Yard Goats are performing well enough in their first season, and sit in third place in the Eastern League, but the Connecticut club’s stadium situation is a different story. To make matters worse, the mayor and developers are blaming each other for the fiasco....
Sidney Crosby Is The Anti-Steeler
It started as a joke here at Deadspin, when Drew Magary called the Penguins the Ice Steelers. Naturally, I decided that it actually was the perfect name for my favorite hockey team and proceeded to only ever refer to them by that, modifying it slightly to fit with traditional Pittsburgh-ese to “Ice ...
Cobb County Needs To Raise Taxes To Pay For Public Parks Because All The Park Money Already Went To The Braves' New Stadium
SunTrust Park, the Braves’ fancy new suburban stadium, came at a cost of nearly $400 million to Cobb County taxpayers. It doesn’t open until next year, but that bill is already coming due—and the opportunity cost is no longer theoretical....
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?...
