The Warriors beat the Clippers 106-98 today, but the most intriguing part of the game happened after the final buzzer, when Dahntay Jones bumped Draymond Green during Green's postgame interview....
Gonzalo Higuaín Forgets He's Really Good, Bungles Really Easy Goal
In a season where Phillip Hofmann committed this crime against finishing, it would take a special bit of incompetence to snatch away the award of Miss Of The Season. This is not that. It is, however, a really bad effort from a really good player, making it particularly embarrassing in its own righ...
Penn State's D.J. Newbill Hits Buzzer-Beater With Hand All In His Face
D.J. Newbill might not be a household name, nor will he likely become one during the coming NCAA Tournament his Nittany Lions probably won't make, but he is the Big Ten's leading scorer and is capable of moments like this buzzer-beating three that gave Penn State the win over Minnesota....
No Big Deal, Just Stephen Curry Dishing Another Unbelievable Pass
Stephen Curry completes passes that nobody else even thinks of. A fake behind-the-back to offhand wraparound pass isn't something you see every day, or any day. Watch Draymond Green sitting on the three-point line and Klay Thompson diving into the paint behind a ball-watching Monta Ellis, and on a...
Like <i>Short Circuit </i>For Knuckleheads: <i>Chappie, </i>Reviewed
1. District 9, the 2009 full-length debut from South African writer-director Neill Blomkamp, gave us an entirely new way of thinking about science-fiction movies. I wasn't as crazy about it as most other critics, but you couldn't deny that it was trying something different, creating an alternate u...
Bummed-Out Rory McIlroy Tosses Club Right Into The Damn Lake
During his round at the WGC-Cadillac Championship today, Rory McIlroy yanked his second shot on the par-5 eighth hole into the water. Then he did that thing that a lot of us who golf would probably do if we were extremely rich and could afford to buy new clubs all the time....
Five Boozy Hot-Drink Recipes To Enjoy During This Neverending Winter
It's snowing again. That's true of the place where I live, and probably of the place where you live, because apparently, Mother Nature and Father Time have colluded to ensure that this winter will never end, ever. As if all this snow weren't enough, we'll spend the next seven or so years hearing...
Blindfolded Dunk Does Not Go As Planned
This is Justin Melton. He plays in the Philippine Basketball Association, and despite being just 5-foot-9, is a capable dunker. He is not, however, very good at dunking when he is blindfolded....
Jets Trade For Brandon Marshall
The Bears have agreed to send WR Brandon Marshall to the Jets, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. The haul hasn't been reported yet (Update: a fifth rounder), but it shouldn't be huge: Chicago was desperate to move Marshall before his $7.5 million guarantee kicked in next week....
Let's All Be More Like This Large Fellow Who Slapped Joakim Noah's Ass
You might be tempted to call E'Twaun Moore's game-winning three the highlight of last night's contest between the Thunder and Bulls, but I submit that the night's truly transcendent moment occurred on the ensuing possession, when a portly Bulls fan lost all notion of etiquette and got himself a big ...
E'Twaun Moore Buries Thunder With Game-Winning Three
Here's a fun look at E'Twaun Moore's three-pointer with two seconds left to beat the Thunder, which featured a cool play where the ball was inbounded to Pau Gasol in the post, and immediately thrown back out to an open Moore. That's Russell Westbrook—who stepped out of bounds on the ensuing possessi...

Raw Video Feed Of The Bulls' Welcome Back Ceremony For Craig Sager
Craig Sager is serving as the TNT sideline reporter for tonight's Thunder-Bulls contest, his first game in nearly a year after spending the last 11 months fighting leukemia. During the first quarter the Bulls put together a nice little tribute to Sager, including Benny the Bull presenting him with a...
Wisconsin Freshmen Practice Not Dying While Diving For Loose Balls
Wisconsin is playing at Minnesota right now, which provides a unique challenge: the raised floors of Williams Arena. The Golden Gophers gym is one of the last few in America that features a raised floor—of about two feet—and the Badger freshmen have likely never played on one. So yesterday feature...
No Brandon Marshalls Have Been Traded
It's hot-stove season (or whatever) in the NFL, and we've already seen our fair share of surprising moves. But with free agency still yet to actually open, a fake Twitter account and a player with the same name as another have teamed up to sow some quality confusion....
Steph Curry Launches A Three, Doesn't Even Watch It Go In
Hey, Steph Curry, how is your confidence level these days?...
MLS And Players Union Reach Agreement. What Does It Mean, And Who Won?
Twenty-four hours after it looked like a work stoppage was inevitable—and 48 hours before the beginning of the season—Major League Soccer and the Major League Soccer Players Union announced that they had reached a tentative deal on a new collective bargaining agreement. Here are the highlights o...
When Did Gordon Hayward Turn Into A Doe-Eyed Channing Tatum?
I will admit I don't watch the Utah Jazz, but I watched Gordon Hayward at Butler, when the small Indiana school had their tournament runs in March Madness. In my mind, Hayward still looked like the baby-faced Indiana stringbean he was in college. Wrong. Gordon Hayward's gorgeous now....
