Murray State Vs. Marquette Should Be Sick As Hell
Thank goodness Murray State made it into the NCAA Tournament, because before last Saturday it seemed worryingly possible that Ja Morant and his Racers might be hanging out in the NIT this postseason. But after finishing as OVC regular-season co-champions with Belmont and then winning their conferenc...
Just Try To Stop Markus Howard
The most remarkable aspect of 2019’s most remarkable college basketball player is his age: Markus Howard just turned 20 years old. The Marquette junior guard is one of the youngest players in his class, yet the 5-foot-11 Howard has spent this revelatory season torching all comers....
The Warriors Had Another Weird One, And Now It's Time To Read Steve Kerr's Lips
The Warriors added to a very odd and possibly concerning stretch of games last night with a 115-111 loss to the Phoenix Suns, who really stink. This loss followed a 122-105 demolition of the Nuggets on Friday night that was supposed to signal a return to form, as it was preceded by an embarrassing 3...
Matthew Tkachuk Sparked A Big Ol' Scrum By Being Matthew Tkachuk<em></em><em></em>
Calgary Flames forward Matthew Tkachuk, one of the most annoying dudes to play against in the NHL, picked up a ticky-tack goalie interference call that disallowed a goal in the first period of the Flames’ eventual 2-1 loss to the Golden Knights on Wednesday. So naturally, Tkachuk decided to go back ...
Everyone Has Issues, But, Finally, So Do The Warriors
For those of us who revel in kneejerk stupid on a daily basis, so, for everyone, the NBA is the perfect training ground for any anti-PhD candidates. Every game is a daily rectal thermometer to be wielded as a way to measure teams’ futures, with the benefit of that being that each subject is an endle...
Hmm, Maybe The Warriors With DeMarcus Cousins Aren't Invincible After All
There’s still time for Golden State’s all-All-NBA five-man lineup to coalesce into the world-vaporizing unit it appears to be on paper, but a few terrifying stretches aside that hasn’t happened yet. Inserting DeMarcus Cousins into their rotation has so far been a bit of a negative for the Warriors, ...
It Is The Warriors' Sacred Duty To Orbital Strike The Celtics Into Hell Tonight
It’s been rough going for the poor Boston Celtics lately. They’ve lost five of six since the break, they’ve made no headway in their pursuit of a top-four seed in the playoffs, and they got absolutely walloped at home by James Harden and the Houston Rockets two nights ago. Perhaps even more ominousl...

Brett Brown Doesn’t Need To Instruct Ben Simmons To Miss Free Throws
The Sixers played the Warriors tough on Saturday night. Playing without Joel Embiid once again, Philly led by 14 points early in the third quarter and rallied back into the game after the Warriors blew by them. It was back and forth into the final seconds. Sure, Golden State ended up pulling out the...

Warriors Beaten On Just The Most Busted, Chaotic Dwyane Wade Buzzer-Beater
The Heat beat the Warriors Wednesday night in Miami, 126–125, in an outrageously fun basketball game. The Heat led by as many as 24 points, but the Warriors, who very often cruise distractedly through big chunks of regular season games, roared back into it and had the lead in the final minute of reg...

DeMarcus Cousins Hit With Really Dumb Technical Foul For Hurling Opponent's Shoe Into Crowd
DeMarcus Cousins has received many technical fouls in his career, and the majority of them have been well-earned. This one, from Monday night’s Warriors win over the Hornets, was 100 percent, Grade-A bologna. Cousins, checking Cody Zeller away from the ball and out near the arc, noticed Jeremy Lamb’...

Vegas Golden Knights Trade For Mark Stone, Will Keep Him Around Forever
The Vegas Golden Knights paid a pretty steep price to get highly sought-after Ottawa Senators winger Mark Stone at the final bell of the trade deadline on Monday, giving up their number-one prospect in defenseman Erik Brannstrom (along with the expiring contract of Oscar Lindberg and a second-round ...
College Hockey Man Uses Second College Hockey Man To Cause Some Property Damage
Minnesota upset No. 16 Notre Dame at home 2-1 on Saturday in the Golden Gophers’ Big Ten regular season finale. While the Fighting Irish didn’t come away with the desired result, a win, they perhaps got what can be considered the next best thing: a huge ass hit that will make everyone forget the sco...
DeMarcus Cousins On Whether Zion Williamson Should Return This Season: "College Basketball Is Bullshit"
Duke freshman Zion Williamson’s college career is suddenly up in the air after he tore through the side of his shoe and hurt his knee Wednesday night. If we take the school at its word that the injury isn’t serious, Williamson will have to decide if he wants to go on the shelf in preparation for the...
