The Warriors Are Cruel
I won’t presume to know how Grizzlies fans were feeling during the first few minutes of last night’s Game 5 loss to the Warriors.

Steph Curry’s statistical output from his last two games isn’t anything to freak out over—22 points and seven assists against Dallas on Friday, followed by 12 points in four assists against the Clips on Sunday—but in each of those games he made plays that should have led anyone who saw them to one c...

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...
Wisconsin Freshmen Practice Not Dying While Diving For Loose Balls

Did This Comments Section Nostradamus Predict The Warriors' Season?
Most internet commenters are dumb, and you're better off never venturing into the comments section. A lot of the Deadspin staff subscribes to the Cigarette Theory of internet comments, which states that reading an internet comment is akin to smoking a cigarette. It's fine if you do so sparingly, but...
Steph Curry Has A Steph Curry Game
If you thought anything at all like "this Warriors-Mavericks game tonight isn't worth staying up late for," you should immediately smack yourself in the head. Hard.
