Warriors Fans Are Still Herbs
Another NBA season down, another opportunity to reflect on the fact that Warriors fans are huge fucking herbs and always will be....
About That Warriors White House Visit
Barely hours after the Golden State Warriors won their second title in three season, a report claimed the team had already decided to skip the White House ceremony usually available to championship teams. It seemed plausible, but the claim had little proof supporting it....
JaVale McGee Is Now A Guy With A Championship Ring
Before the Golden State Warriors signed him, JaVale McGee was a big joke. The 7-foot center had spent his career collecting alley-oops, losing track of his defensive assignments, and committing all manner of horrifying blunders. McGee played well enough for the Nuggets in one playoff series to earn ...
Kevin Durant Defeated By Beer
Kevin Durant is now a world champion and a Finals MVP. He is also someone who does not appear to understand the proper way to crack some cold ones and get rowdy with the boys....
Kevin Durant Did What He Came To Do
A basketball team with the two best shooters in the world, the best pure scorer in the world, and the most versatile and fearsome defender in the world just won the NBA Finals. They did it while absorbing some of LeBron James’s best punches, and as awe-inspiring as a 16-1 romp through the playoffs m...
Well, This All Sucks
The entire point of sports, and the main reason it’s any fun, is to see what happens. From the moment last summer when the Golden State Warriors signed Kevin Durant to add to a team that already had three of the, let’s say, 20 best basketball players in the world, we knew what was going to happen. ...
Hat Thief!
A Warriors fan stole Steph Curry’s hat as he headed to the locker room, once again victorious as NBA champion. He wasn’t very happy about it!...
The Warriors Are Victorious
It seems, in retrospect, absurd to think that this game was ultimately decided by single digits. There was never really a point in the second half of Game 5 when it seemed reasonable to believe that Cleveland could win—this was only ever Golden State proving that this team is as historically great a...
Ahh, It's Beautiful
David West’s passionate moment with Tristan Thompson touched us all....
Being A Bandwagon Warriors Fan Is Fun
After Super Bowl XLVII, I was inconsolable over the 49ers’ pants-pissing loss (I’m too young to remember the golden years), and the Giants’ post–World Series Opening Day seemed very, very far away. Bored and kind of depressed about the 49ers (if only I had known how much worse it could get), I began...
The Cavaliers Can't Win Game 5. Or Can They? (No) (But Maybe)
A fun artifact of the past sports year—in which the Golden State Warriors blew a 3-1 lead with home-court advantage in the NBA Finals, the Cleveland Indians blew a 3-1 lead with home-field advantage in the World Series, and the Atlanta Falcons blew a 25-point second-half lead in the Super Bowl—is th...
Kevin Durant Made No Sense While Denying A Report About Him And Draymond Green
One day before Game 4 of the NBA Finals, ESPN’s Zach Lowe published an article about how the Golden State Warriors moved on from blowing a 3-1 lead in last year’s Finals. The piece specifically focused on Draymond Green’s Game 5 suspension and how the Warriors chose to stand behind Green rather than...
It Looks Like Zaza Pachulia Will Not Be Suspended For Whacking Iman Shumpert's Dick And Balls
Lump-headed potato man Zaza Pachulia will not be disciplined by the NBA for attempting to punch Iman Shumpert in the dick and balls in Game 4, according to various reports....
It Takes A Village To Beat The Warriors
After charring the bones of the Cavaliers during the first three games of the NBA Finals and every other playoff opponent before them, the Golden State Warriors finally lost. The dream of 4-4-4-4 is dead and the Warriors now hold the most dangerous lead in sports. ...
The Warriors Now Have A 3-1 Lead But Awful Officiating Is Not To Blame
Friday night’s Game 4 was barely underway before the uneven performance of the officials took center stage. Here, for example, are some tweets from Mary Babers—who is Draymond Green’s mom:...
Draymond Green On Clevelanders: "They Don't Seem To Be The Sharpest People Around"
Cleveland trounced Golden State tonight 137-116 in a record-setting win that kept the Warriors from sweeping the playoffs, but the real story of the game is Draymond Green’s magically-disappearing technical foul. His continued eligibility after what fans and most viewers thought was a disqualifying ...
Steve Kerr Lays On The Sarcasm Toward Former NBAers Who Think They'd Beat The Warriors
The Golden State Warriors are the best NBA team of all time. So naturally, ex-NBA guys are popping up everywhere to claim that they—unlike the Cavaliers, featuring three superstars including one of the two greatest NBA players ever—could have beaten the Warriors....
Are The Warriors The GOAT If They Complete A Sweep?
The Golden State Warriors stand on the brink of history this evening, poised to make an unprecedented clean sweep through the NBA playoffs and rendering all resistance futile. So I suppose it’s time to take the Talk Radio Summer Argument lockbox out of the attic, open it up, and ask: If the Warriors...
Kevin Durant Was Built For This All Along
Barring a monumental collapse so great that it blots out all rational sports discourse for a decade, the Golden State Warriors are going to win the NBA Finals running away. For most of the group, this will be their second title, a slice of redemption after last season’s fabled 3-1 chokejob....
Kyrie Irving Dribbled Away LeBron James's Moment
With under a minute to play in last night’s Game 3 of the NBA Finals and the Cleveland Cavaliers leading 113-111, Golden State’s Kevin Durant calmly stepped into and nailed a long three-pointer right over LeBron James’s outstretched hand. It gave the Warriors a one-point lead, and left the Cavaliers...
