Andre Iguodala Passes The Ball Between His Legs And Behind His Back For No Good Reason
Not only was the Globetrotting flair on this pass completely unnecessary to transport the basketball from his hands to Shaun Livingston’s, it didn’t even count since there had already been a whistle on the play....
It's Never Draymond Green's Fault
Warriors forward Draymond Green received a technical foul during Sunday’s game against the Cavaliers, his seventh of the season, and because he’s never really proven himself to be all that adept at self-control, he was asked what he needs to do to avoid further technicals by reporters yesterday....
Kevin Durant On NBA's Referee Reports: "I Think It's Bullshit"
On Christmas, the Golden State Warriors blew a big fourth quarter lead against the Cleveland Cavaliers in their first Finals rematch game. The next day, the NBA admitted that the refs blew a couple big calls at the end of the game. This annoyed Kevin Durant, but not in the direction you might think:...
NBA Admits That Refs Blew Two Calls In Favor Of Cavs; Warriors Remain Chump-Ass Chokers
The Golden State Warriors had all but the killed the Cleveland Cavaliers, and then they lost. This was famously the case back in June, and it was just as true last night. No amount of well-actuallying—not even after tonight, when the NBA owned up to the referees missing two critical late-game calls ...
Kyrie Irving Buried The Warriors Again
Round one between the new-look Warriors and the defending champion Cavaliers went to Cleveland, 109-108, with the knockout blow once again delivered by Kyrie Irving, who drove Klay Thompson into the paint with four seconds left before spinning around and getting an improbable fadeaway jumper to just...
Richard Jefferson Gets Technical Foul For Dunking On, Winking At Kevin Durant
Richard Jefferson dunked all over Kevin Durant during today’s big Warriors-Cavaliers game, and winked at the young man as he headed back up the court. That earned the 36-year-old a technical foul in today’s increasingly no-fun NBA....
Steve Kerr, Like Everyone Else, Blames The Millennials
Millennials, amirite? Don’t know what fabric softener is, don’t drink enough orange juice, put the Warriors down 65-49 to the Nets at halftime tonight....
The NBA's New "Kevin Durant Rule" Will Incentivize Young Superstars To Stay Put
We knew the new CBA made life a little sweeter for the NBA’s superstars, but it’s a dense thing to parse, and explanations have been dribbling out slowly. ESPN’s new Q&A with salary cap expert Larry Coon argues that the most noteworthy development is the owners’ new weapon to keep their superstar pl...
Steve Kerr Leads Warriors Fans In "Moment Of Joy" Sager Tribute
Golden State coach Steve Kerr spoke to fans in attendance for tonight’s Knicks-Warriors game to recognize Craig Sager, who died earlier today—but instead of a moment of silence, Kerr found it more appropriate to lead the crowd in a standing ovation as a “moment of joy.” ...
Draymond Green Is Not A Fan Of The NBA's New CBA
It seemed pretty obvious yesterday that Draymond Green’s vague, frustrated tweets, which coincided with news that the NBA and the NBPA had agreed to a new collective bargaining agreement, were criticisms of the deal. The Golden State Warriors forward confirmed as much today when he went on a long d...
Stephen Curry Nails Tough Jumper, Daps Up Opposing Coach
At first glance you’d think Steph Curry’s cockiness had found a new peak: he hits a turnaround jumper in front of the Pelicans bench, then pauses and offers his hand to Pelican associate head coach Darren Erman, who gives him the saltiest, hastiest little high-five....
The Cavs And Warriors Flexed On The NBA Last Night
Part of the fun of paying close attention to the early part of the NBA season is picking out the trends and performances you didn’t quite see coming. This part of the year is all about asking questions like, Whoa, Kristaps is a star now and the Knicks might be pretty good? and Wait, can the Clippers...
Actual Body Expert Says Draymond Green's Excuses For Balls-Kicking Don't Hold Up
Draymond Green, whose feet regularly find the sensitive fleshy bits between his opponents’ legs, has taken a pretty self-righteous tack in his response to critics: Green says the people who make the rules for the NBA just don’t get how human bodies work....
This Is How The Warriors Will Destroy The World
In three seconds: two passes thrown, roughly 72 feet of hardwood spanned, zero dribbles taken, and suddenly Kevin Durant has yammed it hard. This season we’ve been blessed by frequent instances of Russ and Giannis singlehandedly wrecking shit on the run, but this, um, heartwarming display of teamwor...
Klay Thompson's 60-Point Night Was All Too Easy
What was most striking about Klay Thompson’s 60-point beatdown of the Indiana Pacers tonight was how easy it all was. The Warriors already had one of the best offenses in NBA history last season and they replaced their worst starter with a former MVP during the offseason, so the amount of available ...
Klay Thompson Just Dropped 40 Points In A Half
The Warriors are on pace to finish the season with the best offensive efficiency in NBA history, thanks primarily to the pyrotechnical shooting prowess of Steph Curry and Kevin Durant. Klay Thompson started the season out slowly, but tonight he broke all the way out and scored 40 points in the first...
Draymond Green Kicks Another Opponent
Saturday afternoon, Warriors forward Draymond Green went off on the NBA for its stance that kicking other players can be an unnatural act:...
Draymond Green Needs To Get A Grip
Last night’s double-overtime game between the Rockets and Warriors was perhaps the most entertaining game of the season so far. The level of star power, shot-making, and end-to-end intensity made this one feel like a playoff game that had been transported to December, and that feeling was particular...
This Was A Hell Of A Sequence From Kevin Durant
The Rockets are up at halftime against the Warriors thanks to some strong shooting and rebounding, but Kevin Durant has been fantastic for Golden State. This sequence here was particularly great. First, he easily swatted Clint Capela, a center, then ran down the floor and made this silly pass to Dra...
Charles Barkley Doesn't Like How The Warriors Play "Little Girly Basketball"
Charles Barkley’s role on Inside the NBA is to spout unfiltered takes and tell viewers how the NBA is stupid now because nobody punches each other. Occasionally he lays down a good take but, more often than not, he grumbles out crotchety opinions about back in the day and straddles the border betwee...
