Was That A Goaltend? Let's Check In With Jeff Hornacek
Before his fourth ejection of the season, Kevin Durant notched a nice block in the Warriors’ 123-111 win over the Knicks. Or did he? Courtney Lee’s floater sure seemed to be on the way down. After Steph drilled a three in transition, coach Jeff Hornacek offered his nuanced take on the ball’s traject...
Kevin Durant Says He Got Ejected Because Ref Had An "Attitude" And Was "In His Feelings"
The NBA continues to be cranky as hell. Last night Kevin Durant got ejected again, for the fourth time this season, late in the Warriors’ 123-112 win over the Knicks. Then in his post-match presser, he called out referee James Williams by name for targeting him....
Clint Capela, High On Victory, Utters One Sentence Too Many
The Rockets are very good. They’ve got an insane wealth of shooting; they’ve got a deep supply of versatile wings; they’ve got more than enough off-the-bounce shot-creating; they’ve got strong, useful pick-and-roll bigs; they’ve got two of the, oh, six or seven best players in the entire Western Con...
James Harden Gobbled Up Steph Curry, And It Was Wonderful
The Rockets prevailed over the Warriors Saturday night in a game that featured Houston pulling out to a big early lead, the Warriors surging back in the third quarter, and then an odd and awkward cold finish by the visitors that allowed James Harden to pull some late game magic and bring home the vi...
Steph Curry Seems Upset
The Bulls went into halftime with a three-point advantage over the Warriors, and besides Jordan Bell getting dunked off the court with a sprained ankle, a few other embarrassing things have gone wrong for Steph Curry’s team so far this evening....
Robin Lopez's Dunk Put Jordan Bell In A Wheelchair
Jordan Bell’s first start of the month started in the cruelest way possible.

The Warriors Still Look Unstoppable

Playing in Ohio for their final scheduled meeting with the Cavs this season, the Warriors calmly took care of a Cleveland team that put up perhaps the...
Ah Geez, Steph Curry Sprained His Ankle Again
It wasn’t so long ago that Steph Curry’s ankles were an existential threat to his career. They were constantly giving out and forcing Curry to miss significant playing time with sprains. But then a successful surgery and an improved training regimen helped him shed the “injury-prone” label, and he b...
Does Drake Have Steph Curry And Kevin Durant's Numbers Tattooed On His Arm?
ESPN editor Jovan Buha noticed something intriguing today: Drake has the numbers 30 and 35, the numbers that Steph Curry and Kevin Durant wear, tattooed on his left arm. The initial photo, taken of Drake playing basketball in a LeBron James high school jersey of all things, was not entirely clear, t...
Nikola Jokic In Peak Form Is Still A Great Time
The Nuggets’ doughy centerpiece Nikola Jokic found himself in a mild slump to start off the new year, averaging just 10 points on 34 percent shooting through his first three games. Last night he posted a restorative 22 points, 11 assists, 12 rebounds, three steals, and a block in a loss to Golden St...
Steph Curry Went Absolutely Bonkers On The Clippers
By now, Steph Curry highlights are sort of redundant. His very way of playing is a highlight reel: he uses darting dribble moves to create space to launch bombs from insane distances; he plays high-stakes, gambling defense; nearly every pass he throws is a slick no-look job. That’s how you turn a re...

Warriors Beat Cavs After Repeated No-Calls On Fouls Against LeBron James

Nick Young Finds The Outer Limit Of The Pump Fake
Nick Young’s shooting form is just a bit outside the realm of what most would dub conventional, to say nothing of the times and places that he chooses to take his shots. He has a high release point, though he attains that altitude by jerking his body over to the left and casting the ball out relativ...
Steph Curry Out For At Least Two Weeks With Sprained Ankle
