Magic Johnson Wants To Assure You He Won't Be Tampering During His Potential Offseason Workouts With Ben Simmons
After the Lakers’ front office, LeBron James and Klutch Sports were thoroughly embarrassed by the Pelicans at this year’s trade deadline, one would think it’d be wise for all those involved to maybe take a step back when questions about players from other teams come up. Unfortunately for Magic Johns...
Zion Williamson Temporarily Activates His Flying Abilities To Bash Three-Point Shot Into Crowd
In Duke’s 81-71 win over Virginia on Saturday, Zion Williamson had once again used his athletic ability to create a jaw-dropping highlight that still can’t fully be explained over 12 hours later.

The NBA's Anti-Tanking Reform For Sure Hasn't Solved Sucking

Bengals Coach Zac Taylor Hires O-Line Coach Who Was Involved In Dolphins Bullying Scandal
It didn’t take long for Richie Incognito to find another gig in the NFL after he was released by the Dolphins in 2013 for bullying and racially abusing former teammate Jonathan Martin.

Tom Wilson Got Brutal Revenge For A Dirty Hit By Ian Cole
This guy again, huh? Yeah. It had been by my count a little over three weeks since Capitals violence-lover Tom Wilson last dropped the gloves, so he must have been just twitching from withdrawal, aching to go out and throw some haymakers at an opponent. It was Colorado Avalanche defenseman Ian Cole ...
Lakers Recover Some Dignity With A Dramatic Road Win Over The Dreaded Celtics
As fun as it always is when the Celtics lose at home, it’s even more amusing when the loss is to their historic rivals from Los Angeles. Thursday night’s game improved even on that scenario, with the Lakers reeling after spending the last week or so in trade deadline hell, and the Celtics riding hig...
You're Not Going To Believe This, But Ernie Grunfeld Said Something Very Dumb To Defend His Very Dumb Decisions
The Wizards, in their ongoing quest to be the most irrelevant American professional sports team, have now traded away every one of their own second-round draft picks between now and 2024.

40 Years Ago, Antonio Inoki Maybe Possibly Almost Wrestled Against Idi Amin<em></em>
As a mainstream athlete, Antonio Inoki is probably best known for battling Muhammad Ali to a draw in an actual on-the-level fight—albeit one restricted by last-minute rule changes—after The Greatest backed out of plans to lose a traditional entertainment wrestling match.

The Eastern Conference Playoffs Are Going To Be Good As Hell
The Eastern Conference has been dogshit since I started watching basketball, and though the conference’s 2019 Finals participant will surely be skiing uphill in pursuit of a title, the three most significant trades of deadline week all featured Eastern Conference teams getting better by acquiring pl...

Markelle Fultz Shooting Form Update: In Peace
Honestly, yes, let this poor soul go figure out his whole deal someplace warm, somewhere nobody’s watching the basketball, where there are no point guards and no Jimmy Butlers....
Look Who's Back!
The only thing that really matters about a catchphrase is that it gets said. The repetition is the meaning. Of course, by definition, We’re Back every time a new Deadcast arrives online. This is true if it’s Marchman and me and Lauren, or if it’s Marchman and Megan and Dom, or theoretically if it wa...
One Week After Declaring They Would Not Trade Otto Porter, The Wizards Trade Otto Porter For A Pile Of Trash
Almost exactly one week ago, Wizards owner Ted Leonsis mocked the very notion of his team trading any of John Wall, Bradley Beal, or Otto Porter, describing it as essentially a wacky, unworkable, and short-sighted fan theory....
Jason Whitlock: LeBron James Is A Fraud And A Bad Leader Because He's An Only Child
LeBron James is an only child. This is a fact. Has the independence and pathological need for affirmation he picked up as an only child held him back, made him a bad teammate, and caused “organizational toxicity” at every one of his four NBA stops? If this extremely stupid question somehow seems lik...
Who's Killing The Soul Of Sneaker Culture?
PITTSBURGH — In East Liberty sits a store that never looks open. While nobody would ever admit it, it’s possible that this is a deliberate move.

The Sixers Are Going For It
The Philadelphia 76ers have acquired not-quite-all-star forward Tobias Harris from the Los Angeles Clippers, in a blockbuster trade first reported overnight by ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
