Alley-Oops Are The Best Inbounds Plays
If last night saw the nadir in inbounds plays, tonight presents the zenith. A nice play call saw Gerald Henderson peel around a Cody Zeller screen unguarded, and help defender Marcin Gortat was only able to react in time to foul Henderson, not prevent the alley-oop. This is how all inbounds play...

Don't Stand In The Way When Le'Bryan Nash Is Rumbling Down The Lane
Poster dunks are great, but inevitably that guy comes along and says, "we should cheer the guy that was willing to contest the dunk, not laugh at him." That guy is mostly just a smarmy highlight truther, but he does spout a kernel of truth. ...
Carter Hutton Preserves Win With Save Of The Year Contender
There is something in the water that is causing an epidemic of diving stick saves, and it is glorious. Here is Carter Hutton firmly declaring his candidacy for save of the year with this amazing reflexive swat, keeping Nashville's 4-3 lead intact late in the third period. ...

Basketball Hangs On Rim Forever, Delights Jeremy Lamb
Given how fast-paced and fluid basketball can be, it's always funny when some unexpected shit happens and throws off the entire rhythm of the game. That's exactly what went down during last night's game between the Thunder and Magic, when the ball just refused to let go of the rim....

Jermaine Kearse completed one of the wildest catches in Super Bowl history, one that won't be remembered due to the inexplicable decision that followed.

Tuukka Rask Makes Stunning, Sprawling Stick Save
I wish we had a close-up of Michael Grabner's face to see the disbelief that he did not score a goal spread across it. ...
Charlie Coyle Stuns Edmonton With Breakaway, Soft-Handed Goal
The body control from Charlie Coyle is my favorite part of his game-winning goal in the third period against the Oilers. His entire body is beginning to whip around the net like he's going to attempt a wraparound, but he somehow manages to tap the puck backwards and then throw his stick out to knock...
What The Hell Did Stephen Curry Just Do With This Pass?
