Khris Middleton Beats Suns With Contested, Game-Winning Three
Down one to the Phoenix Suns with under four seconds remaining, Bucks forward Khris Middleton hit this contested game-winner to send the surprising Bucks to 13-12.

Wizards Win On Bradley Beal Alley-Oop Layup With 0.8 Seconds Left
Bradley Beal still looks a bit off after missing the first three weeks of the season with a fractured wrist, but this is sure to raise his spirits. The Wizards entered the fourth quarter down eight to the Magic, but a furious rally led by John Wall tied the game on Rasual Butler's free throw with 16...

Blake Griffin Was His Old Bad-Ass Self Last Night
One of the crappier things about the early part of this NBA season is that for much of it, Blake Griffin hasn't really looked like Blake Griffin. Too many Clippers games have seen Griffin floating around the perimeter, turning in uninspiring performances heavy on the mid-range jumpers and light on t...

Kemba Walker Made The Block Of Your Dreams
So this happened on Friday night, but I feel compelled to draw your attention to it now, because this right here is the exact block that anyone who's ever played even a minute of organized basketball has dreamt of making. ...

South Africa is lousy with baboons (who will totally just fuck your shit up), so when you're playing golf there, like Luke Donald is this weekend, you gotta be ready for a baboon to just roll up on you....

It's So Fun To Watch Kyrie Irving Make People Look Dumb
Last night's nationally televised game between the Cavaliers and the Knicks was pretty stinky. 'Melo couldn't get a bucket, LeBron was still in "Hey, uh, what the hell is going on with LeBron?" mode, and the whole game had the feel of two middling Eastern conference teams blindly flailing at each ...

John Wall Destroyed The Lakers Last Night
Kobe Bryant and Nick Young hit a bunch of fluky long jumpers in a row during the second quarter of the Lakers' game in DC last night; with around six minutes left in the half they led by 11 points, and if you saw the score (47-36) crawl across the bottom of your screen just then, you might've though...

Monta Ellis's Game-Winning Buzzer-Beater Was Bananas
I think it's time to admit that there probably isn't another player in the NBA who is better at hitting reckless, off-balance buzzer-beaters than Monta Ellis. Almost two years after hitting a game-winner so absurd that Ellis himself had to flee from it, the Mavericks shooting guard once again did hi...

Video Evidence That We're All Just Living In J.J. Watt's World
This week's episode of Inside the NFL featured a mic'd up J.J. Watt stomping around, talking shit, and wreaking havoc during last Sunday's game against the Titans.

Kendrick Perkins Attempted To Post Up Anthony Davis. Try Not To Laugh.
Kendrick Perkins is an anthropomorphic pumpjack that somebody taught to play basketball. Anthony Davis is an unofficial member of the Avengers. This is what happens when the former tries to shoot over the latter in the post....

Ha Ha Clinton-Dix Learns Painful Lesson About Tackling Rob Gronkowski
Packers safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix is a rookie, and he still has many lessons to learn about how to survive in the NFL. He received an important bit of knowledge during Sunday's game against the Patriots, though: Unless you are, I don't know, J.J. Watt or the Incredible Hulk, don't ever try to tackle ...

Andre Miller Throws Some Classic Old-Man Game At The Heat, Scores
Andre Miller is 941 years old and has been in the NBA longer than it has existed; his first career assist, as a matter of fact, was a pocket bounce-pass to a rolling Chester Arthur for a two-handed jam. In all the years since, Gramps has learned a few tricks to augment his nonexistent athleticism, ...

Odell Beckham Jr. Continues To Be A Superhuman
We already knew that Odell Beckham Jr. is a mutant who possesses the ability to make catches that mere mortals can only dream about, but we didn't know that he could also do stuff like this:...

Gerald Green Throws Off-The-Backboard Alley-Oop To Himself, In Traffic
Gerald Green has established himself as the new era's human highlight reel, and tonight against the Magic he performed yet another of his miraculous stunts: an alley-oop, off the glass, to himself in the half-court offense. (This is more an indictment of the Magic than a celebration of Green's skill...
