The Finals Are Butt And I'm So Mad At The Cavs
First things first: They get no credit for making the Finals. LeBron James could win three playoff series in the East with any four Supreme Court justices as his running mates. Account for that, and what have these bozos contributed to the effort?...

Hmmmmmm. LeBron James And Kyrie Irving Sent Some Cryptic Tweets. Hmmmmmmm.

Kyrie Irving Says He Got Bed Bugs At A Supposedly Haunted Oklahoma City Hotel
In the course of beating the Oklahoma City Thunder last night, the Cleveland Cavaliers stayed at the Skirvin Hilton, a hotel supposedly haunted by a maid who committed suicide decades ago.

John Wall Is Pretty Grumpy About Kyrie Irving Leading Him In All-Star Votes
All-star fan voting almost never results in an accurate representation of the most worthy players.

Kyrie Irving is sl...

The Cavs And Kyrie Irving Seem To Disagree On His Injury
This Kyrie Irving injury is especially frustrating because, for his 44 minutes on the court, he looked great.

Kyrie Irving Made Timofey Mozgov's Job Very Easy
Cavs center Timofey Mozgov scored 17 points on 7-of-8 shooting while playing just 17 minutes in last night's rout of the Nets. That's an efficient-ass game! He's got Kyrie Irving, who set up five of those seven made buckets with some beautiful passing, to thank for it....
Kyrie Irving Unleashes All Hell In The Perfect Meaningless Game
San Antonio isn't usually a place for mid-March NBA thrills. Oh, the latter-day Spurs remain perfectly capable of playing the sort of gyroscoping, pinball-passing game pretty enough to goose Red Auerbach's carcass from 6 to 12, but it's very a long season and a very old team and while you can usuall...
Kyrie Irving Hits Buzzer-Beating Three To Force Overtime

Kyrie Irving Drops 55 Points, Hits Game-Winning Walk-Up Three
Maybe the Cavaliers are the pretty good team we all thought they would be and not actually doomed? Since LeBron James returned from his injury two weeks ago he has looked like the LeBron we knew—and not the broken down, maybe past his prime LeBron we'd seen previously this season—in leading the Ca...
