Draymond Green Finally Gets T-Shirt Revenge On LeBron, Gets Owned Anyway [Update]
The last time the Warriors won a title (the year before they blew a 3-1 lead in the NBA Finals), Draymond Green got tipsy at the team’s victory parade in Oakland. He mocked the Cleveland Cavaliers by rapping “Cavaliers? Nope. We won? Yupp. They suck? Yupp. We here? Yupp. They not? Nooope.”...

Kyrie Irving Dribbled Away LeBron James's Moment
With under a minute to play in last night’s Game 3 of the NBA Finals and the Cleveland Cavaliers leading 113-111, Golden State’s Kevin Durant calmly stepped into and nailed a long three-pointer right over LeBron James’s outstretched hand.

The Warriors Deserve Your Awe
I won’t argue that the first two games of these NBA Finals were great television, or that last night’s Game 3, which was thrilling and spectacularly played and felt like a Game 7 from the perspective of someone rooting for the Cavs, did a whole lot to salvage this series. The Warriors are now up 3-0...

LeBron Is Not Enough
Remember the 2015 Finals? Kyrie Irving got injured, Kevin Love missed the whole series, and so LeBron James had to take the court with the likes of Matthew Dellavedova on a coffee binge, an empty bag of Lay’s chips, a childhood stuffed animal, and a rock he found out in the parking lot.
