Toronto Maple Leafs Lose, WAGs Exchange Death Eyes
This may take a bit of explaining, but stick with us, it is the best. The blonde to the right there is Hockey Queen Elisha Cuthbert. She is currently engaged to Maple Leafs captain Dion Phaneuf.

So Maybe Dan Le Batard Wasn't The Guy Who Snubbed LeBron For MVP [Post Corrected]
UPDATE: OK, it appears we screwed up and jumped the gun. Dan Le Batard has yet to confirm or deny what player he voted for regular season MVP, or whether or not he even had a vote. We've just gotten word that he didn't vote for Anthony, and we sent Le Batard an email for comment, so let's see what h...

LeBron's Fourth MVP Is Pushing Him Into Ludicrous Territory
Reports are swarming that LeBron James will be named the NBA’s MVP for the fourth time in the past five seasons. Somehow this makes Derrick Rose’s 2011 MVP — the only blemish in that stretch for LeBron — seem all the more impressive, if all the more anomalous. Only four other players (Kareem Abdul-J...

How Frank Isola Became The Most Hated Man At Madison Square Garden

Kevin Durant Finds That Life Without Russell Westbrook Isn't Much Fun
Comebacks from a 3-0 deficit have been done in hockey, and in baseball, but never in the NBA.

LeBron James Makes His Teammates Do Pushups
Perhaps Mario Chalmers and Ray Allen thought LeBron was joking when he told them they would be doing pushups if they lost a shooting competition to him. He was not joking. LeBron's drill-sergeant cadence could use a little work, though. There's not nearly enough spittle flying here. ...

Report: James Dolan Fired A Security Guard Who Didn't Recognize Him Because James Dolan Is Awful
Knicks owner James Dolan is an asswipe and a schmuck, and according to the New York Post, he is also a giant asshole. A source tells the Post that this past Sunday, Dolan was denied access into the Delta Sky 360 club in Madison Square Garden by security guard Fiordaliza Hernandez because Dolan didn'...

Jeremy Evans Was Still Beyond The Arc When This Oop Was Alleyed
Jeremy Evans got into the Jazz's 112-102 win over Portland for all of three minutes, but he made it count. Both he and Jamaal Tinsley were still in three-point territory when Tinsley let fly with a no-look lob to the streaking Evans, who won the 2012 dunk contest and came in second this season....
