Russell Westbrook MVP Truthers Are Truly Around The Bend
If I weren’t a basketball fan—if you aren’t one right now—basketblogging, I swear, would itself be an insurmountable barrier to entry. Cricket has incomprehensible structure; baseball has interminable periods of non-action; basketball has a breathtakingly pretentious universe of bloggers and Twitte...
Jordan Clarkson Was Salty About Dario Saric's Very Soft Dunk
In the closing seconds of the Sixers’ 108-97 win over the Cavaliers, Dario Saric laid down a dunk against some half-hearted defense when Philly could’ve dribbled out the rest of the game clock. It made Cleveland’s Jordan Clarkson angry enough to toss the ball at the back of the Philly forward. Who k...
Quick, Everybody Freak Out About This LeBron James Instagram Post
For true lovers of drama, last night’s game between the Cavaliers and Sixers could not have been timed any better. After a week’s worth of speculation about LeBron James possibly choosing to sign with Philadelphia this summer, the Sixers came into Cleveland and gave The King a pretty enticing previe...
How, LeBron?
Every night LeBron James plays a basketball game, there is a strong probability he does something you’ve never seen a human being do before. So here’s one of those things. ...
Which Was Longer: James Harden's Staredown Or Tom Brady's Kiss With His Son?
Everyone had a hearty chuckle (or gasped in horror) as James Harden extracted Wesley Johnson’s soul with a crossover last night, but The Outline’s Jeremy Gordon had an offhand joke that made us think. He said Harden’s staredown of Johnson was longer than Tom Brady’s definitely normal lips-on-lips ki...
James Harden On Why He Stared At The Lifeless Pile Of Flesh That Used To Be Wesley Johnson: "I Was Trying To Figure Out What He Was Doing"
James Harden did one of the meanest things you’ll ever see in a basketball game last night, when he crossed Wesley Johnson into the floor and then just stood there, for what felt like an eternity, and stared at Johnson before eventually splashing a three. Harden was asked about the long stare after ...
James Harden Breaks Wesley Johnson's Ankles, Soul, Spirit
Wesley Johnson’s poor ankles went the way of all flesh tonight, sadly before their time. James Harden—who provided half of the Rockets’ scoring in a 34-point first quarter—was responsible:...
LeBron James Doesn't Think The NCAA's Flaws Can Be Fixed
LeBron James, the greatest basketball player ever not to play college hoops, spoke up about the very stupid FBI investigation that has currently engulfed the sport. While James didn’t play college ball, he dipped his toe in the recruiting process and has firsthand experience with its shady side. His...
James Wisniewski Thinks Team USA Has NHL-Caliber Talent
PYEONGCHANG, South Korea—Without any NHL players participating in the Olympics this year for the first time since 1994, the level of play in Pyeongchang is simply not what it’s been at previous Winter Games. Obviously, no team is as handicapped by this decision as the U.S. The roster that includes j...
"Shut Up And Dribble."
Laura Ingraham says basketballers should stick to their sport and keep their opinions to themselves. Here, then, are some examples of her employer believing otherwise:...

Fox News Host Laura Ingraham Blows The Dog Whistle On LeBron James [Updated]
Laura Ingraham is a Fox News personality whose job is to say nice things about Donald Trump and generally seem kind of impatient, a job that she carries off while exuding all the charisma and personal warmth of a clenched butt cheek. Last night, during her show Laura Ingraham Would Like To Speak To ...
The Revamped Cavs Won Again And LeBron James Lost His Voice Again
The new-look Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Oklahoma City Thunder 120-112 on Tuesday, two days after stomping the Celtics in their first game with a new roster, thanks to, apparently, LeBron James yelling instructions at his teammates....
Boy, The New-Look Cavs Sure Beat The Living Shit Out Of The Celtics
Sunday’s result should not be read as the Celtics are fake or the Cavs are better than the Celtics or the Celtics are doomed in the playoffs, although I dearly wish for all three of those things to be true. But it seems reasonable to say that the Celtics, who’ve had the NBA’s best defense this seaso...
Maybe Now The Cavs Can Just Let LeBron Cook?
The Cavs did well at the trade deadline, shipping off several of their worst defensive players and returning a group of guys who seem better suited to playing alongside LeBron, for however long he’ll be around. LeBron himself said the changes “should be fun,” which probably means nothing but certain...
The Cavs Are Getting Pretty Much Everyone The Fuck Out Of Here<em></em>
Not only have the Cavaliers given Isaiah Thomas and Channing Frye the boot today, but they’re now trading four more players. (Yes, “the Cavaliers” can reasonably be interpreted as “LeBron James.”) Adios to Jae Crowder, Derrick Rose, Iman Shumpert, and Dwyane Wade. There goes a third of the roster....
Report: Cavaliers Get Isaiah Thomas The Fuck Out Of Here<em></em>
After just 15 games as an active member of the Cavaliers, Isaiah Thomas is on his way out of Cleveland. ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported this morning that the Cavs were acquiring Jordan Clarkson and Larry Nance from the Lakers, with the Ringer’s Kevin O’Connor first reporting that Isaiah Thomas an...
LeBron Puts Together Goddamn Ridiculous Final 30 Seconds For Cavaliers Win
Tonight’s Timberwolves-Cavaliers game was stupidly fun on several fronts—an NBA record 40 three-pointers, for one thing; a total of 34 lead changes, for another—but the fact that it ended with an insane series of LeBron James plays, each more dazzling than the last, was maybe the most fun of all. ...
The Cavs Are In A Very Dark Place
The Cleveland Cavaliers, who stink real bad, lost to the Rockets in embarrassing fashion last night, by a score of 120-88. A 32-point blowout on national TV is about as bad as it gets, and the Cavs gave no indication that they are in any kind of shape to dig themselves out of this hole....
