Steph Curry Gave LeBron James The Runaround
It’s sort of hard to crystallize a Warriors attack that could only be described as “relentless”—in both games so far, the Cavs have survived for a half, then understandably given way under a barrage that just doesn’t let up, and comes from so many different angles. (Seriously, how many times did a C...

Stephen Curry Beating LeBron James, In Extreme Slow Motion
Boy, this was fun to watch, wasn’t it? ...

Coworker, Athletes Give Jason Whitlock Shit For Criticizing LeBron On Racism<em></em>
Jason Whitlock, a Fox Sports 1 employee whose purpose is to make Colin Cowherd look somehow pleasant by comparison, had quite an angle on police reports that a racist slur was spray-painted on LeBron James’s Los Angeles home. The All Takes Matter host called it a “disrespectful inconvenience” for Ja...

No Mistakes Allowed
Close one eye and squint with the other, and last night’s Game 1 box score starts to look like a positive one for the Cavaliers: The Warriors only had two players score in double figures; Klay Thompson and Draymond Green combined to shoot 6-of-28; LeBron James and Kyrie Irving did their thing. Open ...

An NBA Finals Preview For People Who Want LeBron To Dunk The Warriors To The Core Of The Earth<em></em>
It’s that time of year again: 364 days and 23 hours since the end of the conference finals, the NBA Finals are here! The brave Cleveland Cavaliers will seek to defend their championship from the vile and heavily favored Golden State Warriors, whom they vanquished in last season’s Finals by coming ba...

LeBron James On Racist Graffiti At His House: "No Matter How Famous You Are...Being Black In America Is Tough"
Police are investigating a racial slur spray painted this morning on the front gate of a Los Angeles house owned by LeBron James, who prepares for tomorrow’s Game 1 of the NBA Finals. At his press conference this afternoon, James addressed the incident for the first time....

LeBron James Took Care Of Business
The Cavaliers had zero interest in prolonging what’s seemed to be inevitable since Game 1 here, if not since Game 1 of the regular season. They were going to win the Eastern Conference Finals, and they didn’t want to have to go back to Cleveland to do it—and no one seemed to feel that more strongly ...

LeBron, NOOOOO
In the third quarter of Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals, Kevin Love heaved an incredible outlet pass the length of the court to a waiting LeBron James, who reared back for dunk, ready to shatter the backboard, and then doinged it off the rim....

Kevin Love Threw A Perfect Touchdown Pass
Hi, did you watch Game 3? We all definitely did. I’m sure you did too. So there’s no need for you to watch these replays of Kevin Love’s full-court outlet pass to LeBron James, which you are totally not seeing for the first time. (And don’t sleep on James’s box-out of Marcus Smart; Smart had no opti...

The Cavaliers Brought Total Ruination Upon The Celtics
The Cavaliers scored the first six points of last night’s Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Things only got much, much, much worse for the Celtics. By the end of the first quarter, the game had all the markings of a massacre; by the end of the second, it was historic. LeBron James was his bes...

J.R. Smith Finishes Off Cavs' Historic <em></em>First-Half Blowout With Incredible Buzzer-Beater
Isaiah Thomas insisted yesterday that the Cavs are “not the Monstars.” A 72-31 first half decapitation sure would seem to disagree with his assessment. LeBron James was transparently fucking around, playing center for long stretches and ripping through the Celtics like cheap toilet paper for 22 poin...

I'm Still Laughing At That LeBron James Performance
It didn’t take long for LeBron James to demonstrate just how little of a chance the Boston Celtics have at advancing to the NBA Finals. After getting his first two buckets of the night by blowing right by Jae Crowder—exactly the kind of brawny forward people have spent years tricking themselves into...

LeBron And The Cavs Broke The Celtics
Somehow, Marcus Smart, Kelly Olynyk, and Avery Bradley were not enough to stop the Cleveland Cavaliers or even slow them down very much. The final score was not that imposing, as the Cavs won just 117-104, but Cleveland emotionally disemboweled the Celtics early and turned the entire second half int...

Seems Like LeBron Is Ready For The Finals
LeBron James spent the first half of Game 1 destroying the Celtics. He was the best player on the court to such a comical degree, and watching him and the Cavs roll through the weak-ass Celtics was like watching an older sibling pull the “Stop hitting yourself!” routine. LeBron went for 23 points, f...

Reports: Cop Who Tackled James Blake Won't Go To Trial
The New York City police officer who tackled former tennis pro James Blake because he thought Blake was someone else won’t have a public disciplinary trial, according to multiple reports. Officer James Frascatore’s disciplinary trial on a charge of excessive force was scheduled to start yesterday, b...

Seriously, What The Hell Happened To James Harden?
It’s so rare that a star athlete puts forward such an unbelievably bad performance in a big game that observers immediately start reaching for out-there theories to explain what they are seeing, but what are we supposed to do with this?...

James Harden Comes To Houston To Watch Rockets Take On Spurs
Kawhi Leonard didn’t play for the Spurs tonight, and it ultimately didn’t matter too much. Jonathon Simmons started in his stead and rose to the occasion, scoring 18, while LaMarcus Aldridge led the team with 34 and San Antonio cruised to an easy 114-75 win along with a Western Conference Finals ber...

The Sabres Will "Host" The Rangers In The NYC Winter Classic For A Specific Tax Purpose
The NHL announced Tuesday that the Sabres and Rangers will play the 2018 NHL Winter Classic at the Mets’ stadium in Queens. Despite the fact that the Sabres reside hundreds of miles away in Buffalo while the Rangers are only a borough away, the Sabres will be the “home team.” The NHL said that the d...

The FBI Was Never Going To Save The Republic You Dolt<em></em>
A few minutes ago, this blog post was very long. I’d been working on it all day! It was like 1,200 words long and I wasn’t half finished. Then I deleted all that shit, because actually, what’s true and worth saying about Donald Trump’s surprise firing of FBI director James Comey is pretty simple....
