Shawn Thornton Fined For Spraying P.K. Subban With Water During Game
When Corey Perry filled Jeff Carter's glove with water during a break last week, it was cute. Shawn Thornton's spraying of Montreal's P.K. Subban last night was more dickish than cheeky, and he paid for it....
Martin St. Louis Plays After Mother's Death
Soon after landing in Pittsburgh on Thursday, Martin St. Louis learned that his mother had unexpectedly died from a heart attack. St. Louis flew back to New York to meet up with his family, and then flew to Montreal to be with his father. He then flew back to Pittsburgh on Friday and played in New Y...

The Habs Gave Away The Series In The Name Of Toughness
This was a game the Canadiens 100 percent needed to win, so of course they handed major and crucial minutes to the league's single worst defenseman—all in the pursuit of toughness, naturally—and watched as he gave the game away....
There Was A Snake In The Blazers' Locker Room Before Tonight's Game
The Portland Trail Blazers discovered an unpleasant surprise in the AT&T Center locker room before Game 2 against the Spurs....
Holy Shit, Durant And Westbrook
KD and Russ are the best and we love them and they're very fun to watch, sure. But this is preposterous. This is obscene. From Elias Sports: ...
A Fishing Trip Fixed Roy Hibbert
Roy Hibbert, who recently transformed from an all-pro center into the NBA's biggest and suckiest punching bag, somehow managed to stop sucking last night. In 33 minutes against the Wizards, Hibbert scored 28 points and grabbed 10 rebounds and once again started looking like a functional basketball p...
Now <em>That</em> Was A Russell Westbrook Game
If any player in the NBA can accurately be described as basketball cocaine, it's Russell Westbrook. When things go badly, like they did when he shot 9-of-26 in Game 3 against Memphis, he can make you regret that you ever even considered him a viable source of fun. But when things go right, like they...
Experience An NBA Playoff Pregame From The Eyes Of A Drunk Person
OK, this video's actually just useless additional footage from TNT's online feed, but if we use our imagination, we're watching the Clippers-Thunder introductions from a very drunk fan's point of view. Damn, how'd you put down that much before the game even started? Please don't puke....
Newspaper Headline: "Heat Cut Nuts"
Playing against the Heat sounds like no fun at all....
Sidney Crosby Finally Scored. Will Rick Nash Before It's Too Late?
When Sidney Crosby scored early in the second period last night, his reaction was noteworthy. Here was the best player in the world celebrating a breakaway goal like someone who hadn't done this in the playoffs 40 previous times....
Chris Paul Reminds Us Who The Point God Is
The real bummer about last night's game between the Thunder and Clippers is that it turned into a blowout fairly quickly, and not just because blowouts suck. See, if the Thunder had managed to keep it close, Chris Paul probably would have dropped 60 on those suckers....
Down With NBA Playoff Color-Outs
Whoa, hey, the paperback edition of Someone Could Get Hurt drops today, so if you were too cheap to spring for a hardcover last spring (and you were; I've seen the royalty statements), now you can buy it on the cheap. Everyone wins when you give me your money....
Gilbert Arenas Lives To Hate On Roy Hibbert
Roy Hibbert pooped the bed again last night, failing to score a single point or pull down a single rebound in 18 minutes against the Wizards. Watching Roy Hibbert play like shit for the last eight games has been the most depressing thing about these playoffs, but his struggles have also brought a gr...
Blake Griffin Baits Serge Ibaka Into A Technical Foul
Griffin and Ibaka have a history that includes Ibaka smoking Griffin in the nuts, but this one is all Griffin. After being knocked down on the baseline, Griffin acts the role of pest and definitely locks up Ibaka's leg and practically begs him to lash out, or fall. Ibaka lashed out and was charged w...
Crossbar Keeps Rangers Scoreless; Marc-André Fleury Shows It Some Love
The Rangers have hit the post or crossbar three times tonight, and remain scoreless through most of two periods. The Penguins have done it twice, but they've also hit the net twice for a 2-0 lead. After Mats Zuccarello hit the crossbar halfway through the second period, a thankful Fleury was seen ru...
Mike Tirico Raps About Drake, Achieves Supreme Dadness
It's not the rapping that makes Mike Tirico the biggest dad to have ever dadded in this clip, it's the ensuing faux-embarrassment, the point-by-point explanation of his joke, and the gleeful mention of his son and whatever extracurricular activity that son is currently engaged in. That's what we ca...
How Rick Carlisle Turned The Misfit, Mismatched Mavs Into Contenders
The Mavericks got clobbered in yesterday's Game 7 against San Antonio, but just being there was a minor miracle in itself. Here's Brett Koremenos's breakdown on how this mismatched Mavs roster took the invincible Spurs to 7. ...
