Kevin Hayes Will Finish When He's Damn Well Ready

Evil Troll Spirits Invade Body Of Basel Keeper
Hm. We were giving Basel keeper Tomáš Vaclík the benefit of the doubt earlier, when he was frozen stiff by this nasty free kick, but judging from whatever's going on in that GIF above he might actually not be in control of his own body....

Ángel Di María Gets Ice Grill, Then Red Card For Grabbing Ref
About a minute before the GIF you see above, referee Michael Oliver gave Manchester United's Ángel Di María a yellow card for an obvious dive. Frustrated and angry, Di María decided to snatch at the back of the ref's shirt, demanding an explanation. That's when Oliver pierces Di María's soul with th...
Daylight Savings Should Be Made Permanent
You know what was awesome? Yesterday. Yesterday was the first Daylight Savings day of the year, and the first Daylight Savings day of the year always feels like someone released you from a Siberian prison. The sun shone gold upon the melting snow. Children frolicked out on the street. Neighbors...
Steph Curry Is Beyond Reproach
Steph Curry’s statistical output from his last two games isn’t anything to freak out over—22 points and seven assists against Dallas on Friday, followed by 12 points in four assists against the Clips on Sunday—but in each of those games he made plays that should have led anyone who saw them to one c...
Man Crossed Over So Hard His Teammate Feels It
We've covered the exploits of the streetballer known as Hot Sauce before, and judging from this recent clip, he clearly hasn't lost his touch at hitting defenders with mean crossovers. That crossover was so vicious, the poor kid's teammate felt it. Look at him fall over!...
Gonzalo Higuaín Forgets He's Really Good, Bungles Really Easy Goal
In a season where Phillip Hofmann committed this crime against finishing, it would take a special bit of incompetence to snatch away the award of Miss Of The Season. This is not that. It is, however, a really bad effort from a really good player, making it particularly embarrassing in its own righ...
Penn State's D.J. Newbill Hits Buzzer-Beater With Hand All In His Face
D.J. Newbill might not be a household name, nor will he likely become one during the coming NCAA Tournament his Nittany Lions probably won't make, but he is the Big Ten's leading scorer and is capable of moments like this buzzer-beating three that gave Penn State the win over Minnesota....

No Big Deal, Just Stephen Curry Dishing Another Unbelievable Pass
Stephen Curry completes passes that nobody else even thinks of. A fake behind-the-back to offhand wraparound pass isn't something you see every day, or any day.

E'Twaun Moore Buries Thunder With Game-Winning Three
Here's a fun look at E'Twaun Moore's three-pointer with two seconds left to beat the Thunder, which featured a cool play where the ball was inbounded to Pau Gasol in the post, and immediately thrown back out to an open Moore. That's Russell Westbrook—who stepped out of bounds on the ensuing possessi...
David Schlemko Scores Silky Smooth Shootout Goal
The Bruins and Flames had to go to the eighth round of the shootout to find a winner, but what a winner it was. Defenseman David Schlemko—who the Flames just claimed on waivers—pulled a nice little do-si-do that completely fooled Tuukka Rask, and secured both points for the Flames. Just look at that...
Hassan Whiteside Just Won't Quit
There has been no stranger story in the NBA this year than the rise of Hassan Whiteside, the 25-year-old center who spent the last two seasons playing for the Sichuan Blue Whales, Al Mouttahed Tripoli, and Jiangsu Tongxi—making the trip back to China after being released by Tripoli—and now won't s...
