This Atlantic 10 Tournament Game Had One Of The Craziest Endings You'll Ever See
Shit got weird at the end of the Charlotte-Richmond game today.

Henry sank the first...

"He's Playing A Different Game Than Most Other Humans": Ricky Rubio Goes Behind-The-Back Twice For A Layup
This goes down as just two points, Ricky Rubio cutting to the basket and metaphorically pantsing Patty Mills and Aron Baynes in quick succession. But it's a pretty good microcosm of what he's capable of on his best nights: "making art," as the announcer says. Hang this opus in the MIA, because last ...

This Is Why Giving Gatorade Baths Indoors Is A Bad Idea
Not only did the Lady Knights fail to properly douse their coach in Gatorade after winning an NJCA district qualifying game, they placed him squarely atop a liquid death trap. At least they had enough sense to retreat from the puddle, unlike the would-be hero who comes dashing down from the bleache...
Russell Westbrook Throws Up A Half-Court Shot That Is Total Nonsense
He was clearly trying to draw a foul here, and although he may have actually succeeded—Gary Neal's hands were right on Westbrook's chest when the shot went up—this shot was ill-advised. You can't really expect the referee to be ready to call a foul on a half-court shot with 18 seconds left on the s...

This DeAndre Jordan Alley-Oop Is Disgusting And We Should All Just Go To Bed Now
Honestly, this is just ridiculous. Chris Paul, from essentially the three point line, tosses an alley-oop that Deandre Jordan catches in the middle of the key and, well, yeah. It was authoritative, let’s say....
There Were A Whole Lot Of Hearts Broken In The Horizon League Tournament Last Night
Yesterday's Horizon League semifinal games were fucking nuts. The above video is from the first matchup, a tightly defended contest between second-seed Detroit and the third seed, Wright State. Both teams were tied at 54 with five seconds left when Wright State's Miles Dixon drove the ball from th...
Buzzer-Beater Celebration Runs Over Recently Vanquished, Mascot Tries To Console Him
As far as buzzer-beaters go, this is OK, I guess. Nothing quite like last week's, but still: it's a buzzer-beater. On Saturday, Batavia picked off Olean in the New York Class B western regional on a mad-dash last possession ending in a desperation three. What makes this one special is how the shot...
