You'll Be Able To See The Bay Bridge From Inside The Warriors' New Arena
The Warriors have released updated renderings of their potential arena on the San Francisco waterfront. It's tough to give the interior of a basketball arena much character, but if the final product looks anything like the preliminary designs, this one is going to be sweet. ...
LeBron's Fourth MVP Is Pushing Him Into Ludicrous Territory
Reports are swarming that LeBron James will be named the NBA’s MVP for the fourth time in the past five seasons. Somehow this makes Derrick Rose’s 2011 MVP — the only blemish in that stretch for LeBron — seem all the more impressive, if all the more anomalous. Only four other players (Kareem Abdul-J...

The Arizona Sundogs Enter Day 6 In Their Sky Prison

Here's Steve Nash In A Wheelchair, So Good Luck With That, Lakers Fans
We knew Steve Nash was a wreck. Injuries made him look like an old man last night, so he's getting an epidural for his <strike>hamstring</strike> back today in the hopes of playing in Game 3. He also has a bad hamstring, and nerve damage in his hip, which probably aren't good things for a basketball...
When Minor League Hockey Promotions Go Wrong
On Sunday, an Arizona minor league hockey team's owner, GM, captain, and marketing director perched themselves atop a scissor lift. They would not come down, they declared, until the team sold 300 season tickets. It has been 94 hours. The team has not sold 300 season tickets. They are still up there...
The Lakers Are Breaking Down
The Lakers lost, 102-91, to fall down 0-2 in their matchup with San Antonio. The game was unremarkable: the lead was eight at the half, 10 after the third; the Spurs were their usual, relentless, efficient selves. The Lakers were directionless, and with two more possibly significant injures, it migh...
Arsenal Fan Banned Three Years For Throwing Banana At Gareth Bale
An Arsenal supporter had his day in court this morning, about a month after hurling a banana at Tottenham star Gareth Bale during the North London Derby. I guess that's racial progress?...
Peyton Siva Learns An Important Lesson: Never Sext With Self-Proclaimed "Twitter Models"
Senior point guard Peyton Siva paced the Cardinals last night like he has all season. To go with a Big East Tournament MVP, a lovable father, and a National Championship, he can add this: he had his spot blown up by a "Twitter model" whose whole game seems to be putting athletes and rappers on blast...

Steve Nash "Knows How To Rub Off A Man"

Auto Club 400 Ends With Denny Hamlin In An Ambulance And Tony Stewart Brawling With Joey Logano [UPDATE: Now With Smoke's Profane Post-Race Interview]
Kyle Busch took the checkered flag today in California, but attention quickly turned to Denny Hamlin—whose crash sent him to the hospital and which let Busch take the lead on the final lap—and Joey Logano, who tangled with Hamlin and eventually found himself the target of Tony Stewart's fists....
The Potential New Sonics Arena Sure Would Have A Lot Of Standing Room
The optimistic Seattle ownership group led by Chris Hansen has released some mock-ups of what the interior of a new arena might look like, and huh—it looks a lot more crowded than the last time the Sonics played in Seattle....
NASCAR Fines Denny Hamlin For Criticizing Its New Car Model; Hamlin Simply Says, "I'm Not Going To Pay"
Aside from the terrifying Nationwide wreck and the hype around Danica Patrick's pole, the Daytona 500 was kind of boring. Lots of single file racing, few passes, little excitement. The afternoon saw 28 lead changes among 14 drives, down from 74 and 22 in the same race just two years ago. Worryingly,...
Have Rio's U.S. Gymnastics Darlings Already Arrived? Meet Katelyn Ohashi And Simone Biles
WORCESTER, Mass.—None of the stars from the "Fierce Five," the highly meme-able gold medal team from the London Games, competed in Worcester for the American Cup last weekend. The American Cup is the only international gymnastics competition held in the U.S., but these girls are still on the final l...
Stephen A. Smith Thinks Hockey Has Ties, Is Not As Dumb As People Who Expected Hockey Analysis From Stephen A. Smith
After weeks of increasing criticism of ESPN's less-than-comprehensive hockey coverage, the NHL finally made SportsCenter. After a 19-0-3 start, a record, the Chicago Blackhawks have finally become a "sports" thing instead of a hockey thing. But be careful what you wish for: on this morning's Sport...
The Islanders And Nassau County Are Getting Divorced, So It's Time To Pay Up
This we knew, but now things are getting ugly. Even setting aside the actual product on the ice for a moment, the recent history of the Islanders in Nassau County has been miserable. A terrible lease for a terrible arena has kept them shackled in a county that can't afford to pay for anything even ...
