Jeff Van Gundy Tells Incredible O.J. Simpson Chase Story
After seeing a promo for ESPN’s upcoming O.J. Simpson documentary, Jeff Van Gundy decided the time was right to tell an incredible story about the O.J. Simpson white Bronco chase, one that he and Pat Riley apparently held onto for two decades. I don’t know that I believe it, but I desperately want t...
It's Boogie Time
Steph Curry decided this week to skip the Olympics, and this afternoon, Russell Westbrook announced he’d do the same. Team USA was already short LaMarcus Aldridge, Anthony Davis, and Chris Paul, and they’ll need the remaining candidates to step up. Who will save Team USA?...
Our Parents Like Steph Curry's Shoes
I spoke too soon when I said that only Seth Curry and my dad appreciated Steph Curry’s white-on-white Under Armour professional lawn mowing shoes. The Deadspin staff surveyed their parents, and most of them had positive reactions. ...
Everyone Hates Steph Curry's New Shoes Except For His Brother And My Dad
Although the Golden State Warriors didn’t play a game Thursday, Steph Curry still lost. Check out the “Chef” colorway for Under Armour’s Curry Two Lows.

Peja Stojakovic Was The Man
Peja Stojakovic’s 39th birthday is today. That’s a fairly arbitrary news peg, especially for a player who only made three All-Star teams and one All-NBA team, but Stojakovic is not just some Guy To Remember, a half-forgotten name to recall and then move on from....

Klay Thompson was briefly removed from Game 3 of the NBA Finals after a collision with Cavs center Timofey Mozgov left him with a contusion on his left thigh. After the game, Thompson was still annoyed about how things went down:...
What's Wrong With The Warriors? Nothing, Chill The Hell Out.
The Warriors are plenty easy to dislike. There’s Draymond. There’s the techno-libertarian scum that’s (unfairly) come to represent them. There are the moving screens. There’s Kevin Draper. There’s all the winning, which, in an NBA postseason that really hasn’t had more than a handful of entertaining...
The Cavs Knocked The Stuffing Out Of The Warriors, And We Got Ourselves A Series
The most spectacular play LeBron James made tonight was his pogo-stick leap up to grab a stray Kyrie Irving alley-oop, but if there’s one particular play that embodied the overwhelming beatdown the Cavaliers administered upon the heads of the Warriors, it was one that didn’t even count. Towards the ...
LeBron Jumped To The Moon To Slam This Alley-Oop Home
LeBron scrambled to his knees to recover this ball and ping it to Kyrie Irving, who tossed this alley-oop about three feet too high. Most humans (hell, most NBA players) wouldn’t be able to ascend, grab the wayward pass, and slam it violently into the hoop, but LeBron had no problem at all with it....
Everyone's Favorite NBA Superfan Is A Shitty Landlord
You know Jimmy Goldstein, even if you don’t know Jimmy Goldstein. He’s the crispy old man in the crazy clothes that you see sitting courtside at a seemingly impossible number of NBA games. He’s beloved by fans and players alike, and has essentially become the NBA’s hip grandpa. He is also, according...
