The Hawks-Pacers Series Is Boring, But These Dunks Are Not
Don't give a shit about who wins the first-round playoff series between the Hawks and Pacers? Don't worry, neither does anyone else. But you should give a shit about what Roy Hibbert and Gerald Green did last night. Each threw down a dunk that was more than worthy of the playoff stage....
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...
JaVale McGee Is A Big Fan Of Brazilian Girls
I really have nothing to say about this Twitter conversation that JaVale McGee just had, but it amuses me. I hope it amuses you, too....

Harrison Barnes Is Still Very Good At Dunking
We haven't really heard much from Harrison Barnes ever since he opened the season with a vicious posterization of Nikola Pekovic. But last night Barnes played the game of his career, scoring 24 points and grabbing six rebounds while playing as an undersized power forward. He also threw down this sp...
Stephen Curry Finally Makes His Playoff Splash
Last night's Warriors-Nuggets game ended the way you'd expect it to end when the Nuggets play atrocious defense and the Warriors shoot somewhere around 125 percent from the floor. But the bigger factor–bless his heart and his shaky ankles–was Stephen Curry finally getting a chance to show us what he...
The Knicks Smother The Celtics Into A Historically Bad Second Half
This one looked like the last one. The Celtics came out strong in Game 2, as they did in Game 1. Then, at halftime something happened. Maybe New York mixed up its defensive looks, or maybe Boston felt the effects of its thin roster, or maybe they just forgot how to shoot. But the Celtics once again ...
Mike Brown Is Coming Back To Cleveland
According to Yahoo's Adrian Wojnarowski, Mike Brown and the Cleveland Cavaliers are finalizing a five-year, $20 million contract that will see Brown return to the bench in the city where his head coaching career started. This comes just five months after Brown was shitcanned by the Lakers five game...
This Video Of Manny Ramirez's Latest Home Run Is Amazing In Every Way
Manny Ramirez today hit his third home run of the season for the EDA Rhinos, tying him for the league lead in the CPBL. But that's beside the point. You've got to see and hear this latest Manny blast to fully appreciate it....
LeBron James Makes His Teammates Do Pushups
Perhaps Mario Chalmers and Ray Allen thought LeBron was joking when he told them they would be doing pushups if they lost a shooting competition to him. He was not joking. LeBron's drill-sergeant cadence could use a little work, though. There's not nearly enough spittle flying here. ...
Jamal Crawford Briefly Turned Last Night's Game Into An And 1 Mixtape
Before Chris Paul sent home his miraculous, game-winning bank shot, the best thing about last night's Grizzlies-Clippers game was Jamal Crawford repeatedly putting the entire Grizzlies defense on ice skates. ...

Chris Paul Does It All Himself
Final possessions don't get more predictable. In a tie game with 13 seconds left and Clippers ball, Chris Paul was going to take the last shot. Tony Allen was going to be the one tasked with denying him. Paul's and Allen's faces in this photo, taken one second post-swish, tells the story....
Here's Chris Paul's Game-Winning Buzzer-Beater (Sort Of)
This was exciting! And then a little less exciting when, after review, they added a tenth of a second back on the game clock and made the Grizzlies heave a desperation shot that obviously missed....
C.J. Watson Hits Halftime Buzzer-Beater, Walks Off Court
He actually walked off before the shot even went in. The buzzer sounds with the ball still in the air and he just heads for the locker room. Once it goes in he hops out of the picture....

This Is The Worst Tattoo Of Nate Robinson You Will Ever See
OK, sorry, that headline is a bit sensational. Not because there might actually be a worse Nate Robinson tattoo out there, but because this is probably the only Nate Robinson tattoo that exists in the world. Anyway, holy shit, this tattoo!...
